Ch 2 ATOMS, MOLECULES, AND IONS
2
2.1 Atomic Theory of Matter Democritus- atomos- tiny indivisible particles Dalton- Atomic Theory Element composed of atoms Atoms in element are identical Chemical reactions involve reorganizations of atoms. Atoms are not changed in a chemical reaction. Compounds are formed when atoms of more than 1 element combine, a given cmpd always has the same relative numbers and kinds of atoms
3
Chemical Laws Dalton used to build postulates Law of Constant Composition- a given compound always contains the same proportions of elements by mass Law of Conservation of Matter- matter is netiher created nor destroyed. Law of Multiple Proportions- when two elements form more than one compound, the different masses of one element that are combined with the same mass of the other element are in a ratio of small whole numbers. Ex-CO- 1.33 g of oxygen to 1 g of carbon CO 2 - 2.66 g of oxygen to 1 g of carbon 2.66 g : 1.33 g = 2:1 ratio
4
Discovery of Atomic Structure JJ Thompson and the Electron Experiments w/ CRT Determined charge to mass ratio of e- “Plum Pudding Model” Robert Millikan and the Oil-Drop Determined the charge of an e- Using Thompson’s charge/ mass ratio, he determined mass of e- (9.1 x 10- 28 g)
5
Radioactivity- Becquerel, Curie, Rutherford Rays- high energy light Particles- high speed e- Particles- He nucleus Nuclear Atom and Rutherford’s Foil Experiment Positively charged center Disproved Thompson’s model
6
2.3 Modern Atomic Structure Nucleus- small size, high density (pea w/ a mass of 250 million tons) Protons- positive Neutrons- neutral Electrons Negative Reactivity of elements Responsible for most of atom’s volume
7
Atomic number # of protons Element’s identity Mass number Protons + neutrons Isotopes Same proton #, different neutron # Ex- carbon-12, carbon-14
8
2.4 Atomic Weights Average atomic mass Accounts for abundancies of all isotopes Ex- Carbon 98.93% 12 C and 1.07% 13 C (0.9893)(12 amu) + (0.0107)(13.00335 amu) = 12.01 amu
9
2.5 The Periodic Table Organization Horizontal row- period Same outer energy level Vertical column- group or family Same # of valence electrons, similar properties Group 1A- alkali metals Group 2A- alkaline earth metals Group 7A- halogens Group 8A- noble gases Metals, nonmetals, metalloids
10
2.6 Molecules and Molecular Compounds Covalent bonds Between 2+ nonmetals 7 Diatomic molecules- 2 atoms of same element “Mr. BrINClHOF” Molecular formulas vs empirical formulas Molecular- actual # and types of atoms Ex- hydrogen peroxide- H 2 O 2, glucose- C 6 H 12 O 6 Empirical- relative # and types of atoms, reduced to lowest whole # ratios Ex- hydrogen peroxide- HO, glucose- CH 2 O
11
3 ways to view molecules Ball and Stick Model Structural Formula Space Filling Model
12
2.7 Ions and Ionic Compounds Cation- positive Loss of e- Metals (Group 1A, 2A, Al, H) Anion- negative Gain of e- Nonmetals (Group 6A, 7A, N, H) Polyatomic ions Group of covalently bonded atoms with a net + or - charge
13
Attraction between cations and anions form ionic compounds Typically btwn metal and nonmetal Electrically neutral Conduct electricity Usually solid Empirical formulas Use “criss-cross” method- charge of one ion (ignore the sign) becomes the subscript of the other one (reduce if needed!)
14
2.8 Naming Inorganic Compounds Ionic Positive ion first, negative second (-ide suffix) Memorize polyatomics! Find “-ate” ion chlorate = ClO 3 - “ite” is 1 less O than “ate” chlorite = ClO 2 - Prefix “per” is 1 more O than “ate” perchlorate = ClO 4 - Prefix “hypo” is 1 less O than “ite” hypochlorite = ClO - Metals with more than one oxidation state (transition metals) must have a romal numeral to indiate the oxidation state Ex- Fe +3 = iron (III)
15
Binary covalent Must contain 2 elements, BOTH nonmetals First element Full name Prefix ONLY if more than 1 Second element Named as if it were an anion (-ide suffix) ALWAYS gets a prefix
16
Acids Binary acids (HX) “hydro” + root of second element + “ic” Ex- H 2 Shydrosulfuric acid Oxyacids Acid contains anion that ends in “ate” Root of anion name + “ic” HNO 3 nitric acid Acid contains anion that ends in “ite” Root of anion name + “ous” HNO 2 nitrous acid
17
2.9 Simple Organics Hydrocarbons- only contain C and H Alkanes Class of hydrocarbons where each C bonded to 4 other atoms Methane (CH 4 ), ethane (C 2 H 6 ), propane (C 3 H 8 ) Compounds with 5+ carbons use prefix plus –ane ending Ex- C 8 H 18 octane Alcohols H is replaced with an –OH group Use alkane root with –ol suffix Methanol, ethanol, propanol When 3+ C, need to specify which carbon has –OH with a # 1 represents outer C, 2 inner, etc…. 1-propanol, 2-propanol
