Elements which have two or more different types of atoms are known as multi-atomic elements.

eg;

HClO4, HNO3 etc.

What is a trans-uranium?

Trans-uranium elements are elements that have atomic numbers greater than uranium (atomic number 92). These elements are artificially produced in nuclear reactions and are typically highly radioactive. Examples include neptunium, plutonium, and americium.


What is the relationship between the atomic number and the elements identity?

The atomic number of an element determines its identity. Each element has a unique atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus of its atoms. This number defines the element and distinguishes it from other elements on the periodic table.


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.)


Which group of the main group elements contains the largest elements?

Group 18 (Noble Gases) contains the largest main group elements because they have the highest atomic numbers and largest atomic radii among the main group elements.


What happens where two elements have the same atomic number?

When two elements have the same atomic number, it means they are isotopes of each other. Isotopes have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. This results in subtle differences in their atomic mass and stability.

What dictates the charge an ion will have?

depending on the valence electrons in the ion, and (if it is paired with other elements, like multi-atomic ions) what the charge of each element in the multi-atomic ion is. to find how many valence electrons an element has, just look at what group it is in in the periodic table. :) hope i helped!


Does chloroform have a atomic number?

No it does not have. Atomic number i for elements.


Can elements be ordered by there atomic number?

Yes, elements can be ordered by their atomic number. The atomic number of an element corresponds to the number of protons in an atom's nucleus, and elements are arranged in the periodic table from lowest to highest atomic number.


What does the atomic number and atomic mass have to do with the arrangement of the elements on the periodic table?

The elements on the periodic table are arranged in order of increasing atomic number.


How do you tell the size of an elements atomic radius?

The atomic radius of chemical elements is expressed in picometers (pm).


What are the examples of mono atomic elements?

All of the metallic elements and the noble gases are normally mono-atomic.


How atomic number better than atomic mass?

No two elements may have the same atomic number. But two elements may have same atomic mass. Hence atomic number is better than atomic mass.


What elements does the atomic bomb use?

There are many different elements involved in the construction of an atomic bomb, but the elements that actually cause an atomic explosion are either uranium (specifically the U235 isotope) or plutonium.


What are the arrangements of elements by atomic number called?

The arrangements of elements by atomic number is called the periodic table. This table organizes elements based on their atomic structure and properties, allowing for easy classification and comparison of elements.


Elements were originally placed in order of atomic now they are placed in order of atomic?

Elements were originally placed in order of atomic massnow they are placed in order of atomic number


What does elements with a higher atomic number than uranium have?

Elements with a higher atomic number than uranium belong to the transuranium elements, which are all man-made and generally unstable due to their high atomic numbers. These elements typically undergo radioactive decay, leading to the formation of lighter elements.


What is the atomic number for the elements nitrogen?

Nitrogens Atomic # is 7
