Atomic Structure Revision Grade 8 Term 1

This document appears to be a study guide for a grade 8 exam on atomic structure and properties. It contains questions about atomic number, mass number, electrons, isotopes, the periodic table, and early experiments investigating the structure of the atom including cathode rays, anode rays, and J.J. Thomson's discovery of the electron. The questions assess knowledge of atomic structure, subatomic particles, electronic configuration, and chemical properties that arise from atomic structure including bonding and valence electrons.
