 How does a neutral atom become a -2 ion?

 By acquiring two additional electrons.

200

Explain why average atomic mass on the periodic table is rarely a whole number.

Because it is a weighted average of all naturally occurring isotopes based on their percent abundance, rather than a single isotope's mass.

C (Carbon) (Metallic character increases going down a group).

500

Differentiate mass number vs. atomic mass vs. atomic number.

  • Atomic Number: Number of protons.

  • Mass Number: Protons + Neutrons (integer for a specific isotope).

  • Atomic Mass: Weighted average mass of all naturally occurring isotopes.
