atomic structure Flashcards
what is on the outer shell
electrons
what is in the nucleus
protons and neutrons
shell number two can fit how many electrons
8
shell number one can fit how many electrons
2
shell number three can fit how many electrons
8
charge of electron
-1
charge of neutron
0 (remember NEUTron)
charge of proton
1 (remember PROton)
mass of electron
1/1836
mass of neutron
1
mass of proton
1
mass number (top number) equals what
number of protons and neutrons
atomic symbol (middle letter(s)) means
which element it is
atomic number (bottom number)
number of protons (equal to the number of electrons)
how do you find a noble gas via the electrons
check how many electrons are on the last shell, if there are none or if it is full then it is a noble gas
