QUESTION 21

How is the organization of the Periodic Table of Elements related to the number of electrons in the outermost shell of atoms?

Within a given row, all electrons are within the same shell.

The electrons within elements in the leftmost column fill the lowest energy shells.

A different column in the Periodic Table corresponds to a different shell.

A different row in the Periodic Table corresponds to a different shell.

QUESTION 22

In the Rutherford model of the atom, electrons would not stay in orbit very long because they would spiral down into the nucleus. Yet, the Rutherford Model is similar to the planetary model of the solar system. Why don’t the planets spiral down into the Sun?

The gravitational force is much, much weaker than the electrical force so the effectis virtually non-existent.

Because the planets and Sun are much larger than electrons and a nucleus.

Unlike the gravitational force, the electrical force between two objects increases withtheir separation.

Unlike electrons, planets are not accelerating and therefore don’t emit energy in theform of radiation.

QUESTION 25

The covalent bond is like the ionic bond because of _________, and it is like the metallic bond because of __________.

the sharing of electrons; the many atoms involved

the relatively few number of atoms involved; the sharing of electrons

the transfer of electrons from one atom to another; the many atoms involved

the few number of atoms involved; the transfer of electrons
