1. Distinguishing Among Atoms
CN#2
Just as apples come in different varieties, a chemical element can come in different “varieties” called isotopes.

2. Atomic Number What makes one element different from another? 4.3

3. 4.3
Atomic Number
Elements are different because they contain different numbers of protons.
The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in an atom. It is also the number of electrons.

8. Mass Number How do you find the mass number of an atom? 4.3

9. Mass number = protons + neutrons
4.3
Mass Number
The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom.
Mass number = protons + neutrons
Neutrons = mass number - protons

Isotopes
How do isotopes of an element differ?

17. 4.3
Isotopes
Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
Because isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons, they also have different mass numbers.

18. 4.3
Isotopes
Despite these differences, isotopes are chemically alike because they have identical numbers of protons and electrons.
Neon-20, neon-21, and neon-22 are three isotopes of neon, a gaseous element used in lighted signs. Comparing and Contrasting How are these isotopes different? How are they similar?

The Periodic Table—A Preview
A periodic table is an arrangement of elements in which the elements are separated into groups based on a set of repeating properties.
A periodic table allows you to easily compare the properties of one element (or a group of elements) to another element (or group of elements).

Each horizontal row of the periodic table is called a period.
Within a given period, the properties of the elements vary as you move across it from element to element.
