Based on the information you provided, here’s how each part corresponds to the terms you have:
- 14 - Atomic Number (the number of protons in an atom of the element)
- Si - Element Symbol (the one- or two-letter abbreviation of the element)
- 28.086 - Atomic Mass (the average mass of an element's atom, accounting for isotopes)
- Silicon - Element Name (the full name of the element)
Now, to calculate the number of neutrons, you would typically use the formula:
- Number of Neutrons = Atomic Mass (rounded) - Atomic Number
In this case, if we round 28.086 to 28, we would have:
- Number of Neutrons = 28 - 14 = 14
Therefore, to summarize the boxes:
- Top Box (14): Atomic Number
- Middle Box (Si): Element Symbol
- Another Middle Box (28.086): Atomic Mass
- Last Box (Silicon): Element Name
- To determine the number of neutrons, use the rounded atomic mass: Used to calculate the number of neutrons
- The number of protons (which equals the atomic number, 14) is the same as the atomic number.
- The number of electrons in a neutral atom equals the number of protons, so also 14.
I hope this helps!
