1. How does Bohrs model of the atom differ from Rutherfords?

Rutherford described the atom as consisting of a tiny positive mass surrounded by a cloud
of negative electrons. Bohr thought that electrons orbited the nucleus in quantised orbits.
Bohr built upon Rutherford's model of the atom.

2. What happens when an electron returns to its ground state from its excited state?

When an electron gets excited it gains energy and jumps to a higher energy level. When it
returns to its ground state, a lower energy level, it releases this energy. The energy is released
in the form of a visible wavelength. This means that we see a color as the energy is
emitted.

7. Define ground state.

the lowest energy state of an atom or other particle.

10. What is an orbital?

An atomic orbital is a mathematical function that describes the wave-like behavior of

either one electron or a pair of electrons in an atom. This function can be used to
calculate the probability of finding any electron of an atom in any specific region around
the atom's nucleus.

52. Determine the mass in grams represented by 2.50 mol tellurium.

Number of moles= Mass/ Molar mass
=> Mass= Moles* Molar mass
= 2.5* 127.6 g
=> Mass = 319 g

55.Calculate the number of atoms present in each of the following:

a. a. 2 mol Fe
b. b. 40.1 g Ca, which has an atomic mass of 40.08 amu
c. c. 4.5 mol of boron-11
2 mol Fe * (6.02 * 10 ^ 23) = 1.20 * 10 ^ 24 [3 sig figs]
1 mol Ca * (6.02 * 10 ^ 23) = 6.02 * 10 ^ 23 [3 sig figs]
4.5 mol boron-11 * (6.02 * 10 ^ 23) = 2.7 * 10 ^ 24 [2 sig figs]
