Help on a Atomic Theory Quiz in science?
Hello, i could use some help on this. dont worry its not graded just a prep, but i want to get the right answers so i can study. any help is appreciated. thanks

Question 1

Which of the following best summarizes the wave mechanical model of atoms?
Question 1 answers

Electrons reside in known positions in fixed orbits around the nucleus.

Electrons are waves that travel in known paths around the protons.

Electrons display some properties of waves and while they reside outside of the nucleus, their positions cannot be known with certainty.

Question 2

Which of the following best summarizes the law of conservation of mass?
Question 2 answers

Matter can be changed but not created or destroyed.

Matter can be destroyed during a chemical reaction.

Matter that gains mass during a chemical reaction is evidence that matter can be created.

Question 3

Thomson suggested a plum pudding model of the atom. In this model
Question 3 answers

the atom has a concentrated positively charged nucleus and electrons that move around it

the atom has a cloud of positive charge with electrons randomly embedded in it

the atom has a central nucleus with electrons that reside in specific energy levels around it

Question 4

Who first suggested that all matter is made of tiny particles called atoms?
Question 4 answers

Robert Boyle

Democritus

Laviosier

Question 5

In the Bohr model of the atom, electrons exist in fixed orbits and they cannot move from one level to another.
Question 5 answers
True
False

Question 6


Describe J. J. Thomson's experiment that led to his discovery of electrons. Explain why this discovery helped us understand the nature of atoms.



Question 7

Which of the following is the best definition of an atom?
Question 7 answers

charged particles that make up all living things

negatively charged particles that flow in electric current

small particles that make up all matter

Question 8

Which of the following particles has mass?
Question 8 answers

protons only

electrons only

both protons and electrons

Question 9

Which of the following best characterizes an electron?
Question 9 answers

negatively charged particle outside the nucleus of an atom

negatively charged particle within the nucleus of an atom

positively charged particle that carries electrical current

Question 10

The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge.
Question 10 answers
True
False
