Matching pairs
  1. Left
    Thomson's model
    Right
    disproved by alpha-particle scattering
  2. Left
    Rutherford's model
    Right
    could not explain the atom's stability
  3. Left
    Bohr's model
    Right
    failed for multi-electron atoms
The failures are what drove the next model, and they are the examinable part. Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Ch 2 Structure of Atom.

Order the atomic models as they were proposed

Read exercise and reference answers
Steps
  1. Dalton: the atom is the ultimate indivisible particle
  2. Thomson: a sphere of positive charge with electrons embedded
  3. Rutherford: a tiny dense nucleus with electrons revolving around it
  4. Bohr: electrons in fixed circular orbits of definite energy
  5. Schrodinger: a wave equation giving energy states and orbitals
syllabus walks through them in this order, each answering what the previous one could not: Dalton 1808, Thomson 1898, Rutherford 1909, Bohr 1913, Schrodinger 1926. Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Ch 2 Structure of Atom.
