Elements, Compounds & Mixtures

An element is a substance made of atoms with the same number of protons; it cannot be split chemically.
A compound is a pure substance of two or more elements chemically combined; it cannot be separated by physical means.
A mixture is a combination of substances not chemically combined; it can be separated by physical methods like filtration or evaporation.
Examples: element – oxygen; compound – carbon dioxide (CO₂); mixture – sand and water.

Atomic Structure

Atoms consist of a nucleus (protons + neutrons) surrounded by electrons in shells.
Protons have relative mass 1 and charge +1; neutrons have mass 1 and charge 0; electrons have negligible mass and charge –1.
The atomic number (Z) is the number of protons; it defines the element.
The mass number (A) is the total number of protons + neutrons.
Number of neutrons = mass number – atomic number.
In a neutral atom, number of electrons = number of protons.

Electronic Configuration

Electrons fill shells in order: first shell holds 2, second holds 8, third holds 8 (simplified model).
The electronic configuration is written as numbers separated by commas, e.g., carbon is 2,4.
The number of occupied shells equals the period number; the number of outer electrons equals the group number (for Groups I–VII).
Elements in the same group have the same number of outer-shell electrons.
Noble gases have full outer shells and are unreactive.

Isotopes

Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
They have the same chemical properties because they have the same electron arrangement.
Physical properties (e.g., density, melting point) may differ due to different masses.
Example: carbon-12 (⁶ protons, ⁶ neutrons) and carbon-14 (⁶ protons, ⁸ neutrons).

What are isotopes?

Atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

They have the same number of electrons in their outer shells, which determines chemical behaviour.

How do isotopes differ in physical properties?

Isotopes have different masses due to different numbers of neutrons, affecting physical properties like density, boiling point, and melting point.

One relative atomic mass unit is equal to 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom.

What is the valence shell?
