Protons=electrons
Isotopes have the same amount of protons and electrons but different numbers of [_______]
Neutrons
What is the mass number?
The total number of protons and neutrons on the nucleus of an atom

Different
In a chemical reaction does the mass and number of atoms change in the product?
No
What happens in a nuclear reaction?
The nucleus of a atom is broken to produce different elements.
In a nuclear reaction mass is lost to produce [__________] therefore the mass of the product is less then the mass of the reactants.
Energy
What is fission?
When a nucleus splits and energy is produced
What is fusion?
When multiple nuclei join to form a heavier nucleus. This creates more energy then fission.
