Periodic Table Table of the elements 2.1.0 Actinides, actinoids Actinoids, rare earth elements, from 89 Ac, to 103 Lr inclusive, are metals shown separately below the main table, in periodP7a. Actinides can be represented by Ac. The valence of their cations varies. They are all radioactive. They form part of the group of transition metals. Actinium | Thorium | Protactinium | Uranium | Neptunium | Plutonium | Americium | Curium | Berkelium | Californium | Einsteinium | < a href="#FmS">Fermium | Mendelevium | Nobelium | Lawrencium 2.2.0 Atomic number and mass number Atomic number, Z, is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of an element. Mass number, A, atomic mass number, nucleon number, is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom of an element. Atomic number is shown in the left subscript position and mass number is shown in the left superscript position. See diagram 2.2.0: Carbon-12, Uranium-238, Oxygen-16 2.3.0 Atomic weight Atomic weight, relative atomic mass (r.a.m.), of an element, is the ratio of the average atomic mass of an atom of an element, including the common isotopes, to 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12, the unified atomic mass unit. Awt, Atomic weight - elements with no stable isotopes Chlorine is 75% chlorine-35 and 25% chlorine-37, r.a.m. = 35.4527, so atomic weight is usually quoted as 35.5. For atomic weight values listed for elements with no stable isotopes. See IUPAC Periodic Table of the Elements, 2011-01-21. 2.4.0 Atomic mass units, amu Atomic mass units (u) are used to state the mass of an individual particle, e.g. 1 atom of oxygen has a mass of 16.00 u. The atomic mass unit is 1/12 of the mass of12C. Mass of 1 amu = 1.66 × 10−27 kg 2.5.0 Elements Elements, chemical elements, are substances that cannot be separated into simpler substances. All matter consists of single elements or combinations of elements. The periodic table includes 92 naturally occurring elements and 8 or more radioactive elements synthesized by nuclear reactions. 2.6.0 Free element metals Free element metals are found in free elemental form, e.g. Gold | Copper. 2.7.0 Heavy metals 3.10.0 Poisons and First Aid (Table) Heavy metals, a metal of relatively high density, specific gravity > 5, metal of high relative atomic weight, especially if poisonous. The term "heavy metals" has been used in legislation related to chemical hazards and the safe use of chemicals with the legal regulations in specifying a list of heavy metals to which they apply. Heavy metals defined as elements commonly used in industry and generically toxic to animals and to aerobic and anaerobic processes may include As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Hg, Ni, Se, Zn. SoCopper | Lead | Mercury | Zinc, are called "heavy metals", if they cause pollution. The term "heavy metal" is not exact. For example, although Aluminium and Beryllium are toxic, they are not called heavy metals. 2.8.0 Metalloids Metalloids have properties between metals and non-metals. The metalloids are as follows: | Boron | Silicon | Germanium | Arsenic | Antimony | Tellurium | Also some chemists include | Polonium | and | Astatine. | 2.9.0 Radiation, ionizing radiation, Geiger counter See: Geiger Counters (Commercial) See diagram 2.9: Geiger counter Alpha particles have two protons and two neutrons, Helium nucleus Beta particles are electrons. Gamma rays and X-rays are pure photons. A Geiger counter is used to detect alpha particles, beta particles and gamma rays. A radionuclide (radioisotope, isotope), emits radioactivity, gamma rays and may be used in nuclear medicine. The five types of ionizing radiation 1. Alpha radiation, α radiation + alpha particle Uranium -238 --> thorium-234 238U92 -->234Th90 + 4He2 + energy An alpha particle can be shown as4He2 or 4α2. uranium-238 --> thorium-234 + alpha particle + gamma rays (gamma photon) Uranium, symbol U, atomic number 92, is in group 6, period P7a of the Periodic Table. Alpha radiation travels a very short distance through air, cannot penetrate skin or clothing, but it can be harmful if alpha-emitting materials inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed through open wounds. Transuranic elements, have atomic number > 92 2. Beta radiation, β radiation Carbon-14 --> nitrogen-14 + beta particle + antineutrino 14C6 -->14N7 +0β-1 + electron antineutrino ( ̅νe) + energy Some useful Beta emitters: phosphorous-32, tritium (H-3), carbon-14, strontium-90, and lead-210. 