1Which scientist cut up a piece of material until he discovered what then was thought to be the smallest particle an atom?
- ADalton
- BDemocritus
- CRutherford
2Who discovered the later to be named electron?
- AJ.J Thomas
- BDalton
- CBohr
3What particle did Rutherford shoot at a piece of thin gold foil during his experiment to confirm that an atom is mostly empty space?
- ABeta particle
- BSoot particle
- CAlpha particle
4What did Rutherford discover about the atom due to his experiment with firing particles at gold foil?
- AThe atom has a dense positivley charged nucleus in the center of the atom.
- BThe atom has electrons which orbit the nucleus in energy levels.
- CAtoms are mostly empty space with negatively charged particles embedded.
5What of the below evidence supported Bohrs hypothesis that electrons are located at specific energy levels.
- AAtomic Spectra
- BWhen compounds are formed
- CElectrolysis of compounds
6[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.- ADalton's
- BBohrs
- CRutherfords
- DDemocritus
- Esolid spheres
- FHollow spheres
- Gsmall squares
- Hidentifiable mass
- Iare identical
- Jvary slightly
- Kare different
- Lcompounds
- Mions
- Nmolecules
7When 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].
- Aabsorbs energy
- Bsteals energy
- Clight
- Demits energy
- Eunstable
- Fexcited position
- Gdrops to
- Hexcited
8Which of the following terms is the definition of relative isotopic mass?
- AIsotopic mass is the mass of an atom compared to 1/12 of a carbon-12 atom.
- BIsotopic mass is the mass of an atom compared to a hydrogen-1 atom.
- CIsotopic mass is the mass of an atom compared to 1/16 of a oxygen-16 atom.
9Which of the followings are correct for the term isotope.
- ASame amount of protons
- BDifferent number of electrons
- CDifferent mass number
- DDifferent number of neutrons
10Which of the following is the definition for relative atomic mass?
- AThe weighted average of all naturally occurring isotopes of an element.
- BThe weighted average of all isotopes and possible ions of an element.
- CThe weighted average of all possible ions of an element
11What machine in the chemical industry is used to identify elements in a sample?
- AMass spectrometer
- BElectrode
- CCalorimeter
12The peaks on a graph showing the elements found in a sample represent what?
- AAbundance
