(I) atomic number (ii) Mass number (iii)isotopes and(iv) isobars
Answers
Answer:
Mass number:The number of the neutrons and protons present in the nucleus is called mass number. ... Isobars: Isobars are the same elements having different atomic number but same mass number. USES OF ISOTOPES: (a) It is used as a uranium for the nuclear reactor (b) It is used as cobalt for treating blood cancer......
Answer:
Explanation:
✍️ Atomic number of an atom is decided by the number of protons present in the atom.
✍️ It is denoted by 'Z'.
✍️ All atoms of an element have same number of protons.
Example: Sodium(Na) has 11 protons hence it's atomic number will be 11.
✍️After studying about the sub-atomic particles, we can say that the mass is an atom is due to protons and neutrons present in its nucleus.
✍️ Therefore mass of an atom resides in its nucleus in the form of nucleons.
✍️ Mass number is denoted by A.
Example: Mass number of carbon is 12 i.e., the atom has 6 protons and 6 neutrons.
Mass number of an atom is the sum of all protons and neutrons present in nucleus.
✍️ Isotopes are the atoms of same element which have same atomic number( number of protons) but different mass numbers.
Example: (i) Isotopes of hydrogen
✍️ Protium
✍️ Deuterium
✍️ Tritium
✍️ Isobars are the atoms of different elements with different atomic numbers but same mass number.
Example: Argon and Calcium are isobars of each other
