Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the atoms of different elements have the same atomic number or not is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Each element has a definite number of protons in its nucleus. The number of protons present in the atomic nucleus is known as atomic number. The mass number is the sum of total number of protons and neutrons.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Answer to Problem 1CE

The atoms of different elements cannot have the same atomic number.

Explanation of Solution

The number of protons present in the atomic nucleus is known as atomic number. The atoms of different elements have different number of protons. Therefore, the atoms of different of elements have different atomic number.

Therefore, the atoms of different elements cannot have the same atomic number.

Conclusion

The atoms of different elements cannot have the same atomic number.
