1 AP Chemistry Chapter 23 Notes

2 Henri Becquerel ruined some photographic plates with x-rays from a uranium source and radioactive decay was discovered in 1896.

3 Henri Becquerel’s experiment – (1896)
Tried to see if fluorescent minerals would give off X-rays. Set some out in the sun with covered photographic film. If minerals gave of X-rays when they fluoresced, the film should darken – and it did. Accidentally set some of these minerals in a dark drawer for a few days with undeveloped film, and was surprised to see the film strongly exposed. He knew they gave off X-rays when charged by the sun - but these results suggested the X-rays were coming from the mineral itself – Natural Radioactivity – No external energy source required!

4 Radioactivity One of the pieces of evidence for the fact that atoms are made of smaller particles came from the work of Marie Curie ( ). She discovered radioactivity, the spontaneous disintegration of some elements into smaller pieces.

5 Marie and Pierre Curie’s experiments with pitchblende – Discovered Radioactive Naturally occurring elements, particularly Uranium, Radium, and Polonium. Curium was named after Marie posthumously

6 THE GREAT DISCOVERY   W.K. Roentgen’s experiment (1895) - Fluorescence –Certain substances will absorb photons of energy when exposed to a source (i.e. cathode rays, the sun), and then emit them over a period of time – thus they glow in dark when exposed to UV light Cathode rays –beams of electrons Cathode ray tube (CRT) –Vacuum tube that has electric current passed through it . Component of television sets –that’s why they call it “the tube”   X-rays –Name given by Roentgen to unusual stray energy observed to cause fluorescence across the room when CRT was used… X-ray because he did not know what the heck it was….and the name stuck

7 BETA PARTICLES Consists of – high speed electron (from disintegration of neutron) Tissue damage potential – much greater than Alpha Harmful if ingested? – not as much as Alpha Can be blocked? – by glass, will penetrate skin

8 GOLD FOIL EXPERIMENT Ernest Rutherford and the Gold Foil Experiment
GOLD FOIL EXPERIMENT Ernest Rutherford and the Gold Foil Experiment   Disproved Thompson’s plum pudding model Proved the existence of a nucleus with a positive charge 

9 ALPHA PARTICLES Consists of – He nucleus Tissue damage potential – great – if internalized Harmful if ingested? – yup, very Can be blocked? – by layer of skin, or cardboard Note that atoms are NOT conserved in nuclear reactions, but mass numbers and atomic numbers are.

10 NUCLEAR RADIATION   Ernest Rutherford and the Lead block experiment (1899) -   Alpha rays () Beta rays ()– Gamma rays ()

11 Thompson 1906 Rutherford 1913 Bohr 1924
How did Rutherford’s gold foil experiment change the theory of the structure of the atom? Thompson 1906 Rutherford 1913 Bohr 1924

12 ARCHITECTURE OF THE ATOM
Atomic Number – Number of protons Determine what type of element an atom is Mass Number – Sum of total number of protons and neutrons in an atom Can change for an element depending upon the number of neutrons present Isotopes – Elements with the same atomic number, but different mass numbers Due to the difference in number of neutrons Example: C-14 and C-12 H-1, H-2, and H-3 Radioisotope – Isotope that is unstable and undergoes decay, thus giving off radiation      

13 Subatomic Particles PARTICLE LOCATION CHARGE MASS Proton nucleus +
 + 1 amu Neutron 1 amu  Electron Outside nucleus  - amu 

14 Protons (Atomic Number)
Common Isotopes Symbol Name Protons (Atomic Number) Neutrons Mass Number Electrons 73Li  Lithium -7   4 146 C Carbon-14   6 14 6 6731Ga Gallium -67 31  36 67  Isotopes of Particular interest – C-14 used in radiocarbon dating I-131 used in thyroid cancer treatment U-235 used in nuclear power

15 ISOTOPES IN NATURE Atomic Mass -Weighted Average mass of all existing isotopes of an element  Can be calculated by: (percent isotope 1)(molar mass isotopes 1) + (percent isotopes 2)(molar mass isotope 2) +…..     Try this with your grades as an example….   Final grades will be determined by giving homework 10%, labs 30%, and tests 60%… Homework grade = 85% Lab grade = 80% Test grade = 60%    Final grade = (.10)(.85) + (.30)(.80) + (.60)(.60) = .69   

16 Nuclear Section B Introduction
Approx. 90 known naturally occurring elements Approx. 350 known isotopes in our solar system Approx. 70 of these radioactive Radioactive – just means unstable – it naturally decays Approx. 1,600 Lab created isotopes There is a rather constant level of natural radiation in our environment – called background radiation

39 III. Nuclear Fusion Example #1 Requires 40,000,000 K to
overcome electrostatic repulsion

40 Half life SM x (1/2)n = EM (1/2)n = EM / SM or EM / SM = (1/2)n n Log (1/2) = Log (EM / SM) n = Log (EM / SM) / Log (1/2) n = t / t1/2 life

41 ln (N/No) = ln (1/2)n ln (N/No) = - kt t1/2life k = ln (1/2) = 0.693 t1/2life = 0.693/k A = kN

61 IONIZING RADIATION – HOW MUCH IS SAFE?
Rem – Roentgen equivalent to man 1Rem = 1000 mRem Does not matter what type of radiation it is, it still has the same ionizing effect on living tissue 1 mRem of exposure to radiation increases risk of cancer death by 1 in 4 million Two things to consider: Radiation density Radiation dose

62 RADIATION DAMAGE: NOW AND LATER
Radiation damage to your body can occur in several ways: Break apart essential molecules proteins (i.e. enzymes) nucleic acids (i.e. DNA) Mutations Kills cells Mutates sperm/ova Cancer Government recommends no greater than exposure to 500 mrem per year for general public Government recommends no greater than 5,000 mrem per year from the workplace

63 Factor Effect Dose Exposure time Area Exposed Tissue type
Table of Factors Effecting Biological Damage from Radiation Factor Effect Dose Increase in dose produces proportional increase in risk Exposure time Spreading out over time decreases risk Area Exposed Larger area means greater risk Tissue type Rapidly dividing cells more susceptible
