The Atom and The Periodic Table
2
James Chadwick 1932 James Chadwick British Found an electrically neutral particle which resides in the nucleus and has almost the same mass as the proton. He named this “neutral proton” the neutron.
3
Discovery of the Neutron James Chadwick bombarded beryllium-9 with alpha particles, carbon-12 atoms were formed, and neutrons were emitted. + +
4
Atom: smallest particle of an element that retains the chemical properties of the element. -can be broken down, however they would lose their chemical identity The Atom
5
One of Dalton’s postulates said that, “All atoms of the same element are identical.” (i.e. same mass and properties) IS THIS TRUE?NO!!! Example: Boron is mined in Death Valley, CA. There are two “types” of Boron. Both have 5 p + but one has 5 n o while the other has 6n o. They are exactly alike chemically, but different in mass.
6
ISOTOPES Isotopes: same number of p +, but different number of n o -most elements have 2 stable isotopes -EXCEPTIONS who only have 1 = Al, F, P -Sn has 10!!!! -Refer to an isotope by its mass number (p + + n o ) for example: uranium-238 or 238 U
7
The number of p + = ATOMIC NUMBER represented by “Z” if Z = 5, then the element is Boron In the atom, what is the same as the number of p + ? WHY? p + = e - Atoms are electrically neutral. Hence, the number of p + determines the identity of the element and the number of n o determines the isotope of the element. Atomic Number (Z) Nucleus - Proton (+1) Neutrons (0) If two elements have the same atomic number they are the same element. If two elements have different atomic numbers they are different.
8
Dalton’s postulate now reads: “All atoms of an element contain the same number of p + but can contain different numbers of n o.” A particular type of atom is called a NUCLIDE (another name for isotope). Protium, Deuterium, and Tritium are all nuclides of hydrogen. Particles that make up the nucleus are called NUCLEONS. The proton and neutron are nucleons.
9
# protons + # neutrons mass number The total number of nucleons = p + + n o = mass number (“M”) Isotopic notation: X M Z Isotopic Notation X = chemical symbol M = mass # Z = atomic #

Metals lose electrons to form positive ions (cations): Li ---> Li + + e - 3 p + 3 p + 3 e - 2 e - 4 n 0 4 n 0 Nucleus - Proton (+1) Neutrons (0) If # of protons > # of electrons it has a positive charge and we call it a cation.
18
Nonmetals gain electrons to form negative ions (anions): F + e - ---> F - 9 p + 9 p + 9 e - 10 e - 10 n 0 10 n 0 Nucleus - Proton (+1) Neutrons (0) If # of protons < # of electrons it has a negative charge and we call it an anion.

The p + and n o are essentially equal in mass. As you can see, the electron has very little mass when compared to both the proton and the neutron. 99.95% of an atom’s mass is found in the nucleus. Protons are over 1800 times larger than electrons. So, chemists say electrons have no mass. This is not exactly true, it’s more like they have negligible mass. Atomic Mass

22
The mass of atoms is measured in amu or (u). Amu = 1/12 the mass of the carbon-12 nuclide 1 u = 1.66054 x 10 -24 g Carbon-12 is the standard. One C-12 atom has a mass of 12 u. The mass of the other elements is relative to this mass. carbon atom (12 amu) (1 amu)
23
For example….Methane For carbon 1 in approximately 90 atoms are carbon-13 The rest are carbon-12 the isotope that is 98.9% abundant. So, for approximately 90 methane molecules…1 carbon is carbon-13

A mass spectrometer
27
Mass Spectrometry A mass spectrometer is a device that separates positive gaseous ions according to their mass-to- charge ratios. If a stream of positive ions having equal velocities is brought into a magnetic field: All the ions are deflected from their straight line paths into circular paths The lightest ions are deflected the most making a tighter circle Conversely, the heaviest ions are deflected the least A record of the separation of ions is called a mass spectrum.

Mass spectrums reflect the abundance of naturally occurring isotopes. Hydrogen Carbon Nitrogen Oxygen Sulfur Chlorine Bromine 1 H = 99.985% 2 H = 0.015% 12 C = 98.90% 13 C = 1.10% 14 N = 99.63% 15 N = 0.37% 16 O = 99.762% 17 O = 0.038% 18 O = 0.200% 32 S = 95.02% 33 S = 0.75% 34 S = 4.21% 36 S = 0.02% 35 Cl = 75.77% 37 Cl = 24.23% 79 Br = 50.69% 81 Br = 49.31% Natural Abundance of Common Elements
33
Atomic Mass How heavy is an atom of oxygen? There are different kinds of oxygen atoms. More concerned with average atomic mass. Based on abundance of each element in nature. Don’t use grams because the numbers would be too small
34
Abundance = Percent (% ) = (part/whole) = mass individual /mass whole Average = Abundance 1 (mass 1 ) + Abundance 2 (mass 2 ) + etc AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS
35
Steps: Multiply the mass of each isotope by its Abundance. Add up all of the products from step 1.
