Chapter 5, Problem 43EAP

Atomic Terminology Practice II.

a. What are the atomic number and atomic mass number of fluo-rine atoms with nine protons and ten neutrons? If we could add a proton to a fluorine nucleus, would the result still be fluorine? What if we added a neutron to a fluorine nucleus? Explain.

b. The most common isotope of gold has atomic number 79 and atomic mass number 197. How many protons and neutrons does the gold nucleus contain? If it is electrically neutral, how many electrons does it have? If it is triply ionized (three elec-trons lost), how many electrons does it have?

c. Uranium has atomic number 92. Its most common isotope is 238U (atomic mass number 238), but the form used in nuclear bombs and nuclear power plants is 235U (atomic mass number 235). How many neutrons are in each of these two isotopes of uranium?
