1 Intro to Chemistry

2 Atomic Structure  Nucleus- center of an atom -contains protons (which are positive) -contains neutrons (which are neutral) Ex- Sodium:

3 Bohr Model of Atom

4 Atomic Structure Outside the Nucleus:  Electrons (which are negative) surround the nucleus in energy levels 1 st energy level = holds 2e 2 nd energy level = holds 8e 3 rd energy level = SAVE 4 th energy level = FOR CHEMISTRY!!

7 An atom is defined by the number of PROTONS IT HAS!!!

8 Chemistry tidbits  Chemical Symbol- letter representing the atom (sometimes from Latin)

9 Chemistry tidbits  Atomic number = number of protons  Mass number = # protons + # neutrons  Don’t bother to weigh the air inside the box  So how can you calculate NEUTRONS??

10 Calculating Neutrons is a simple algebraic problem…  Mass Number = protons + neutrons  Atomic Number = protons  Write the equation…  Mass Number= Atomic Number + neutrons  #Neutrons = (mass number – atomic number)

11 Chemistry tidbits  Usually can assume:  # protons = # electrons  ONLY true for NEUTRAL ATOMS!

12 And remember…  Don’t mess with the  PROTONS!!!

13 So what CAN we “mess with?”  Neutrons…  Changes the MASS  Get an ISOTOPE  Electrons…  Changes the CHARGE  Get an ION

14 Atomic Mass Mystery…  Look at the atomic mass for Oxygen. What does it say (exactly?)  15.9999  What is the atomic mass?  P + N  So what the heck!?!?!  Average of the actual isotopes on Earth!!!

15 Isotopes  Isotopes are different atoms of the same element that contain the same number of protons but different number of neutrons.  Examples  Cl-35 vs. Cl-37 17P 17P 18N 20N

16 How to write isotopes…  Mass/Hyphen Notation:  Especially important for a form of the isotope that is NOT the “usual”  Write the symbol, a dash, and the mass # for that isotope  Ex’s  C-14  C-12

17 How to write isotopes…  Nuclear Symbol Notation  Includes the symbol, atomic #, and the mass # for that isotope  Ex’s 14 6 C

18 What else CAN we “mess with?”  Neutrons…  Get an ISOTOPE  Electrons…  Get an ION

19 Periodic Table tidbits  Period table organization – organized by increasing atomic number  Split into metals (left side of stair step line) and nonmetals (right side of stair step line)  Metalloids- surround the stairstep line  Groups (families) – vertical columns (#1-18)  Periods – horizontal rows (#1-7)

20 Intro to Periodic Table

22 Periodic Table tidbits  Period table organization – organized by increasing atomic number  Split into metals (left side of stair step line) and nonmetals (right side of stair step line)  ONE EXCEPTION  Hydrogen!  vertical columns (#1-18)  Groups  horizontal rows (#1-7)  Periods

25 Metals-left side of table  Exist as solids at room temperature  Shiny  Good conductors of heat & electricity  Malleable (can be bent)

26 Nonmetals-right side of table  Most are gases at room temperature  Some are brittle solids- carbon, sulfur, iodine, & phosphorus  Most do not conduct heat & electricity well

27 Metalloids- next to zigzag line b/w metals & nonmetals  Properties fall between neighbors on both sides  Most are silvery in appearance, brittle, poor conductors of heat & electricty

28 Transition Metals  Metals- which are less reactive than the alkali or alkaline earth metals  Often exist as oxide or sulfide ores ex. Iron sulfide or iron oxide  You’ll learn more in chemistry about these elements

29 Major Groups on periodic table  Alkali metals- group 1- most reactive  Alkaline earth metals- group 2  Transition metals- groups 3-12  Metalloids- surround stairstep line  Halogens- group 17  Noble gases-group 18 (inert gases-stable; nonreactive)  Periodic table Periodic table

30 Lewis Dot Structures  Lewis dot diagrams- display the number of valence electrons (outermost electrons) around the element symbol  Used to show how atoms of different elements bond and form compounds  Hint- use group number to find valence electrons

31 Electron configurations 
