Steps of a nuclear reaction

1. An atom has an unstable nucleus 2. Radiation is emitted 3. The process of radioactive decay continues until the nucleus is stable 4. A stable non radioactive atom is formed

After years of studying (1.______________), Dalton was able to accurately determine the (2._______________) of the elements involved in the reactions. His conclusions resulted in the (3.____________), which helped to explain that (4.______________) in chemical reactions separate, (5.______________), or (6._____________), but are not created, (7._______________), or (8.________________).

1. Chemical reactions 2. Mass ratios 3. Atomic theory 4. Atoms 5. Combine 6. rearrange 7. Destroyed 8. Divided

Most of the area in the atom is made up of negatively charged (1.______________) traveling around the positively charged (2.______________).

1. Electrons 2. Nucleus

Dalton's atomic theory

1. Matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms 2. Atoms are indivisible and destructible *they are divisible 3. Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and chemical properties; atoms of a specific element are different of those from another element 4. Different atoms combine in simple whole-number ratios to form compounds 5. In a chemical reaction, atoms are separated combined, or rearranged

The mass of (1.__________) and (2.___________) are almost always equal to each other while the mass of the (3.______________) are really small.

1. Protons 2. Neutrons 3. Electrons

Each atom has a unique number of (1._____________). Since the overall charge of an atom is neutral the number of (2.____________) equals the number of (3.______________). *once you know the atomic number you can find the element

1. Protons 2. Protons 3. Electrons

The atoms is the (1.____________________________). When a group of atoms (2._____________) and act as a (3.________________), the result is known as a (4._______________).
