Why are atomic numbers and mass numbers are always whole numbers ? |
|
Answer» 1. The atomic number is always a whole number because there must always be a whole number of protons in a nucleus. In other words there can never exist fractions of a proton. 2. The atomic mass number is always a whole number for the same reason. Protons and neutrons always come in single units not in fractions. |
