Answer:

the number of neutrons available is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The atomic number is 26

And, the mass number is 56

We need to determine the number of neutrons does it have

So, the number of neutrons is

= Mass number - atomic number

= 56 - 26

= 30

Hence, the number of neutrons available is 30

The same would be considered and relevant
