What is the difference between atoms elements and the periodic table?

Valence electrons are the electrons on the outermost shell of an atom. Elements on the Periodic Table is the substance. For example titanium is an element, oxogen is an element. The elements on the periodic table are classified by their atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. Also for each element there is the Atomic Mass. The atomic mass is the number of protons plus neutrons. The units for atomic mass is amu (atomic mass units).
Elements in the same column have the same number of valence electrons, so they tend to behave similarly.

∙ 11y agoThe difference between each element on the periodic table is the number of protons in the nucleus. If several atoms have the same amount of protons but a different number of neutrons then they are called isotopes, but they are still the SAME element. For example Hydrogen gas one proton in its nucleus; Deuterium has one proton and one neutron and Tritium has one proton and two neutrons, so they are all still hydrogen in that they have one proton, regardless of the number of neutrons.

What is periodic chemistry?
A periodic chemistry is a periodic table. A periodic table is a tab,e with atoms and elements. Whatever we eat or use have atoms or elements.
What are elemental ions?
In the Periodic Table of elements you have elements, these elements represent neutral atoms of elements, ions are just like neutral atoms, the only difference is the have less or more electrons in the orbital. So Na is sodium atom and Na+ is sodium ion
What tells you how heavy an elements atoms are compared with atoms of other elements?
the atomic weights on the periodic table
How many atoms are in the periodic table?
118 elements
The difference in Atoms and DNA?
Atoms are the basis of physical matter, and elements are made of atoms. DNA is a very complex molecule made of many atoms. It is like the difference between concrete blocks and an apartment building.
Which two elements on the periodic table have the biggest electronegativity difference between two atoms?
cesium and fluorine

What is similar for elements located next to one another anywhere on the periodic table?
The difference in atomic number between adjacent elements is always one (1).
How are atoms held together on the periodic table?
Periodic table is an arrangement of elements where the elements are arranged in the increasing order of their atomic number. The atoms on the periodic table are not held by any force.
What tells you how heavy elements atoms are compared with atoms of other elements?
the atomic weights on the Periodic Table
What tells you how heavy an elements atoms are compared with atoms of other elements?
the atomic weights on the periodic table
Which elements on the periodic table have the lowest electronegativity?
Atoms to the left on the periodic table Atoms with a large atomic radius
How many atoms are in the periodic table?
118 elements
What are atoms and elements on the periodic table?
The periodic table contain all chemical elements. For the table see the link below.
The periodic table is based on an element's what?
The periodic table is based on an element's number of atoms. The elements are arranged from least to most number of atoms.
