Atomic Structure. Atom. Basic unit of matter Made of subatomic particles. Element. Substance made of same type of atom. Protons. Positive Charge Located in the nucleus Mass = 1 amu Helps make up the mass of an atom # of protons never changes for an element Same as atomic number.
E N D
Atom • Basic unit of matter • Made of subatomic particles
Element • Substance made of same type of atom
Protons • Positive Charge • Located in the nucleus • Mass = 1 amu • Helps make up the mass of an atom • # of protons never changes for an element • Same as atomic number
Neutrons • No Charge • Located in the nucleus • Mass = 1 amu • Helps make up the mass of an atom • Can differ in atoms of the same element How to Calculate Neutrons Mass # - Atomic # = Neutrons
Electrons • Negative Charge • Located in the electron cloud • Surrounds the nucleus • Move very fast! • Mass = 0 amu • Does not really count towards an atom’s mass • In neutral atoms, electrons = protons
Atomic Number • Special for every element • Tells # of protons (and electrons) • Located on the periodic table (whole number)
Atomic Mass • Located on periodic table • Has decimals • Average mass of the element’s isotopes
Mass Number • Protons + Neutrons • Whole Number (rounded atomic mass)
