Chesmistry C4

?
What is the Nucleus of an atom?
It is in the middle of the atom and contains protons and neutrons. It also has a positive charge. Almost the whole mass of the atom is concentrated in the nucleus
1 of 8
What are electrons?
They move around the nucleus and are negatively charged. They are arranged in shells around the nucleus.
2 of 8
What are the relative masses and charges of protons, neutrons and electrons?
Proton- Relative mass= 1 Charge= +1 Neutron- Relative mass= 1 Charge= 0 Electron- Relative mass= 0.0005 Charge= -1

What are the number of protons always equal to in a neutral atom?
What are the number of protons always equal to in a neutral atom?

What are the symbols for solid, liquid, gas and desolved in water?
s (solid) l (liquid) g (gas) aq (desolved in water)
5 of 8
What flame colours do lithium, sodium and Potassium produce?
red (lithum) yellow/orange (sodium) lilac (potassium)

What is a line spectrum?
When heated electrons become excited and produce light energy. The wavelenghts can be recorded as a line spectrum. Different elements have different wavelenghts due to each element having a different electron arrangment.
