Atoms and Elements CHAPTER 2
Early day scientists - Greeks were the first to try and explain chemical changes. Believed that all matter consisted of four basic things. (fire, air, water and earth)
Democritus Greek, 460-370 B.C. Created the word atomus (atom) Believed everything was composed of atoms Proposed that the world is made up of empty space and atoms. He believed everything was composed of this and the atom was indivisible.
Alchemy - A pseudo science, purpose of the science was to attempt to make gold. Such elements as Hg, S, and Sb were discovered due to this science.
John Dalton (1766-1844) - English - first to prepare a table of relative atomic weights and the Law of multiple proportions. Dalton’s early day symbols
Law of multiple Proportions - when two elements form a series of compounds , the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with 1 gram of the first element can always be reduced to small whole numbers. Ex: NO and NO2
Law of Multiple Proportions 2 Law of Multiple Proportions 9 2.1
Dalton's Atomic Theory - 1. Each element is made up of tiny particles called atoms. 2. The atoms of a given element are identical; the atoms of different elements are different in some fundamental way or ways. 3. Chemical compounds are formed when atoms combine with each other. A given compound always has the same relative numbers and types of atoms. 4. Chemical reactions involve reorganization of the atoms -- changes in the way they are bound together. The atoms themselves are not changed in a chemical reaction.
J.J. Thomson English, (1856 - 1953) In 1897 discovered the particle the electron. Discovered it by using a cathode ray.
What charge does an electron have? Negative
Cathode Ray Tube A stream of electrons is produced at the negative pole of an applied electric field. The electron was isolated using this device.
J.J. Thomson, measured mass/charge of e- (1906 Nobel Prize in Physics) 14 2.2
George J. Stoney Don’t take down Irish, 1826-1911 In 1891, he proposed the term 'electron' to describe the fundamental unit of electrical charge, and his contributions to research in this area laid the foundations for the eventual discovery of the particle by J.J. Thomson in 1897. Don’t take down
The modern view of the atom was developed by Ernest Rutherford of New Zealand (1871-1937).
(1908 Nobel Prize in Chemistry) particle velocity ~ 1.4 x 107 m/s (~5% speed of light) atoms positive charge is concentrated in the nucleus proton (p) has opposite (+) charge of electron mass of p is 1840 x mass of e- (1.67 x 10-24 g) 17 2.2
Ernest Rutherford Canterbury University in Christchurch, NZ Rutherford laboratory
Rutherford
Ernest Rutherford New Zealand, ( 1871 - 1937) Named the alpha and beta particles and the gamma ray. Named the proton and is known for the use of the foil method to detect the proton. Conducted the gold foil experiment , which led to the discovery of the nucleus
James Chadwick English, (1891-1974) Isolated the neutron in 1932.
ATOMS AND ELEMENTS
ATOM COMPOSITION The atom is mostly empty space protons and neutrons in the nucleus. the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. electrons in space around the nucleus. extremely small. One teaspoon of water has 3 times as many atoms as the Atlantic Ocean has teaspoons of water.
Proton - comes from the Greek meaning " the primary one". Positive charged particle equal in magnitude to the electron's negative charge. Mass = 1.672623 x 10-24 g.
Atomic Number tells the number of protons. 13 Atomic number Al Atom symbol 26.981 Atomic weight
Neutron - neutrally charged particle which has the same mass as the proton. Mass = 1.674926 x 10 -24 g. To find the number of neutrons (Mass # - Atomic # = # neutron)
Electron - Negatively charged particle found orbiting the nucleus of the atom. An atom's activity is primarily determined by the electron. Occupies most of the atom's volume. In a neutral atom , # of electrons = # protons.
ATOMIC COMPOSITION Summary Protons + electrical charge mass = 1.672623 x 10-24 g relative mass = 1.007 atomic mass units (u) Electrons negative electrical charge relative mass = 0.0005 u Neutrons no electrical charge mass = 1.009 u
Antoine Lavoisier French, (1743 - 1794) First to truly explain the true nature of combustion. Used quantitative measurements in his experiments, which led to the Law of conservation of mass.
Antoine Lavoisier Lavoisier named phlogiston (oxygen). The word oxygen comes from the Greek meaning " to form an acid". Was beheaded during the French Revolution.
Law of conservation of mass - states that mass is neither created nor destroyed.
Joseph Proust French, (1754 - 1826) Came up with the principle known as the Law of definite proportions.
Law of Definite Proportions States that a compound always contains exactly the same proportions of elements by weight.
Benjamin Franklin American (1706 - 1790) Discovered two types of electric charge. He named them positive and negative. Experiments showed that like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other.

Michael Faraday English (1791- 1867) Showed that the same quantity of electric current caused different quantities of different metals to deposit, and postulated that those quantities were related to the relative masses of the atoms of those elements.

Periods in the Periodic Table
Momma had a rough day!
Periods - run horizontal and period number tells the number of energy levels.
Metals - have such properties as shiny, conduct electricity, and heat, malleable and ductile. Tend to lose electrons and therefore carry a positive charge. Located left of the zig-zag line.
Ductile - metals can be drawn into wires.
Malleable - metals can be hammered into thin sheets.
Non - metals - Located right of zig - zag line. Tend to gain electrons and therefore tend to carry a negative charge.
Okay how do I let go?
Metalloids - have properties of both metals and non - metals. Located along zig - zag line. B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te
Dmitri Mendeleev Russian, (1834 - 1907) Arranged the elements on the periodic table according to their properties and atomic weight. Others who suggested some form of periodic table were Chancourtois, Newland, and Meyer.
Periodic Table Dmitri Mendeleev developed the modern periodic table. Argued that element properties are periodic functions of their atomic weights. We now know that element properties are periodic functions of their ATOMIC NUMBERS.
