Isotope Ion

Isotopes, Ions and Average Atomic Mass

By TROB

Ion Notation

• Same as isotope

• includes charge in upper right

• + means LESS ELECTRONS than PROTONS

• (-) means MORE ELECTRONS than PROTONS

Ions

• Ion means charged atom

• To be charged it needs more or less electrons than protons

• more electrons = NEGATIVE

• less electrons = POSITIVE

ISOTOPES:

• Same Element

• Different Mass Number

• WHICH MEANS DIFFERENT # of NEUTRONS

Average Atomic Mass

• DIFFERENT than Mass Number

• Average of all of the isotopes of an atom found in nature.

How to tell which isotope is more abundant?

• CLOSEST TO ROUNDED AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS

• So the most abundant isotope of Gold would be?

• Gold - 197
