Explain the relationship between isotopes,
neutrons, atomic mass, and protons.

Atomic mass is the total of number of protons and number of neutrons in an atom or isotope.

Explanation:

Explanation:

Atomic mass: The sum of no. of protons and no. of neutrons

Protons: a subatomic particle with a positive charge

Neutron: a subatomic particle with no charge (neutral)

Isotopes: the same elements with different atomic mass [Eg. uranium-235, uranium-238. Uranium being one element, can have different mass numbers. Hence Uranium-238 is an isotope of Uranium-235]

Therefore:

*Δ= Change in

chemical energy is stored in the chemical bonds of atoms and molecules. it can only be seen when it is released in a chemical reaction. when chemical energy is released, the substance from which the energy came is often changed into an entirely different substance.

this chemical reaction releases energy in the form of light and heat. chemical energy is the potential energy stored in the arrangement of atoms within molecules. breaking chemical bonds requires energy, while forming new chemical bonds releases energy.

the atp molecule can store energy in the form of a high energy phosphate bond joining the terminal phosphate group to the rest of the molecule. in this form,energy can be stored at one location, then moved from one part of the cell to another, where it can be released to drive other biochemical reactions.
