QUESTION 1/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 2/16 - The Atom
The atom is made up of a very small, massively dense nucleus located in the center of the atom. It is surrounded by the electron cloud, which is a mostly empty volume of space.
Two Regions of the Atom
Answer 1 & 2 - The Atom
QUESTION 3/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 4/16 - The Atom
The atom contains postively charged protons and neutrally charged neutrons located in the nucleus. It also contains negatively charged electrons that orbit around the nucleus in the electron cloud.
Atomic Subatomic Particles
Answer 3 & 4 - The Atom
QUESTION 5/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 6/16 - The Atom
A proton determines the identity and mass of an element. A neutron determines the mass and radioactive property of an element. An electron determines the bonding preference and chemical reactivity of an element.
Properties of the Subatomic Particle
ANSWER 5 & 6 - The Atom
QUESTION 7/16 - The atom
QUESTION 8/16 - The Atom
The Bohr model is a way to visualize incredibly tiny atoms. The positive circles are protons, the other colored circles are neutrons, and the negative electrons orbit around the nucleus in different energy levels. The number of protons determines the atomic number and identity of an element.
Atomic Models
Answer 7 & 8 - The Atom
QUESTION 9/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 10/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 11/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 12/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 13/16 - The Atom
The number of protons help to identify an element. An isotope is a different type of atom of the same element but with a different number of neutrons in the nucleus. An ion is an electrical charged atom of the same element but with a different number of electrons.
Types of Atoms
Answer 9-13 - The Atom

QUESTION 15/16 - The Atom
QUESTION 16/16 - The Atom
The Periodic Table organizes elements according to similiar chemical and physical properties. The atomic number, average atomic mass, element symbol, and name of each known element is provided. This table also lists each element in order of atomic number.
