The Fundamental Unit Of Life
Question
Why is atomic number is the fundamental property of elements?
Solution
All the elements are characterised by their atomic numbers. When elements react, their atoms either lose or gain electrons but their atomic number remains the same. Thus, atomic number is the fundamental property of the elements. Also, elements in periodic table are arranged in increasing atomic number.
