Atomic Theory of Matter
Atoms – from the Greek word atomos meaning indivisible John Dalton developed the Modern theory of the atom In an attempt to explain how and why elements would combine with one another in fixed ratios and sometimes also in multiples of those ratios, Dalton formulated his atomic theory
3
elements consisted of tiny particles called atoms
all atoms of an element were identical and that in particular they had the same mass compounds consisted of atoms of different elements combined. Compounds have constant composition because they contain a fixed ratio of atoms chemical reactions involved the rearrangement of combinations of those atoms

Discovery of Atomic Structure
In 1897 the British physicist Joseph John (J. J.) Thomson (1856–1940) discovered the electron in a series of experiments He studied nature of electric discharge in a high-vacuum cathode-ray tube Thomson interpreted the deflection of the rays by electrically charged plates and magnets as evidence of "bodies much smaller than atoms" He calculated the charge-to-mass ratio.

In 1906, Millikan began experiments at the University of Chicago to attempt to measure individual electron charge use of oil drops

Millikan showed that the charge of the droplets were always a whole number multiple of 1.592 x10-19C
The accepted value is 1.602x10-19C Millikan could now calculate the mass of an electron with Thomson’s ratio of charge to mass m = 9.10 X 10-28 g

17
Modern view of the atomic structure
The atom consists of protons (p+), electrons(e-), and neutrons(no). Atoms are electrically neutral (#p+ = #e-) An atom is defined by #p+ = Z = atomic number As single atom is measured in amu ( 1 amu = x g) An atomic ion is #p+ ≠ #e- resulting in a net nonzero charge on the species
18
Isotope Atoms which have the same Z (same # p+) but a different A (different # n0) Most elements have isotopes that occur in nature in precise proportions (fractional abundances, %).
19
Naturally occurring C: 98.892 % 12C + 1.108 % 13C.
Atomic Weights Average Atomic Masses Relative atomic mass: average masses of isotopes: Naturally occurring C: % 12C % 13C. Average mass of C: ( )(12 amu) + (0.0108)( ) = amu. Atomic weight (AW) is also known as average atomic mass (atomic weight). Atomic weights are listed on the periodic table. Chapter 2

Names and Formulas for Acids
The names of acids are related to the names of anions: -ide becomes hydro-….-ic acid; -ate becomes -ic acid; -ite becomes -ous acid.

Some Simple Organic Compounds
Alkanes Organic chemistry: the chemistry of carbon compounds. Alkanes contain only C and H and are called hydrocarbons. The names of alkanes all end in the suffix –ane. Alkanes are named according to the number of C atoms in their backbone chain: Methane has one C atom (CH4) Ethane has two C atoms (CH3CH3) Propane has three C atoms (CH3CH2CH3)
29
Some Derivatives of Alkanes
Replace H atoms in alkanes with heteroatoms (atoms other than C or H), we have introduced a functional group into the alkane Replace H with –OH, then we form an alcohol. Alcohols are also named by the number of C atoms. Consider propanol: there are two places for the OH: on an end C or the middle C. When the OH is located on the end C, we call the substance 1-propanol When the OH is on the middle C, we have 2-propanol.
30
Replace a single bonds in an alkane with one or more double bonds, then we form alkenes.
Forming a double bond between C and O, forms carboxylic acids, ketones, aldehydes, and esters Any organic molecule with double or triple bonds is called unsaturated.
