39. EXPLAIN TO A 3rd Grader:
How would we solve this word problem?
Together, Juan and Jordan have a total
of 48 cookies. Juan has 25 cookies.
How many cookies does Jordan have?
TOTAL: 48 cookies
Juan: 25 cookies
Jordan has 23 cookies
40. Atomic Number
(# of protons
7 in the
Element nucleus)
Symbol N
Nitrogen

41. Identifying Elements
• Each element has a different number of
Protons
Protons = Atomic Number
Electrons = number of Protons
Neutrons = Atomic Mass
Number - Atomic
Number
( Bottom - Top)
42. In NORMAL ATOMS….
# of protons = # of electrons
Let’s practice:
Boron: 5 electrons
Helium: 2 electrons
Carbon: 6 electrons
48. Let’s try it…. 4
