What is inside the nucleus of an atom? | Protons and Neutrons |
What is the sub-atomic particle that is NOT apart of the nucleus? | Electrons |
Is the atomic number at the top or bottom of the periodic table element? | On the top |
Where is the atomic mass on an element in the periodic table? | Down the Bottom, below the full name of the element |
Which of the sub-atomic particles has a negative charge? | Electrons |
Which sub-atomic particle has no charge? | Neutrons |
Which sub-atomic particle has a positive charge? | Protons |
What does the atomic number on the periodic table mean? | How many protons are in the atom |
How do you find the amount of neutrons in the atom? | If you take the mass number from the atomic number, it will equal to how many neutrons there are |
How do you find the amount of electrons in an atom? | It is the same as the number of protons |
When was the first model of the atom created? | 1803, by John Dalton |
Which scientist made the 'plum pudding' model? | Thomson, in 1904 |
Who stated that atoms are indivisible? | John Dalton |
When did Rutherford create the nuclear model? | 1911 |
Who stated that electrons do not move in set paths around the nucleus, but in waves? | Erwin Schrödinger, 1926 |
What did the planetary model propose? | Stable electron orbits |
Who won the Nobel Prize in 1897 for creating the plum pudding model? | J.J. Thomson |
What is proposed in the most recent model of the atom (Quantum model) | That electrons do not move in set paths around the nucleus, but in waves, and that it is impossible to know the exact location of the electrons. |
