SHORT REVIEW!!

BEFORE YOUR QUIZ

An atom consists of three subatomic particles called
protons, electrons and neutrons.
Electrons are negatively charged particles found
outside the nucleus. Protons are positively charged
particles found inside the nucleus. Neutrons are
electrically neutral and are located in the nucleus of an
atom.
The atomic number is the number of protons in the
nucleus of the atom. The mass number represents the
sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the
atom.
The process in which an atom loses, or
gains electrons is called ionization.
When an atom loses or gains one or more
electrons, it acquires a net electrical charge
and it is called an ion.
A positive ion is called cation.
A negative ion is called an anion.
Ernest Rutherford
discovered the nucleus of the
atom using his alpha
scattering experiment.

James Chadwick
Found a neutral particle (no
net electrial charge) inside
the nucleus and called this
particle, neutron.
Niels Bohr make the atomic
model similar to the solar
system where electrons are
found revolving around the
nucleus.

John Dalton proposed the

atomic theory of matter in 1803.
He pictured the atom as a solid
indestructible sphere with a mass
like billiard ball.
