The Atom and Periodic Table Chemistry: Unit 7

Atomic Model Scientists  John Dalton  1803 John Dalton (Wikipedia.org)

Dalton’s Atomic Theory  All matter is made up of tiny, unbreakable particles called atoms (Democritus proposed this in 460-370 BC)  Atoms of the same element are identical, but they are different from atoms of other elements.  Chemical reactions occur when atoms are separated, joined, or rearranged

Successes and Problems  Verified theories and experiments by Democritus and Lavoisier (law of conservation of matter) and Proust (law of definite proportions).  We know today that atoms are made of smaller particles and can be split, and there can be isotopes of the same element.

Atomic Model Scientists (cont.)  Joseph John Thomson  1897  Found rays bent toward a positively charged plate and away from a negatively charged plate.  Determined cathode rays are made up of negatively charged particles referred to as electrons.

JJ’s Successes (additions to jigsaw activity)  Scientists were able to use JJ Thompson’s cathode ray tube to discover protons. (Rutherford; these had to balance the charge from the electrons)  The amount of charge on an electron and proton is equal but opposite, but the mass of a proton is much greater that that of an electron.

Thompson Again!  He also discovered that Neon consisted of atoms of two different masses.  Later, these were called isotopes: atoms of an element that are chemically alike but differ in mass (# of neutrons).  Scientists were then able to discover the neutron (1930s): a neutrally charged particle of equal mass to a proton.

Atomic Model Scientists (cont.)  Ernest Rutherford  1911  Discovered the positively charged nucleus through gold foil experiment. Ernest Rutherford (Nobelprize.org)

Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment http://wps.prenhall.com/wps/media/objects/602/616516/Media_Assets/Chapter02/Text_Images/FG02_05.JPG

Atomic Model Scientists (cont.)  Niels Bohr  1913 Niels Bohr (The University of New York)

Bohr Continued  Rutherford’s atomic model did not explain the chemical properties of elements  A description of the behavior of electrons was needed  Bohr described fixed energy levels an electron can possess.  In order to move up an energy level, energy must be absorbed and vice versa but energy is released  The more energy an e- has, the further from the nucleus it is

Bohr concluded  A quantum of energy is the amount of energy needed to move an e- from one level to the next  The higher the energy level, the less energy it takes to move from that level to the next  This idea failed to explain more complex elements… this is where Shrodinger comes in

Erwin Schroedinger (quantum mechanical model)  Electrons are not stuck in a “planetary orbit,” or exact path, around the nucleus.  Instead, they’re spherical regions, of space around the nucleus in which electrons are most likely to be found.  You can’t determine the exact location of an e -  Called “electron clouds”  A region of space in which there is a high probability of finding an electron

Atomic Structure  Atoms are made up of three subatomic particles: Subatomic = smaller than an atom Live where? Have mass? What charge? Protons Neutrons Electrons In nucleus Outside nucleus Yes, substantial No, negligible + - none

Elements  Substances made of only one type of atom  Identified by atomic number (protons!!!)  Can not be broken down into simpler substances

Element Symbols  Shorthand name of the element  Most are based on the Latin name  Ex: Gold = Au  The symbol is either: 1. One capital letter -ex: Carbon = C 2. Two letters…one capitol, one lower case -ex: Krypton = Kr

Determining Composition of atoms  Number of neutrons = mass number – atomic number  # of protons = atomic number  If neutral atom… # protons = # electrons  Charge is positive?  That # fewer electrons than protons  Charge is negative?  That # more electrons than protons

Is a tool to organize the elements

 By 1860, scientists had discovered 60 elements  They noticed some elements had similar properties.  They also noticed differences between the elements.

Atomic Model Scientists (cont.)  Dmitri Mendeleev  1869  Developed a Periodic Table based on atomic mass Dmitri Mendeleev (Wikipedia.org)

 1869  Developed a Periodic Table based on atomic mass  He left blank spaces Dmitri Mendeleev (Wikipedia.org)

 Realized chemical + physical properties of elements repeated in an orderly way.  Periodicity- the tendency to recur at regular intervals

Filling Rules for Electron Orbitals Aufbau Principle: Electrons are added one at a time to the lowest energy orbitals available until all the electrons of the atom have been accounted for. Pauli Exclusion Principle: An orbital can hold a maximum of two electrons. To occupy the same orbital, two electrons must spin in opposite directions. Hund’s Rule: Electrons occupy equal-energy orbitals so that a maximum number of unpaired electrons results. *Aufbau is German for “building up”
