The Nucleus which is left over after radioactive decay?
Daughter
A large Nucleus splits into 2 smaller nuclei
Fission
Identity of element is established by its...?
Atomic Number
High energy light waves which escape from a radioactive nucleus
Beta Particles
The location of all the protons & Neutrons in the atom
Nucleus
Atoms which have gained or lost electrons
ions
the smallest part of an element which can still have the properties of that element
Atom
Helium ions which escape from radioactive nuclei
Alpha particles
Particles which travel from the negative to the positive electrode in a glass tube- now called "electrons"
Cathode rays
Chemical reactions do not create or destroy atoms- they just re-arrange them
law of conservation of mass
Attraction between protons and neutrons in a nucleus
Fusion
1/12 the mass of a Carbon-12 atom
Atomic mass unit
Electrons which escape from radioactive nuclei
Beta particles
Helium ions which escape from radioactive nuclei
Alpha particles
A given compound always has the same percentage of its elements by mass
Law of constant composition
Particles which travel from the negative to the positive electrode in a glass tube- now called "electrons"
Cathode rays
Chemical reactions do not create or destroy atoms- they just re-arrange them
law of conservation of mass
Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons

Nuclear reactions
Protons+neutrons=?
Mass number
Using examples, explain how isotopes are related to the atomic mass of an element.
Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Neutrons are 1/2 the atomic mass so you can conclude that the most common element is the same number as its atomic mass
Using examples, explain how an atom becomes an ion
Atoms are electrically neutral therefore in an atom # of protons= # of electrons. An ion is when an atom gaines or looses an electron.
More protons than neutrons= positive charge
More neutrons than protons= negative charge
Explain the different between a stable nucleus and a radioactive nucleus. Describe the role of the neutron in making the nucleus stable
Stable- neutrons are being held together and are doing their job.
Radioactive- 83 or more neutrons. It is unstable and arent being held in the nucleus.
