mass
• # of electrons = # of protons
– Make the atom neutral
• Electron shells (orbits) hold only a certain # of
electrons:
– 1st shell: 2 electrons
– 2nd shell: 8 electrons
– 3rd shell: 8 electrons
Where do we find this information?
Standard Atomic Notation
• Atomic Number: refers to the # of
protons in an atom’s nucleus
Learning Check
• What is the atomic number for…
– Mg
–N
– Ge
–I
• How many protons does each atom have?
– Cu
– Li

• Mass Number: refers to the number of
protons and neutrons in an atom’s nucleus
• Atomic Mass: the mass of an atom in atomic
mass units (u)
How many
NEUTRONS are in
a K atom?
• Mass Number: refers to the number of
protons and neutrons in an atom’s nucleus
How many
NEUTRONS are in
a K atom?
Mass # - Atomic #
= 39-19
= 20 Neutrons
Isotopes
• Has a different # of neutrons for the
element’s atom but the # of protons
remains the same
** We use the atomic mass (rounded to nearest whole #) as
the mass number
We use this to figure out the number of neutrons in an atom.
