How are the atomic numbers and the atomic masses of the elements related to how the elements are arranged on peridoic table?

Elements are arranged in a periodic table by atomic number, lower on top and left. Atomic masses have no direct relationship to the arrangement of atoms, although generally atoms with higher atomic numbers will have higher atomic masses. (There are at least three exceptions for atoms with atomic numbers differing by 1.)


Where are the isotopes of the same elements having different atomic masses placed in the periodic table?

Isotopes of the same element with different atomic masses are placed in the same position on the periodic table because they have the same number of protons and electrons. The atomic number, which determines an element's position on the periodic table, is the same for all isotopes of an element.


Which term describes atoms with different atomic masses due to varying numbers of neutrons?

Isotopes describe atoms with different atomic masses due to varying numbers of neutrons.


What are atoms of the same element thay have different atomic masses?

Atoms of the same element that have different atomic masses are called isotopes. Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. This results in variations in atomic mass while maintaining the same chemical properties.


What atoms has different masses but the same atomic number?

Isotopes of an element have different masses but the same atomic number. Isotopes have the same number of protons and electrons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei.

Why don27t elements in the periodic table have whole numbers for their atomic masses?

Because the masses of protons, neutrons and electrons are not whole numbers.


Why the atomic mass numbers listed for elements on the Periodic Table are not whole numbers.?

Why are atomic masses of elements not generally whole numbers? The atomic masses listed on the periodic table are a weighted AVERAGE of an element'sisotopes. ... An element's atomic number is the number of protons in its nucleus. Number of protons specifies atom type.


Which statement best explains why most atomic masses on the periodric table are decimal numbers?

Most atomic masses on the periodic table are decimal numbers because they are weighted averages of the masses of all isotopes of an element, taking into account their relative abundance. Since isotopes have different masses, the atomic mass is typically not a whole number.


State the periodic law on which Mendeleev's Periodic table was based and why and how this periodic law changed?

Mendeleev's Periodic Table was based on the periodic law which states that the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic masses. This law changed with the discovery of atomic number by Moseley which stated that the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic numbers, leading to a more accurate and modern periodic table based on atomic number.


What does a periodic table have?

a modern periodic table should have the 118 elements, their atomic numbers, and their masses. to find the number of protons and electrons, they are the same as the atomic number. to find the neutrons, subtract the protons from the mass.


What are the atomic number and mass of the animals?

Animals are not atoms and have neither an atomic number nor an atomic mass.

Define periodic law?

Properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic masses.


Why do we need atoms?

According to modern Periodic Table Atomic numbers are the fundamentals in order to explain the properties of an atom.One thing more and that is the concept of isotopes also make the atomic masses less strong to explain atomic properties which has no effect on atomic numbers.


How were the atomic number and the atomic masses of the elements determined?

Atomic masses are determined by mass spectrometry. The atomic number is identic with the number of protons in the atom - depends on position in the periodic table.


Is the mass and atomic mass the same?

No. The atomic weight is the number on the Periodic Table and is a weighted average of the atomic masses.


What do you notice about the atomic masses as move from the left to the right on periodic table?

As you move from left to right on the periodic table, the atomic masses generally increase. This is because the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom also increases as you move across a period.
