Distinguishing Among Atoms

# protons in an atom = # electrons Atomic Number Atoms are composed of identical protons, neutrons, and electrons How then are atoms of one element different from another element? Elements are different because they contain different numbers of PROTONS The “atomic number” of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus # protons in an atom = # electrons

Atomic Number Atomic number (Z) of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus of each atom of that element. Element # of protons Atomic # (Z) Carbon 6 Phosphorus 15 Gold 79

Mass Number Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an isotope: Mass # = p+ + n0 Nuclide p+ n0 e- Mass # Oxygen - 10 - 33 42 - 31 15 18 8 8 18 Arsenic 75 33 75 Phosphorus 16 15 31

Isotopes Dalton was wrong about all elements of the same type being identical Atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons. Thus, different mass numbers. These are called isotopes.

Isotopes Frederick Soddy (1877-1956) proposed the idea of isotopes in 1912 Isotopes are atoms of the same element having different masses, due to varying numbers of neutrons. Soddy won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1921 for his work with isotopes and radioactive materials.

We can also put the mass number after the name of the element: Naming Isotopes We can also put the mass number after the name of the element: carbon-12 carbon-14 uranium-235

Isotopes Elements occur in nature as mixtures of isotopes.

Atomic Mass How heavy is an atom of oxygen? It depends, because there are different kinds of oxygen atoms. We are more concerned with the average atomic mass. This is based on the abundance (percentage) of each variety of that element in nature. We don’t use grams for this mass because the numbers would be too small.

Measuring Atomic Mass Instead of grams, the unit we use is the Atomic Mass Unit (amu) It is defined as one-twelfth the mass of a carbon-12 atom. Carbon-12 chosen because of its isotope purity. Each isotope has its own atomic mass, thus we determine the average from percent abundance.

To calculate the average: Multiply the atomic mass of each isotope by it’s abundance (expressed as a decimal), then add the results. If not told otherwise, the mass of the isotope is expressed in atomic mass units (amu)

Composition of the nucleus Atomic Masses Atomic mass is the average of all the naturally occurring isotopes of that element. Isotope Symbol Composition of the nucleus % in nature Carbon-12 12C 6 protons 6 neutrons 98.89% Carbon-13 13C 7 neutrons 1.11% Carbon-14 14C 8 neutrons <0.01% Carbon = 12.011
