What are the limitations of the particle model?
1) The model doesn’t show the forces of attraction acting between particles
2) Particles are not solid spheres- they are single atoms, ions or molecules that consist mostly of empty space, molecules have a range of shapes.
Atoms have no overall C…

Atoms have the same number of P… and E…
Protons
Electrons
Why are noble gases the most stable?
They have a full outer shell
What are ions?
Charged atoms (have a different number of protons and electrons
