4. Which is a possible correct Bohr model for Carbon? (Use a periodic table for reference).

Option 1

Option 2

Option 3

5. Complete the following:

Element	# of protons	# of neutrons	Atomic mass (amu)	Atomic number	Number of electrons
W	38	49	X	Y	Z

W = Element is Indium , X = 87; Y = 49 and Z = 38

W = Element is Indium , X = 87; Y = 49 and Z = 49

W = Element is Strontium, X = 87; Y = 38 and Z = 38

W = Element is Strontium, X = 87; Y = 38 and Z = 39
