Atoms
  1. All substances are made of atoms.
    1. A substance that is made of only one sort of atom is called an element
    2. The periodic table has groups that contain elements with similar properties
      1. atoms have a small central nucleus, made up of protons and neutrons and around which there are electrons
        1. Proton +1
          1. Neutron 0
            1. Electron -1
          2. In an atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.
            1. Atoms have no overall electrical charge.
            2. Atomic number= the number of protons in an atom
              1. Mass number= sum of protons& neutrons
              2. All atoms of a particular element have the same number of protons. All atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons.
                1. Atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons;
                  1. these atoms are called isotopes of that element.
