https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron%20number | The neutron number (symbol N) is the number of neutrons in a nuclide.
Atomic number (proton number) plus neutron number equals mass number: . The difference between the neutron number and the atomic number is known as the neutron excess: .
Neutron number is not written explicitly in nuclide symbol notation, but can b... |
