    • Where are electrons located in an atom?
      Orbiting the nucleus in energy levels
    • What is the name of the atomic model shown in the image?
      Bohr atomic model of a nitrogen atom
    • What is the smallest unit of a chemical element?
      Atom
    • Is Carbon 12 radioactive?
      No, it is stable.
    • Is Carbon 13 radioactive?
      No, it is stable.
    • What determines an atom's mass number?
      Protons and neutrons
    • What charge do protons carry?
      Positive charge
    • What charges do protons have?
      Positive charges
    • How does the Bohr model differ from the earlier Rutherford model of the atom?
      The Bohr model introduces the concept of discrete electron energy levels, while the Rutherford model had electrons orbiting the nucleus in a continuous fashion
    • What charge do neutrons have?

      No charge
    • What are the limitations of the Bohr atomic model?
      • Can only be applied to simple, hydrogen-like atoms
      • Does not accurately predict the behavior of multi-electron atoms
      • Cannot explain the full complexity of atomic structure and electron configurations
    • What particles are found in the nucleus of an atom?
      Protons and neutrons
    • What happens to calcium when it loses two electrons?
      • Calcium becomes Ca²⁺
      • It forms a cation
      • It has a positive charge
    • What charge do electrons carry?
      Negative charge
    • What does 23 represent in the periodic table symbol for sodium?
      Mass number
    • How does the Bohr model explain the stability of atoms?
      • Electrons can only occupy certain discrete energy levels
      • Electrons do not emit energy when in these stable energy levels
      • This explains why atoms are stable and do not continuously emit radiation
    • What charge do neutrons carry?

      No charge
    • How do electrons move in relation to the nucleus?
      They orbit the nucleus in distinct shells
    • What determines an element's chemical properties?
      Electrons
    • What is the model of a nitrogen atom used to illustrate?
      • Structure of an atom
      • Arrangement of protons, neutrons, and electrons
      • Distinct shells for electron orbits
    • How many protons do all carbon isotopes have?
      6 protons
    • Is Carbon 14 radioactive?

      Yes, it is radioactive.
    • What results from the varying number of neutrons in isotopes?
      Different mass numbers for the isotopes
    • Why do isotopes have the same chemical properties?
      They have the same number of electrons
    • What is the mass number of an isotope determined by?
      • Sum of protons and neutrons
      • Varies among isotopes of the same element
    • What is the role of the electron orbits in the Bohr atomic model?
      • The electron orbits represent the allowed energy levels for the electrons in the atom
      • Electrons can only occupy specific discrete energy levels, not any arbitrary energy
    • What are the neutron counts for Carbon-12, Carbon-13, and Carbon-14?
      6, 7, and 8 neutrons respectively
    • What is the symbol for carbon?
      C
    • What is the formula to calculate the area of a circle with radius r?
      A=A =πr2 \pi r^2
    • What are isotopes?

      Atoms of the same element with different neutrons
    • How can you identify a metal element in the periodic table?
      • Metals are located on the left side of the periodic table
      • Metals have high electrical and thermal conductivity
      • Metals are malleable and ductile
    • What is the nuclear number of Carbon 12?

      12
    • How do the mass number and proton/atomic number differ in the structure of an atom?
      • Mass number (A): Total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus
      • Proton/atomic number (Z): Number of protons in the nucleus (determines element's identity)
    • How many neutrons are there in Carbon 12?
      6 neutrons
    • What is the number of neutrons in an element with mass number 23 and atomic number 11?
