How to tell protons neutrons mass numbers atomic weights from periodic table?
atomic weights is usually the number that has decimal points. so whenever you see a number with decimal point on periodic table, then that is the atomic mass.
What three things can each square in the periodic table tell you besides the name of the elements?
*Symbol*Atomic number *Relative atomic mass
How do you tell figure out the atomic mass?
Atomic mass is the number of protons + the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. On the periodic table, the average atomic mass of an element will the be number at the bottom of each box.
What can you tell about the elements from the way they are ordered in the periodic table?
The elements are lined up in order of increasing atomic number (number of protons).
What do you know from an elements location on the periodic table?
You can tell how many protons and electrons they have through atomic number. And you can find the atomic mass wiphich will then allow you to find the number of neutrons.
How do you tell the atomic number of an atom?
The atomic number of each element is on the periodic table. The elements are arranged on the periodic table in order of increasing atomic number.
What is the benefit of organizing the periodic table in columns?
the benefit is that you can tell the atomic number atomic mass its symbol and where it is on the periodic table
What does each periodic number in the periodic table tell about the atomic structure?
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and the number of neutrons in that atom.
What are three things that the periodic table can tell me?
the properties, the atomic number, and atomic mass
What attribute on the periodic table would tell you the number of protons in the nucleus?
Atomic number
Does the periodic table tell the number of protons?
the atomic number of an element is same as the number of protons
What does each square tell anout an element in the periodic table?
its atomic number
How can you tell how many protons are in an element of the periodic table?
The number of protons is the atomic number of the element.
How to tell protons neutrons mass numbers atomic weights from periodic table?
atomic weights is usually the number that has decimal points. so whenever you see a number with decimal point on periodic table, then that is the atomic mass.
What information does the atomic number tell?
How many protons/ electrons that element has and where it is on the periodic table.
What is atomic number and what relaTionship dose it have to the periodic table?
i dont know u tell me
How is the periodic table used to describe atomic structure?
The periodic table can be used to describe atomic structure by using the period to tell you how many shells (principle quantum number) there are in an element, and the group number can be used to tell you the number of valence electrons in the outermost shell.
