Question
**Calculate the Number of Neutrons of \( ^{209}\text{Bi} \)** To determine the number of neutrons in an isotope, you can use the following formula: \[ \text{Number of Neutrons} = \text{Mass Number} - \text{Atomic Number} \] For bismuth (\( ^{209}\text{Bi} \)), the mass number is \(209\), and the atomic number (number of protons) for bismuth is \(83\). Thus, the number of neutrons is: \[ 209 - 83 = 126 \] **Interactive Section:** - A field labeled "neutrons" where students can input their answer. - Controls to submit or reset the input (indicated by 'X' for clear and a circular arrow for reset). This explanation helps students understand how to calculate neutrons in isotopes, using bismuth as an example.
