| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Democritus | First to propose the idea of atoms. |
| Dalton | Proposed the solid sphere model |
| Thompson | Cathode Ray experiments and the Plum Pudding Model |
| Rutherford | Gold Foil Experiment and the Nuclear Model |
| Schrodinger | Proposed the Quantum model also known as the Electron Cloud model |
| Bohr | Proposed the model that said that electrons were confined to specific energy orbits around the nucleus of the atom . |
| What is the Solid Sphere Model? | Atoms are indestructible, uniform solid spheres with no internal structure. |
| Bohr Model | Fixed circular paths or energy levels and they emit energy only when jumping between discrete orbits. |
| Plum Pudding | Positively charged negatively charged electrons embedded in it |
| Proton Model | Same as Bohr but nucleus contains protons |
| Nuclear Model | Tiny dense positively charged nucleus at the enter orbited by negatively charged electrons |
| Electron cloud | Electrons cannot be precisely decided by a region of probability surrounding the nucleus where electrons are to be found |
| Alpha Particle | Mass energy charge penetrating power heavy very low + weak |
| Beta particle | Mass energy charge penetrating power light medium low - moderate |
| Gamma particle | Mass energy charge penetrating power no mass high 0 very high |
| The atomic weapons used in World War II used a what reaction to generate a majority of their destructive power | fission |
| Who is Henri Becquerel | Discovered that uranium emitted a mysterious particle that fogged film. First experimental evidence that atoms were not indestructible. |
| What is a octet | A energy level that is full and has 8 valence electrons |
