Part 2
1.
The ________________ ________________ of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of that
element.
2.
Since the atomic number of carbon is 6, then a carbon atom has ____ protons in its nucleus,
3.
The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is called the atom’s
____________________________________________.
4.
The number of protons in an atom of a particular element can vary. TRUE or FALSE
5.
Every atom of a particular element has the same number of neutrons. TRUE or FALSE
6.
An isotope is ___________________________________________________________________________________.
7.
How is the atomic mass number different from the atomic number? ________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________________________

11. How does potassium-39 differ from potassium-41? _____________________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
12. State the difference between atomic mass and atomic number. ____________________________________________
_______________________________________________________________________________________________
13. Why are atomic masses not usually whole numbers? ____________________________________________________
14. Many atoms are neutral in charge because there are equal numbers of protons and electrons. If there are more or fewer
electrons in an atom then it is called an ________________.
15. What must happen to form a positive ion? ____________________________________________________________
16. How do we represent a positive magnesium ion with a +2 charge? _________________________
17. What must happen to form a negative ion? ___________________________________________________________
18. How do we represent a negative fluorine ion with a -1 charge? ____________________________
19. All aluminum atoms have 13 protons. Aluminum atoms often lose 3 electrons to form ions. Label the ion on the right
side by noting the protons and electrons that remain. Then, use the proper name representation of the symbol.
