Section C – Short Answer Questions (4 × 3 = 12 marks)


15. Bohr’s Atomic Model (Any four points):
Electrons revolve around the nucleus in fixed circular orbits called shells.
Each shell has a fixed energy level.
Electrons do not lose energy while revolving in a shell.
Energy is absorbed or emitted when electrons jump from one shell to another.
16. Distribution of electrons in shells:
Maximum number of electrons in a shell = 2n² (where n = shell number).
K shell can hold 2 electrons.
L shell can hold 8 electrons.
Outer shell cannot have more than 8 electrons.
17. Differences between protons and electrons:

Proton Electron
