Study Notes

Periodic Table

The periodic table organizes chemical elements
Elements are arranged by atomic number and recurring chemical properties
Elements are grouped into periods (rows) and groups (columns)
Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties
The table is used to predict the properties of elements
Elements are represented by a chemical symbol, atomic number, and atomic mass.

Atomic Structure

Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons
Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of an atom
Electrons orbit the nucleus in specific energy levels
The number of protons in an atom's nucleus determines its atomic number
The number of protons and neutrons determine its mass number.
Atomic mass is approximately equal to the number of protons and neutrons.
