9. What are the atomic numbers of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen?
Carbon = 6, Nitrogen = 7, Oxygen = 8
Explain the difference between an oxygen atom and a carbon atom.
Oxygen has 8 protons. Carbon has 6 protons.

10. Neutrons and Isotopes
• Isotopes are atoms of the same element
that have different numbers of neutrons.
Most elements have several isotopes.
Same Different

11. How do the carbon isotopes differ?
Carbon isotopes have different numbers of neutrons

12. Atomic Number vs. Mass Number

protons protons and neutrons
Hint :
# of neutrons = mass # - protons

13. Average Atomic Mass
The average atomic
mass of an element is
the average mass of the
element’s isotopes,
weighted according to
the abundance of each
isotope.

14. How is the average atomic mass
calculated?
The abundance of each isotope is changed to decimal form.
The mass of each isotope is multiplied by it’s corresponding
decimal percentage. All the values are added together to
determine the average atomic mass
0.989 x 12 = 11.868
0.0101 x 13= + 0.143
