| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| two major particles are found in the nucleus of most atoms | Protons and neutrons |
| have weight and positive charge | Protons |
| equal weight to proton and no charge | neutron |
| outside the nucleus in shells (subdivided into ........) are ..... (no weight and negative charge | orbitals and electrons |
| protons=neutrons=electrons and since protons have a positive charge and electrons have and equal but ............ charge atoms are neutral. | opposite negative |
| ......... in most cases are when the proton No. is not identical to the neutron number (exceptions include Hydrogen). Usually the neutron No. is greater than the proton no. | Isotopes |
| for a given element the ......... number is ......... and fixed. | proton, fixed |
| ...... the number of protons in and atom | Atomic number |
| ....... is the number of protons + neutrons (usually twice the stominc number) | Mass number |
| ...... is the average of mass numbers of all isotops of an atom | Atomic weight |
| ....... and therefore........ and ....... formation is a result of the organization of electrons in the orbitals surrounding the nucleus | stability, reactivity, bond |
| the number of.......... required to be........ to or........ from the outermost shells dictate the number of bonds that must be formed to make the atoms stable | electrons, added, lost |
| the ..... must be complete to be stable | outer most shell |
| the unstable and therefore reactive atoms are... | hydrogen, carbon, oxygen. sodium, and chlorine |
| the stable and thus unreactive atom is .... | helium |
| given that the inner shell of all atoms can only contain ___ electrons and outer shell a max of __ electrons you should be able to see atoms that do not have the max number in the outer are unstable and reactive also the number of bonds to stabilize | 2,8 |
