2. HISTORY OF THE ATOM 460 BC Democritus develops the idea of atoms he pounded up materials in his pestle and mortar until he had reduced them to smaller and smaller particles which he called ATOMA (greek for indivisible)

3. HISTORY OF THE ATOM 1808 John Dalton suggested that all matter was made up of tiny spheres that were able to bounce around with perfect elasticity and called them ATOMS

4. HISTORY OF THE ATOM 1898 Joseph John Thompson found that atoms could sometimes eject a far smaller negative particle which he called an ELECTRON

5. HISTORY OF THE ATOM Thompson develops the idea that an atom was made up of electrons scattered unevenly within an elastic sphere surrounded by a soup of positive charge to balance the electron's charge 1904 like plums surrounded by pudding. PLUM PUDDING MODEL

6. HISTORY OF THE ATOM 1910 Ernest Rutherford oversaw Geiger and Marsden carrying out his famous experiment. they fired Helium nuclei at a piece of gold foil which was only a few atoms thick. they found that although most of them passed through. About 1 in 10,000 hit

7. HISTORY OF THE ATOM gold foil helium nuclei They found that while most of the helium nuclei passed through the foil, a small number were deflected and, to their surprise, some helium nuclei bounced straight back. helium nuclei

8. HISTORY OF THE ATOM Rutherford’s new evidence allowed him to propose a more detailed model with a central nucleus. He suggested that the positive charge was all in a central nucleus. With this holding the electrons in place by electrical attraction However, this was not the end of the story.

9. HISTORY OF THE ATOM 1913 Niels Bohr studied under Rutherford at the Victoria University in Manchester. Bohr refined Rutherford's idea by adding that the electrons were in orbits. Rather like planets orbiting the sun. With each orbit only able to contain a set number of electrons.

10. Bohr’s Atom electrons in orbits nucleus

11. HELIUM ATOM + N N + - - proton electron neutron Shell What do these particles consist of?

12. ATOMIC STRUCTURE Particle proton neutron electron Charge + ve charge -ve charge No charge 1 1 nil Mass

13. ATOMIC STRUCTURE the number of protons in an atom the number of protons and neutrons in an atom He 2 4 Atomic mass Atomic number number of electrons = number of protons

14. ATOMIC STRUCTURE Electrons are arranged in Energy Levels or Shells around the nucleus of an atom. first shella maximum of 2 electrons second shella maximum of 8 electrons third shella maximum of 8 electrons

15. ATOMIC STRUCTURE There are two ways to represent the atomic structure of an element or compound; 1.Electronic Configuration 2.Dot & Cross Diagrams

16. ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION With electronic configuration elements are represented numerically by the number of electrons in their shells and number of shells. For example; N Nitrogen 7 14 2 in 1 st shell 5 in 2 nd shell configuration = 2, 5 2 + 5 = 7

17. ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION Write the electronic configuration for the following elements; Ca O ClSi Na 20 40 11 23 8 17 16 35 14 28 B 11 5 a)b)c) d)e)f) 2,8,8,22,8,1 2,8,72,8,42,3 2,6

18. DOT & CROSS DIAGRAMS With Dot & Cross diagrams elements and compounds are represented by Dots or Crosses to show electrons, and circles to show the shells. For example; Nitrogen N XX X X XX X N 7 14

19. DOT & CROSS DIAGRAMS Draw the Dot & Cross diagrams for the following elements; OCl 817 16 35 a) b) O X X X X X X X X Cl X X X XX X X X X X X X X X X X X X

20. Elements are made up of one type of atom, but there can be slightly different forms of the atoms in an element. Although atoms of the same element always have the same number of protons, they may have different numbers of neutrons. Atoms that mass number is different called isotopes For example, two isotopes of carbon: mass number is different atomic number is the same

21.  Most naturally-occurring carbon exists as carbon-12, about 1% is carbon-13 and a much smaller amount is carbon-14. 6 protons 6 electrons 6 neutrons 6 protons 6 electrons 7 neutrons 6 protons 6 electrons 8 neutrons

22. The isotopes of an element are virtually identical in their chemical reactions. The uncharged neutrons make little difference to chemical properties but do affect physical properties such as melting point and density. Natural samples of elements are often a mixture of isotopes. This is because they have the same number of protons and the same number of electrons.

23. Hydrogen-1 makes up the vast majority of the naturally-occurring element but two other isotopes exist. 1 proton 0 neutrons 1 electron hydrogen 1 proton 1 neutrons 1 electron deuterium 1 proton 2 neutrons 1 electron tritium

24. What are the particle numbers in each isotope below? Almost all of naturally-occurring oxygen is oxygen-16, but about 0.2% is oxygen-18. oxygen-16 8 protons 8 neutrons 8 electrons oxygen-18 8 protons 10 neutrons 8 electrons

25. SUMMARY 1.The Atomic Number of an atom = number of protons in the nucleus. 2. The Atomic Mass of an atom = number of Protons + Neutrons in the nucleus. 3. The number of Protons = Number of Electrons. 4. Electrons orbit the nucleus in shells. 5. Each shell can only carry a set number of electrons. 6.Isotopes – Different atoms of the same element. They have the same number of protons and electrons, but a different number of neutrons. S1/W1/Handout 1/Ana/Chem/Grade 10/10-11
