1. Based on the nuclear model, and assuming that the atom is spherical in shape, draw the hydrogen, helium, and lithium atoms showing the locations of their protons, neutrons, and electrons. Hydrogen-1 proton, 1 neutron, 1 electron Helium - 2 protons, 2 neutrons, 2 electrons Lithium - 3 protons, 4 neutrons, 3 electrons a. In what ways are the drawn atomic models similar? In what ways are they different? b. Did you find it easy to make the drawings? Why or why not?

One of the best indications of a useful theory is that it raises more questions for further experimentation than it originally answered. How does this apply to Dalton’s atomic theory? Give examples.
Your friend tells you about an article that he read in a tabloid that reported the discovery of a new form of carbon containing eight protons in the nucleus of its atoms. He claims that scientists are eager to explore the properties of this new form of carbon. What is wrong with the tabloid's claim? a. Nothing. The claim is believable. b. The claim must be false because an atom with eight protons would be oxygen, which is already known. c. The claim must be false because all forms of carbon are already known.
