The document discusses atomic number, mass number, and isotopes. It defines atomic number as the number of protons in an atom's nucleus, and mass number as the total number of protons and neutrons. Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number but different mass numbers. The document provides examples of calculating atomic number, mass number, protons, neutrons, and electrons given values for various isotopes.

1 Number and Mass and Isotopes An element’s atomic number is the number of protons in its nucleus. Since atoms are neutral, and have equal numbers of protons and electrons, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons for a neutral atom. – Eg helium has an atomic number of 2, so it has 2p+ and 2e-. CH1120 - 1.4 and 1.5 Atomic 2 Number and Mass and Isotopes Mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. – Eg. Normal helium has a mass number of 4. It has 2p+ and 2n.

3 Number and Mass and Isotopes In the periodic table in your text book, the atomic number is the number located in the top of each square for each element in the table. This is common for most versions of the periodic table.

5 Number and Mass and Isotopes Given any suitable combination of mass number, atomic number, and the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons, find the other quantities. Atomic number = #p+ = #e- Mass number – atomic number = #n Eg. If He has a mass number of 4 find its atomic number, and number of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Ans: From the periodic table, helium has an atomic number of 2, which means that it has 2 protons and 2 electrons. It also has #n = mass number – atomic number = 4 - 2 = 2 neutrons.

6 Number and Mass and Isotopes Eg. 2 If uranium has 146 neutrons, what are the atomic number, the number of protons and electrons and the mass number. Ans. From the periodic table U has an atomic number of 92, which means that it has 92 protons and 92 electrons. Its mass number is 92 + 146 = 238
