Answers
1
Which scientist determined that almost all of an atom's mass is located in its nuclei
Rutherford
Democritus
Dalton
Thomson
2
The volume of an atom is made up mostly of:
protons
empty space
neutrons
electrons
3
The atomic number is defined by its number of:

4
An atom has no net electrical charge because:
The number of neutrons = the number of electrons
The number of neutrons = the number of protons
the subatomic particles do not carry electrical charges
number of protons = number of electrons

16
Which of the following is true for any atom?
Atomic # = number of protons = number of electrons
Mass # = number of protons = number of neutrons
Mass # = number of protons = number of electrons
Atomic number = number of neutrons = number of electrons.
