Abbreviations and Definitions:
No. Atomic Number
M.P. - melting point
B.P. - boiling point
* Density of elements with boiling points below 0°C is given in g/l
Atomic number: The number of protons in an
atom. Each element is uniquely defined by its atomic number.
Atomic mass: The mass of an atom is primarily determined by the number of protons
and neutrons in its nucleus. Atomic mass is measured in Atomic Mass Units (amu)
which are scaled relative to carbon, 12C, that is taken as a
standard element with an atomic mass of 12. This isotope of carbon has 6
protons and 6 neutrons. Thus, each proton and neutron has a mass of about 1
amu.
Isotope: Atoms of the
same element with the same atomic number, but different number of neutrons.
Isotope of an element is defined by the sum of the number of protons and
neutrons in its nucleus. Elements have more than one isotope with varying
numbers of neutrons. For example, there are two common isotopes of carbon, 12C
and 13C which have 6 and 7 neutrons respectively. The abundances of
different isotopes of elements vary in nature depending on the source of
materials. For relative abundances of isotopes in nature see reference on
Isotopic Composition of the Elements.
Atomic weight: Atomic weight
values represent weighted average of the masses of all naturally
occurring isotopes of an element. The values shown here are based on the IUPAC
Commission determinations (Pure Appl. Chem. 73:667-683, 2001). The elements
marked with an asterisk have no stable nuclides. For these elements the weight
value shown represents the mass number of the longest-lived isotope of the
