Juaquin illustrated his Bohr model with extremely small electrons compared to his protons and neutrons. Which statement best expresses Juaquin’s reasoning?

A. The electrons’ mass is so much less than neutrons and protons they need to be drawn smaller.

A. The electrons are so far from the neutrons and protons they need to be drawn smaller.

A. The electrons move so fast compared to the neutrons and protons they need to be drawn smaller.

A. The electron’s energy is so much less than neutrons and protons they need to be drawn smaller

A. Sodium has only one valence electron, while magnesium has two.

A. Sodium atoms typically have one more neutron than magnesium atoms.

A. Sodium has a smaller atomic mass, while magnesium has a larger atomic mass.

A. Sodium atoms tend to attract the electrons of other atoms more than magnesium atoms.

Which statement best describes an atom?

A. Atoms have a tightly packed nucleus and electrons in continuous motion.

A. The outer rings of an atom contain motionless electrons and neutrons.

As the students were studying aquifers, the teacher demonstrated the effect of hydrochloric acid on limestone rock. The students observed that bubbles were produced and an awkward scent was released when the acid and limestone came into contact. Based on the students’ observations which conclusion is most accurate in regards to the acid and limestone demonstration?

A. Acid and limestone chemically react and with time this chemical reaction changes the limestone rock into a new substance.

Acid and limestone physically react and with time the acid will simply run off the rock.

Acid and limestone physically react but due to the strength of acid it will soon break down the rock.

A. Acid and limestone chemically react but due to the thickness of the limestone rock it will always be a limestone rock.
