level 3
an aluminium isotope has 13 protons, 13 electrons, and 14 neutrons. what is its mass number?
a. 13
b. 26
c. 27
d. 40
Q3 Solution:
Step1: Recall neutral atom electron-proton relation
In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons.
Step2: Identify proton number
The atom has 8 protons.
Step3: Determine electron number
So, the number of electrons in this neutral atom is also 8. Wait, but looking at the options (assuming the options are like A.6, B.8, C.7, D.14 from the blurred text), the correct one should match the proton number. Since protons = 8, electrons = 8.
Step1: Recall atomic number definition
Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.
Step2: Identify proton number of aluminum
The aluminum isotope has 13 protons.
Step3: Determine atomic number
So, the atomic number is equal to the number of protons, which is 13.
