  1. How many neutrons are there in 92U238 atom ?
    1. 92
    2. 238
    3. 146
    4. 330
Correct Option: C

The atomic mass (A) of Uranium (92U238) = 238; the number of protons (p) = 92 = number of electrons (e). Since atomic mass (A) = p + n (number of neutrons), A = 238 = 92 + n So, n = 238 -92 = 146
