1. Models of Atom 1) The concept of atom was born in Greece about 450 BC 2) Democritus, Greek scientist proposed that matter and motion are discontinuous and could not be infinitely divided. At some point a fundamental indivisible particle would emerge and he called it as Atomos (atom). 3) In 350 B.C., Aristotle argued that matter and motion are continuous. He believed that the smallest particle can be further divided. His view prevailed for almost 21 centuries

2. Dalton Model of the Atom In seventeenth century, Robert Boyle, British scientist, concluded from experiments, that a gas was made of tiny particles In 1803, John Dalton proposed that matter is discontinuous as Democritus suggested. But he offered experimental evidence. CO 2 H 2 O

3. Atomic Theory 1) An element is composed of tiny, indivisible, indestructible particles called atoms 2) All atoms of an element are identical and have the same properties. 3) Atoms of different elements combine to form compounds 4) Compounds contain atoms in small whole number ratios 5) Atoms can combine in more than one ratio to form different compounds

4. Thomson Model of the Atom Thomson discovered a negatively charged particle, called an Electron (e - ) and a positively charged particle called a Proton (p + ) Thomson proposed a subatomic model of the atom (plum pudding model). Mass of an electron = 9.11 x 10 -28 Mass of proton = 1.67 x 10 -24 + + + + + ++ + + + + + + -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

5. Rutherford Model of the Atom

6. Rutherford Model of the Atom 1) The most of  -particles passed through foil because an atom is largely empty space with electrons moving about. 2) The center of the atom is the atomic nucleus containing protons 3) Compared to the atom, the nucleus is tiny and has very high density 4) Negatively charged electrons are distributed about positively charged nucleus. Diameter of atom = 1 x 10 -8 cm Diameter of atom = 1 x 10 -13 cm Rutherford also predicted neutral particles along with protons

7. Discovery of Neutrons In 1932 James Chadwick discovered the neutrons (n 0 ) Subatomic Particle SymbolLocationRelative charge Relative mass Electron Proton Neutron e-p+n0e-p+n0 Outside nucleus inside nucleus Inside nucleus +1 0 1/1836 1

9. Isotopes For most elements, the number of neutrons in the nucleus varies Definition of isotope: Atoms of the same element that have different number of neutrons in the nucleus are called isotopes.

10. Isotopes

11. Atomic mass Carbon mass = 1.99 x 10 -23 “ Carbon-12 has been chosen as reference standard” Unit for Atomic mass is amu Atomic mass unit is equal to 1/12 the mass of carbon-12 atom Atomic mass: The average mass of naturally occurring isotopes

12. Calculation of Atomic mass 12 C mass = 12.000 amu, Abundance= 98.89% 13 C mass = 13.003 amu, Abundance = 1.11% Unit values of abundance for both isotopes: 98.89/100 = 0.9889 for 12C 1.11/100 = 0.111 for 13C 12C mass = 12.000 amu x 0.9889 = 11.87 amu 13C mass = 13.003 amu x 0.0111 = 0.144 amu Carbon (average)mass = 12.01 amu

14. The Quantum concept of energy Continuous energy level Quantized energy level

15. Bohr Model of the atom Electrons orbit around the atomic nucleus just as planets orbit around the sun The electrons travel in a fixed energy orbit, energy level

21. Quantum mechanical model of the atom 1) Uncertainty principle: It is impossible to determine the location and energy of electron- Heisenberg, Germany 2) The region of high probability (~95%) for finding an electron of given energy is called an “orbital”
