all matter is composed of _______, and each of these is distinguishable from the others by the physical and chemical properties of its basic component: the atom.
Element
2 or more atoms chemically combined, may or may not be of the same element (impure forms).
Molecule
at one point it was believed to be the smallest indivisible particle of matter but is now known to have a substructure and can be divided into smaller components. It exhibits characteristics of an element. It consists of a small central core, the nucleus, where most of the atomic mass is located and a surrounding “cloud” of electrons moving in orbits around the nucleus.
Atom
a principle characteristic of matter, it is the quantity of matter contained in an object. It is unchanged by changes in gravity.
Mass
denotes the number of protons in the nucleus.
Atomic number
mass of an atom expressed in terms of amu
Atomic mass-
kinetic energy acquired by an electron in passing through a potential difference of 1V.
eV
a unit of force given by the product of mass (kg) and acceleration
Newton
basic unit of energy and is equal to the work done when a force of 1 N acts through a distance of 1 m or E= F x d.
Joule
atoms/gm:
use Avogadro’s number/atomic weight

or NA/AW
gms/atom:
use atomic weight/ Avogadro’s number or AW/ NA
electrons/gm:
Avogadro’s number x atomic number/ atomic weight
Avogadro’s number =
6.0228x10^23 atoms/g amu
Decay constant=
.693/half-life.
How do you find Emax
Emax/3
What is Emax
average energy of an electron
If a reaction doesnt have at lease ______ initial energy to start the reaction it will be electron caputre
1.02 MeV
In a reaction we will most likely get auger electrons if the Z number is less than
30
Positive enegry (fission) is
exogenic
Negative energy (fusion) is ________ it has a threshold energy
endogenic
