7. What do the bits in the square mean?8
Proton/
atomic number O
Element symbol 16
Mass number

8. How many protons?
The number of protons in an atom is known as its atomic number or proton number.
It is the smaller of the two numbers shown in the periodic table.

9. What is the atomic number?
1. sodium
2. iron
3. tin
4. fluorine 11 26 50 9

10. Electrons have a mass of zero.
Mass number
The mass of each atom is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
Electrons have a mass of zero.
protons + neutrons = mass number

11. How many neutrons? Number of neutrons = mass number – atomic number
Number of electrons
Helium 4 2
2. Fluorine 19 9
3. Lithium 7 3
4. Potassium 39
5. Aluminium 27 13

12. How many neutrons? Number of neutrons = mass number – atomic number
Number of electrons
Helium 4 2
2. Fluorine 19 9 10
3. Lithium 7 3
4. Potassium 39 20
5. Aluminium 27 13 14

13. What can you now tell me about…
Worth 3 marks!
It’s time to talk about the electrons!

14. How do we know how many electrons an atom has?
IT IS THE SAME AS THE ATOMIC NUMBER!

18. Atoms. Due date for both: 15th March
Create a model of an atom
It can be anything – must be something physical you can carry and hand in!
Choose a specific element from the periodic table
Must include the following:
Protons
Neutrons
Electrons
Element symbol
Shells
Mass number
Proton number
2. Create a poster to go with your model
For the element you have chosen, create a poster.
Must include the following:
Name of the element
Element symbol
Mass number
Proton number
Where do we use that element?
Any other interesting information about that element
Remember this is a POSTER
Make sure it is colorful, interesting, not too much text…would you want to go look at it?
This can be done by hand or on the computer on an A4 piece of paper.
Timeline:
Lesson time given:
Tuesday 7th March
Wednesday 8th March
Friday 10th March
Finish for homework.
Due: Wednesday 15th March
