What charge do protons have and where are they located?

positively-charged, located in the nucleus

What charge do neutrons have and where are they located?

neutral (no charge), located in the nucleus

What charge do electrons have and where are they located?

negative charge, located outside the nucleus

What does the atomic number tell us?

the number of protons an element has

How do you find mass number?

the sum of protons and neutrons

How do you calculate average atomic mass?

Avg. Atomic Mass = (mass 1 x abundance 1) + (mass 2 x abundance 2) + …

repeat for however many isotopes there are. remember to convert your abundances to decimals before calculating (divide by 100 or move decimal two spaces to the left)

What were the four postulates of Dalton’s Atomic Theory?

1. all matter is made up of atoms

2. atoms of an element are identical in size, mass, and other properties; atoms of different elements differ in size, mass, and other properties.

3. Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios to form chemical compounds.

4. In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged.

What is the relationship between wavelength and frequency and energy?

An inverse relationship

long wavelength = low frequency = low energy

short wavelength = high frequency = high energy
