Early Models of the Atom
4.1 Early Models of the Atom Democritus believed that atoms were indivisible and indestructible. Democritus’s ideas were limited because they didn’t explain chemical behavior and they lacked experimental support.

Early Models of the Atom
4.1 Early Models of the Atom By using experimental methods, Dalton transformed Democritus’s ideas on atoms into a scientific theory. The result was Dalton’s atomic theory.

Early Models of the Atom
4.1 Early Models of the Atom All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms. According to Dalton’s atomic theory, an element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms. a) Atoms of element A are identical. b) Atoms of element B are identical, but differ from those of element A. c) Atoms of elements A and B can physically mix together. d) Atoms of elements A and B can chemically combine to form a compound.

Early Models of the Atom
4.1 Early Models of the Atom Atoms of different elements can physically mix together or can chemically combine in simple whole-number ratios to form compounds. According to Dalton’s atomic theory, an element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms. a) Atoms of element A are identical. b) Atoms of element B are identical, but differ from those of element A. c) Atoms of elements A and B can physically mix together. d) Atoms of elements A and B can chemically combine to form a compound.

Early Models of the Atom
4.1 Early Models of the Atom Chemical reactions occur when atoms are separated, joined, or rearranged. Atoms of one element are never changed into atoms of another element in a chemical reaction. According to Dalton’s atomic theory, an element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms. a) Atoms of element A are identical. b) Atoms of element B are identical, but differ from those of element A. c) Atoms of elements A and B can physically mix together. d) Atoms of elements A and B can chemically combine to form a compound. Interpreting Diagrams How does a mixture of atoms of different elements differ from a compound? Scientists used a scanning tunneling microscope to generate this image of iron atoms, shown in blue. The radius of this circle of atoms is just 7.13 × 10-9 m.

Subatomic Particles What are three kinds of subatomic particles? 4.2
19
4.2 Subatomic Particles Three kinds of subatomic particles are electrons, protons, and neutrons.
20
4.2 Subatomic Particles Electrons In 1897, the English physicist J. J. Thomson (1856–1940) discovered the electron. Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles.
21
4.2 Subatomic Particles Thomson performed experiments that involved passing electric current through gases at low pressure. The result was a glowing beam, or cathode ray, that traveled from the cathode to the anode.
22
Cathode Ray Tube 4.2 Subatomic Particles
In a cathode-ray tube, electrons travel as a ray from the cathode (-) to the anode (+). A television tube is a specialized type of cathode-ray tube.
23
A cathode ray is deflected by a magnet.
4.2 Subatomic Particles A cathode ray is deflected by a magnet. Thomson examined two ways that a cathode ray can be deflected: a) by using a magnet, and b) by using electrically charged plates. Inferring If a cathode ray is attracted to a positively charged plate, what can you infer about the charge of the particles that make up the cathode ray?
24
A cathode ray is deflected by electrically charged plates.
4.2 Subatomic Particles A cathode ray is deflected by electrically charged plates. In a cathode-ray tube, electrons travel as a ray from the cathode (-) to the anode (+). A television tube is a specialized type of cathode-ray tube.
25
4.2 Subatomic Particles Thomson concluded that a cathode ray is a stream of electrons. Electrons are parts of the atoms of all elements. Thompson built upon the foundation of George Stoney, who proposed the negative particle and named it the electron.
26
Thompson built upon the foundations of:
4.2 Subatomic Particles Thompson built upon the foundations of: George Stoney, who proposed the negative particle and named it the electron. Julius Plucker: who developed the CRT Sir William Crooks: proposed that there were particles in the CT beam.
27
Such positively charged subatomic particles are called protons.
4.2 Subatomic Particles Protons and Neutrons In 1886, Eugen Goldstein (1850–1930) observed a cathode-ray tube and found rays traveling in the direction opposite to that of the cathode rays. He concluded that they were composed of positive particles. Such positively charged subatomic particles are called protons.
28
4.2 Subatomic Particles In 1932, the English physicist James Chadwick (1891–1974) confirmed the existence of yet another subatomic particle: the neutron. Neutrons are subatomic particles with no charge but with a mass nearly equal to that of a proton.
29
4.2 Subatomic Particles Table 4.1 summarizes the properties of electrons, protons, and neutrons.

4.2 The Atomic Nucleus The Atomic Nucleus How can you describe the structure of the nuclear atom?
31
4.2 The Atomic Nucleus J.J. Thompson and others supposed the atom was filled with positively charged material and the electrons were evenly distributed throughout. This model of the atom turned out to be short- lived, however, due to the work of Ernest Rutherford (1871–1937).

Ernest Rutherford’s Portrait

Rutherford’s Gold-Foil Experiment
4.2 The Atomic Nucleus Rutherford’s Gold-Foil Experiment In 1911, Rutherford and his coworkers at the University of Manchester, England, directed a narrow beam of alpha particles at a very thin sheet of gold foil.
34
Rutherford’s Gold-Foil Experiment
4.2 The Atomic Nucleus Rutherford’s Gold-Foil Experiment Rutherford’s gold-foil experiment yielded evidence of the atomic nucleus. a) Rutherford and his coworkers aimed a beam of alpha particles at a sheet of gold foil surrounded by a fluorescent screen. Most of the particles passed through the foil with no deflection at all. A few particles were greatly deflected. b) Rutherford concluded that most of the alpha particles pass through the gold foil because the atom is mostly empty space. The mass and positive charge are concentrated in a small region of the atom. Rutherford called this region the nucleus. Particles that approach the nucleus closely are greatly deflected.
35
Alpha particles scatter from the gold foil.

The Rutherford Atomic Model
4.2 The Atomic Nucleus The Rutherford Atomic Model Rutherford concluded that the atom is mostly empty space. All the positive charge and almost all of the mass are concentrated in a small region called the nucleus. The nucleus is the tiny central core of an atom and is composed of protons and neutrons.

4.3 Isotopes Isotopes How do isotopes of an element differ?
58
4.3 Isotopes Isotopes are atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Because isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons, they also have different mass numbers.
59
4.3 Isotopes Despite these differences, isotopes are chemically alike because they have identical numbers of protons and electrons. Neon-20, neon-21, and neon-22 are three isotopes of neon, a gaseous element used in lighted signs. Comparing and Contrasting How are these isotopes different? How are they similar?
61
Atomic Mass How do you calculate the atomic mass of an element? 4.3
62
4.3 Atomic Mass It is useful to to compare the relative masses of atoms to a standard reference isotope. Carbon- 12 is the standard reference isotope. Cabon-12 has a mass of exactly 12 atomic mass units. An atomic mass unit (amu) is defined as one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.

4.3 Atomic Mass Some Elements and Their Isotopes
64
4.3 Atomic Mass The atomic mass of an element is a weighted average mass of the atoms in a naturally occurring sample of the element. A weighted average mass reflects both the mass and the relative abundance of the isotopes as they occur in nature.
65
Weighted Average Mass of a Chlorine Atom
4.3 Atomic Mass Weighted Average Mass of a Chlorine Atom Chlorine is a reactive element used to disinfect swimming pools. Chlorine occurs as two isotopes: chlorine-35 and chlorine-37. Because there is more chlorine-35 than chlorine-37, the atomic mass of chlorine, amu, is closer to 35 than to 37. Evaluating How does a weighted average differ from an arithmetic mean?
