The branch of science concerned with the substances of which matter is composed, the investigation of their
properties and reactions, and the use of such reactions to form new substances.
𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫?
Matter is anything that has mass and occupies volume.
𝐀𝐭𝐨𝐦:
⚜ ATOM is the smallest par=cle of an element.
⚜ Word atom is derived from a Greek word ‘atomos’ meaning indivisible, but it is not so.
⚜ It has three fundamental par=cles, which are electron, proton and neutron.
𝐀𝐭𝐨𝐦-the smallest particle of matter which will exhibit the properties of that element.An atom is 10 trillions
time smaller than a full stop.

𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧
Lightest particle
Moves around the nucleus on imaginary circular paths called orbit or shell.
Carries negative charge.
An electron has a relative mass of about 1/1840 unit.
Symbol ‘ e-’ is used.
𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧
Heavier particle
Present within the nucleus.
Carries positive charge.
A proton has a relative mass of 1 unit.
Symbol ‘ p+’ is used.
𝐍𝐞𝐮𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧
Heavier particle.
Present within the nucleus.
Has no charge or neutral.
A neutron also has a relative mass of about 1 unit.
Symbol ‘ no’ is used

Atomic number (Z) is the number of protons present in an atom of an element.
Examples:
Hydrogen has one proton, so its atomic number is 1, Sodium has eleven protons, so its atomic number is 11,
Fluorine has nine protons so its atomic number is 9.

Atomic mass (A) is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in an atom of an element.
Examples:
Hydrogen has one proton and zero neutron, so its atomic mass is 1, Sodium has eleven protons and 12 neutrons, so
its atomic
