• isotope

• atom

• average

atomic number is

• the number of protons

• the number of electrons

• the number of neutrons

• the location of an atom on the periodic table

Atomic Mass is the number of

• protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom

• protons and electrons in the nucleus of an atom

• neutrons and electrons in the nucleus of an atom
