Basic Atomic Structure Review
Learning Target Addressed:
1.4 I can describe the charge and location of protons, neutrons, and electrons within the nucleus and shells of an atom.
The periodic table is, in many ways, the world’s greatest cheat sheet. The periodic table lists all of the elements (simple
substances that make up more complex materials) like gold, silver, tin, lead and mercury. It also provides lots of information
about these elements. The table was created a long time ago by a guy named Dmitri Mendeleev who, probably like you,
did not want to memorize tons of information. He organized the elements by mass. That worked pretty well to group
elements with similar properties together. Soon after a guy named Henry Moseley realized that each element has a
specific number of protons. We call this the atomic number of the element. When he rearranged the periodic table by
atomic number the elements grouped into columns with similar properties.
Questions:
1.
Who created the first periodic table? Mendeleev
2.
What is an element? A simple substance that makes up more complex materials.
3.
What are the vertical (up and down) columns of the periodic table called? Groups (or families)
4.
What are the horizontal (back and forth) rows of the periodic table called? Periods
5.
Which elements have similar properties, those in the same period or in the same family? Family
6.
How did Mosley improve the organization of the periodic table? Organized by mass instead of atomic #

What makes up each element?
Hour: ______
The parts that make up an element are called sub-atomic particles. There are three basic sub-atomic particles that we will
talk about in chemistry, they are called protons, neutrons and electrons. Each proton has one positive charge of
electricity (+1). Each electron has one negative charge of electricity (-1). Neutrons are neutral, which means they do not
have a charge.
7.
What is a sub-atomic particle? The parts that make up an element.
8.
What is the difference between a proton, a neutron and an electron? Protons are positive, neutrons are neutral
and electrons are negative.

Practice with Isotopes
Hour: ______
Learning Target Addressed
1.8 I can describe the relationship between isotopes of the same element.
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different masses (or weights) due to different numbers of neutrons
in their nuclei. All atoms of the same element must have the same number of protons (and thus the same number of electrons)
which is equal to the atomic number. However, atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons and thus a
different mass number. The difference in mass does not influence the chemical behavior. Valence electrons are what determine
chemical behavior.
Hydrogen has three isotopes. The most abundant isotope is ordinary hydrogen-1. A second stable isotope is hydrogen-2 and the
third isotope is the radioactive hydrogen-3. The Bohr diagrams for the isotopes of hydrogen are shown below. Notice that
only the mass number and number of neutrons are different.

an element.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSyAehMdpyI (10:12) – You can google the title of this worksheet
The video above should help you answer the following questions:
1. What is “stuff” made of? Atoms
2. What are atoms? Tiny discrete particles with specific properties (depending on the
arrangement of their subatomic particles)
3. What are the three sub-atomic particles? Protons, Electrons and Neutrons
4. What is atomic number AND why is it important? The number of protons in an atom. It is
important because it determines what element it is (79 protons always means Gold and
47 means Silver)
5. True or False: If the number of neutrons in a silver atom changes, then the atomic
number changes. FALSE! As long as the number of protons stays the same so does the
atomic number.
6. Do all silver atoms have the same number of neutrons? Explain! No, some have 60
neutrons and others have 62 neutrons.
7. How to do you calculate the relative atomic mass of silver? Add the number of protons +
neutrons and average it across all the silver atoms on earth
8. What are the masses of the two isotopes (forms) of silver? Silver- 107 and Silver - 109
