2. Mass number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_number

   For 12 C, the isotopic mass is exactly 12, since the atomic mass unit is defined as 1/12 of the mass of 12 C. For other isotopes, the isotopic mass is usually within 0.1 u of the mass number. For example, 35 Cl (17 protons and 18 neutrons) has a mass number of 35 and an isotopic mass of 34.96885. [7]

3. List of elements by atomic properties - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_elements_by_atomic...

   This is a list of chemical elements and their atomic properties, ordered by atomic number (Z).. Since valence electrons are not clearly defined for the d-block and f-block elements, there not being a clear point at which further ionisation becomes unprofitable, a purely formal definition as number of electrons in the outermost shell has been used.

4. Atomic mass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_mass

   Binding energy per nucleon of common isotopes. A graph of the ratio of mass number to atomic mass would be similar. The amount that the ratio of atomic masses to mass number deviates from 1 is as follows: the deviation starts positive at hydrogen-1, then decreases until it reaches a local minimum at helium-4. Isotopes of lithium, beryllium, and ...

5. Atomic number - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_number

   The atomic number can be used to uniquely identify ordinary chemical elements. In an ordinary uncharged atom, the atomic number is also equal to the number of electrons. For an ordinary atom which contains protons, neutrons and electrons, the sum of the atomic number Z and the neutron number N gives the atom's atomic mass number A.

6. Atomicity (chemistry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomicity_(chemistry)

   Atomicity is the total number of atoms present in a molecule of an element. For example, each molecule of oxygen (O 2) is composed of two oxygen atoms. Therefore, the atomicity of oxygen is 2. [1] In older contexts, atomicity is sometimes equivalent to valency. Some authors also use the term to refer to the maximum number of valencies observed ...

7. Isotope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotope

   Each atomic number identifies a specific element, but not the isotope; an atom of a given element may have a wide range in its number of neutrons. The number of nucleons (both protons and neutrons) in the nucleus is the atom's mass number, and each isotope of a given element has a different mass number.

8. Periodic table - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

   Each distinct atomic number therefore corresponds to a class of atom: these classes are called the chemical elements. [5] The chemical elements are what the periodic table classifies and organizes. Hydrogen is the element with atomic number 1; helium, atomic number 2; lithium, atomic number 3; and so on.

9. Effective atomic number (compounds and mixtures) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_atomic_number...

   is the atomic number of each element. An example is that of water (H 2 O), made up of two hydrogen atoms (Z=1) and one oxygen atom (Z=8), the total number of electrons is 1+1+8 = 10, so the fraction of electrons for the two hydrogens is (2/10) and for the one oxygen is (8/10).
