Which is a correct statement about atoms of Na and Li?

• Na is larger than Li because Na has more protons and electrons.

• Na is larger than Li because Na has valence electrons that are farther away from the protons.

• Li is smaller than Na because Li has less protons and electrons than Na

Which statement about energy levels is false?

• They are located at fixed distances from the nucleus of the atom.

• They are the only places where electrons can be found.

• They have more energy when they are farther from the nucleus.

• They all have the same number of electrons.

What are orbitals?

• regions in the electron cloud where electrons are most likely to be

• fixed paths in which electrons orbit the nucleus

• places where electron waves are unstable

• none of the above

An electron emits energy when it jumps from

• proton to a neutron.

• electron cloud to an orbital.

• orbital to the atomic nucleus.

• higher energy level to a lower energy level.
