Match the key terms from this topic to their appropriate definitions.

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Atomic Number		The number of protons within an element.
Atomic Mass		The mass of an atom (protons + neutrons).
Protons		A positive particle located inside of the nucleus; has a mass of 1 amu.
Neutron		A particle located inside of the nucleus without a charge; has a mass of 1 amu.
Electron		A negative particle located outside of the nucleus; has a mass of 1 amu.
Isotope		Atoms of the same element with the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
