Unit 2: Symbols Say WHAT?
The Three Subatomic Particles After various molecular models of the atoms had been tested, it was determined that three subatomic particles made up the atom Protons Neutrons Electrons
Protons Protons are found in the nucleus Protons have an actual charge of +1.6 x 10-19 C and a relative charge of +1 The actual mass of a proton is 1.67 x 10-24 g The relative mass of a proton is 1 atomic mass unit (amu) The symbol is p+
Neutrons Neutrons are found in the nucleus Neutrons have an actual charge of 0 C and a relative charge of 0 The actual mass of a neutron is 1.67 x 10-24 g The relative mass of a neutron is 1 atomic mass unit (amu) The symbol is n0
Electrons Electrons are found outside the nucleus Electrons have an actual charge of -1.6 x 10-19 C and a relative charge of -1 The actual mass of an electron is 9.11 x 10-28 g The relative mass of a electron is 1/2000 atomic mass unit (amu) The symbol is e-
Atomic Number Each element has a certain number of protons in its nucleus The number of protons in the nucleus is called the atomic number Each element has its own atomic number because each element has its own, unique number of protons Note: That an element only changes if the atomic number changes. Which means that if the number of protons changes it changes elements
On Your Own Which element has a) 87 protons b) 35 protons c) 50 protons d) 92 protons e) 8 protons f) 19 protons
On Your Own: Determine the number of protons in the following atoms as well as each atom’s identity a) 6 electrons b) 14 electrons c) 72 electrons d) 55 electrons
Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons Mass Number: the number of protons and neutrons in an atom added together Mathematically Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons

Isotopes Atoms of the same elements have the same number of protons HOWEVER there may be different numbers of neutrons and different mass numbers When an element’s atom has different numbers of neutrons, it is said to have isotopes
Hydrogen’s Three Isotopes Hydrogen has the following isotopes: Protium-a hydrogen atom with one proton and NO neutrons Deuterium-a hydrogen atom with one proton and only one neutron Tritium-a hydrogen atom with one proton and two neutrons
The atomic mass unit is based on the relation of standard carbon-12 Average Atomic Mass Atomic mass is the mass of an atom expressed in atomic mass units or amu The atomic mass unit is based on the relation of standard carbon-12 Begin 2nd here on 2/13/2012
Average Atomic Mass Continued Carbon-12 has a mass of 12.000 00 amu Example: If an atoms weighs half as much as carbon-12, its atomic mass will be 6.000 amu Begin 4th 10-13-2000 begin 5th, begin 7th
Example: If an atom weighs four times as much as carbon-12, it will have a mass of 48.000 00 amu
What is Atomic Mass? The atomic mass that is reported in the periodic table is a weighted average based on the relative abundance of each element
Relative abundance refers to how common the isotope occurs in nature Percent Abundance which refers to how many of each isotope are in every hundred
To Determine Avg. Atomic Mass 1) First convert relative abundance (%) to decimal equivalent 2) Multiply mass (in amu) by decimal equivalent 3) Add the numbers together 4) The sum (in amu) is the average atomic mass
For example, an element has two naturally occurring isotopes For example, an element has two naturally occurring isotopes. One isotope has a relative abundance of 19.91% and a mass of 10.012 amu. A second isotope has a relative abundance of 80.08% and a mass of 11.009 amu. Calculate the atomic mass
Example For example, an element has two naturally occurring isotopes. One isotope has a relative abundance of 92.58% and a mass of 7.02 amu. A second isotope has a relative abundance of 7.42% and a mass of 6.02 amu. Calculate the atomic mass
