Question 1

Question
Which scientist cut up a piece of material until he discovered what then was thought to be the smallest particle an atom?
Answer
  • Dalton
  • Democritus
  • Rutherford

Question 2

Question
Who discovered the later to be named electron?
Answer
  • J.J Thomas
  • Dalton
  • Bohr

Question 3

Question
What particle did Rutherford shoot at a piece of thin gold foil during his experiment to confirm that an atom is mostly empty space?
Answer
  • Beta particle
  • Soot particle
  • Alpha particle

Question 4

Question
What did Rutherford discover about the atom due to his experiment with firing particles at gold foil?
Answer
  • The atom has a dense positivley charged nucleus in the center of the atom.
  • The atom has electrons which orbit the nucleus in energy levels.
  • Atoms are mostly empty space with negatively charged particles embedded.

Question 5

Question
What of the below evidence supported Bohrs hypothesis that electrons are located at specific energy levels.
Answer
  • Atomic Spectra
  • When compounds are formed
  • Electrolysis of compounds

Question 6

Question
[blank_start]Dalton's[blank_end] Billiard Balls- Conclusion- Atoms are [blank_start]solid spheres[blank_end]. Atoms are of the same element [blank_start]are identical[blank_end]. Evidence- When observing the formation of [blank_start]compounds[blank_end] and the atom rearrangement.
Answer
  • Dalton's
  • Bohrs
  • Rutherfords
  • Democritus
  • solid spheres
  • Hollow spheres
  • small squares
  • identifiable mass
  • are identical
  • vary slightly
  • are different
  • compounds
  • ions
  • molecules

Question 7

Question
When an electron [blank_start]absorbs energy[blank_end] it is [blank_start]excited[blank_end] to a higher energy level. However the electron is [blank_start]unstable[blank_end] in its [blank_start]excited position[blank_end] so in turn [blank_start]drops to[blank_end] any lower energy level. The electron [blank_start]emits energy[blank_end] in the process in the form of [blank_start]light[blank_end].
Answer
  • absorbs energy
  • steals energy
  • light
  • emits energy
  • unstable
  • excited position
  • drops to
  • excited
