Which element’s atoms have the greatest average number of neutrons?

tin (Sn)
antimony (Sb)
tellurium (Te)
iodine (I)

Answered by admin @ 02/08/2021

Answer:

Number of neutrons of the elements can be calculated if the atomic number and mass number is known.

As, Number of neutrons= Mass number Atomic number

For Tin(Sn), the mass number is 119 and atomic number is 50, then

Number of neutrons=119-50=69

For Antimony(Sb), the mass number is 122 and the atomic number is 51, then

Number of neutrons=122-51=71

For Tellurium(Te), the mass number is 128 and atomic number is 52,then

Number of neutrons=128-52=76 Fro iodine(I), the mass number is 127 and

the atomic number is 53, then

Number of neutrons=127-53=74 Since, the number of neutrons are large

in Tellurium, therefore Tellurium have the greatest average number of neutrons.
