Are there only 3 types of atoms?

Heavy atoms such as uranium have the capacity to radioactively decay into other types of atoms such as lead. That is the closest I can come to identifying an atom that contains three kinds of atoms.


What is the name given to pairs of atoms such as protium and deuterium?

Those are different isotopes of the same element. Different isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons. There are a little over 100 known elements, but over 3000 different known isotopes.


How can there be more than 100 different atoms when there are only about 100 different elements?

There cannot be more than 100 different atoms. I think you are confusing atoms and molecules. There are millions upon millions of different molecules because molecules are combinations of the 100 atoms. These combinations can be any number of the same atoms or of different atoms in different combinations. For example, the so-called hydrocarbons. These are different combinations of hydrogen and carbon: 1 carbon atom combined with 4 hydrogen atoms: methane, same as the natural gas used in cooking and heating some homes. 2 carbon atoms combined with 6 hydrogan atoms: ethane, similar to rubbing alcohol 8 carbon atoms combined with 18 hyrogen atoms: octane, the main ingredient in gasoline you put in your car. So while there are only about 100 different atoms, these can be combined into limitless combinations with other atoms into a limitless number of different molecules.


A silver sample contains 52 atoms each having 60 neutrons and 48 atoms each having 62 neutrons What is the sample's average atomic mass?

The total mass of all the silver atoms would be 10,770,65(47+60) + 35(47+62) = 10,770 The total number of silver atoms is 100, 65 + 35 = 100 Dividing the total mass by the number of atoms gives us a 10770/100 = 107.7 for an atomic mass by these numbers.
