For the following statements, write $T$ for True and $F$ for False.
$(a)$ J.J. Thomson proposed that the nucleus of an atom contains only nucleons.
$(b)$ A neutron is formed by an electron and a proton combining together. Therefore, it is neutral.
$(c)$ The mass of an electron is about $\frac {1}{ 2000}$ times that of proton.
$(d)$ An isotope of iodine is used for making tincture iodine, which is used as a medicine.

Define valency by taking examples of silicon and oxygen.
Compare all the proposed models of an atom given in this chapter.
Find the valency of chlorine, sulphur and magnesium ?
Composition of the nuclei of two atomic species $X$ and $Y$ are given as under
$X$ | $Y$ | |
Protons $=$ | $6 $ | $6 $ |
Neutrons $=$ | $6 $ | $8$ |
Give the mass numbers of $X$ and $Y$. What is the relation between the two species ?
On the basis of Thomson’s model of an atom, explain how the atom is neutral as a whole.
