Atomic Number = Number of Protons

Number of Electrons = Number of Protons

Atomic Mass= Protons + Neutrons

Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number

Atomic Mass is ALWAYS the larger number

"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps, it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away." -Henry David Thoreau.
