Defining the Atom Early Models of the Atom Democritus – Greek philosopher suggested the existence of the atom around 400 BC Atoms are _____________________ Idea lacked ______________ support Idea challenged by ________________
Dalton – early 1800’s (2000 yrs. after Democritus) Used experiments (Scientific Method) Studied the nature of atoms & ratios in which elements combine in chemical reactions Dalton’s Atomic Theory: page 102
1 - All elements are composed of _____________________________________ 4.1 1 - All elements are composed of _____________________________________ According to Dalton’s atomic theory, an element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms. a) Atoms of element A are identical. b) Atoms of element B are identical, but differ from those of element A. c) Atoms of elements A and B can physically mix together. d) Atoms of elements A and B can chemically combine to form a compound. Interpreting Diagrams How does a mixture of atoms of different elements differ from a compound?
4.1 2 - Atoms of the same element are _________. The atoms of any one element are ___________ from those of any other element. According to Dalton’s atomic theory, an element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms. a) Atoms of element A are identical. b) Atoms of element B are identical, but differ from those of element A. c) Atoms of elements A and B can physically mix together. d) Atoms of elements A and B can chemically combine to form a compound. Interpreting Diagrams How does a mixture of atoms of different elements differ from a compound?
4.1 3 - Atoms of different elements can _________mix together or can _______________________________________. According to Dalton’s atomic theory, an element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms. a) Atoms of element A are identical. b) Atoms of element B are identical, but differ from those of element A. c) Atoms of elements A and B can physically mix together. d) Atoms of elements A and B can chemically combine to form a compound. Interpreting Diagrams How does a mixture of atoms of different elements differ from a compound?
4.1 4 - Chemical reactions occur when atoms are _________________________. Atoms of one element are _____________________________________in a chemical reaction. According to Dalton’s atomic theory, an element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms. a) Atoms of element A are identical. b) Atoms of element B are identical, but differ from those of element A. c) Atoms of elements A and B can physically mix together. d) Atoms of elements A and B can chemically combine to form a compound. Interpreting Diagrams How does a mixture of atoms of different elements differ from a compound? Scientists used a scanning tunneling microscope to generate this image of iron atoms, shown in blue. The radius of this circle of atoms is just 7.13 × 10-9 m.
Atoms are defined today as _____________________________________ Atoms today are observable with scanning tunneling microscope Dalton’s work stimulated much scientific research into the structure of the atom

Table 4.1 – Properties of Subatomic Particles Neutrons _______________ confirmed the existence of neutrons, 1932 Particle with ____ charge, mass equal to ___________ Table 4.1 – Properties of Subatomic Particles
4.2 Subatomic Particles Table 4.1 summarizes the properties of electrons, protons, and neutrons.
The Atomic Nucleus Scientists tried to answer the question, How are subatomic particles put together in the atom? JJ Thomson – the ‘plum pudding’ model:
The Atomic Nucleus Rutherford’s Gold-Foil Experiment 4.2 In 1911, Rutherford and his coworkers at the University of Manchester, England, directed a narrow beam of alpha particles at a very thin sheet of gold foil.
E Rutherford – student of Thomson Gold foil experiment – figure 4.7 In the plum pudding model, alpha particles should pass through the foil with slight deflections caused by the positive charge spread throughout the gold atoms Results showed that ____________________________________
Rutherford’s new theory: atom is mostly _______________ Positive charge is concentrated in small region – ____________ Nuclear atom – small nucleus with protons and neutrons; electrons occupy most of the volume
