(c) The table shows the atomic number and electron arrangement of some of the elements in
Group 1 of the modern Periodic Table.

Element Atomic number Electron arrangement
Lithium 3 2.1
Sodium 11 2.8.1
Potassium 19 2.8.8.1


Which two statements explain how the reactions of lithium, sodium and potassium are
related to their electron arrangements and so to their atomic number?

Tick (3) two boxes.

The atomic number is the mass of the atom.

The atomic number is the number of electrons in the atom.

The atomic number is the number of neutrons in the atom.

The elements all have the same electron arrangement.

The elements all have the same number of electrons in their outer shell.
