Questions
  1. Question
    Three of these statements about Bohr's model are false.
    Choices
    1. Item
      It explained the hydrogen spectrum
      Correct
      Yes
    2. Explanation
      It could not explain their spectra.
      Item
      It worked for multi-electron atoms
    3. Explanation
      Bohr treated the electron as a particle in an orbit.
      Item
      It included the electron's wave nature
    4. Explanation
      A definite orbit contradicts that principle.
      Item
      It agrees with the uncertainty principle
  2. Question
    Three of these statements about Thomson's model are false.
    Choices
    1. Item
      Electrons embedded in positive charge
      Correct
      Yes
    2. Explanation
      That is Rutherford's picture, not Thomson's.
      Item
      It featured a dense central nucleus
    3. Explanation
      Alpha-particle scattering disproved it.
      Item
      It survived the scattering experiment
    4. Explanation
      Fixed orbits came later, with Bohr.
      Item
      It described fixed electron orbits
Each trap awards a model an achievement that belongs to a later one. Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Ch 2 Structure of Atom.
