Isotopes

1 Match the term to its definition. Write the correct letter in each box

a protons subatomic particles with a mass of 1 and


no charge
b mass number
atoms of an element with different
c isotopes number of neutrons

d neutrons subatomic particles with a mass of 1 and


a positive charge

total number of protons and neutrons in


an atom

2 The word 'abundance' is used to show the proportion of atoms of an element which are
a particular isotope. It is often shown as a . Fill in the blank

3 Why do chlorine and copper have relative atomic masses which are not whole numbers
i.e. 35.5Cl and 63.5Cu? Tick 1 correct answer
They contain half a proton.
They contain half a neutron.
They have lost half an electron.
They have gained half an electron.
They are determined from the isotopes of the elements.

4 Will the isotopes of hydrogen H-1, H-2 and H-3 have the same chemical properties?
Select the correct answer to explain why or why not. Tick 1 correct answer
Yes, as they have the same number of protons and a different number of neutrons
No, as they have a different number of neutrons
Yes, as they have the same number of electrons
Yes, as they have different number of neutrons
No, as they have the same number of protons and electrons

5 Match the isotopes to the number of neutrons. Use your periodic table to help. Write
the correct letter in each box

a Li-7 (8%) 4 neutrons

b Li-6 (92%) 36 neutrons

c Ne-20 (91%) 3 neutrons

d Ne-22 (9%) 34 neutrons

e Cu-65 (25%) 10 neutrons

f Cu-63 (75%) 12 neutrons

6 Many isotopes are radioactive and can be used for medical purposes, however their
abundance is very low. Calculate the abundance of Cr-50 when Cr-52 is 84.0%, Cr-53 is
9.5% and Cr-54 is 2.5%. Fill in the blank
