The correct Answer is:
To find the relationship between the mass number (A), atomic number (Z), and the number of neutrons (N), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Definitions**: - The **mass number (A)** is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. - The **atomic number (Z)** is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. - The **number of neutrons (N)** can be calculated by subtracting the number of protons from the mass number. 2. **Establishing the Relationship**: - The relationship can be expressed mathematically as: \[ A = Z + N \] - Here, A is the mass number, Z is the atomic number, and N is the number of neutrons. 3. **Rearranging the Equation**: - To find the number of neutrons (N), we can rearrange the equation: \[ N = A - Z \] 4. **Conclusion**: - The relationship between mass number (A), atomic number (Z), and number of neutrons (N) can be summarized as: \[ N = A - Z \] ### Final Answer: The mass number (A), atomic number (Z), and number of neutrons (N) are related by the equation: \[ N = A - Z \]

If Z and A are atomic number and mass number of an element. Find the number of neutrons present in it.

The total number of protons and neutrons present in the atom of an element is known as its mass number. It is represented by A.
Mass number (A)=Number of protons +Number of neutrons (n)
`implies` mass of number (A)=Atomic number (Z)+ Number of neutrons (n)
`implies A=Z+n`
Number of neutrons in nucleus
We know `A=Z+n implies n=A-Z`
In an element A=Z identify the element
