1. Do Now!
Turn in your HW to the black tray. (On top of the filing cabinet)
1. Using your reference sheet, how many naturally occurring elements do you think there are on the periodic table?
2. How is the periodic table organized?

2. What are atoms?
Atoms are the basic building blocks of elements that make up everyday objects. A desk, the air, even you are made up of atoms!
There are 95 naturally occurring kinds of atoms. Scientists in labs have been able to make about 25 more.

3. The Atom
The smallest particles into which an element can be divided and still show the properties of that element
Atoms are the building blocks of
elements, which are the building blocks of
matter

4. The Parts of an Atom
1. Protons carry a positive charge; found in the nucleus
2. Neutrons carry no charge; found in the nucleus
Protons and neutrons join together in the nucleus; the positively charged center of the atom
3. Electrons carry a negative charge and are found outside the nucleus in the energy levels; smallest of the three parts

5. Cool Facts!
If an electron had the mass of a dime, a proton would have the same mass as a gallon of milk!
Neutrons and protons have almost the same mass.

7. The “Electron Cloud” Outside the nucleus, contains electrons
Made up of energy levels
Each energy level can only hold a maximum number of electrons
3 energy levels are shown
nucleus
1st energy level = 2 e-
2nd energy level = 8 e-
3rd energy level = 18 e-

8. DO NOW! 8-10-15 *Pick up a SLM from front table

9. DO NOW! 8-10-15 *Pick up a SLM from front table
What are the three parts of an atom? Proton, neutron, electron
What is the area outside of the nucleus called? Electron cloud

10. Periodic Table/Element Cards
Element cards make up the periodic table
They show what 1 atom of the element is made up of! 6 C
Carbon
12.0
Atomic number = # of protons
Chemical Symbol
Chemical Name
Atomic Mass
= Protons + Neutrons

11. Neutral Atoms
All atoms are neutral
Neutral means they have no overall charge
How can this be? Because
# P+ = # e- so
The atomic number not only tells you the number of protons, but the number of electrons, as well!

19. Making a 3-D Model When you are assigned an element, sketch the atom.
Each colored bead represents either a proton, neutron, or an electron.
Create your nucleus using beads and fishing line and tie a knot.
Use pipe cleaners as energy levels. On the outermost energy level place an index card that has your name, the element, and the number of p+, n⁰, and e-. Twist the ends together to complete the circle.
Tie all energy levels together with the remaining fishing line from your nucleus.
You may use a paper clip to hang your atom!

31. Atoms vs. Compounds vs. Molecules
Atoms consist of ONE element.
Molecules are composed of two or more atoms.
Compounds consist of two or more atoms of different elements.
