- 2In what order of atomic number are the elements arranged in the periodic table?Ascending Order
- 3What are isotopes?These are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons (and hence different mass numbers).
- 4What are elements?An element is a substance that is made entirely from one type of atom.
- 5What does an atom's nucleus consist of?Protons and Neutrons
- 6What is the nucleus surrounded by?Electrons
- 7The nucleus of an atom is always...Positively Charged.
- 8Protons and electrons are...Oppositely Charged.
- 9What do neutrons not have?They have no charge.
- 10Why does an atom have a neutral overall charge?This is because it has the same number of electrons as protons.
- 11Protons and neutrons have...The same mass.
- 12What is mass number?This is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom. It is also called the nucleon number.
