Two Atoms Represent the Same Element if

In this worksheet students draw the Lewis dot structure for each. Atoms of the same element ie atoms with the same number of protons with different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes.

Label

Cut out the.

. A Lewis structure is one where element symbols represent atoms and dots represent their electrons. Molecules of most elements are made up of two or more atoms of the same element while compounds are made of atoms of two or more different elements. In print we use roman numerals in parentheses to represent the charge on the ion so these two iron ions would be represented as the ironII cation and the ironIII cation respectively.

Then play a game to test your ideas. Build an atom out of protons neutrons and electrons and see how the element charge and mass change.
