Question

For the following problems, draw a Bohr model. Label the number of protons and neutrons and draw in the number of electrons as dots in energy levels (orbits). Indicate the charge of each subatomic particle. REMEMBER, the Bohr mode is not the most accurately accepted model of an atom; it is just the easiest to draw. 1. Lithium 3 p+ 4 no 2. Fluorine 3. Argon how do I draw this fluorine and argon boron beryllium hydrogen phosphorus magnesium carbon

Answer 1

I'll guide you on drawing the Bohr models for each of the given elements:

1. Lithium:
- Lithium has 3 protons (p+) and 4 neutrons (no).
- The Bohr model for lithium will have 3 electrons (e-) distributed in two energy levels (orbits).
- The first energy level can accommodate a maximum of 2 electrons, and the second energy level can hold the remaining electron.
- Draw the nucleus in the center and represent the first energy level as a circle closest to the nucleus. Place 2 electrons in this circle.
- Represent the second energy level as another circle further away from the nucleus and place 1 electron in this circle.

2. Fluorine:
- Fluorine has 9 protons (p+) and 10 neutrons (no).
- The Bohr model for fluorine will have 9 electrons (e-) distributed in two energy levels.
- Following the same steps as before, draw the nucleus, the first energy level, and place 2 electrons in it.
- The second energy level will hold the remaining 7 electrons.

3. Argon:
- Argon has 18 protons (p+) and 22 neutrons (no).
- The Bohr model for argon will have 18 electrons (e-) distributed in three energy levels.
- Draw the nucleus, the first energy level, and place 2 electrons in it.
- The second energy level will hold 8 electrons, and the third energy level will accommodate the remaining 8 electrons.

For the remaining elements you mentioned, here is the number of protons and neutrons for each, but I won't provide detailed Bohr models for all of them:

- Boron: 5 protons (p+) and 6 neutrons (no).
- Beryllium: 4 protons (p+) and 5 neutrons (no).
- Hydrogen: 1 proton (p+) and 0 neutrons (no).
- Phosphorus: 15 protons (p+) and 16 neutrons (no).
- Magnesium: 12 protons (p+) and 12 neutrons (no).
- Carbon: 6 protons (p+) and 6 neutrons (no).

Remember to place the electrons in the energy levels according to the rules of the Bohr model. The first energy level can hold a maximum of 2 electrons, the second energy level can hold up to 8 electrons, and the third energy level can hold up to 18 electrons.
