New cards

What is an electron, proton and neutron relative mass

Electron - 0.005, Proton - 1, Neutron - 1

2
New cards

What is atomic number

The number of proton in the nucleus of an atom

3
New cards

What can we use the atomic number for (3 things)

  • Work out the number of electrons

  • Identify the element

  • Gives position of element in periodic table

4
New cards

What is mass number

The total number of proton + neutron in the nucleus of an atom

5
New cards

What are isotopes

Isotopes are atoms which have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. They are the same element but they have different masses.

6
New cards

Relative isotopic mass is the mass of an isotope relative to […] of an atom of […].

Relative isotopic mass is the mass of an isotope relative to 1/12th of an atom of carbon-12.

7
New cards

A […] ion (Cation) has […] one or more electrons.

A […] ion (anion) has […] one or more electrons.

A positive ion (Cation) has lost one or more electrons.

A negative ion (anion) has gained one or more electrons.

8
New cards

Why do we use masses and moles

Atoms are weighed by comparing their masses to each other.

Atoms are counted by using the moles - an amount that has a definite mass and contains a fixed number of particles.

9
New cards

Why is carbon-12 used as the standard for relative masses?

Easy to get/abundant

Stable

10
New cards

How does the mass of a magnesium atom compare to the mass of carbon-12 atom?

A magnesium atom is approx twice as heavy as a 12C atom.

11
New cards

For an isotope the relative mass will be approximately […] as its mass number

For an isotope the relative mass will be approximately the same as its mass number

12
New cards

What is the approx relative mass for zinc with mass no. of 65 and Pb with a mass no. of 206

Zn - 65.000

Pb - 206.000

13
New cards

Which group has +1 charge

group 1

14
New cards

Relative Isotopic mass

the mass of one isotope compared to one twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon-12

15
New cards

Relative molecular mass

the average mass of a molecule compared to one twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon-12

16
New cards

Why might isotopes have slightly varying physical properties

Because they have different masses

17
New cards

How do you get number of neutrons from the mass and atomic number

Number of neutrons = mass number (A) - atomic number (Z)

18
New cards
<p><span>Why does the following spectra appear like this?&nbsp;</span></p><p></p>

Why does the following spectra appear like this? 

Because Cl and Br have two isotopes :

  • Cl35 (75%) and Cl37 (25%)

  • Br79 (50%) and Br81 (50%)

19
New cards

What is the atomic number

The atom number, Z, is the number of protons in the nucleus. It is also the number of electron since an element has no overall charge.

20
New cards
21
New cards

Where is a electron, what it is relative mass and relative charge

Orbitals/shells, mass of 1/1800 and charge of -1

22
New cards
<p><span>why is 160 m/z so high</span></p>

why is 160 m/z so high

The 160 peak has double the abundance of the other two peaks because there is double the probability of 160 Br79-Br81+ as can be Br79-Br81 and Br81-79.

23
New cards

What are Isotopes

Isotopes are atoms of same element with the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons.

24
New cards

what is the mass number

mass number, A, is the total number of protons and neutrons in the atom.

25
New cards

Relative atomic mass

the weighted mean mass of one atom compared to one twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon-12

26
New cards

-If sodium ion has a plus 1 charge and has a atomic number of 11, Total positive charge of protons will be […] and the total negative charge of electron will be […].

-Just like chlorine with a charge of minus 1 with a atomic number of 17 would have a total positive charge of protons of […] while total negative charge will be […]

-If sodium ion has a plus 1 charge and has a atomic number of 11, Total positive charge of protons will be +11 and the total negative charge of electron will be -10.

-Just like chlorine with a charge of minus 1 with a atomic number of 17 would have a total positive charge of protons of +17 while total negative charge will be -18

27
New cards

Where is a proton, what it is relative mass and relative charge

Nucleus, mass of 1 and a +1 charge

28
New cards

What are the equation for Relative atomic mass of an element

.

<p>.</p>
29
New cards

As - for an isotope the relative mass will be approx the same as the mass number. 

-Each proton + neutron have a mass of […] atomic mass unit

-we are assuming that the electrons contribute […] mass to the atom mass unit.

As - for an isotope the relative mass will be approx the same as the mass number. 

-Each proton + neutron have a mass of 1 atomic mass unit

-we are assuming that the electrons contribute zero mass to the atom mass unit.

30
New cards

The mass of an atom is equal to the number of the […]

The mass of an atom is equal to the number of the nucleons

31
New cards

Where is a neutron, what it is relative mass and relative charge

Nucleus, mass = 1 and charge of 0

32

<p><span>How do you turn full equations to ionic equation using this equation as an example</span></p>

How do you turn full equations to ionic equation using this equation as an example

.

<p>.</p>
33
New cards

Spectator ions

ions that are not :

  • Not changing state

  • Not changing oxidation number

34
New cards

Why do we write ionic equations?

  • We usually write ionic equations to show the key

  • changes in a reaction. lonic equations only show the

  • ions that are reacting and leave out spectator ions.
