MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. The earliest atomic theory is generally associated with
a. Bohr
b. Leucippus
c. Democritus
d. Dalton
ANS: B
Although his theory was somewhat vague, Leucippus is most often the earliest person
associated with atomic theory.

REF: 16 OBJ: 1

2. The word atom is derived from the Greek word atomos, meaning
a. nuclear
b. small
c. indivisible
d. invisible
ANS: C
The Greek word atomos means “indivisible.”

REF: 16 OBJ: 1

3. In the early 1800s English chemist John Dalton theorized that
a. elements form compounds
b. atoms are unique to each element in size and mass
c. a chemical reaction results from atoms being rearranged
d. all of the above
ANS: D
As a result of his experiments, John Dalton theorized that elements form compounds, atoms
are unique to each element in size and mass, and that a chemical reaction results from atoms
being rearranged.

REF: 16 OBJ: 1

4. Discovery of the electron is attributed to
a. Dalton
b. Bohr
c. Thomson
d. Rutherford
ANS: C
Joseph John “J.J.” Thomson determined that the electron was a negatively charged part of the

5. The “plum pudding model” is associated with
a. Bohr
b. Rutherford
c. Dalton
d. Thomson
ANS: D
Based on the physical arrangement of raisins in a plum pudding, Thomson described the atom
and surrounding negatively charged particles (electrons).

REF: 17 OBJ: 1

6. The earliest atomic theory based on an arrangement similar to the solar system is attributed to
a. Bohr
b. Rutherford
c. Dalton
d. Thomson
ANS: B
Rutherford developed the theory that the atom consisted of a very dense nucleus with small
electrons rotating around, similar to the sun and planets.

REF: 17 OBJ: 1

7. The most commonly known modern atomic theory was developed by
a. Bohr
b. Rutherford
c. Dalton
d. Thomson
ANS: A
Niels Bohr refined Rutherford’s atomic theory, based on the solar system, into the most
commonly known atomic theory today.

REF: 18 OBJ: 1

8. The three fundamental particles of the atom are the
a. element, nucleus, and electron
b. electron, nucleus, and proton
c. neutron, electron, and proton
d. nucleus, proton, and neutron
ANS: C
The three fundamental components of the atom are the proton, electron, and neutron.

REF: 18 OBJ: 2

9. The atomic nucleus contains
a. protons and neutrons
b. protons and electrons

c. electrons and neutrons
d. all of the above
ANS: A
The atomic nucleus contains varying amounts of protons and neutrons, depending on the
element.

REF: 18 OBJ: 2

10. The component of the nucleus that has a positive charge and mass is the
a. electron
b. neutron
c. proton
d. none of the above
ANS: C
The proton is the part of the nucleus that has a positive charge and mass.

REF: 18 OBJ: 3

11. The component of the nucleus that has mass but no electrical charge is the
a. electron
b. neutron
c. proton
d. none of the above
ANS: B
The neutron is found in the nucleus; it is very similar to the proton but has no electrical charge
(neutral).

REF: 18 OBJ: 3

12. The fundamental component of the atom that has the smallest mass is the
a. electron
b. neutron
c. proton
d. none of the above
ANS: A
The electron has significantly less mass than the neutron or proton.

REF: 18 OBJ: 3

13. The mass of an atom is primarily due to the mass of the
a. neutrons
b. nucleus
c. electrons
d. protons
ANS: B
The nucleus, consisting of both protons and neutrons, accounts for the majority of the mass of
an atom.
