| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Atom | Smallest particle of matter that retains the properties of an element |
| Mass number | The weight (mass) of an element Identifies isotopes. Neurons + Protons = Mass # |
| Isotope | Atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons |
| Electron | Subatomic particle Negative charge Found in all forms of matter |
| Neutron | Subatomic particle Neutral charge Mass is almost equal to the proton |
| Proton | Subatomic particle Positive charge Amount of charge equal to that of an electron |
| Scanning Tunneling Microscope | Instrument allowing atoms to be seen |
| Atomic number | The number of protons (or electrons) in an atom |
| Radioactive | Emits rays and particles (radiation) |
| Atomic Mass Unit | amu Expresses weight 1/12 the mass of a 12-carbon atom |
| Know how to calculate Isotope abundance | (% x amu) + (% x amu) % in decimal form Ex. 64% to 0.64 |
| Know how to read the periodic table | Neutrons = Mass - atomic number |
| Dalton's 5 parts of his atomic theory | -Elements are composed of invisible particles (atoms) -Atoms of the same element are identical -Atoms of diff elements can combine to form compounds -Chemical reactions occur when atoms are separated -Chemical reactions are atom arrangement |
