vernon chem 3.1

Review of Chapter 3, Lesson 1

QuestionAnswer
the basic particle from which all elements are made; the smallest particle of an element that has the properties of that element atom
the average mass of all the isotopes of an element. atomic mass
the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom (can be used to identify an element) atomic number
a tiny, negatively charged particle that moves around the outside of the nucleus of an atom electron
a substance that cannot be broken down into any other substances by chemical or physical means element
a region of an atom in which electrons of the same energy are likely to be found energy level
an atom with the same number of protons and a different number of neutrons from other atoms of the same element isotope
a small particle in the nucleus of the atom, with no electrical charge. neutron
the central core of an atom which contains protons and neutrons nucleus
small, positively charged particles that are found in the nucleus of an atom protons
Which atomic model proposed that atoms were shaped like hard spheres that could not be divided? Dalton's
Which atomic model was the first to propose that atoms had negatively and positively charged parts? His model described electrons scattered throughout a ball of positive charge. Thomson's
Which atomic model proposed that the majority of an atom's volume was empty space and all of the positive charge is concentrated in the nucleus of the atom? Rutherford's
Which atomic model proposed that electrons were found only in specific orbits around the nucleus? Bohr's
Which atomic model was developed in the 1920s and stated that electrons move rapidly within a cloudlike region around the nucleus? Cloud Model
This scientist proposed the existence of another particle in the nucleus in 1932. The particle was called the neutron and had not been found sooner because it has no electrical charge Chadwick
Which atomic model is currently still in use today? Modern Model
What charge does a proton have? positive
What charge does an electron have? negative
The positive charge from the protons equal the negative charge of the electrons, therefore the atom itself is..... neutral
Is a proton MORE or LESS massive than an electron? more
How many electrons equal the mass of one proton? 1,840
What unit of mass do scientists sometimes use to describe the mass of an atom and its particles? amu
What does amu stand for? atomic mass units
every atom of an element has the same number of ____________ in its nucleus. protons
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom are equal to the number of electrons surrounding the nucleus. True or False? True
Two different elements can have the same atomic number. True or False? False
In order to find how many neutrons are in an isotope, subtract the number of protons from the elements atomic .......... mass
protons + neutrons = mass number
An object used to help explain ideas about the natural world when they cannot be observed directly model

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
