    The Atomic Mass of Metallo You may have noticed on the periodic table that the atomic mass of an element is usually not a whole number. That happens because of isotopes. An atom that is missing a neutron or has an extra neutron is called an isotope. They are still the same element; however‚ they are just a little different from every other atom of the same element. Most of the carbon atoms in the universe are Carbon-12‚ with 6 neutrons. A small percentage of carbon atoms are Carbon-13‚ with 7 neutrons
