Test Description: Define isotope, unstable isotope, mass number vs atomic mass,determine neutron number if given mass number.
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) The atomic number of an element
A
changes when an atom of an element reacts with another element
B
is equal to the number of protons
C
can be different for different isotopes of the same element
D
is usually a decimal number (such as 13,4)
2) The mass number of an element
A
can be found by rounding off the atomic mass
B
is the sum of the elements protons and neutrons
C
is found at the bottom of an element's square on the periodic table
D
is the same for all atoms of an element
3) Isotopes of the same element
A
have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
B
have different numbers of protons, but the same number of neutron
C
have the same number of protons but different numbers of electrons.
D
have the same mass numbers
4) Atomic mass
A
is always a whole number
B
is equal to the number of protons plus the number of electrons in an atom
C
is the weighted average of the masses of the naturally occuring isotopes of an element.
D
cannot be found on the periodic table
5) An unstable isotope of an element
A
will never breakdown.
B
does not have a correct ratio of neutrons to protons in an atoms nucleus,
C
can only be produced in a laboratory
D
is a very rare occurance
6) Radiation
A
is the term used to describe the particles/energy that are emmitted during nuclear decay.
B
is rare in natural settings
C
is always dangerous and harmful to humans.
D
is released only from stable isotopes of elements.
7) Nuclear decay occurs when
A
atoms age and become fragile.
B
viruses infect nuclei and cause them to decompose
