Mass Number = mass of all the protons and neutrons in the nucleus

Atomic Number = number of protons in the nucleus and the number of electrons orbiting the nucleus

Element Symbol – eg. Beryllium

To find the number of neutrons in the nucleus, subtract atomic number from mass number. There would be 9 – 4 or 5 neutrons in a Beryllium atom

RememberRemember

The periodic table is organized by The periodic table is organized by atomic number (the number of atomic number (the number of protons the element has in its protons the element has in its nucleus)nucleus)

Protons are + and electrons are - Protons are + and electrons are - The number of protons = the number The number of protons = the number

Even though each element has a Even though each element has a different # of different # of PROTONS PROTONS and and ELECTRONSELECTRONS, each element in a group , each element in a group has a similar has a similar Bohr-Rutherford DiagramBohr-Rutherford Diagram

This means they want to This means they want to gaingain or or loselose the same number of the same number of Electrons.Electrons.

It also means elements in a Group will It also means elements in a Group will react similarly in Chemical Reactionsreact similarly in Chemical Reactions
