2.2. Reactivity refers toReactivity refers to how likely anhow likely an
element is to form a compoundelement is to form a compound withwith
another element.another element.
3.3. When looking at Bohr models, we look atWhen looking at Bohr models, we look at
itsits valence electronsvalence electrons (the electrons on(the electrons on
the last energy level) to determinethe last energy level) to determine

In order to draw Bohr models of these elements, youIn order to draw Bohr models of these elements, you
must first determine the number of protons, neutrons,must first determine the number of protons, neutrons,
and electrons. Once you have found this information,and electrons. Once you have found this information,
follow the directions to draw your model.follow the directions to draw your model.
