An electron that is in the highest energy level of an atom and determines the atom's chemical properties is called a valence electron. Valence electrons are involved in the interactions between atoms, such as forming bonds with other atoms in chemical reactions.
Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, which determines the element's chemical properties. The differing number of neutrons in isotopes does not significantly affect the element's chemical behavior.
They have similar chemical properties because isotopes of an element have the same number of electrons as an atom of that element. The electron arrangement is the same owing to same chemical properties. However they have different numbers of neutrons, which affects the mass number. Mass number determines the physical properties such as boiling/melting/density etc.
It's hard to answer this question, because it has a very large indirect effect, but very little direct effect. The number of protons in the nucleus determines what the element is, which in turn determines its chemical propertes. However, the nucleus does not itelf take part in chemical reactions.
Elements in the periodic table have predictable chemical properties based on their position because they have the same number of valence electrons. This determines how they will react with other elements and molecules. The periodic table's structure helps scientists predict the behavior of elements based on their properties.
It determines its chemical properties
valence
The number and arrangement of electrons.
MEOW.
All chemical properties are determined by electronic structure.
Electrons.
The physical properties of minerals are determined by their chemical composition and atomic structure.
The number of electrons is very important.
The arrangement of electrons in atoms determines their chemical properties. Specifically, the number of electrons in an atom's outermost energy level (valence electrons) and how easily those electrons can be gained, lost, or shared with other atoms dictate the chemical behavior of an element.
It determines which element, which all have their own properties so yes. The mass number just determines the isotope which only affects their stability
