Proton
Neutron
Electron


Proton and Neutron – NUCLEUS of the atom
(center)
Electrons – found rapidly moving in energy
levels (energy clouds)



Proton = Positive (+)
Neutron = Neutral (0)
Electron = Negative (e-)

Remember – the electrons are SOOOO LIGHT
that they are not part of the mass (atomic
weight)



There is an equal number of protons and
electrons
If there are more protons – then the atom
would have an overall POSITIVE charge
If there are more electrons – then the atom
would have an overall NEGATIVE charge

There is also phosphorus and sulfur, but I
only want you to focus on the four listed
above.

The mass number for Calcium is

The atomic number for Beryllium is

The symbol for Krypton is


The mass number for Calcium is


The number of molecules present
LARGE NUMBER written before the element
symbol
Ex: 4CO2
There are 4 molecules of carbon dioxide





The number of atoms present
SMALL NUMBER written within the chemical
formula
Ex: 4CO2
There are 8 atoms of oxygen
Remember to distribute (4 x 2=8)

How many molecules are present?
How many atoms of Carbon are present?

How many atoms of Hydrogen are present?

How many TOTAL atoms are present?


How many molecules are present? 5
How many atoms of Carbon are present?
10 (5x2 – remember to distribute)
How many atoms of Hydrogen are present?
20 (5x4 – remember to distribute)
How many TOTAL atoms are present?
30 (distribute and then add up)
(5x2) = 10
(5x4) = 20
10 + 20 = 30


In the outermost energy level of an atom

8 electrons!

8 – OCTET rule
◦ The outermost energy level will be complete when it
contains 8 electrons.
◦ Atoms will gain/lose/share electrons to reach this
stability!

****EXCEPTION****
◦ Hydrogen and Helium follow the DUET RULE (can
only have 2 electrons in the outermost shell to be
stable and unreactive)
A.
B.
C.
D.
Carbon
Neon
Helium
Magnesium
A.
B.
C.
D.
Carbon – 4 opportunities to bond (vacancies)
Neon
Helium
Magnesium – 6 opportunities to bond
(vancancies)
Neon is stable because it is a noble gas – already
has 8 electrons
Helium is stable because it is also a noble gas –
but follows duet rule so it has 2 electrons


Single Bond
Double Bond
Triple Bond

Single Bond
◦ Atoms share 2 electrons (1 pair)

Double Bond
◦ Atoms share 4 electrons (2 pairs)

Triple Bond
◦ Atoms share 6 electrons (3 pairs)
