By the end, you can…
- Explain Mass number A = protons + neutrons
- Change one input at a time and predict its effect before checking the model.
- Apply the relationship in a quiz and explain the reasoning behind your answer.
Useful preparation: Counting particles, ratios and the difference between a model and a real substance. Suggested previous stop: Design a particle filter.

The relationshipMass number A = protons + neutrons
Assemble carbon-12
Protons determine the element. Neutrons change its isotope. Electrons determine the charge. Particle dots are a schematic count, not real electron paths.

Notice the pattern
Isotopes have the same proton number and different neutron numbers. Some combinations shown are unstable or unbound.
