Directions: Select the letter of the BEST answer and write it on the space
provided.
_______1. Which of the following BEST describe isotopes?
A. Same nuclear charge but different number of electrons.
B. Same number of protons but different mass numbers.
C. Same number of electrons but different numbers of protons.
D. Same number of neutrons but different atomic number.
_____4. How may atoms of the same element differ? They may have different:
A. Number of neutrons C. Number of valence electrons
B. Number of protons D. Different kinds of subparticles
2
Directions: Identify the proton, neutron, nucleus, and electron in the
diagram below.

Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons or mass
numbers. Since the number of protons (the identity of an element) are fixed for all
naturally occurring atoms of the same element, isotopes can only differ in the
number of neutrons. This is referred by the mass number assigned to its chemical
symbol.
In terms of symbol, there are two ways of writing the symbols of an isotope.
H -1 H–2 H–3
Isotopes of Hydrogen

Uranium - 235 Nuclear power plant and naval propulsion system fuel production

Californium - Determine moisture content of soil- important for road construction and
252 building industries.
Methane (CH4)

monoatomic or polyatomic (charged nonmetallic substance). It is also essential to
identify the correct charge of each symbol of the ions. But how will you know what
charged is to be assigned in each element? Let me show you how ☺
Look at this portion of the periodic table. It will serve as a guide on how you will
assign charges for elements in each group.
