Nucleus: proton (+1 charge, 1 dalton mass, neutron (0 charge, 1 dalton mass, electron (-1 charge, 1 dalton mass) Atomic number: number of protons in the nucleus. Atomic mass: number (mass) of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Electrical charge: number of electrons = number of protons. In an ion, the number of electrons is not equal to the number of protons. Compound: substance which can be broken down to two or more elements, nacl, composition is definite and exact, energy is involved in the synthesis or breakdown.
