Isotopes, the Periodic Table and Bohr Models

Isotopes, The Periodic Table and Bohr Models

What are Isotopes?

• Isotopes are atoms with the same number of protons and electrons, but a different number of neutrons

• Isotopes have the same atomic number, but different mass number.

Drawing Bohr Models

• Draw the nucleus as a circle in the centre.

• List the number of protons and neutrons inside the circle.

• Draw electron shells around the nucleus.

  • 1st Shell - 2 Electrons

  • 2nd Shell - 8 Electrons

  • 3rd Shell - 8 Electrons
