Look at the above table.

What charge (B) should Element 1 have

Question 2 options:

from the data we can construct the following table

element 1 element 2

Atomic # 6 6

Atomic mass 12 13

protons 6 6

neutrons 6 7

electrons 6 5

charge 0 +1

the atomic # of both is 6, so they are both carbon with 6 protons

element 1 has a total of protons plus neutrons of 12, element 2 of 13

so element 1 has 6 neutrons,element 2 has 7

element 2 has a +1 charge with 6 protons, so it has only 5 negative electrons

element 1 with 6 protons has 6 electrons, so it has a 0 charge
