9. A1: Using the picture below, what is the reason why a juice company would change the design of their bottle?
A. bottle 2 weighs less than bottle 1 Based on the picture, there is no evidence that one bottle weighs less than the other.

C. bottle 2 is easier to pour than bottle 1 Bottle 2 has a handle which makes it easier to pour.

10. A2: How are compounds and mixtures different?
A. Compounds and mixtures are not different. Compounds must be separated by a chemical reaction, but mixtures can be separated physically. B. Mixtures and compounds can both be separated physically. Mixtures can be separated physically, but compounds cannot. C. Compounds can be separated physically, but mixtures must be separated by a chemical reaction. D. Mixtures can be separated physically, but compounds must be separated by a chemical reaction. For example, a mixture like salt water can be separated physically into salt and water by boiling the water out. In order for a compound like water (H2O) to be separated into hydrogen and oxygen, a chemical reaction must occur.

16. Prioritizing Questions

17. Prioritizing Questions
Review your list of questions and choose three questions (most important; to develop a project, etc.). Mark them with an “X” Remember to keep the QFocus in mind while prioritizing.

18. What is an atom?
Atom: the smallest unit of matter that retains the identity of the substance
First proposed by Democratus.
Democratus was a Greek philosopher who proposed that matter was made up of tiny, indivisible particles he called “atomos” because they could not be cut.

19. Atomic Structure Atoms are composed of 2 regions:
Nucleus: the center of the atom that contains the mass of the atom
Electron cloud: region that surrounds the nucleus that contains most of the space in the atom
Nucleus
Electron
Cloud

20. What’s in the Nucleus?
The nucleus contains 2 of the 3 subatomic particles:
Protons: positively charged subatomic particles
Neutrons: neutral subatomic particles
*Protons and neutrons have the same mass.

21. What’s in the Electron Cloud?
The 3rd subatomic particle resides outside of the nucleus in the electron cloud
Electron: the subatomic particle with a negative charge and relatively no mass

22. How do these particles interact?
Protons and neutrons exist compacted in the tiny positively charged nucleus accounting for most of the mass of the atom
The negatively charged electrons are small and have relatively no mass but occupy a large volume of space outside the nucleus

23. How do the subatomic particles balance each other?
In an atom:
The protons = the electrons
If 20 protons are present in an atom then 20 electrons are there to balance the overall charge of the atom—atoms are neutral
The neutrons have no charge; therefore they do not have to equal the number of protons or electrons

24. Open your textbook or your agenda to the page containing a periodic table of elements (132-133).

25. How do we know the number of subatomic particles in an atom?
Atomic number: this number indicates the number of protons in an atom
Ex: Hydrogen’s atomic number is 1
So hydrogen has 1 proton
Ex: Carbon’s atomic number is 6
So carbon has 6 protons
**The number of protons identifies the atom.
Ex. 2 protons = He, 29 protons = Cu
Point out these numbers on a periodic table in the room or have students access the periodic table in the textbook (pages or near the back cover).

26. Think Pair Share
With your partner, find the atomic number of each element has:
Student A: Carbon (C)
Student B: Potassium (K)
Student A: Beryllium (Be)
Student B: Helium (He)
**After you have completed your element, share with your group.

27. How do we know the number of subatomic particles in an atom?
Mass number: the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus
Ex: Silicon can have a mass of 28.
Since it has 14 proton it must have 14 neutrons
# of neutrons = mass # - atomic #

28. Determining the number of protons and neutrons
Li has a mass number of 7 and an atomic number of 3
Protons = 3 (same as atomic #)
Neutrons= 7-3 = 4 (mass # - atomic #)
Ne has a mass number of 20 and an atomic number of 10
Protons = 10
Neutrons = = 10

29. Try this example on your own!:
Let’s check out Calcium (Ca)!
Calcium’s Atomic Number = 20
Calcium’s Atomic Mass = 40
Calcium’s Neutrons = 20

30. Think Pair Share
Decide how many protons and neutrons each element has.
Student A: Carbon (C)
Student B: Iodine (I)
Student A: Silicon (Si)
Student B: Iron (Fe)

31. What about the electrons?
The electrons are equal to the number of protons
So e- = p+ = atomic #
Ex: Li has a mass # of 7 and an atomic # of 3
p+ = 3
no = 4
e- =3
Easy peasy lemon
squeezy!… 

32. Think Ink Share
Write your answers to the following and then share with your partner.
How many electrons does Mercury (Hg) have?
Barium (Ba)?
Titanium (Ti)?

33. Determine the number of subatomic particles (all 3) in the following:
Examples:
1. Find Chlorine (Cl)
Cl has a mass # of 35 and an atomic # of 17
p+ = 17, no = 18, e- = 17
K has a mass # of 39 and an atomic # of 19
p+ = 19, no = 20 e- = 19

34. Think Ink Share Write your answers and then share with your partner.
Find the number of protons, neutrons and electrons of the following:
Titanium (Ti)
Nickel (Ni)
Copper (Cu)

35. How exactly are the particles arranged?
Bohr Model of the atom:
All of the protons and the neutrons
The 3rd ring can hold up to 18 e-
The 1st ring can hold up to 2 e-
In this class we’ll focus on elements 1-18, so the third energy level will only have up to 8 electrons shown.
The 2nd ring can hold up to 8 e-

36. What does carbon look like?
Mass # = 12 atomic # = 6 p+ = 6 no = 6 e- = 6
6 p and 6 n exist in the nucleus
