How do we calculate atomic mass?
For any given isotope, the sum of the numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus is called the mass number. This is because each proton and each neutron weigh one atomic mass unit (amu).
By adding together the number of protons and neutrons and multiplying by 1 amu
, you can calculate the mass of the atom.

Is niobium harmful to humans?
Niobium and its compounds may be toxic (niobium dust causes eye and skin irritation) , but
there are no reports of human being poisoned by it
. Apart from measuring its concentration, no research on niobium in humans has been undertaken. Niobium, when inhaled, is retained mainly in the lungs, and secondarily in bones.
Why potassium 41 is unstable?
This difference is enough to make potassium 40 unstable. The reason for this is that
protons, like neutrons, like to exist in pairs in a nucleus
. Potassium 40 contains odd numbers of both – 19 protons and 21 neutrons. As a result it has one bachelor proton and one bachelor neutron.
