    This document provides information about atomic structure and asks students to complete a table with the relative masses of protons and electrons, identify the number of protons in an atom's atomic number and the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's mass number. It also asks students to identify the chemical symbol of an atom based on its diagram, and explain why atoms have no overall charge in terms of the relative charges of protons, neutrons and electrons.
