The Atom  The atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains the chemical properties of that element.  Consist of smaller particles and their number and arrangement of these particles within the atom determine it’s chemical property  Consists of 2 regions

Atoms 2 regions 1) Nucleus: very small, located near the center of an atom 2) Electrons: surrounds the nucleus 1) Large region compared to nucleus Nucleus Electron shells

Subatomic particles  3 subatomic particles 1. Protons: positive charge Within nucleus 2. Neutrons: neutral charge 3. Electrons: negative charge

Atomic Anatomy The gas of an atomWhat they look like “Subatomic Particles”# e - = # p + (for neutral atoms) Particle (symbol) MassChargeLocation Proton P + 1+1nucleus Neutron n 0 10nucleus Electron e- 0Outside, orbiting the nucleus

Chemical Symbol Atomic # Symbol 1 st Letter 2 nd letter Name Average Atomic Mass # of p + + # n 0 # n 0 = mass –atomic # (round mass) 8 O Oxygen

Practice finding # e -, p + and n 0 7 N Nitrogen Na Sodium P Phosphorus 10.97

So how do we draw the atoms? Ex: Li – Three protons (atomic number) 3 Li Lithium P+

Four neutron. (mass – atomic number n0n0 n0n0 n0n0 n0n0 p+

Three electrons, in two electron shells n0n0 n0n0 e- p+ e- ____p + ____n 0

Positions of electrons Shell ## of e- 12Go in as a pair 281 in each of 4 places then pair up 38 (sort of - more to come)1 in each of 4 places then pair up 48 (sort of – more to come)1 in each of 4 places then pair up
