Miss Alanious 100

1. What kind of spectra is produced by an incandescent light bulb? ______________

• Answer: Continuous light spectra

Miss Alanious 200

• What two things did Rutherford discover in his experiments?

• ________________

• ________________

• Answer: The nucleus and the atom was mostly empty space.

Miss Alanious 300

1. What causes elements to emit certain colors when viewed through a spectroscope?

• Answer: The excitement of electrons which move them to higher orbits. When electrons return to their “ground state” a photon of light is released.

1. Draw a labeled diagram of the “Bohr Model” for a neutral atom of Lithium (Li). Include all the basic particles in their proper locations.

• Answer:

Miss Alanious 500

1. Describe the Rutherford experiments. What did he do to discover what he discovered?

• Answer: The experiment shot alpha particles at gold foil counting the number of particles that passed through and repelled from the gold foil. Rutherford discovered the atom’s nucleus and that the atom was made up of mostly empty space.

Miss Alanious 600

• Why do positive ions attract to negative ions? What type of bonds do they form?

• Answer: Ions attract because they are opposite charges and they form ionic bonds

Final Jeopardy

• What did the Bohr model help to explain that the Rutherford model did not?

• AnswerThe Bohr Model explained that electrons exist in orbits

outside the nucleus and become excited because of energy and release different colors (photons) of light.
