The characteristics of each element depend on the nature of its [...]. | The characteristics of each element depend on the nature of its atoms. |
an atom has a nucleus that contains [...] and neutrons, and that is surrounded by electrons. | an atom has a nucleus that contains protons and neutrons, and that is surrounded by electrons. |
the part of the atom that most distinguishes one element from another is the number of [...] in the atoms | the part of the atom that most distinguishes one element from another is the number of protons in the atoms |
The number of [...] in an atom is that atom's atomic number. | The number of protons in an atom is that atom's atomic number. |
The number of [...] plus the number of protons in an atom is that atom's mass number. | The number of neutrons plus the number of protons in an atom is that atom's mass number. |
The atomic number and mass number of an atom tell about the organization of its [...]. | The atomic number and mass number of an atom tell about the organization of its nucleus. |
The [...] number minus the atomic number gives you the number of neutrons. | The mass number minus the atomic number gives you the number of neutrons. |
The periodic table gives you the atomic number of each element and its *[...]* atomic mass; the average mass number of its different isotopes. | The periodic table gives you the atomic number of each element and its *average* atomic mass; the average mass number of its different isotopes. |
Isotopes are versions of an element that have the same [...] number but different [...] numbers. | Isotopes are versions of an element that have the same atomic number but different mass numbers. |
Isotopes of an element have the same number of [...], but a different numbers of neutrons. | Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but a different numbers of neutrons. |
You can always find out an atom's atomic number by using the [...]. | You can always find out an atom's atomic number by using the periodic table. |
In the periodic table, the atomic number is never a [...] number, but the average atomic mass usually is. | In the periodic table, the atomic number is never a decimal number, but the average atomic mass usually is. |
Protons have a [...] charge ([...]), neutrons are neutral in charge (0), and electrons have a negative charge (-1). | Protons have a positive charge (+1), neutrons are neutral in charge (0), and electrons have a negative charge (-1). |
The electrical balance of an atom is determined only by the numbers of protons and [...]. | The electrical balance of an atom is determined only by the numbers of protons and electrons. |
An electrically neutral atom has an equal number of [...] and electrons, so the positive and negative charges cancel out. | An electrically neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, so the positive and negative charges cancel out. |
The net charge of a [...] atom is 0. | The net charge of a neutral atom is 0. |
If given the number of proton it's also possible to determine the number of [...] in any electrically neutral atom. | If given the number of proton it's also possible to determine the number of electrons in any electrically neutral atom. |
an atom has a nucleus that contains protons and [...], and that is surrounded by electrons. | an atom has a nucleus that contains protons and neutrons, and that is surrounded by electrons. |
an atom has a nucleus that contains protons and neutrons, and that is surrounded by [...]. | an atom has a nucleus that contains protons and neutrons, and that is surrounded by electrons. |
The number of protons in an atom is that atom's atomic [...] | The number of protons in an atom is that atom's atomic number. |
The number of neutrons plus the number of [...] in an atom is that atom's mass number. | The number of neutrons plus the number of protons in an atom is that atom's mass number. |
The number of neutrons plus the number of protons in an atom is that atom's [...]. | The number of neutrons plus the number of protons in an atom is that atom's mass number. |
The mass number minus the [...] number gives you the number of neutrons. | The mass number minus the atomic number gives you the number of neutrons. |
The mass number minus the atomic number gives you the number of [...]. | The mass number minus the atomic number gives you the number of neutrons. |
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but a different numbers of [...]. | Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but a different numbers of neutrons. |
Protons have a positive charge (+1), [...] are neutral in charge ([...]), and electrons have a negative charge (-1). | Protons have a positive charge (+1), neutrons are neutral in charge (0), and electrons have a negative charge (-1). |
Protons have a positive charge (+1), neutrons are neutral in charge (0), and [...] have a negative charge ([...]). | Protons have a positive charge (+1), neutrons are neutral in charge (0), and electrons have a negative charge (-1). |
The electrical balance of an atom is determined only by the numbers of [...] and electrons. | The electrical balance of an atom is determined only by the numbers of protons and electrons. |
An electrically neutral atom has an equal number of protons and [...], so the positive and negative charges cancel out. | An electrically neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, so the positive and negative charges cancel out. |
An electrically neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, so the positive and negative charges [...]. | An electrically neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, so the positive and negative charges cancel out. |
The net charge of a neutral atom is [...]. | The net charge of a neutral atom is 0. |
If given the number of proton it's also possible to determine the number of electrons in any electrically [...] atom. | If given the number of proton it's also possible to determine the number of electrons in any electrically neutral atom. |
