Subatomic particles Electron Proton Neutron NameSymbolCharge Relative mass Actual mass (g) e-e- p+p+ n0n / x x Q. Which particles are responsible for the mass of the atom?

1. Atomic mass is also called mass number. Mass Number = the number of protons + neutrons (All the things with mass) 1. Atomic mass is also called mass number. Mass Number = the number of protons + neutrons (All the things with mass) Q. Which particles are used to identify an atom?

2. Atomic Number (proton number) = number of protons n # of protons determines kind of atom n the same as the number of electrons in the neutral atom X Use your periodic tables to identify the atomic number and atomic mass of element X. a b

Symbols n Contain the symbol of the element, the mass number and the atomic number X Mass number Atomic number

Nucleons: This is all the particles that make up the nucleus. This is equal to the protons + neutrons. Nucleons: This is all the particles that make up the nucleus. This is equal to the protons + neutrons. Q. How can you find the number of neutrons in an atom?
