1
TOPICS ON THE TEST History of Atomic Theory –Scientists –Their contribution Atomic Structure –Subatomic Particles –Atomic Charts –Average Atomic Mass Problems
2
ANCIENT TIMES Greeks Aristotle –four element theory –Matter is continuous. Democritus –empty space and atoms Alchemists –first to experiment –invented glassware
3
1600’S AND 1700’S Boyle –first to define an element Lavoisier –accurate experiments –wrote first chemistry book Priestly –isolated oxygen –carbonated water
4
1800’s Dalton –“Father of the Atomic Theory” –Four Point Theory Elements are made of atoms. Atoms of the same element are identical. Law of Multiple Proportions Chemical Reaction - rearrangement of atoms
5
1800’s Gay-Lussac –Law of Combining Volumes Avogadro –Equal volumes of gas have equal number of particles at same temp. and pressure. Thomson –Discovered the electron
6
1900’s Millikan –Charge of an electron Bohr –Electrons orbit around the nucleus like planets orbit the sun. Rutherford –Discovered the nucleus
7
1900’s Chadwick –Discovered the neutron
8
ATOMIC STRUCTURE Subatomic Particles –protons, neutrons, and electrons –location, charge, symbol, mass
9
ATOMIC CHARTS Be able to find: –name of element –symbol of element –atomic number –mass number –number of protons –number of neutrons –number of electrons
10
AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS Example:
