To see all my Chemistry videos, check out • http://socratic.org/chemistry • Learn how to write atoms in isotope notation! In isotope notation, you can quickly show how many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in an atom. You put the atomic number, mass number, and net charge around the chemical element symbol. Isotope notation is particularly important in nuclear chemistry, because if you're doing fission, fusion, alpha decay, beta decay, positron emission, or electron capture, you want to be able to tell how many neutrons and protons are in the nucleus.
