relative atomic mass which is not close to whole number.
ii) *he relative atomic mass is a weighted average of the relative isotopic masses of the
different isotopes (weighted i.e. in the proportions in which they occur).
iii) *he relative atomic mass of a single isotope is called its re!tive isotopic mss.
*ypes of isotopes (enrichment and self@study)
Isotopes can be divided into two types @ radioactive and non@radioactive. 4adioactive
isotopes give out radiation. -ost isotopes in the air and the ground are non@radioactive.

5n atom can be pictured as a small nucleus surrounded by a much larger volume of e'tranuclear
space in which electrons are rapidly moving.
*hese electrons then occupy certain available energy levels. *hese energy levels are also
referred to as princip! "untum she!! or simply electron shells.
&ach shell is given a principal quantum number, n. *he shells are numbered , !, " etc., starting
from the nucleus. (e.g. the first shell has principal quantum number A ). *he larger the value of
n, the further from the nucleus we are Fli,ely to findF the electron.
*he closer the quantum shell to the nucleus, the #reter the attraction between the electrons
occupying it and the nucleus, the lower the energy of the electrons. *hat is, when

&ach shell consists of a number of subshells, labelled s3 p , d and f. *he number of subshells in

*he electron lost in ioni(ation is always removed from the outer shell. *he bigger the atom is,
the further this electron is from the nucleus. /ence the wea,er the attractive force of the
nucleus and so the less the energy required to remove the electron.
!. si(e of the positive nuclear charge
The nuclear charge is the total charge of all the protons in the nucleus.
*he greater the nuclear charge, the greater the attractive force of the nucleus on the electrons.
/ence the greater the energy required to remove an electron to produce ioni(ation.
". screening (shielding) effect of inner electrons.
*he outermost electron is screened (shielded) from the attraction of the nucleus by the
repelling effect of the inner electrons. 5s shielding increases, the attraction of the positive
nucleus for the negative electron decreases and less energy is required to remove an electronB
i.e. ioni(ation energy decreases.
Nhen more than one electron is removed from an atom, the energy required to remove the first
electron is called the first ioni(ation energy. *he energy required to remove the second electron is
called the second ioni(ation energy. *he second ioni(ation energy is larger than the first ioni(ation
energy, because more energy is required to pull an electron away from a positive ion.
*he number of ioni(ation energies that an element can have equal to its proton number.
