In nature, isotopes occur in various In nature, isotopes occur in various percentages. The higher the percent the percentages. The higher the percent the more abundant.more abundant.
In order to figure out the average mass of In order to figure out the average mass of each element the percent abundance and each element the percent abundance and mass of each isotope need to be consideredmass of each isotope need to be considered

SUMMARYSUMMARY
1. The Atomic Number of an atom = number of
protons in the nucleus.
2. The Atomic Mass of an atom = number of
Protons + Neutrons in the nucleus.
3. The number of Protons = Number of Electrons.
4. Electrons orbit the nucleus in shells.
5. Each shell can only carry a set number of electrons.
ATOMIC STRUCTUREATOMIC STRUCTURE
There are two ways to represent the atomic
structure of an element or compound;
1. Electronic Configuration
2. Dot & Cross Diagrams
ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATIONELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION
With electronic configuration elements are
represented numerically by the number of
electrons in their shells and number of shells. For
example;
N
Nitrogen

2 in 1st shell
5 in 2nd shell
configuration = 2 , 5
