Properties of Atoms and PT
Democritus- said that all atoms are small hard particles Aristotle- believed that you would never end up with a particle that could not be cut.
1. All substances are made of atoms. Atoms are small particles that cannot be created divided or destroyed. 2. Atoms of the same element are exactly alike and atoms of different elements are different 3. Atoms join with other atoms to make new substances
Thompson discovered electrons Rutherford- found the nucleus Bohr- improved the atomic theory with orbitals
Quarks Quarks
Bohr’s idea- electrons move around the nucleus in energy levels Electrons can jump from one energy level to another.
Schrodinger and Heisenberg came up with quantum mechanics model-the exact path of an electron cannot be predicted. AKA electron cloud theory
Mendeleev wrote the first periodic table 18 families or groups going vertically 7 periods or series going horizontally Based on atomic masses
Moseley determined the number of protons the atomic number as the basis for a periodic table Periodic law states that the repeating chemical and physical properties of elements change periodically with the element’s atomic number
Metals Nonmetals Metalloids
Each element has a one or two letter symbol which stands for the name of the element. First letter is capitalized the second is in small case
A. Group contains: Metals B. Electrons in outer level: 1 C. Reactivity: very reactive D. Other shared properties: softness, color of silver, low density, shininess
A. Group contains : Metals B. Electrons in outer level: 2 C. Reactivity: very reactive but slightly less than alkali metals D. Other shared properties: color of silver, higher densities than alkali metals
A. Group contains: Metals B. Electrons in outer level: 1 or 2 C. Reactivity: less reactive than alkaline earth metals D. Other shared properties: good conductors of electricity and current higher densities and melting points than group 1 and 2 metals
