Carbon--nonmetal

Boron--metalloid

Sodium--metal

300

groups

300

cut stones in half until they could no longer be divided

Democritus

400

smallest piece of matter that still has the properties of the element

atom

400

if the atomic number is 5 and the mass number is 10, how would you determine the number of neutrons

to find the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the mass number; 10-5=5 neutrons
