3
What are elements? What can you tell me about elements?
4
What are elements? Elements: The fundamental units of matter
5
What are elements? Elements: The fundamental units of matter What do we mean by fundamental?
6
What are elements? Elements: The fundamental units of matter What do we mean by fundamental? Necessary base or core
7
Elements of the Body 96% of the body is made from 4 different elements
8
A Look at Matter
9
Elements of the Body 96% of the body is made from 4 different elements Carbon (C) Oxygen (O) Hydrogen (H) Nitrogen (N)

11
What are atoms?
12
Atoms: The building blocks of elements
13
Atomic Structure What are the different parts of an atom?
14
Atomic Structure Nucleus Protons (p + ) Neutrons (n 0 ) Outside of nucleus Electrons (e - )
15
Atomic Structure of Smallest Atoms

28
How do we identify elements?
29
Atomic number
30
How do we identify elements? Atomic number: equal to the number of protons that the atom contains
31
How do we identify elements? Atomic mass number:
32
How do we identify elements? Atomic mass number: sum of the protons and neutrons
34
Why are atomic masses not in whole numbers? Protons + Neutrons right?
35
Isotopes and Atomic Mass ISOTOPES!
36
Isotopes and Atomic Mass Isotopes: Have the same number of protons Vary in number of neutrons
37
Isotopes and Atomic Mass Close to mass number of most abundant isotope Atomic weight reflects natural isotope variation
38
Isotopes and Atomic Mass https://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/is otopes-and-atomic-mass
39
Electrons and Bonding Energy levels called electron shells Electrons closest to the nucleus are most strongly attracted
40
Electrons and Bonding Bonding - interactions between electrons in the outer shell (valence shell) Full valence shells do not form bonds
41
Electrons and Bonding How to fill the atom’s shells Shell 1 - maximum of 2 electrons Shell 2 - maximum of 8 electrons Shell 3 - maximum of 18 electrons Shell 4 - maximum of 32 electrons Shell 5 - maximum of 50 electrons Shell 6 – maximum of 72 electrons
42
Electrons and Bonding
43
Lewis Dot Structures Diagrams that show the bonding between atoms Represent the valence shell Carbon has 6 protons, 6 elections So…….4 electrons are in the valence shell
44
Lewis Dot Structures
47
Rule of Eights (Octet Rule) Atoms are considered stable when their outermost orbital has 8 electrons The exception to this rule of eights is Shell 1, which can only hold 2 electrons https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzWk- mx_14E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzWk- mx_14E

Radioactivity Radioactivity—process of spontaneous atomic decay What can we use this for?
50
Radioactivity Radioactivity—process of spontaneous atomic decay What can we use this for?
51
Radioactivity Radiometric Dating: Uranium 238 U to 206 Pb, with a half-life of 4.47 billion years 235 U to 207 Pb, with a half-life of 704 million years. Carbon Carbon-14 is a radioactive isotope of carbon, with a half-life of 5,730 years Very short compared to other isotopes
52
Molecules and Compounds Molecule: Two or more like atoms combined chemically Compound: Two or more different atoms combined chemically
53

54
What are chemical reactions? What do you remember?
55
What are chemical reactions? Atoms are united by chemical bonds OR Atoms dissociate from other atoms when chemical bonds are broken
