Question

how many neutrons are in a silver (ag) atom? atomic mass = 107.868 atomic number = 47 29 61 35

Explanation:

Step1: Recall neutron - proton relationship

Neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number (approx., as atomic mass is weighted average). For simplicity, we can round atomic mass to 108.
$108 - 47$

Step2: Calculate the number of neutrons

$108-47 = 61$

Answer:

61
