Structure of Atoms
_______________________________________

Question 1. What are canal rays?

Answer: Canal rays are positively charged radiations which led to the discovery of positively charged sub-atomic particle called proton.

Question 2. If an atom contains one electron and one proton, will it carry any charge or not?

Answer: The atom will be electrically neutral as one – ve charge balances one + ve charge.

Question 3. On the basis of Thomson’s model of an atom, explain how the atom is neutral as a whole.

Answer: According to Thomson’s model of an atom

(i) An atom consists of a positively charged sphere and the electrons are embedded in it,

(ii) The negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude. So the atom is electrically neutral.

 

Question 4. On the basis of Rutherford’s model of an atom, which sub-atomic particle is present in the nucleus of an atom?

Answer: As per Rutherford’s model of an atom, the protons which are positively charged are present in the nucleus of an atom.

Question 5. Draw a sketch of Bohr’s model of an atom with three shells.

Answer:


 Question 6. What do you think would be the observation if the a-particle scattering experiment is carried out using a foil of a metal other than gold?

Answer: On using any metal foil, the observations of the a-particle scattering experiment would remain the same as all atoms would have same structure.

 

Question 7. Name the three sub-atomic particles of an atom.

Answer: The sub-atomic particles of an atom are

Question 8. Helium atom has an atomic mass of 4 u and two protons in its nucleus. How many neutrons does it have?

Answer:

Question 9. Write the distribution of electrons in carbon and sodium atoms.

Answer:


Question 10. If K and L shells of an atom are full, then what would be the total number of electrons in the atom?

Answer: K shell can hold 2 electrons and L shell can hold 8 electrons.When both the shells are full, there will be (8 + 2) 10 electrons in the atom.
