What model did John Dalton produce?
Solid sphere model
What model did JJ Thomson produce?
Plum Pudding Model
What model did Ernest Rutherford produce?
Alpha Scattering Experiment - Nuclear Model
What model did Niels Bohr produce?
Planetary Model - Electronic orbit
What was the solid sphere model?
Proposed all atoms were made of tiny indivisible particles called atom
Every element was made up of the same atoms, different from other elements
What was the plum pudding model?
Proposed atoms weren’t indivisble
Positively charged matter with electrons embedded inside it
What was the nuclear model?
Most of the atom is an empty space
Most mass is in the nucleus
Nucleus is positive charged
What was the planetary model?
Electrons move in orbits around nucleus in electron shells

What does the group number of an atom tell you?
The number of electrons in the outer shell
What does the period number of an atom tell you?
The number of electron shells of an element
What does the atomic number of an atom tell you?
Number of protons and electrons
What does the mass number of an atom tell you?
Protons + neutrons
How do we know which number is the mass number?
The bigger one is always the mass number
What is an ion?
An atom with a charge, either by gaining or losing electrons
When do protons get transferred?
Never. Only electrons transfer
What are isotopes?
Same number of protons but with a different number of neutrons
