(Yes, I’m sure you learned this already.) Atomic Number = # of _______________ Mass Number= # of ___________ + # of ___________ Complete the table below. Element Symbol Element Name Atomic # Atomic Mass # of Protons # of Electrons # Valence electrons # of Neutrons Net charge on atom C H O N Ca Cl Mg Label the following parts of the atom: Nucleus Electron Proton Neutron Electron Cloud trace element radioisotope ion isotope molecule 1. the substance formed when covalent bonds unite atoms 2. essential elements that are needed in small quantities 3. an atom that has gained or lost an electron 4. atoms of the same element, but different masses 5. unstable nucleus that emits energy and particles 6. The chart below shows the three isotopes of carbon. Some cells have been left blank. Apply what you know about isotopes to fill in the blank cells. Draw a Bohr Model of C-12, showing the location of the protons, neutrons, and electrons in their energy levels. Isotopes of Carbon Isotope Number of Protons Number of Electrons Number of Neutrons Carbon–12 (nonradioactive) Carbon–13 (nonradioactive) 6 6 6 Carbon–14 (radioactive) 7. Many of the molecules that make up living things are very large and complex. Water (H 2O) is the most important small molecule in living things. Add two (small) atoms of hydrogen to the oxygen atom below showing how they SHARE their valence electrons with oxygen to form 2 covalent bonds. Oxygen 8. Below is the chemical equation for cellular respiration. A) Balance the equation. B) Label the reactants; label the products. __C6H12O6 + __O2 __CO2 + __H2O + energy C) Is cellular respiration endothermic or exothermic? ________________________ How do you know? *Note- Each pH unit represents a 10x change in the concentration of H + in the solution. 9. On the pH scale above, write which direction is increasingly acidic and which is increasingly basic. 10. Identify two solutions that have more H+ ions than OH– ions. 11. Identify two solutions that have more OH– ions than H+ ions. 12. How would you neutralize a solution that has a pH of 12? 13. What makes pure water neutral? 14.
