Positive = cation
Negative = anion
-ide = only element given
-ite/-ate = oxygen
-ite = less oxygen




Combustion = hydrocarbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water
Isotopes = different atoms of the same element → same no
...
of neutrons from nuclei
Period number = number of shells
Group number = number of outer shell electrons




Relative Atomic Mass (AR)









Weighted mean mass of electrons of each atom in an element on the scale where
12C = 12
1 atom of carbon = 1
...
g Chlorine 75% 35Cl
25% 37Cl
75/100 x 35 + 25/100 x 37 = 35
...
It is neutral as it has the same number of
protons and electrons
Ion = Charged particle that consists of 1+ atoms
...
It is neutral as it has the same number of protons and electrons

Relative Molecular Mass + Formula Mass
➢ Mass of each molecule on a scale where 1 atom of 12C = 12
➢ Sum of relative Atomic masses of each atom within the molecule
