Atoms and Atomic Structure
2
Law of Conservation of Mass Lavoisier (1743-1794) In a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed. P. 57 Click on picture for movie

6
Law of Definite Proportions Proost (1754-1826) Different samples of any pure compound contain the same elements in the same proportions by mass. P. 58
7
Mass Ratio of Cu:O:C in copper carbonate Cu:O:C = 53:40:10 = 5.3 : 4: 1 Regardless of where the copper carbonate is found
8
Mass Ratio of Cu:O:C in copper carbonate Cu:O:C = 53:40:10 = 5.3 : 4: 1 If a sample of copper carbonate contains 20 g of carbon how many g of Cu will it contain?
9
Mass Ratio of Cu:O:C in copper carbonate Cu:O:C = 53:40:10 = 5.3 : 4: 1 If a sample of copper carbonate contains 20 g of carbon how many g of Cu will it contain? Cu / C = 5.3g / 1g = x / 20g
10
Mass Ratio of Cu:O:C in copper carbonate Cu:O:C = 53:40:10 = 5.3 : 4: 1 If a sample of copper carbonate contains 20 g of carbon how many g of Cu will it contain? (5.3g / 1g)20g = x
11
Mass Ratio of Cu:O:C in copper carbonate Cu:O:C = 53:40:10 = 5.3 : 4: 1 If a sample of copper carbonate contains 20 g of carbon how many g of Cu will it contain? 106 g = x
12
Law of Multiple Proportions (John Dalton) The masses of one element that can combine chemically with a fixed mass of another element are in a ratio of small whole numbers. 2C+O 2 2CO Carbon monoxide C+O 2 CO 2 Carbon dioxide P. 59 24 g32 g 12 g32 g 2:1
13
The idea of “whole numbers” suggests the presence of “individual” particle ATOMS !
14
Dalton’s Atomic Theory John Dalton (1766-1844) proposed an atomic theory 1.matter is composed, indivisible particles (atoms). 2.all atoms of a particular element are identical 3.different elements have different atoms 4.atoms combine in certain whole-number ratios 5.In a chemical reaction, atoms are merely rearranged to form new compounds; they are not created, destroyed, or changed into atoms of any other elements. P. 56-57
15
OK! Matter is made of ATOMS But what are ATOMS? What are ATOMS themselves made of?
16
Cathode–Ray Tube P. 61
17
J.J. Thompson (1856-1940)
18
Cathode Rays - JJ Thompson P. 62
19
Mass of an electron Experiments performed by Thompson together with those of Robert Millikan were able to show that an electron has a mass of 9.1 x 10 -28 g The mass of one atom of the lightest element, hydrogen, is 1.7 x 10 -24 g An electron is approx 1/2000th the mass of a H atom!
20
So the electron appears to be an insignificant part of the atom - from a mass point of view! How are electrons arranged inside an atom?
21
Thompson’s Plum Pudding Model of the Atom electron Diffuse positive charge
22
Ernest Rutherford (1871-1937)
23
Nucleus of the Atom Rutherford (1871-1937) P. 64 Click on picture for movie
25
Nucleus of the Atom Continued P. 64
26
Nucleus of the Atom Continued (Rutherford) At the center of the atom is a very dense nucleus that accounts for almost all the mass of the atom and contains all the positive charge. He named these positive particles protons. Protons have a relative mass of 1 and a charge of +1. P. 64
27
Nucleus of the Atom Chadwick (1891-1974) When atoms of beryllium were bombarded with alpha particles, new uncharged particles with mass identical to protons were emitted. These uncharged particles were called neutrons. Neutrons have a relative mass of 1 and a charge of zero. P. 64-65
28
Characteristics of the Three Basic Subatomic Particles P. 65
30
Arrangement of Subatomic Particles in the Atom P. 66
32
Atoms are mainly EMPTY SPACE !
33
And so are ALL OF US !
34
Our first direct look at the atomic world Get me out of here!

38
Isotopes Atoms of an element that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. A X X = symbol of element Z A = mass number Z = atomic number The isotopes of sulfur are written: 32 S 33 S 34 S 36 S 16161616
39
Isotopes Continued Which of the following represent isotopes of the same element? Which element? 234 X 234 X 235 X 238 X 92 93 92 92
40
Answer: 234 U 234 Np 235 U 238 U 92 93 92 92 234 Np is not an isotope of Uranium. 93
41
Isotopes of Carbon 12 C 13 C 14 C 6 6 6
42
12 C 13 C 14 C 6 6 6 12 - 6 = 6 neutrons 13 - 6 = 7 neutrons 14 - 6 = 8 neutrons Radioactive Isotopes of Carbon
43
Carbon-14 Dating Used to date archeological artifacts up to 60000 years old measures amount of radioactive 14 C left in a sample Amount of 14 C decreases with time will be discussed in detail in Ch 5
44
Isotopic Fingerprinting The ratio of stable isotopes (e.g. 13 C/ 12 C) in a substance will vary slightly depending on the origin of the substance for example, petroleum samples from different parts of the world will have different 13 C/ 12 C ratios How could such information be useful?
45
Time for some nuclear chemistry …let’s begin Ch 5
46
Periodic Table Mendeleev (1834-1907) Atoms arranged by ascending atomic number Horizontal rows called periods Vertical columns called groups Elements within a group have similar chemical properties
47
The Periodic Table
48
Properties of Alkali Metals and Halogens
49
Metals Metals have distinctive properties Good conductors of heat and electricity Shiny appearance Ductile and malleable Are light purple in periodic table that is on the inside cover of the book
50
Nonmetals Do not conduct heat or electricity Not ductile or malleable Many exist as gases Are green in periodic table that is on the inside cover of the book
51
Semimetals Have properties that lie between those of metals and nonmetals Are gold yellow in the periodic table that is on the inside cover of the book
