Chemistry Atomic Structure: 1.the 3 Particles of The Atom Are

This document provides information about atomic structure, including the three main particles that make up atoms (protons, neutrons, electrons), their charges, and other atomic properties such as atomic number, mass number, and how to determine the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in atoms of different elements. It includes examples of determining the number of each particle for several elements based on their atomic number or mass.

Atomic Structure
1.The 3 particles of the atom are:
a. proton_________________
b. neutron________________
c. electron________________
Their respective charges are:
a. +1e___________________
b. 0_____________________
c. -1e___________________
2.The number of protons in one atom of an element determines the
atoms
___________identity/type________, and the number of electrons
determines the
___________charge________ of an ion/atom.
3.The atomic number tells you the number of ____protons___________
in one atom of an element. It also tells you the number of
______electrons______ in a neutral atom of that element. The atomic
number gives the identity of an element as well as its location on
the
Periodic Table. No two different elements will have
the

_____same________ atomic

number.
4.The ____atomic mass_______ of an element is the average mass of
an element s naturally occurring atom, or isotopes, taking into
account the ______________proportion/percentage_____ of each
isotope.

5.The ______nucleon number_______________ of an element is the


total number of protons and neutrons in the
___________nucleus___________ of the atom.
6.The mass number is used to calculate the number of
_______nucleons/neutrons____ in one atom of an element. In order to
calculate the number of neutrons you must subtract the
______proton number_______ from the __nucleon number__.
7.Give the symbol and number of protons in one atom of:
Lithium _____Li, 3______________

Bromine _____Br, 35____________

Iron ________Fe, 26_____________

Copper ______Cu, 29____________

Oxygen _____O, 8_______________ Mercury _____Hg, 80____________


Krypton ____ Kr, 36_____________

Helium ______He, 2_____________

8.Give the symbol and number of electrons in a neutral atom


of:
Uranium _____U, 92____________ Chlorine ___Cl, 17_____________
Boron _______B, 5_____________ Iodine _____I, 53_______________
Antimony ____Sb, 51___________ Xenon _____Xe, 54_____________
9.Give the symbol and number of neutrons in one atom of:
(To get mass number ,you must round the atomic mass to the
nearest whole number)) Show your calculations.
Barium:

Ba, N = A Z = 137 56 = 81 Bismuth:

Bi, N = A Z

=_209 - 83 =126

Magnesium: Mg, N = A Z

= 24 12 = 12
Europium: Eu, N = A Z = 152 63 = 89 Mercury: Hg, N = A Z =
201 80 = 121
10.Name the element which has the following numbers of
particles:

a.26 electrons,29 neutrons,26 protons ___________________Iron_______


b.53 protons,74 neutrons _____________________________Iodine________
c.2 electrons (neutral atoms)___________________________Helium______
d.20 protons _______________________________________Calcium______
e.86 electrons,125 neutrons,82 protons (charged atom) _____Lead
(4- ion)_____
f.0 neutrons _______________________________________Hydrogen_____
