3 TEACHER READS: Read the question to yourself and select the best answer. Which statement is true about an element when adding or removing protons from the nucleus of an atom?

A. Correct answer B. Student(s) may have recognized that


protons are one of the two components contributing to the mass of the atom; however, this is an isotope of sodium, which makes the neutrons the most massive component of this atom. C. Student(s) may have recognized that electrons contribute to the majority of the atom's size; however, this is an isotope of sodium, which makes the neutrons the most massive component of this atom. D. Student(s) may have recognized that protons are one of the most massive components of the atom; however, this is an isotope of sodium, which makes the neutrons the most massive component of this atom.

an ion is created an isotope is created creates a different element creates an identical element

Master ID: 186460 Revision: 1 Correct: C Rationale:

A. Student(s) may not have known that


when an atom gains or loses an electron, it becomes a charged particle called an ion, and assumed that such a particle is created by adding and removing protons. B. Student(s) may have known that adding or removing neutrons from an atom does not create a different element but an isotope, and mistakenly assumed that the same applies when adding or removing protons. C. Correct answer D. Student(s) may have misunderstood the question and mistakenly assumed that adding or removing protons from the nucleus of an atom will produce an identical element.

But student(s) may not have realized that the number of protons plus neutrons in an atom, does not determine if the atom will bond. D.
