4. The difference of opinion about the atomic model according to Rutherford and Bohr is …
|
Rutherford |
Bohr |
|
| A |
The atom consists of a positively charged nucleus and a negatively charged electron that travels around the nucleus |
The electrons move around the nucleus and the atomic mass is centered at its core |
| B |
The electrons surround the nucleus while releasing energy |
The electrons surround the nucleus on a certain path |
| C |
Electrons in their stationary path absorb energy |
Electrons can leaving the path by absorbing/releasing energy |
| D |
Electrons are part of a negative electrically charged atom |
Electrons are spread in the nucleus of the atom |
| E |
The atomic mass is centered on a small location called the nucleus |
Mass of atom same in all point in an atom |
Solution
The correct answer is B.

5. The true statement of Rutherford’s atomic model and Bohr’s atomic model is …
|
Rutherford |
Bohr |
|
| A |
All positive charges and some atomic mass are present in the nucleus of the atom |
Electrons cannot move around the nucleus through each passage |
| B |
The positive electric charge is neutralized by the electrons scattered between the charges |
The electrons of atoms occupy the orbital path called the energy level |
| C |
Atom is neutral |
The energy of electrons in the atom is expressed by the energy level |
| D |
Attractive nuclei and electron nuclei create a centripetal force in electrons that result in the electrons remaining in their orbits |
The electrons can move from one orbit (path) to another one by releasing energy or absorbing energy |
| E |
The nucleus is surrounded by electrons that rotate on a path like a planet |
In one reaction only the electrons on the outside are subject to change while the nucleus does not change |
Solution
The correct answer is D.
