The chemical properties of elements depend on _.
Correct answer: A. Atomic number only
- A. Atomic number only
- B. Mass number only
- C. Atomic number and mass both
- D. Neither atomic number nor mass number
Explanation
The chemical properties of an atom depend upon the atomic number. From atomic numbers we can get valence electrons that determine the chemical properties of it.

About Nuclear Physics
Atomic nuclei contain protons and neutrons, with nuclear size, mass defect and binding energy describing their stability. The work covers alpha, beta and gamma decay, decay equations, half-life and decay rate, along with radiation safety and medical applications such as imaging, radiotherapy and tracers.
