Test 1 Flashcards
If two atoms have the same atomic number but different mass number, they are called what?
Isotopes
The atomic number tells you what?
The number of protons in an atom, so therefore it also tells the number of electrons.
The mass number tells you what about an atom?
The number of protons plus the number of neutrons in the atoms nucleus.
According to the Aufbau principle, in what order do you fill up orbitals?
Low energy to high energy
