  • Neutron Calculation for Sulfur-35: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to determine the number of neutrons:

    * Mass Number: The mass number represents the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.

    * Atomic Number: Sulfur's atomic number is 16, which means it has 16 protons.

    Calculation:

    * Mass Number - Atomic Number = Number of Neutrons

    * 35 - 16 = 19

    Answer: There are 19 neutrons in an atom of sulfur with a mass number of 35.
