Electron cloud
Nucleus consisting of protons and neutrons
Electron: It carries a negative charge. It has a mass only about 1/1850 of the proton.
Nucleus consisting of protons and neutrons
Electron cloud
It is orbiting the nucleus at high speeds.
Proton: It is found in the nucleus .
It carries a positive charge.
Neutron: It does not carry any charge.
It has about the same mass as a proton.

What is the charge of electron?
What is the charge of proton?
Compare the mass of electron and that of proton.
Describe the movement of electron in an atom.
Electron: It carries a negative charge.
It carries a positive charge.
It is orbiting the nucleus at high speeds.
Electron has a mass only about 1/1850 of the proton.
What is the charge of a neutron?
Compare the mass of neutron and that of proton.
Neutron: It does not carry any charge.
They have about the same mass.
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.
How do you know atomic number of an atom from the number of protons?

It is the distribution of electrons in the various shells of an atom.
1st shell (energy level)
4th shell (energy level)
3rd shell
2nd shell
nucleus
nucleus
Energy of the electron in the first shell is lower
nucleus
Energy of the electron in the third shell is higher
The first shell can hold a maximum of 2 electrons
The second shell can hold a maximum of 8 electrons
The third shell can hold a maximum of 18 electrons
The following rules can be applied to find out the electronic configuration of an atom.
The first 2 electrons go into the first shell and complete it.
The next 8 electrons go into the second shell and complete it.
The next 8 electrons go into the third shell.
The next 2 electrons go into the fourth shell.
The next 10 electrons go into the third shell and complete it.
Electron diagrams also show the distribution of electrons in atoms.
