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