QuestionAnswer
what did Democritus think. thought matter could not be divided indefinitely.
what did Aristotle think. thought that matter was made of four “elements”: earth, fire, water, air.
John Dalton was known as what Father of Atomic Theory.
was Aristoltle way of thinking correct or incorrect. Aristotle was wrong. However, his theory persisted for approx. 2000 years due to his popularity.
John daltan revies the idea of ? The atom
Daltans model was called? Cannon ball model.
Exceptions to Dalton’s Theory Atoms can be divided,Isotopes exist
J.J. Thomson was famous for which model? Plum pudding
JJ Thompson discovered what Discovered electrons.
What exsperiment is JJ thompspn famous for. Cathode Ray Experiment
atoms must contain what electrons
Rutherford’s Experiment Proves A nucleus exists: small, dense and positive. Most of the atom is empty space
what model is Bohr’s popular for. Planetary Model .
Electrons are located where? in orbits around the nucleus.
who was Erwin Schrodinger the exact location of an electron cannot be pin-pointed; it is more accurate to view the electrons in regions called orbitals.
who was James Chadwick Realized that the atomic mass of most elements was double the number of protons
Schrödinger and heiseneburg were responsible for which model. Quantum Mechanical Model.
How can you tell the difference between an atom and an ion just by looking? Atoms do not have a charge, ions do have a charge.
What part of the atom can always be used to identify which element the atom came from? # of protons
Why do atoms have neutrons? to keep the protons near one another
How is a mass number different from an atomic number? Mass number refers to the number of protons added to the number of neutrons. Atomic number refers to the protons only.
How does the mass, in amu, of a proton compare the mass of a neutron? They are the same (both are 1 amu)
How does the mass, in amu, of an electron compare to the mass of a proton or neutron The mass of an electron is 1/1836 of a proton or neutron. Electrons have much less mass than protons or neutrons.
Why are atoms neutral? The number of protons (+) equals the number of electrons (-)
Describe where we find protons, neutrons and electrons in an atom. Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of an atom. Electrons are located outside of the nucleus in orbitals.
Explain how isotopes of an atom are both similar and different Similar - same atomic number, same number of protons Different- different mass number, different number of neutrons
Explain how an atom becomes a (+) ion and how an atom becomes a (-) ion. (+) ion - atom loses 1 or more electrons (-) ion- atoms gains 1 or more electrons
