Study Notes
Atomic Structure
- J.J. Thomson discovered the electron and suggested the 'plum pudding' model of the atom.
Rutherford's Model
- In Rutherford's model, electrons are described to orbit the atomic nucleus in energy levels or shells, not in a fixed position.
Protons
- The charge of a proton is +1 elementary charge.
Bohr's Modification
- Bohr introduced the idea of energy quantization, where electrons occupy specific energy levels around the nucleus.
Electrons
- The mass of an electron is approximately 9.10938215 × 10^(-31) kg.
