tiny, negatively charged particle that moves around the outside of the nucleus of an atom electron
the central core of an atom which contains protons and neutrons nucleus
small, positively charged particles that are found in the nucleus of an atom proton
a region of an atom in which electrons of the same energy are likely to be found energy level
a small particle found in the nucleus of an atom with no electric charge neutron
the number of protons in the nucleus atomic number
an atom with same number of protons and different number of neutrons from other atoms of the same element isotope
the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom mass number
the average mass of all the isotope of an element atomic mass
an arrangement of the elements showing the repeating pattern of their properties periodic table

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
