Summary Structure of an Atom
THAT IS IT. The last 8 pages are the essential basics of Chemistry i.e.
Peas are protons and are +ve.
Newts are neutral and no charge.
Electronic Robots are electrons and are negative.
A Tom cat is an atomic number and only eats peas.
So Atomic Number = Number Protons.
A Bull Mastiff is the mass number and bull mastiffs eat everything bar metal.
So Mass Number = Number Protons + Number Neutrons.
The Periodic Table is neutrally charged.
So Nº Protons must equal Nº Electrons.
When an element is shown as:
You know the bigger number is the Bull Mastiff (mass Nº) and the smaller number is a Tom cat (atomic Nº).
