The ElementsElements 2

3 Properties of Matter If you break a piece of matter in half, and then break it in half again, how many breaks will you have to make before you can break it no further?

4 The Building Blocks of Matter Atom: tiny building blocks of matter, made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons Elements: substances that are made up of only one type of atom

5 What makes up an Atom? Protons: particles that have a positive (+) charge Neutrons: particles that have no electric charge Electrons: particles that have a negative (-) charge A n a t o m i s m o s t l y e m p t y s p a c e !

6 The term electron cloud is used to describe the area around an atomic nucleus where an electron will probably be. It is also described as the “fuzzy” orbit of an electron.

7 How many protons and neutrons ? Atomic Number = the # of protons (+) in the element.  Ex: all Iron atoms contain 26 protons Atomic Mass = the # of protons (+) plus the # of neutrons.

8 How many electrons? Neutral atom: the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons  8 p+ = 8 e- Positive charge: the number of protons is greater than the number of electrons  8 p+ > 6 e- Negative charge: the number of protons is less than the number of electrons  8 p+ < 10 e-

9 Isotopes Isotopes: Atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons.  Medical doctors use radioactive isotopes to treat certain types of cancer; geologists use isotopes to determine the ages of some rocks and fossils.

10 Introduction to the Elements: Element Song By: Tom Leher

11 Looking at the Periodic Table text page 106 Elements are arranged according to increasing atomic number Elements are separated into columns (called groups) and rows (called periods).

13 Electron Orbital All of the elements in a period have the same # of atomic orbitals. All of the elements in a group have the same # of electrons in their outer orbital, or shell. A valence electron is an electron located in the outermost shell (shell) of the atom, that can be transferred to or shared with another atom.

Drawing atomic models 14

Using the rules draw : 15 Boron Oxygen

Now in your notebook draw Helium and Lithium 16

Homework: Complete the worksheet on drawing atoms. See if you can figure out 19 and 20 17

How to draw isotopes 18

Now try these 19

20 Stability & Chemical Bonding If matter is stable, it tends not to bond with other atoms.  Ex: salt (outer energy level is full) If it is unstable, it is more likely to bond with atoms.  Ex: copper (outer energy level is not full)

21 Compounds Compounds: Matter that is made of 2 or more elements & has physical and chemical properties different from each of the elements that make it up.  Ex: Water is made up of hydrogen and oxygen (H 2 0) and table salt is sodium chloride (NaCl) Compounds must be separated by chemical means Ex: drop HCl on CaCO3 and CO2 is released.

22 Bonding Covalent Bonds: When atoms share the electrons in the outer portion of their electron cloud Ionic Bonds: When one ion gains or loses an electron to another ion, they bond together.

23 Mixtures Mixture: 2 or more substances that are NOT chemically combined Heterogeneous mixture: not mixed evenly & components retain their own properties  Ex: trail mix, rock, beach sand Homogeneous mixtures: evenly mixed throughout & components do not retain their own properties  Ex: Kool-aid, salt water, cake batter Mixtures can be separated by physical means Ex: Let the water evaporate from a saltwater mixture

Balloon Bonding You will show me ionic and covalent bonds using the balloon as your electron 24

How to draw Louis dot structure 1. draw the element 2. Erase middle (leave the outer shell) 3. Replace middle with symbol 4. Only leave the outer shell electrons 25

Now lets try some louis dot structures on the white boards Boron Carbon Sodium Helium Argon Yttrium Tin Polonium Krypton –Why is this one different? The rule of octet 26

Ionic Bonds (metal + nonmetal): Draw Na and Draw Cl It is easier for Na to loose 1 and Cl to gain 1 so NA would be 1+ and Cl would be 1- because of the amount of positive and negative charges they have 27

Covalent Bonds (nonmetals) : Atoms share electrons No charges How does h2O happen? Try to draw it 28

29 Balancing Equations In a chemical reaction substances change into other substances by the breaking of old chemical bonds and the forming of new ones. To represent chemical reactions we use symbols and formulas called chemical equations. Law of Conservation of Matter: matter can not be created nor destroyed, only changed from one form to another.

30 Balancing Equations cont. Balanced chemical equation has the same # of atoms of each element on the left side (reactants) of the yield (arrow) as on the right side (product). Arrow (  ) means “reacts to produce” or “yields” Substances on the LEFT side are reactants Substances on the RIGHT side are products Subscript: number of atoms present of an element in a formula  Cannot be changed in the equation Coefficient: places in front of a formula to change the number of atoms of each element

31 Balance the following equations: ___F 2 + ___S  ___SF 6 ___Zn + ___O 2  ___ZnO ___H 2 + ___I 2  ___HI ___B + ___F 2  ___BF 3 ___N 2 + ___H 2  ___NH 3
