Answer:

117-

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the atomic number of platina is 78 and the atomic average mass number is about 195. Neutron = 195 – 78 = 117. Therefore, a platinum atom has one hundred seventeen neutrons. Based on the atomic number, mass number, and neutron number of the element, three things can be considered.

Hope this helped.
