Why is the atomic mass number not a whole number?

We can find Atomic Mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.


What is the relationship btw atomic mass and atomic mass number?

We can find atomic mass and mass number in chemical elements. Atomic mass is about weight of the atom. Mass number is about total of neutrons and protons.


What is the number in front of an element called?

atomic number


What is the number on top of an element called?

The Atomic Number


Who invented piriodic table?

Dmitri Mendeleev created the first periodic table according to atomic mass in 1869. Others before Mendeleev had organized the elements according to their properties and were able to discern periodicity, although Mendeleev is generally accepted as the creator of the table.With the information he gathered about the elements, he was able to see that there were missing elements that hadn't been discovered. He could figure out the atomic masses of the missing elements by averaging the atomic masses of the elements above and below the missing one. One such element, which he called "eka-silicon" (eventually Ge) was missing, but with understanding of the patterns the periodic table made, he predicted the elements appearance, melting point, atomic mass, density, formula of oxide, and formula of chloride.Throughout the years, other scientists were able to find or create these missing elements to form the table we know today. Today's periodic table is ordered by atomic number instead of atomic mass (as Mendeleev had started). Henry Moseley was the first to order the elements by atomic number so elements would fit together in groups/families and periods better in 1913.

Radioactive elements comprise a majority?

Yes. Stable elements are 83 elements. all elements above that of atomic number 83 (Bismuth) are radioactive. Radioactive isotopes are of the order of 1500 radioactive isotope.


What are the radioactive elements with atomic number from 90 to 103 in the periodic table called?

Actinide Series.


What element continue to decay until they finally become stable?

All elements above the atomic number of 83 are radioactive, but two elements that are under it are also radioactive. They are technetium (atomic number 43) and promethium (atomic number 61). Radioactive elements are elements that decay until stable. =)


Do radioactive elements differ in atomic number?

yes


What are the ten elements in thre periodic table that are radioactive?

all elements after uranium (atomic number 92) are radioactive.


How are the elements with atomic numbers 43 and 61 are unique?

The element with atomic numbers 43 (Technetium) and 61 (Promethium) are unique because they are the only radioactive elements before the start of the bulk of the radioactive elements. The bulk of the radioactive elements begins at atomic number 84 (Polonium). These are significant as they aren't primordial and are only found due to radioactive decay.


What name is given to elements with an atomic number greater than 92?

They are called the trans-uranic elements. They are either synthetic or the rare product of radioactive decay.


Which alkaline earth metal is radioactive?

Radium. Elements with an atomic number greater than 83 are always radioactive.


Which elements in the peridoic table are radioactive elements?

All elements from atomic number 84 (Polonium - Po) and onwards are radioactive, although ones that have not been observed cannot be confirmed.


What is the first radioactive element number?

Of elements that have no stable isotopes, technetium has the lowest atomic number, which is 43.


What family of metals are all radioactive?

Actinoids, and generally all the elements from polonium (atomic number 84) to ununoctium (atomic number 118).


What elements are radioactive?
