Atomic Mass

Jamir Ashley · Answer 2

The atomic mass

Explanation:

The atomic mass is concentrated within the nucleus where we have protons and neutrons being housed. It is a tiny space compared to that being occupied by the electrons orbiting the nucleus.

The atomic mass gives the greatest numerical value because it is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom.

The atomic number is usually the number of protons or electrons for an atom in its neutral state.
