Question

1. drag and drop the terms with the definitions. the total number of protons and neutrons found in the nucleus of an atom the number of protons found in an element an element that has a different number of neutrons than protons an element that gains or loses electrons paths electrons follow that have a specific, very small value the inability to describe the perfect position and motion at which an object moves the ability for an electron to behave like a wave or a particle

Explanation:

• Atomic mass number: It is calculated as the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus.
• Atomic number: Uniquely identifies an element by its proton count.
• Isotope: Variants of an element with different neutron - proton ratios.
• Ion: Formed when an element gains or loses electrons.
• Quantum numbers: Describe electron states with specific values.
• Uncertainty principle: Limits simultaneous knowledge of an object's position and motion.
• Wave - particle duality of matter: Electrons exhibit both wave and particle properties.

Answer:

• "the total number of protons and neutrons found in the nucleus of an atom" → atomic mass number
• "the number of protons found in an element" → atomic number
• "an element that has a different number of neutrons than protons" → isotope
• "an element that gains or loses electrons" → ion
• "paths electrons follow that have a specific, very small value" → quantum numbers
• "the inability to describe the perfect position and motion at which an object moves" → uncertainty principle
• "the ability for an electron to behave like a wave or a particle" → wave - particle duality of matter
