Fill in the gaps in the following table, assuming each column represents a neutral atom.
Symbol ⁷⁹Br
Protons 25 82
Neutrons 30 64
Electrons 48 86
Mass no. 222 207

Complete the third row of the table.

검증된 단계별 안내

Identify the given information for each column: the number of protons, neutrons, electrons, and mass number.

Recall that the number of protons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of electrons.

Use the mass number formula: Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons, to find the missing values.

For the third column, calculate the number of protons by subtracting the number of neutrons from the mass number.

Since the atom is neutral, the number of electrons will be equal to the number of protons calculated in the previous step.>

주요 개념

질문에 올바르게 답하기 위해 반드시 이해해야 하는 핵심 개념들은 다음과 같습니다.

Atomic Structure

Atoms consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus, while neutrons are neutral particles also located in the nucleus. Electrons are negatively charged and orbit the nucleus. The number of protons defines the element, while the total number of protons and neutrons gives the atomic mass.

Isotopes

Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. This results in different atomic masses for the isotopes. For example, Bromine-79 (79Br) has 35 protons and 44 neutrons, while another isotope may have a different neutron count, affecting its mass number.

Mass Number

The mass number of an atom is the sum of its protons and neutrons. It is a whole number that represents the total mass of the nucleus. In the context of the table, filling in the mass number requires adding the number of protons and neutrons for each atom, which helps in identifying the specific isotope and its properties.
