Periodic Table Study Guide How to Draw Bohr Diagrams www.middleschoolscience.com 2008
Bohr Diagrams • Find your element on the periodic table. • Determine the number of electrons – it is the same as the atomic number. • This is how many electrons you will draw.
Bohr Diagrams • Find out which period (row) your element is in. • Elements in the 1st period have one energy level. • Elements in the 2nd period have two energy levels, and so on. www.chem4kids.com
Bohr Diagrams • Draw a nucleus with the element symbol, number of protons, & number of neutrons inside. • Carbon is in the 2nd period, so it has two energy levels, or shells. • Draw the shells around the nucleus. C P=6 N=6
Bohr Diagrams • Add the electrons. • Carbon has 6 electrons. • The first shell can only hold 2 electrons. C P=6 N=6
Bohr Diagrams • Since you have 2 electrons already drawn, you need to add 4 more. • These go in the 2nd shell. • Add one at a time -starting at the top and going clock-wise. C P=6 N=6
Bohr Diagrams • Check your work. • You should have 6 total electrons for Carbon. • Only two electrons can fit in the 1st shell. • The 2nd shell can hold up to 8 electrons. • The 3rd shell can hold up to 18, but the elements in the first few periods only use 8 electrons. C P=6 N=6
