WORKSHEET
1. Chemical formulas can have three components.
a) The ________________ which are represented by a single uppercase letter, or represented by an
uppercase letter followed by a lowercase letter. This tells you the types of elements in the compound.
b) The ________________ which are numbers that are found on the lower ________________- hand side
of each element symbol. This tells you the number of ________________ of this element in the
molecule. If an element symbol has no subscript next to it, then this indicates that there is only
________________ atom of this element in the molecule.
c) The ________________ which surround some groups of atoms indicate that the numbers of all of the
atoms inside the bracket need to be ________________ by the ________________ on the outside of
the bracket found on the lower ________________ - hand side of that bracket.

1. The 3 particles of the atom are:
a. ________________________
b. ________________________
c. ________________________
Their respective charges are:
a. ________________________
b. ________________________
c. ________________________
2. The number of protons in one atom of an element determines the atom’s ____________________, and the
number of electrons determines the _________________________ of the element.
3. The atomic number tells you the number of ___________________________ in one atom of an element. It also
tells you the number of __________________________ in a neutral atom of that element. The atomic number
gives the “identity” of an element as well as its location on the periodic table. No two different elements will
have the ____________________ atomic number.
4. The ______________________ of an element is the average mass of an element’s naturally occurring atom, or
isotopes, taking into account the ____________________ of each isotope.
5. The _______________________ of an element is the total number of protons and neutrons in the
___________________ of the atom.
6. The mass number is used to calculate the number of ______________________ in one atom of an element. In
order to calculate the number of neutrons you must subtract the ______________________ from the
______________________.
