NUMBER of NEUTRONSNUMBER of NEUTRONS• For any given element, the number of neutrons
plus protons equal the mass number.

IonsIons• Substances that have a positive or
negative charge.
• Created by the change in ELECTRONS.
• Protons and Neutrons are determined in the same way as atoms.

• The number of electrons may be calculated as:

IsotopesIsotopes• Substances that have the same atomic
number but different mass numbers
• Created by the change in NEUTRONS.
• Protons and Electrons are determined
in the same way as atoms.
