Atomic Structure

The structure of the atom
The Ancient Greeks used to believe that everything was made up of very small particles. I did some experiments in 1808 that proved this and called these particles ATOMS: Dalton ELECTRON – negative, mass nearly nothing PROTON – positive, same mass as neutron (“1”) NEUTRON – neutral, same mass as proton (“1”)

Horizontal rows are called PERIODS
Periodic table Mendeleev The periodic table arranges all the elements in groups according to their properties. Vertical columns are called GROUPS Horizontal rows are called PERIODS
20
The Periodic Table Fact 1: Elements in the same group have the same number of electrons in the outer shell (this correspond to their group number) H He Li Be B C N O F Ne Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar K Ca Fe Ni Cu Zn Br Kr Ag I Xe Pt Au Hg These elements have __ electrons in their outer shells These elements have __ electrons in their outer shell E.g. all group 1 metals have __ electron in their outer shell
21
The Periodic Table Fact 2: As you move down through the periods an extra electron shell is added: E.g. Lithium has 3 electron in the configuration 2,1 H He Li Be B C N O F Ne Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar K Ca Fe Ni Cu Zn Br Kr Ag I Xe Pt Au Hg Sodium has 11 electrons in the configuration 2,8,1 Potassium has 19 electrons in the configuration __,__,__
22
Fact 3: Most of the elements are metals:
The Periodic Table Fact 3: Most of the elements are metals: These elements are metals H He Li Be B C N O F Ne Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar K Ca Fe Ni Cu Zn Br Kr Ag I Xe Pt Au Hg These elements are non-metals This line divides metals from non-metals
23
The Periodic Table Fact 4: (Most important) All of the elements in the same group have similar PROPERTIES. This is how I thought of the periodic table in the first place. This is called PERIODICITY. H He Li Be B C N O F Ne Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar K Ca Fe Ni Cu Zn Br Kr Ag I Xe Pt Au Hg E.g. consider the group 1 metals. They all: Are soft Can be easily cut with a knife React with water
24
Group 1 – The alkali metals
Na K Rb Cs Fr
25
Group 1 – The alkali metals
Some facts… 1) These metals all have ___ electron in their outer shell 2) Reactivity increases as you go _______ the group. This is because the electrons are further away from the _______ every time a _____ is added, so they are given up more easily. 3) They all react with water to form an alkali (hence their name) and __________, e.g: Potassium + water potassium hydroxide + hydrogen 2K(s) H2O(l) KOH(aq) H2(g) Words – down, one, shell, hydrogen, nucleus
26
Group 0 – The Noble gases He Ne Ar Kr Xe Rn
27
Group 0 – The Noble gases Some facts…
1) All of the noble gases have a full outer shell, so they are very _____________ 2) They all have low melting and boiling points 3) They exist as single atoms rather then diatomic molecules Helium is lighter then air and is used in balloons and airships (as well as for talking in a silly voice) Argon is used in light bulbs (because it is so unreactive) and argon , krypton and neon are used in fancy lights
28
Group 7 – The halogens F Cl Br I At
29
Group 7 – The Halogens Some facts… Decreasing reactivity
1) Reactivity DECREASES as you go down the group (This is because the electrons are further away from the nucleus and so any extra electrons aren’t attracted as much). 2) They exist as diatomic molecules (so that they both have a full outer shell): Cl Cl 3) Because of this fluorine and chlorine are liquid at room temperature and bromine is a gas
30
The halogens – some reactions
1) Halogen + metal: Na + Cl - Na Cl + Halogen + metal ionic salt 2) Halogen + non-metal: Cl Cl H H + Halogen + non-metal covalent molecule
31
How shells fill The first electron shell can only hold a maximum of two electrons. The second electron shell can hold a maximum of eight electrons. The third electron shell can also hold a maximum of eight electrons. The fourth electron shell can also hold eight electrons.
32

55
Four factors affecting Reaction Rate
Catalysts Temperature Concentration Surface Area
56
Catalyst A catalyst speeds up or slows down a reaction but does not get used up by the reaction.
57
Temperature If we increase the temperature of a reaction by 100C the rate will double this means the reaction will be complete in half the time.
58
Concentration If we increase the concentration of a reactant the number of particles increase that in turn increases the chance of a collision and initiates a chemical reaction.
59
Surface area The larger the particle size the smaller the relative area the slower the reaction. The smaller the particle size the greater the relative surface area and the faster the reaction.
