Q

an isotope is

A

an atom with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons

17
Q

to find the amount of neutrons in an element, you

A

mass number - atomic number

18
Q

to find the number of electrons in an element, you

A

look at the atomic number

19

the mass number is the ___ number on the periodic table

A

bigger

20
Q

the atomic number is the ___ number on the periodic table

A

21
Q

relative atomic mass is

A

The average mass of one atom of an element,

22
Q

how do you calculate relative atomic mass (Ar)

A

Ar = (% of isotope A x mass of isotope A) + (% of isotope B × mass of isotope B) / 100
