AB
Atoms of different elements have different numbers of __________.protons
Atoms of the same element alwaysl have the________ number of protonssame
The ______ of an element is the number of protons in each atom of that elementatomic number
________ are atoms of the same element that have different masses.Isotopes
The isotopes of a particular element all have the same number of ________ and ________ but different numbers of __________.protons, electrons, neutrons
The mass number is the total number of _______ and _________ that make up the __________ of an isotopeprotons and neutrons in the nucleus
The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is equal to the atom's _______.mass number
How would you write the hyphen notation of an isotope of carbon that had a mass number of 14?carbon-14
______ is the general term for a specific isotope of an element.Nuclide
If you are given the mass number and the atomic number of an element, how do you find the number of neutrons in the nucleus?# of neutrons = mass# - atomic#
If you are given the mass number and the atomic number of an element, how do you find the number of protons in the nucleus?# of protons = the atomic number
If you are given the number of protons and the number of neutrons in an element, how do find the mass number?add the # of protons to the # of neutrons
If you are given the number of protons and the number of neutrons in an element, how do find the atomic number?The atomic number = the number of protons
If you are given the number of protons and the number of neutrons in an element, how do find the name of the element?Look on the periodic table for the element with an atomic number that = the number of protons you were given
If you are given the mass number and the atomic number of an element, how do you find the name of that element?Look on the periodic table for the element with the same atomic number. The mass number is irrelevent.
The number 19 on the periodic table box below is the ____ of potassium., atomic number,
The number 39.0938 is the _____ of potassium., average atomic mass
According to the image below, how many protons does potassium have?, 19 (you can tell by the atomic number),
How many electrons would an atom of potassium have?, 19 (the same as the number of protons because atoms are electrically neutral),
How would you write the nuclear symbol for an isotope of Lithium that has 3 protons and 4 neutrons in its nucleus?.,
The graphic below shows the nuclear symbol for an isotope of lithium. What does the 7 and the 3 refer to?, The 7 is the mass number and the 3 is the atomic number,
How many protons and how many neutrons are in this isotope of lithium?, 3 protons and 4 neutrons,
The average atomic mass of an element is the weighted average of all naturally occuring _______ of that element.isotopes
What is the equation for calculating average atomic mass?Average atomic mass = atomic mass of isotope 1 X percent composition of isotope 1 + atomic mass of isotope 2 X percent composition of isotope 2 + atomic mass of any other isotopes X % composition of those isotopes
How many particles are in 1 mole of a substance?6.022 X 10 to the 23rd power
How do you determine the molar mass of an element?Find the average atomic mass of that element on the periodic table and make the unit grams per mole.
What is Avogadro's number expressed to 4 significant digits?6.022 X 10 to the 23rd power
What is the abbreviation for moles?mol
A(n) _____ is the smallest particle of an element that retains the chemical properties of that element.atom
The ____ is a very small region located in the center of the atom.nucleus
The nucleus is made up of at least one positively charged particle called a(n) _____ and usually one or more neutral particles called _____.proton, neutron
Surrounding the nucleus is a region occupied by negatively charged particles called _____.electrons
Protons, neutrons, and electrons are often referred to as ______ particles.subatomic
Except for the simplest type of hydrogen atom, all atomic nuclei are made of _________.protons and neutrons (the simplest type of hydrogen atom has one proton and no neutrons)
The positive charge of a(n) _______ is _______ in magnitude to the negative charge of a(n) ________.proton, equal, electron
A neutron has a ____ charge.neutral
Each element has a different number of _____ in their nucleus.protons
The short-range forces that hold the particles of a nucleus together when they are very close to one another are called _____.nuclear forces
The atomic ______ is the distance from the center of the atom to the outer portion of the electron cloud.radius
Atomic radii are usually measured in _______.picometers
What is "A" pointing to and what is its charge?, an electron, negative,
What is "B" pointing to and what is its charge?, The nucleus (positive because it consists of positively charged protons and neutral neutrons),
What is "C" pointing to and what is its charge?, proton, positive,
What is "D" pointing to and what is its charge?, neutron, neutral,
What is smaller than an electron?Chuck Norris' sense of fear (but no one has been brave enough to discover it yet),
