Answer
Brief Explanations:
- An atom is electrically neutral with equal protons and electrons. An ion is charged, with more or fewer electrons than protons.
- Both atoms and ions have a nucleus with protons and neutrons, and they are made of the same sub - atomic particles (protons, neutrons, electrons).
- For a neutral aluminum atom (Al), atomic number = 13, so there are 13 protons, 13 electrons, and usually 14 neutrons (mass number 27). The electron configuration is 2, 8, 3 in electron shells. For an aluminum ion ($Al^{3 +}$), it has lost 3 electrons, so there are 13 protons, 10 electrons, and still usually 14 neutrons. In the Bohr model, the neutral atom has 3 electron shells with 2, 8, 3 electrons respectively, and the ion has 2 electron shells with 2, 8 electrons respectively. However, as this is text - based, a detailed drawing cannot be provided here but the above description can be used to draw it.
Answer:
- An atom is neutral; an ion is charged due to gain or loss of electrons.
- Both have protons, neutrons in the nucleus and are composed of sub - atomic particles.
- For neutral Al atom: 13 protons, 13 electrons in 3 shells (2, 8, 3), usually 14 neutrons. For $Al^{3+}$ ion: 13 protons, 10 electrons in 2 shells (2, 8), usually 14 neutrons. Use this info to draw Bohr models.
