The Structure of an Atom Chapter 3
3
Early Theories Greek Philosophers –4 Elements Air Fire Wind Water –Democritus Atoms make up matter –Aristotle Refuted Democritus and atom’s existence forgotten
4
Deomcritus Atoms Differences in atoms
5
Dalton’s Atomic Theory All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. All atoms of a given element are identical. Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particles, or distroyed. Different atoms combine in simple whole number ratios to form compounds. In a chemical reaction, atoms are separated, combined or rearranged.

Dalton’s Atomic Theory All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. All atoms of a given element are identical. Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particles, or destroyed. (This part proven wrong) Different atoms combine in simple whole number ratios to form compounds. In a chemical reaction, atoms are separated, combined or rearranged.

8
Subatomic Particles and the Atom Cathode ray tube –Stream of charged particles (electrons). –See pg 60 for picture J. J. Thompson –Used cathode ray tube to prove existence of electron. –Proposed “Plum Pudding Model”

Subatomic Particles and the Atom Plum Pudding J. J. Thompson Plum Pudding Model

Deomcritus Atoms Differences in atoms Dalton Atoms Sameness Created/destroyed Combination Rearragement Thompson Atoms composed of electrons
11
Ernest Rutherford Gold Foil experiment –Used to prove the existence of a positively charged core (Nucleus) The results were “like firing a large artillery shell at a sheet of paper and having the shell come back and hit you!”

Deomcritus Atoms Differences in atoms Dalton Atoms Sameness Created/destroyed Combination Rearragement Thompson Atoms composed of electrons Rutherford Positively Charged Nucleus
14
Subatomic Particles and the Atom Chadwick –Worked with Rutherford. –Noted there was energy in the nucleus, but wasn’t the protons. –Concluded that neutral particles must aslo exist in nucleus. Mosley –Assigned atomic number to atoms Bohr –Designed “Bohr Model” of the atom.

16
Subatomic Particles and the Atom Three main particles: (see chart on pg 97) –Proton Positive In nucleus –Neutrons Neutral In nucleus –Electrons Negative Orbiting the nucleus (not inside)
17
Atomic Differences Atomic Number –Distinguishes one atom from another. –= #p + (& #e - for a neutral atom) Isotopes –Differ in mass number Mass # = #p + + #n o –Change is in # n o Atomic Mass Unit –Defined as 1/12 mass of a Carbon-12 atom p + = 1 amu n o = 1 amu e - = 0 amu
18
Atomic Differences Mass on the periodic table is based on the percent abundance of each isotope of that element. Therefore it is a decimal. Ex: Chlorine exist naturally as Cl-37 and Cl-35. Cl-37 is about 75% and Cl-35 is about 25%. So, (37 X.75) + (35 X.25) = 36.5 amu. See Ex problem on pg 103 for more ideas.
