Composition of the nuclei of two atomic species X and Y are
given as under
X | Y | |
Protons | \(6\) | \(6\) |
Neutrons | \(6\) | \(8\) |
Give the mass numbers of X and Y. What is the relation between the two species?
Mass number \(=\) Protons \(+\)
Mass number of X \(=\)
Mass number of Y \(=\)
As atomic number is equal to number of protons, the atomic number is same, i.e., \(6\).
Both X and Y are of same element.
