What is important about the atomic number? Unique for each element = # protons in nucleus
How do you figure out the number of: Protons in an atom? # protons = the atomic number Electrons in an atom? # electrons = # protons FOR NEUTRAL ATOMS, only! Neutrons in an atom? # neutrons = mass – # protons
What are Isotopes? Isotopes are different forms of the same element that have a different mass Isotopes have the same # protons but different # neutrons
What are Ions? Ions are atoms that have a positive or negative charge In an Ion, the number of protons and electrons are not equal
Standard Nuclear Notation Note: for ions, the charge (+ or -) is indicated in the upper right corner
What is the ONE THING that determines the identity of an atom? # of protons (atomic #)
