Greek Model Greek philosopher Idea of ‘atomos’ –Atomos = ‘indivisible’ –‘Atom’ is derived No experiments to support idea Democritus’s model of atom No protons, electrons, or neutrons Solid and INDESTRUCTABLE Democritus “To understand the very large, we must understand the very small.”

DEMOCRITUS (400 BC) – First Atomic Hypothesis Atomos: Greek for “uncuttable”. Chop up a piece of matter until you reach the atomos. Properties of atoms: indestructible. changeable, however, into different forms. an infinite number of kinds so there are an infinite number of elements. hard substances have rough, prickly atoms that stick together. liquids have round, smooth atoms that slide over one another. smell is caused by atoms interacting with the nose – rough atoms hurt. sleep is caused by atoms escaping the brain. death – too many escaped or didn’t return. the heart is the center of anger. the brain is the center of thought. the liver is the seat of desire. “Nothing exists but atoms and space, all else is opinion”. Democritus

Four Element Theory Aristotle was an atomist Thought all matter was composed of 4 elements: –Earth (cool, heavy) –Water (wet) –Fire (hot) –Air (light) –Ether (close to heaven) ‘MATTER’ FIRE EARTHAIR WATER Hot Wet Cold Dry Relation of the four elements and the four qualities Blend these “elements” in different proportions to get all substances

Foundations of Atomic Theory Law of Definite Proportions The fact that a chemical compound contains the same elements in exactly the same proportions by mass regardless of the size of the sample or source of the compound. Law of Multiple Proportions If two or more different compounds are composed of the same two elements, then the ratio of the masses of the second element combined with a certain mass of the first elements is always a ratio of small whole numbers. Law of Conservation of Mass Mass is neither destroyed nor created during ordinary chemical reactions.

Legos are Similar to Atoms Lego's can be taken apart and built into many different things. H H O O O O H H H H H H H2H2 H2H2 O2O2 H 2 O H2OH2O + Atoms can be rearranged into different substances.

Law of Multiple Proportions John Dalton (1766 – 1844) If two elements form more than one compound, the ratio of the second element that combines with 1 gram of the first element in each is a simple whole number. e.g. H 2 O & H 2 O 2 water hydrogen peroxide Ratio of oxygen is 1:2 (an exact ratio)

In 1803, Dalton proposed that elements consist of individual particles called atoms. His atomic theory of matter contains four hypotheses: 1. All matter is composed of tiny particles called atoms. 2. All atoms of an element are identical in mass and fundamental chemical properties. 3. A chemical compound is a substance that always contains the same atoms in the same ratio. 4. In chemical reactions, atoms from one or more compounds or elements redistribute or rearrange in relation to other atoms to form one or more new compounds. Atoms themselves do not undergo a change of identity in chemical reactions. The Atomic Theory of Matter Copyright © 2007 Pearson Benjamin Cummings. All rights reserved.

Dalton’s atomic theory is essentially correct, with four minor modifications: 1. Not all atoms of an element must have precisely the same mass. 2. Atoms of one element can be transformed into another through nuclear reactions. 3. The composition of many solid compounds are somewhat variable. 4. Under certain circumstances, some atoms can be divided (split into smaller particles: i.e. nuclear fission). The Atomic Theory of Matter Copyright © 2007 Pearson Benjamin Cummings.

This is the modern atom model. Electrons are in constant motion around the nucleus, protons and neutrons jiggle within the nucleus, and quarks jiggle within the protons and neutrons. This picture is quite distorted. If we drew the atom to scale and made protons and neutrons a centimeter in diameter, then the electrons and quarks would be less than the diameter of a hair and the entire atom's diameter would be greater than the length of thirty football fields! % of an atom's volume is just empty space!

Bohr’s Model Nucleus Electron Orbit Energy Levels

Quantum Mechanical Model Modern atomic theory describes the electronic structure of the atom as the probability of finding electrons within certain regions of space (orbitals). Niels Bohr & Albert Einstein

Development of Atomic Models Rutherford model In the early twentieth century, Rutherford showed that most of an atom's mass is concentrated in a small, positively charged region called the nucleus. Bohr model After Rutherford's discovery, Bohr proposed that electrons travel in definite orbits around the nucleus. Thomson model In the nineteenth century, Thomson described the atom as a ball of positive charge containing a number of electrons. Quantum mechanical model Modern atomic theory described the electronic structure of the atom as the probability of finding electrons within certain regions of space.

Modern View The atom is mostly empty space Two regions –Nucleus protons and neutrons –Electron cloud region where you might find an electron
