an aluminum atom has an atomic number of 13 and a mass number of 27,how many
a)protons
b) electrons

pls write the formula too ​


Sagot :

Element is

[tex]\boxed{\sf {}^{27}Al_{13}}[/tex]

  • Atomic number=13
  • Mass number=27

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\:Protons=Atomic \:Number=13[/tex]

And

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\:Neutrons=Mass\:number-Atomic\:Number[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\:Neutrons=27-13[/tex]

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\:Neutrons=14[/tex]

And

[tex]\\ \sf\longmapsto No\:of\:electrons=No\:of\:Protons=13[/tex]
