Remember that an atom has an equal number of protons (+) and electrons (-) and so it’s overall charge is zero. Mg*? (Magnesium as a +2 cation) If the ion has a positive charge, subtract the charge’s numerical value from the number of protons to find the number of electrons. (12 protons - 2 = 10 electrons) Cl (Chlorine as a -1 anion) If the ion has a negative charge, add the charge’s numerical value to the number of protons to find the number of electrons. (17 protons + 1 = 18 electrons) Periodic Table of the Elements Name Date Class CHAPTER 6 REVIEW ACTIVITY —_— Subatomic Particles Text Reference: Section 6-19 ‘The three particles found inside the atom are the proton (charge = +1), the-neutron (charge = 0), and the electron (charge = —1). In an uncharged atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons. However, an atom may become charged by the gain or loss of electrons. The net charge is then the algebraic sum of the charges of its protons and'electrons. "The number of protons in an atom is called its atomic number. The total number of protons and neutrons is called its mass number. Each of the exercises below represents the neutral or charged atom with the name and net charge given.

These atoms differ in the number of neutrons. The average atomic mass is the weighted average of alll the isotopes of an element.
