The Nature of Matter Chapter 2
2
Atoms Smallest particle of an element Structure of the atom Nucleus: Protons (+) Neutrons (no charge) Orbital cloud: Electrons (-) Move rapidly can be gained or lost Outer levels have a higher energy
3
Atoms Duet rule: the closest orbital around the nucleus can hold 2 electrons Octet rule: the cloud orbitals can hold up to 8 electrons This causes attraction between atoms
4
Atoms Neon atom 10 protons 10 neutron 10 electrons Duet Rule Octet Rule Stable element
5
Atoms Charge of the atom Sum of protons and electrons If number of protons = number of electrons no electrical charge
6
Atoms Ion: charged particle lose or gain electron Cl- (gained 1 electron) Na+ (lost 1 electron) Ca 2+ (lost 2 electrons)
7
Elements Element Substance that cannot be chemically broken down further Consists of entirely one atom
8
Elements Mass of the atom Sum of protons and neutrons Atomic # Number of protons
9
Isotopes Isotopes Amount of protons ≠ number of neutrons Can be more or less Atomic mass is average masses of element’s isotopes
10
Isotopes Radioactive isotopes Unstable nucleus and break down at a known rate over time Give off radiation which may be dangerous Many uses in science Tracers to follow movement within organisms Ex: Carbon-14 can be used to detect the age of ancient bones
11
Chemical Compounds Compound Substance that can be broken down to elements (2 or more elements) 97% of all compounds contain only 6 elements C-H-O-N-P-S C-H-O-N = 64%
12
Chemical Bonds Atoms in compounds are held together by various types of bonding Which part of the atom is involved in bond formation? Bonds form by using valence electrons What types of bonds are there? Ionic and covalent
13
Ionic Bond Ionic bond Electrons are transferred Attraction between oppositely charged ions Ex: Na transfers e- to Cl Na+Cl- Become charged particles by gaining or losing electrons
15
Ionic Bond http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTx_DWboEVs
16
Covalent Bonds Covalent bond Pairs of electrons in outer shell shared by both atoms Can be single (2 electrons) or double (4 electrons)
18
Covalent Bond http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wpDicW_MQQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1wpDicW_MQQ
19
States of Matter Solid Maintains fixed volume and shape Atoms are more likely linked to each other Liquid Maintains a fixed volume Particles move more frequently Ability to flow and change into any shape Gas Particles move rapidly Fill volume of container occupied

22
Chemical Reactions One or more substances is made or broken down Reactants On the left side of an equation Starting substance(s) Products On the right side of an equation Ending substance(s) CO 2 + H 2 o H 2 CO 2
23
Activation Energy Energy needed in order for a reaction to occur Substances known as catalysts can lower the activation energy to make a reaction start faster Living things have catalysts are called enzymes that speed up reactions
24
Demonstration Are the pieces of paper without water more attracted to each other? Why are the pieces of paper with water easier to stick together? What is holding the papers together? Water is a polar molecule Partial negative pole and partial positive side
25
Polarity An uneven distribution of charges within a molecule In a water molecule the oxygen atom has a greater ability to attract electrons to it, which pulls the hydrogen atoms to one side
26
Hydrogen bonding Due to partial positive and partial negative poles on the water molecule, other water molecules are attracted to each causing a hydrogen bond Not as strong as covalent or ionic bonding
27
Hydrogen Bond http://programs.northlandcollege.edu/biology/Biology1111/a nimations/hydrogenbonds.html http://programs.northlandcollege.edu/biology/Biology1111/a nimations/hydrogenbonds.html What are the other unique properties of water?
28
Cohesion: The ability for water to be attracted to itself (due to Hydrogen bonding)
29
Cohesion – Surface Tension
30
Adhesion - The ability for water to be attracted to other substances
31
Adhesion - Capillary Action How water moves up plants Plant tubes (xylem) are made of cellulose which is polar Water molecules are attracted to the sides of thin tubes of xylem What do you think will happen to the daisies?
32
Capillary Action How water moves up plants Water molecules are attracted to the sides of thin tubes plant walls This is also why water moves up a straw without you doing anything!
33
Activity! Drops of water on a penny What properties of water are shown in this experiment?
34
pH pH is the concentration of Hydrogen ions in a solution It is the “potential of Hydrogen”
36
Strong Acid and Base HCl – hydrochloric acid Strong acid Solution would have a HIGH concentration of H+ ions H+ loses electron to Cl- NaOH – sodium hydroxide Strong base Solution would have a HIGH concentration of OH- ions Na+ loses electron to OH-
37
Buffers Weak acids/bases that react with strong acids or bases to have a gradual shift in the pH scale Ex: Milk calming stomach acid
38
Why is water neutral? The molecule of H 2 O separates into H3O and OH- H+ loses electron to OH- Equal parts of each ion H 2 O has a neutral pH of 7
39
