Biol 210 General Biology 1 Lecture 2 Review Chemical Bonds Atomic Structure Nucleus Protons, mass = 1, charge = +1 Neutrons, mass = 1, charge = 0 Electrons Mass = negligible Charge = -1 # e? = # protons Outer shell (most energenic) e??s form chemical bonds Isotopes Some isotopes are stable, such as 1H2 Other isotopes are unstable, such as 1H3. When tritium decays, it gives off ? particle. Because the mass of an element includes the average isotope abundance, the mass and the atomic weight differ slightly Helium, He, atomic number 4, mass 4.003 Important Elements C HOPKINS CaFe Mg C = carbon H = hydrogen O = oxygen P = phosphorous K = potassium I = iodine N = nitrogen S = sulfur Ca = calcium Fe = iron Mg = magnesium Na = sodium Cl = chloride
