|
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. |
