How can you determine an atoms identity?

By the number of protons it has.


Which modeling method only gives information about the number and identity of atoms in a molecule?

The molecular formula provides information about the number and type of atoms in a molecule. This formula gives the actual number of each type of atom in a molecule but does not provide information on the arrangement or connectivity of the atoms within the molecule.


What determent's an atoms identity?

An atom's identity is determined by the number of protons in its nucleus, which is called its atomic number. This number determines the element to which the atom belongs. Electrons can be gained or lost to form ions, but as long as the number of protons remains the same, the atom's identity remains unchanged.


Atomic theory explains what?

Atomic theory explains that matter is composed of small particles called atoms, which are indivisible and retain their identity in chemical reactions. It also explains how atoms combine to form molecules through bonds and how these interactions determine the properties of matter.


What is C5H5O2?

C5H5O2 is the Empirical Formula of Ferulic acid, a compound found in plants. However not to be confused with it's Molecular Formula which is C10H10O4


What changes the identity of matter by rearranging the atoms?

This is a chemical reaction.


Atoms of different elements are different because they have different numbers of what type of particle?

Atoms of different elements are different because they have different numbers of protons in their nuclei. Protons carry a positive charge and determine the element's identity.


Why doesn't an atoms identity change during a chemical change?

The energy involved in chemical reactions is not so strong to affect the identity of atoms; only nuclear reactions can modify an atom.


How can scientists determine whether the atoms formed are a new element or new isotope of a known element?

This information is obtained by the study of the decay chain of this product.


Do atoms or molecules change identity when a change of state occurs?

yes
