Illustrate a model of a calcium atom including the number and position of protons neutrons and electrons in the atom
1 answer:
The model would look something like the image below.
There would be a <em>central nucleus</em> containing <em>20 protons</em> and <em>20 neutrons</em>.
Surrounding the nucleus would be four concentric rings (energy levels) containing <em>20 electron</em>s.
Going out from the nucleus, the number of electrons in each ring would
be <em>2, 8, 8, 2</em>.
