What was the most important finding in Rutherford’s gold foil experiment?
Electrons orbit the nucleus at specific energy levels.
Protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atom.
Atoms are mostly empty space but not completely empty.
Electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge.
Atoms are mostly empty space but not completely empty.
Based on our current understanding of the atom, electrons orbit the nucleus of the atom at specific energy levels.
True
False
False
Which of the following scientists was the first to make observations that showed that atoms existed? Democritus Rutherford Thomson Dalton
Dalton
Where are the electrons found within the atom?
Electrons are found outside of the nucleus.
Where are the protons found within the atom?
Protons are found in the nucleus.
When Thomson performed his cathode ray tube experiment, he found that the beam of gas was attracted to the positively charged plate. If he had found that the beam of gas was attracted to the negatively charged plate, which particle would he have found? The proton. The neutron. The electron. The nucleus.
The proton.
How many protons does chlorine, Cl, have?
17
What is the mass number of an atom that has 15 protons and 16 neutrons? 15 16 31 30.97
31
Write the isotope notation for an atom that has 7 protons and 9 neutrons.
Nitrogen-16
If 15% of the atoms of a certain element have a mass of 14.00 amu and 85% of the atoms have a mass of 15.00 amu, then the average atomic mass is 14.50 amu.
True

An element has three isotopes. The first isotope (4.00 amu) has an abundance of 87.46 %, the second isotope (5.00 amu) has an abundance of 11.57 %, and the third isotope (6.00 amu) makes up the remainder of the abundance. What is the average atomic mass of the element?
- 66 amu
- 08 amu
- 14 amu
- 00 amu
4.14 amu
In a sample of 200 atoms, 195 are atoms (97.50 % of the total atoms) with a mass of 14.00 amu and 5 atoms (2.50 % of the total atoms) with a mass of 15.00 amu. What is the average atomic mass of this sample? (Be sure to show your work!)
14.03 amu
One of nitrogen’s isotopes has a mass number of 15. How many neutrons are in the nucleus of this isotope?
Nitrogen- 15
Protons- 7
15-7= 8 Neutrons
(460-370 BCE) A Greek philosopher who theorized that all matter could be reduced to particles that could not be divided, which he described as “atomos.”
Democritus
- everything is made up of atoms
- atoms are invisible and smallest part of matter
- all atoms have same element mass and shape
- atoms can’t be created or destroyed
- atoms can be combined to make compounds
John Dalton
- did an experiment on how atoms are made up of other components
- used cathode ray
- discovered the electron
JJ Thomson
- used gold and alpha, the alpha bounced back b/c of nucleus
- discovered nucleus
Ernest Rutherford
- energy levels
- electrons have energy which keeps them in orbit but they are still attracted to (+)
Bohr
- electron cloud model
- used BOHR MODEL & math to calculate the probabiltity of finding electrons
Erwin Schrodinger
An isotope with 7 protons and 8 neutrons would have which of the following isotope notations? P - 15 N - 7 N - 15 O - 15
N - 15
Use the following information below to calculate the average atomic mass. Be sure to show your work.
Isotopic Mass Number Relative Abundance
28 66.28%
29 26.34%
30 7.38%
28.41 amu
Which of the following was not a conclusion from Rutherford’s experiments with gold foil?
- The atom is mostly empty space with a small, solid center.
- Electrons are outside the nucleus at very specific energy levels.
- The protons are in the nucleus of the atom and electrons are outside the nucleus.
- There is a tiny nucleus within the atom.
Electrons are outside the nucleus at very specific energy levels.
