What is the basic structure of an Atom?
Subatomic Particles Nucleus Electrons - outside nucleus Protons Neutrons Electrons - outside nucleus
Subatomic Particles
SUBatomic “Sub” = under Like Submarine
Atoms with the same element with a different number of neutrons Isotopes Atoms with the same element with a different number of neutrons
Positively or negatively charged atoms Ions Positively or negatively charged atoms
Ions Positive Ion Negative Ion # of protons < # of electrons
# of Protons + # of Neutrons Mass Number # of Protons + # of Neutrons
Schrodinger Equation
What are the three subatomic particles What are the three subatomic particles? Circle which of these subatomic particles are located in the nucleus of an atom. Assume you have a neutral atom of nitrogen (7 protons, 7 neutrons and 7 electrons), what would happen if you added one proton? Answer as completely as possible to get full credit. Assume you have a neutral atom of Carbon (6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons), what would happen if you added one electron? Answer as completely as possible to get full credit. What is the mass number of the atom in number 3? An atom consists of 8 protons, 9 neutrons, and 8 electrons. What element does this atom represent?
