the use of the word atoms is first attributed to:
greeks
what is the purpose of binding energy?
hold protons and neutrons together
all that we know about the atom is based on:
indirect observation
if an atom has more negative charges than positive charges it is said to be a:
negative ion
which particle has no charge?
neutron
which particle is the largest in terms of mass?
neutron
what stays the same in isotones?
neutrons
atoms in each period of the periodic table share what characteristic in common? a-number of protons b-number of electrons c- number of neutrons d- number of electron shells
number of electron shells
what are the groups of the periodic table organized by?
number of electrons in the outer most shell
electron shells refer to:
orbit of the electron
electron shells refer to:
orbits of the electrons
what stays the same in isotopes?
protons
what force must binding energy overcome in the nucleus?
protons repelling each other
who helped establish the organization of the atom through experimentation with alpha particles?
rutherford
what holds atoms together in a covalent bond?
shared electrons
what do zinc, iron, nickel, and oxygen have in common?
they are elements that exist in pure form
the element that does not fix exactly into one of the groups re called:
transitional metals
