Activity 1: Atomic Structure

Let us review what you learned in your previous lesson. Use the terms in the word
box to label the diagram of an atom.

Activity 3: Sub-atomic Particles


Match the correct statements with the word in the box. Write the letter that corresponds to
the statements in each box.
PROTON NEUTRON ELECTRON
B. Positively-charged D. Neutral particle, has no A. Negatively-charged
particle charge F. Mass is insignificant
E. Equal to the atomic C. Contributes to atomic compare to proton and
number of the atom. mass. neutron
A. Negatively-charged
B. Positively-charged particle
C. Contributes to atomic mass.
D. Neutral particle, has no charge
E. Equal to the atomic number of the atom.
F. Mass is insignificant compare to proton and neutron
Activity 4: Let’s Count!

A. Using the diagram below, answer the questions that follow.

1. 6 How many protons does the atom have?


2. 6 How many neutrons does the atom have?
3. 6 How many electrons does the atom have?
4. 6 What is the atomic number of the atom?
5. 12 What is the mass number of the atom?
B. Complete each atomic card below. Mass numbers are rounded to
the nearest whole number.
Activity 5: Let’s Get Charged!

For Cations, Number of electrons = number of protons – charge


For example:

7
Li +1 Atomic Number. = 3 Number of Proton = 3
3
Mass Number = 7 Number of Electron = 3-1 = 2

For Anions, Number of electrons = number of protons + charge


For example:
19 -1
F Atomic Number = 9 Number of Proton = 9
9
Mass Number = 19 Number of Electron = 9+1 = 10

Part A. Fill up this table. Refer to the periodic table at the end of this module.
Part B. Give the atomic number, number of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Use a periodic
table to help you fill in the chart below.

Activity 6: Fill the Gaps!

Let’s see if you can connect one statement to another. Do the activity below. Fill in
the blanks with the correct word that will complete the statement. Use the terms listed in the
box.
An atom is the smallest part of an element which still retains the (1.) properties of that
element. Atoms are made up of three basic particles, the proton, neutron and the (2.)
electron. Protons have a positive charge and are located in the (3.)nucleus of the atom. (4.)
Neutrons have no charge, and are also to be found in the nucleus. Electrons have a (5.)
negative charge and are found orbiting around the nucleus. Protons and neutrons have a
mass of (6.) one atomic mass unit (a.m.u.). Electrons have a much (7.) smaller mass than a
proton or neutron. The number of electrons in an atom of an element is equal to the number
of (8.) protons in the same atom.
The (9.) atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in an atom of that
element. The (10.) mass number of an atom is equal to the sum of the number of protons
and neutrons in that atom. The number of neutrons is calculated by (11.) subtracting the
atomic number from the mass number.

Isotopes
● Isotopes are atoms with the same number of protons but that have a different
number of neutrons and therefore different mass number too.

● Isotopes of Carbon are shown below:

Table 3. Isotopes of Carbon

PART I. Answer the questions based on the above information.


1. What is an isotope? Isotopes are atoms with the same number of protons but that have a
different number of neutrons and therefore different mass numbers too.
2. What does the number next to isotopes signify? The mass number of the isotope.
3. How can you tell isotopes of the same element apart? By the number of neutrons they
each have or their mass numbers.

PART II. For each of the following isotopes, write the number of protons, neutrons, and
electrons. Assume all atoms are neutral.
