Independent variable
Dependent variable
Control Group
Hypothesis

5. What is an atom?

6. What is an atom?
An atom is the smallest basic unit of matter

7. Structure of an atom

8. Structure of an Atom

9. So, how big is an Atom?

10. So, how big is an atom?!

11. A substance made up of the same type of atom is an_______________.

12. A group of atoms bonded together
What is a Molecule?
A group of atoms bonded together
Bond: A strong force of attraction holding atoms together in a molecule

14. PRACTICE!

15. Using the periodic table

16. How is the periodic table organized?
Periods: (Rows) Shows the number of energy levels
Groups: (Columns) All elements in a group have the same number of valence electrons. Elements in the same group share the same properties – do the same “things”

17. Valence electrons: the number of electrons in the outer shell of an atom

19. How do we represent atoms on paper?
How to make a Bohr model:
1. Draw a circle to represent the nucleus of the atom.

20. How do we represent atoms on paper?
2. Add more circles outside the nucleus to represent energy levels (electron shells).

21. How do we represent atoms on paper?
3. Add electrons (as small dots) to each energy level as allowed until you have the proper number of electrons for a neutral element. (# of electrons should be = to the number of protons).

22. REMEMBER!

23. DO NOW Get out your calendar Get out your atom homework
Draw a picture of an aluminum atom.

24. Stable
Atoms are stable when their outer energy levels are full.

25. Ionic Bonds Ionic bonds form when atoms lose or gain electrons.
Sodium atom (Na)
Chlorine atom (CI)
Sodium ion (Na+)
Chloride ion (CI-)
Na loses an electron to CI
ionic bond
gained electron

26. Covalent Bonds
A covalent bond forms when atoms share a pair of electrons.
covalent bonds
Oxygen atom (O)
Carbon atom (C)
Carbon dioxide (CO2 )

27. Lewis Dot Structures (electron diagrams)
Write the chemical symbol
Draw the valence electrons around the chemical symbol. **There must be at least one electron on each side before doubling up!
