Q: Given the isotopic abundances and masses for chlorine: $$^{35}Cl (75.78$$%, 34.969 amu) and $$^{37}Cl (24.22$$%, 36.966 amu), calculate the atomic weight of chlorine.

$$(0.7578 \times 34.969) + (0.2422 \times 36.966) = 35.45$$ amu

Q: What is the maximum number of electrons that can occupy the third principal energy level ($$n=3) of an $$atom?

$$2n^2 = 2$$ \times $$3^2 = 18$ electrons

Question 1

Which subatomic particle is responsible for the identity of an element, and how is this reflected in the periodic table?

Accepted Answer

The proton; it determines the atomic number, which is used to arrange elements in the periodic table.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

$$35 - 17 = 18$$ neutrons

Question 3

Which of the following statements about isotopes is correct?

Accepted Answer

Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

Question 4

Given the isotopic abundances and masses for chlorine: $$^{35}Cl (75.78$$%, 34.969 amu) and $$^{37}Cl (24.22$$%, 36.966 amu), calculate the atomic weight of chlorine.

Accepted Answer

$$(0.7578 	imes 34.969) + (0.2422 	imes 36.966) = 35.45$$ amu
