Atomic Bohr Models

Front

What is the Bohr model of the atom?

Back

The Bohr model is a theory that describes the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons that travel in circular orbits around the nucleus, similar to planets orbiting the sun.

What is the relationship between protons and electrons in a neutral atom?

Back

In a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons.

Front

What are valence electrons?

Back

Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom that are involved in forming bonds with other atoms.

Front

How do you determine the number of neutrons in an atom?

Back

The number of neutrons can be determined by subtracting the atomic number (number of protons) from the atomic mass (rounded to the nearest whole number).

Front

What element has 11 electrons?

Back

The element with 11 electrons is Sodium (Na).

Front

What is the significance of the atomic number?

Back

The atomic number indicates the number of protons in an atom and determines the element's identity.
