Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

What name is given to Thomson's model of the atom?

  1. The plum pudding model
  2. The billiard ball model
  3. The shell model
  4. The nuclear model
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A — The plum pudding model
Award 1 mark. It pictured a ball of positive charge with electrons dotted through it, rather like fruit in a pudding, and it contained no nucleus.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

Which subatomic particle did J. J. Thomson discover?

  1. The electron
  2. The proton
  3. The neutron
  4. The nucleus
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A — The electron
Award 1 mark. Finding a particle smaller than an atom showed that atoms could be divided, which Dalton's model had said was impossible.

AQA GCSE Chemistry: Atomic structure and the periodic table: development of the atomic model FAQ

Is Kramizo free for AQA GCSE students preparing for Chemistry?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Atomic structure and the periodic table: development of the atomic model practice with other Chemistry topics or even switch to a totally different AQA subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Atomic structure and the periodic table: development of the atomic model questions aligned to the official AQA GCSE Chemistry syllabus?
Every question is written against the published AQA GCSE Chemistry specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real AQA paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from AQA.
How is Atomic structure and the periodic table: development of the atomic model typically tested on AQA GCSE Chemistry papers?
Atomic structure and the periodic table: development of the atomic model appears across multiple question types on real AQA GCSE Chemistry papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
