How do you get the number of atomic mass, number of protons, number of electrons, and number of neutrons?

Question for Math teachers.

First, you take Pi, then divide it BY Pi, add the square root of that number, find the 7th integer of a googleplex and multiply the nearest prime number, round it off to the nearest 1000th subtract the duck and add a moose and that's your answer. If that doesn't work, just look it up online, somewhere.

The mass number of an atom is calculated by adding the number of protons and neutrons, which are referred to as nucleons. The number of protons in each atom of an element remains constant, while the number of neutrons can fluctuate, but as @shortster already said, an electron’s mass is insignificant.

I honestly don't know. I was only taught Times and division. I was only in special Ed classes so I didn't learn high school level work.

In what. In an atom. You need an E

In what in an atom you need some kind of element

Okay depending on the element protons will equal the atomic number

Protons equal atomic number

Neutrons equal Mass# minus the atomic number

Electrons equals the atomic number mine is the charge

This is for an atom but you need some sort of element to get that the answer to the question you're asking

A rough estimate is the number of Protons AND Neutrons. Example: Helium has an Atomic number of two, But an Atomic mass of 4. Helium has Two protons AND two Neutrons. This is how it is for every element that isn't an Isotope.

@hennessy_a The short and Quick of it, Atomic Mass is the Sum of how many Protons and Neutrons are within the Nucleus of any giving Atom.

[shortster]

Protons and neutrons. Electrons have almost no mass by comparison.

Wow your in advance classes good luck

[amyisme]

Ask the protons because there the Pros lol sorry couldn't resist a bad joke

[Ryfyle]

Thats so fucking sad. Kid, This is painfully basic chemistry.
