For most purposes the nucleus can be regarded as a collection of nucleons (neutrons and protons), and the internal structures of these particles can be ignored. Recall that the number of protons in a particular nucleus is the atomic number (Z) and that the sum of the neutrons and protons is the mass number (A). Atoms that have identical atomic numbers but different mass number values are called isotopes. The general term nuclide is applied to each unique atom and is represented by where X represents the symbol for a particular element. [Pg.979]