3. Gamma radiation, γ radiation Iodine-131 --> xenon 131 + gamma ray + beta particle 131I53 --> 131Xe54 + 0β-1 + 0γ0 The three most useful gamma radionuclides are: cobalt-60, cesium-137, and technetium-99m. 4. X-rays: 27.23 5. Ultraviolet rays, Ultraviolet radiation (UV): 27.24 Ionizing radiation only wavelengths < 200 nm (called Vacuum UV or VUV), occurs in the atmosphere Absorbed dose of ionizing radiation = energy absorbed / mass of tissue = J / kg, Grays (Gy) Dose equivalent = absorbed dose × quality factor, Sieverts (Sv). Quality factor is the comparative ionizing effect of radiation Quality factors: Alpha particles 20, Neutrons >10 k3V 10 (only from nuclear reactions or neutron bombs), Beta particles 1, Gamma rays 1, X-rays 1. Background radiation comes from space radiation, e.g. cosmic rays at high altitude, terrestrial radiation, e.g. rocks, e.g. radon-220, ingested thorium, potassium-40, manufactured radiation, coal power stations, medical treatment, e.g. X-rays. 2.10.0 Radioactive element, stable isotope, half life Nuclear, Geiger Counter, (Commercial) Half-life from change in number of radioactive atoms - Equipment for senior physics practicals By Todd Helmenstine Technetium Tc-91, 4.21 x 106 years Promethium Pm-145, 17.4 years Polonium Po-209, 102 years Astatine At-210, 8.1 hours Radon Rn-222, 3.82 days Francium Fr-223, 22 minutes Radium Ra-226, 1600 years Actinium Ac-227, 21.77 years Thorium Th-229, 7.54 x 104 years Protactinium Pa-231, 3.28 x 104 years Uranium U-236, 2.34 x 107 years Neptunium Np-237, 2.14 x 106 years Plutonium Pu-244, 8.00 x 107 years Americium Am-243, 7370 years Curium Cm-247, 1.56 x 107 years Berkelium Bk-247, 1380 years Californium Cf-251, 898 years Einsteinium Es-252, 471.7 days Fermium Fm-257, 100.5 days Mendelevium Md-258, 51.5 days Nobelium No-259, 58 minutes Lawrencium Lr-262, 4 hours Rutherfordium Rf-265, 13 hours Dubnium Db-268, 32 hours Seaborgium Sg-271, 2.4 minutes Bohrium Bh-267, 17 seconds Hassium Hs-269, 9.7 seconds Meitnerium Mt-276, 0.72 seconds Darmstadtium Ds-281, 11.1 seconds Roentgenium Rg-281, 26 seconds Copernicium Cn-285, 29 seconds Ununtrium Uut-284, 0.48 seconds Flerovium Fl-289, 2.65 seconds Ununpentium Uup-289, 87 milliseconds Livermorium Lv-293, 61 milliseconds 2.10.1 Radioactive carbon dating The radioactive isotope of carbon14C has half-life 5700 years. The most abundant carbon isotope is12C and ratio of12C /14C in the environment is constant enough in the environment and so in the tissues of living organisms. At the death of an organism the amount of14C decays exponentially, so the age of a fossil organism can be estimated by comparing its12C /14C ratio with the current value. No carbon dating can be done for after 1950 because of contamination of the atmosphere by nuclear explosions. 2.11.0 Rare earth elements, lanthanides Lanthanides rare earth elements (rare earth metals), atomic numbers 57 La * to 71 Lu, are 15 metals shown separately below in the Periodic table, period P6a. They are all named after where they were originally found in Sweden. The "rare earths" are not "rare"! If Lanthanides are represented by Ln, they all form trivalent cations Ln3+. Lanthanum | Cerium | Praseodymium | Neodymium | Promethium | Samarium | Europium | Gadolinium | Terbium | Dysprosium | | Holmium | Erbium | Thulium | Ytterbium | Lutetium The IUPAC adds Scandium, Sc, and Yttrium, Y, to the list of rare earth elements because they have similar chemical properties and are often found in the same ores as the lanthanides. Scandium | Yttrium 2.12.0 Symbol of an element Symbol of an element, e.g. H for Hydrogen. Atomic symbols, chemical formula notation, e.g. Ac, were mainly invented by the Swedish chemist Jacob Berzelius (1779-1848). Which atom has atomic number of 48?Cadmium is a chemical element with symbol Cd and atomic number 48. Classified as a transition metal, Cadmium is a solid at room temperature.
What is the atomic mass of 48 neutrons?About Krypton
The most stable isotope of Krypton has 48 neutrons in its nucleus giving it an atomic mass of 84. Krypton is a Noble Gas.
What element that has 48 protons?
What element has 22 protons and a mass number of 48?Timmy: Titanium has an atomic number of 22, which means it has 22 protons. The average mass is closest to 48 which means the number of protons and neutrons should add to 48.
