Emma is learning about elements in her science class. She discovers that the number of protons in one atom of an element determines the atom’s ________________, and the number of electrons determines the ________________ of the element.
identity, charge
mass, volume
weight, density
size, reactivity
Aria is learning about elements in her science class. She discovers that the atomic number tells you the number of ________________ in one atom of an element. It also tells you the number of ________________ in a neutral atom of that element. The atomic number gives the “identity” of an element as well as its location on the periodic table. No two different elements will have the ________________ atomic number.
protons, electrons, same
neutrons, protons, different
electrons, neutrons, similar
protons, neutrons, identical
William is studying the structure of atoms in his science class. He learns that the ______________________ of an element is the total number of protons and neutrons in the atom.
mass number
atomic number
valence number
isotope number
