An isotope is defined as an element that has the same number of protons as the common element but different number of neutrons. In this case, a beryllium atom has a molar weight of 10 amu. Thus, there are 4 protons and 6 neutrons. The nuclear symbol of Be-10 is 4 Be10

The symbol for the isotope of Beryllium having a mass number of 10 is 104Be

Data obtained from the question

  • Isotope = Beryllium
  • Mass number (a) = 10
  • Symbol of isotope =?

How to determine the symbol

The symbol of isotope is given as azX

Where

  • a is the mass number
  • z is the atomic number
  • X is the symbol of element

From the periodic table, we obtained the following

  • Element = Beryllium
  • Symbol = Be
  • Atomic number = 4

Thus, the symbol of the beryllium isotope can be written as follow

  • Element = Beryllium
  • Symbol of element (X) = Be
  • Atomic number (z) = 4
  • Mass number (a) = 10
  • Symbol of isotope =?

azX => 104Be
