Periodic Table How to use it…
ATOMIC NUMBER: The number of protons in the nucleus. It is the number of protons that identifies the element C AtomicAc number
ATOMIC MASS: The sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus C AtomicAc mass
NEUTRONS: ROUNDED ATOMIC MASS – ATOMIC NUMBER FOR EXAMPLE…CARBON ATOMIC MASS = …ROUNDED IS 12 ATOMIC NUMBER = 6 12 – 6 = 6 NEUTRONS ROUNDED ATOMIC MASS ATOMIC NUMBER
VALENCE ELECTRONS: Electrons that are involved in transfer or sharing Located in the outer level of the atom Not all electrons in an atom are involved in the sharing or transferring 2 ways to represent the number of valence electrons: The Bohr Model Lewis Structure
VALENCE ELECTRONS: C Electron configuration
PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS: Organization of the all known elements based on their properties – such as atomic number C Selected oxidation state Atomic Mass Atomic Number Electron Configuration
