Describe what would happen if a positively sodium atom and a negatively charged chloringe atom came into contact?
Sodium chloride is formed.
How would you describe the atomic number?
Atomic number is about protons. It symbolises the protons an atom has.
How would you describe an atom in which the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons?
You could describe it as neutral as the charge of the protons cancels out the charge of the electrons, essentially though it is just a normal atom as if the number of protons was different to the number of electrons, it would be classed as an ion.
What does the atomic number describe about an atom?
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom
How does the Bohr model describe the atom?
It describes it because it is atom model and it had a nucelus, protoins and electrons
How would i describe what an electrian cloud model of the atom looks like?

How would you describe the Lewis dot structure for cation?
When an atom loses an electron it becomes positively charged.
Which best describe the nucles of an atom?
It is the part of the atom with the greatest mass
What does the atomic number describe about an atom?
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom
Where would you find a nucleus in a city?
The term nucleus is used to describe the center of something, usually an atom or a cell; it could be used to describe the center of a city as well.
What is a parent atom?
A parent atom is a term used to describe the original state of an atom or element before it undergoes a chemical change. For instance, it may be used when discussing radioactive decay. The original element would be the parent atom, and the element that results from the radioactive decay would be the daughter atom. It may also be used when discussing ions. The parent atom would be the element before it undergoes ionization, and the daughter atom would be the resulting cation or anion.
How do you describe the atom?
Smallest unit of matter that is indivisible.
Describe the structure of a water molecule?
A water molecule has a single Oxygen atom bound to two Hydrogen atoms at approximately 120o. Think of Mickey Mouse's head - his face would be the Oxygen atom, and his ears would be the Hydrogen atoms.
What contribution to atomic theory resulted from Albert Einsteins work?
a new model of the atom that describe electrons as being in a cloud
