Atomic Number 6



And the atomic number equals the number of protons. The mass number is the total number of particles in the nucleus. Since the atomic number is 6, its carbon, and the other 8 particles are called neutrons. Thus add together to get 14 total particles in the nucleus of this isotope of carbon. It is the carbon-14 isotope, has 6 protons, and 8. As we know Mass number means sum of total numbers of protons and nutrons present in nucleus of an atom. As we know atomic number means number of protons present in nucleus of an atom. If mass number is 13. And Atomic number is 6. Then total numbe.
