  • Ion and Atom Sizes

    Usually, the mass number minus the atomic number gives us the number of protons in a neutral atom. Helium, for example, has a mass number of 4 and atomic number of 2, and has 2 protons (and 2 neutrons).

    F, N, O, Ne, Mg The periodic table is key to this type of question. You should know that atomic number corresponds to the number of protons (and in a neutral, "uncharged" atom the number of electrons too).

  • Atomic theory of matter

    Isotopes of the same element have the same atomic number (protons only) but different mass number (protons + neutrons).

  • Atoms and Elements

    The mass of the atom, its atomic mass, depends significantly upon both the number of protons and upon the number of neutrons present in the nucleus.
