A neutral atom has the atomic number of 10 and the atomic mass is 22 amu. what is the number of neutrons and electrons for this atoms?

Neutron number = 12

Electron number = 10

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Atomic number = 10

Mass number = 22

Neutron number =?

Electron number =?

Proton number = atomic number = 10

Mass number = Neutron + proton

Neutron = Mass number — proton

Neutron number = 22 — 10

Neutron number = 12

Since the atom is neutral, the protons and the electrons are equal i.e

Electron number = proton number

Electron number = 10

am i too late?

explanation:

c. is the answer
