In a neutral atom # of protons=#of electrons.
Atoms are electrically neutral.
If the number of protons does not equal the number
of electrons you have a charged atom known as an
ion.
# protons > # electrons forms a + ion (cation)
# electrons > # protons forms a – ion (anion)
The charge on the nucleus is positive.
Most of the mass of an atom is in nucleus.

1913—Henry Mosley
Used to identify an atom
Indicates the number of protons
In a neutral atoms also gives the number of
electrons
Also called the Nuclear Charge

Total number of protons and neutrons in the
nucleus of an atom. (nucleons)
Notation: AXZ
Mass # = #protons + # neutrons
# neutrons = Mass # - # protons

Thomson (1912) found 2 types of neon atoms and
Soddy (1910) found 2 types of uranium atoms.
2 elements that have the same atomic number but
different mass numbers
Based on atomic structure: 2 elements that have
the same number of protons but different number of
neutrons.
For example: Cl-35 and Cl-37

Decimal number
Average of all the naturally occurring
isotopes for a particular element
If you round the atomic mass it gives you the
mass number for the most common isotope.
Unit is amu (atomic mass unit)
1 amu is 1/12 the mass of C-12
Gram atomic mass= amu but in grams
Try the following:
1.
Determine the number of protons, neutrons,
and electrons for the following isotopes of
hydrogen:
Solution:
Hydrogen-1 (protium) 1H1
Hydrogen-2 (deuterium) 2H1
Hydrogen-3 (tritium) 3H1

Naturally occurring chlorine consists of
75% Cl-35 and 25% Cl-37. Find the
average atomic mass.

.75(35) + .25(37)= 35.50 amu or

75(35) + 25(37) =35.50 amu

3. Calculate the atomic mass of an element with
isotope A occurring 70.0% of the time with a mass
of 13.0 amu and isotope B occurring 30.0% of the
time with a mass of 15.0 amu.

.70 (13.0) +.30 (15.0) =13.6 amu
4.
An element X has three isotopes
X-30 has a 50.0% abundance, X-28 has a 30.0%
abundance and X-31 has a 20.0% abundance.

.500(30) + .300(28) + .200 (31) = 29.6 amu
5. There are two isotopes of element Z, 60.0% of the
atoms have a mass of 58.0 amu and 40.0% have a
mass of 57.0 amu. Calculate theatomic mass of
element Z.

.600(58.0) + .400(57) = 57.6 amu
