What is the change on the subatomic particles represented in figure 4-3? assuming all the particles in the nucleus are visible, what are the atomic and mass numbers of the atom shown?

Explanation:

Atomic number means the number of protons an atom holds. Whereas mass number equals (number of protons + number of neutrons).

The given figure shows that there are 9 neutrons and 8 protons.

Therefore,

 mass number of the atom = number of protons + number of neutrons

                             = 8 + 9

                             = 17

Hence, mass number of the atom is 17 and atomic number of the atom is 8.
