    What are the three types of sub-atomic particles in an atom?

    Protons, neutrons, and electrons.

    What is the mass number of an atom?

    Total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.

    How does an atom maintain electrical neutrality?

    Equal numbers of protons and electrons.

    What distinguishes isotopes of the same element?

    Different numbers of neutrons.

    What is the role of the nucleus in an atom?

    Contains protons and neutrons, holding most of the atom's mass.

    What happens if an element has a full outer shell?

    The element becomes unreactive.

    What is the significance of the atomic number?

    It indicates the number of protons in the nucleus.

    How are elements arranged in the periodic table?

    In ascending order of atomic number.

    What defines a transition element?

    Metals located in the middle block of the periodic table.

    What is the maximum number of electrons in the second shell?

    8 electrons.

    What are valence electrons?

    Electrons in the outermost shell that determine chemical behavior.

    How do metals and non-metals differ in the periodic table?

    Metals are on the left, non-metals on the right.

    What is the electronic configuration of Argon?

    2,8,8.
