2. 1. Fire, air, water and earth 5 THEORIES OF MATTER 2. Tiny, solid particles called atoms 3. Lumps of positively charged material with negative electrons all through it 5. A positive nucleus with electrons orbiting around it 3. A positive nucleus with negative electrons moving around it

3. WHAT IS MATTER MADE OF? Empedocles was a Greek philosopher and scientist He said that matter is made of:

4. Why might that make sense to people who knew nothing about atoms?

5. SO WHAT IS MATTER MADE OF? John Dalton, who lived in the early 1800s, said: 1. Matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms 2. Atoms can’t be created, or destroyed 3. All atoms of the same element are identical and are different from atoms of all other elements 4. Different elements link together, in defined whole number ratios, to make compounds Dalton’s atom Atoms are the smallest particles and don’t have distinct parts

6. 1. Matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms John Dalton, who lived in the early 1800s, said: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xSQlwWGT8M&feature=fvwrel Introduction to the Atom @ http://www.khanacademy.org/

7. Dalton also said: 2. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed

8. Hydrogen Sodium LithiumUraniumGold 3. All Elements have Unique Atoms Dalton also said:

9. 2.

10. Dalton also said: 4. Elements combine in defined, whole number ratios H 2 O – water vs. not H 2 O – water hydrogen oxygen hydrogen oxygen hydrogen oxygen ¾ oxygen hydrogen ½ hydrogen hydrogen oxygen ½ hydrogen

11. Dalton also said: 3.

12. Joseph John Thomson in 1897: 1.Discovered that atoms have negatively charged particles in them 2.Concluded that since atoms are neutral they must also contain positive particles to balance the negatively charged particles 3.Proposed that the atom is a lump of positively charged material with negative electrons all through it your textbook’s version Thomson’s atom positive material negative electrons Atoms aren’t the smallest particles and do have distinct parts; a positive body and electrons

13. Production of Cathode Rays To Vacuum Pump Anode Green Glow Air at Very Low Pressure Cathode Discharge Tube How Thomson Found Negative Particles 1.He used a cathode ray tube like these ones 2.The tubes contain small amounts of gas 3.He used electricity to run a current through the gas in the tube 4.The gas glowed 5.The glow started from the negative end and went to the positive end 6.Opposites attract so if the glow moved towards the positive end that meant it must have been negative 7.That meant some kind of negative things from the atoms were moving 8.We now call these particles electrons High voltage Generator

16. Ernest Rutherford’s 1907 study of atomic structure: 1.He fired very tiny, fast, positive alpha particles at a very thin sheet of gold foil 2.He expected the alpha particles to just pass straight through the spaces between the particles in the foil 3.Some passed straight through, some veered off on angles, and some bounced back 4.He concluded that atoms must have a positive core that the alpha particles were hitting 5.He named this core the nucleus and proposed that the electrons revolved around the nucleus Rutherford’s atom positive nucleus revolving electrons Atoms aren’t the smallest particles and do have distinct parts; a positive nucleus and electrons

20. Niels Bohr’s Question 1.Positive and negative charges are attracted to each other 2.Atoms contain positive protons and negative electrons 3.The electrons and protons in an atom are not drawn in towards each other Q. Why don’t atoms collapse?

21. Why don’t atoms collapse?

22. Niels Bohr in 1912 1.Something must be keeping the electrons from collapsing into the nucleus 2.He determined that electrons only move in defined orbitals around the nucleus 3.For electrons to move between orbitals they need specific amounts of energy 4.He called these bundles of energy quanta Bohr-Rutherford atom Atoms have distinct parts; a positive nucleus and electrons that move around it in orbitals
