Chemistry
2
Atomic Number Mass Number Isotopes Atomic mass unit Atomic mass
3
Elements are diff because they contain diff #’s of protons ATOMIC NUMBER: # of protons in the nucleus of an atom of that element
4
Atomic # of H is 1 Every hydrogen atom has 1 proton Number of neutrons can vary, but H always has 1 proton Atomic number of gold (Au)? Atomic number
5
In a neutrally charged atom of an element, the # of p + = e - How many electrons in neutral oxygen (O)? Neutral Sodium (Na)? Complete practice problems 15 and 16 on page 111 in your notes
6
Most of mass of an atom found in nucleus (p + and n 0 ) MASS NUMBER: The total number of p + and n 0
7
To determine the number of n 0 : # of n 0 = mass number – atomic number How many neutrons in Magnesium (Mg) if the mass number is 24? 2 Shorthand ways of representing an element Mass number
8
ISOTOPES: Atoms that have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons Different number of neutrons means diff mass number 3 isotopes of hydrogen Hydrogen - 1 (Protium)H Hydrogen - 2 (Deuterium)H Hydrogen - 3 (Tritium)H
9
All versions of an element are chemically alike
10
Mass of a proton or neutron = 1.67 x 10 -24 g Small size impractical to work with ATOMIC MASS UNIT (AMU): One-twelfth the mass of a carbon-12 atom Carbon -12 has 6 p + and 6 n 0 1 p + or 1 n 0 has a mass of 1 amu
11
Masses of elements not whole numbers Isotopes of an element are found in different abundance Page 114 Most hydrogen is hydrogen-1
12
ATOMIC MASS: A weighted, average mass of the atoms in a naturally occurring sample of the element Reflects both mass and relative abundance of the isotopes Similar to how your grades are calculated in my class To determine the atomic mass of an element, multiply the mass of each isotope by it’s natural abundance, expressed as a decimal, and then add the products
13
Go to Distinguishing Among Atoms Addition
14
Do practice problems 23 and 24 on page 117 in your notes
15
Pg 122 – 123 Problems 34, 39 - 41, 44, 46-50, 52 - 55, 65 Don’t write the questions Write this problem down: There are two main isotopes of indium: indium – 114 with an abundance of 85.5%, indium - 115 with an abundance of 9.50%, and indium – 116 with an abundance of 5.00%. What is the atomic mass of indium?
