Atomic number (Z) = number of protons in nucleus Mass number (A) = number of protons + number of neutrons = atomic number (Z) + number of neutrons Isotopes are atoms of the same element (X) with different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei X A Z H 1 1 H (D) 2 1 H (T) 3 1 U U Mass Number Atomic Number Element Symbol Fissionable

Molecule - an aggregate of two or more atoms in a definite arrangement held together by chemical bonds H2H2 H2OH2ONH 3 CH 4 Diatomic molecule - contains only two atoms H 2, N 2, O 2, Br 2, HCl, CO Polyatomic molecule - contains more than two atoms O 3, H 2 O, NH 3, CH 4
These seven elements occur naturally as molecules containing two atoms. Diatomic Molecules Fig 2.19
Molecular formula - shows the exact number of atoms of each element in the smallest unit of a substance Empirical formula - shows the simplest whole-number ratio of the atoms in a substance H2OH2O H2OH2O molecularempirical C 6 H 12 O 6 CH 2 O O3O3 O N2H4N2H4 NH 2
Analogous to Figure 2.21
Ion - an atom, or group of atoms, that has a net positive or negative charge. cation – ion with a positive charge If a neutral atom loses one or more electrons it becomes a cation. anion – ion with a negative charge If a neutral atom gains one or more electrons it becomes an anion. Na 11 protons 11 electrons Na + 11 protons 10 electrons Cl 17 protons 17 electrons Cl - 17 protons 18 electrons
Ions Fig 2.22 When atoms lose or gain electrons, they become ions: –Cations are positive - formed by elements on the left side of the periodic chart. –Anions are negative - formed by elements on the right side of the periodic chart.
Ionic Bonds Ionic compounds (such as NaCl) - formed between metals and nonmetals. No molecules exist in an ionic compound! Formula always the same as empirical formula. Fig 2.23
Monatomic ion - contains only one atom Polyatomic ion - contains more than one atom Na +, Cl -, Ca 2+, O 2-, Al 3+, N 3- OH -, CN -, NH 4 +, NO 3 -
