determine the mass number and atomic number of a chlorine atom that has 17 protons and 18 neutrons
atomic number is 17
atomic mass is 36

Dmitri Mendeleev
Classify the following elements as a metal, nonmetal, or metalloid: Carbon, Boron, Sodium
Carbon--nonmetal
Boron--metalloid
Sodium--metal
vertical columns in the periodic table are called ______
groups
