1 The Structure of the Atom The Building Block of Matter

2 Atomic Structure At the conclusion of our time together, you should be able to:  List the 3 major subatomic particles with their relative size, mass and charges  List 3 other sub-subatomic particles (not General)  Define the mass number, atomic number and symbol from an element on the periodic table

3 Warning: Old Farts Swimming!!!

4 An atom consists of a nucleus nucleus (of protons and neutrons) (of protons and neutrons) electrons in space about the nucleus. electrons in space about the nucleus. The Atom Nucleus Electron cloud

5 Atoms are the smallest particles of an element that retains the chemical properties of that element Parts: Parts:  Nucleus – small region in the center of the atom. (+ charged protons, and o charged neutrons)  Electron Cloud – large region, compared to nucleus, where electrons are found.

6 Check out the Size of Nucleus vs. Electron Cloud Check out the Size of Nucleus vs. Electron Cloud The atom is extremely small. One teaspoon of water has 3 times as many atoms as the Atlantic Ocean has teaspoons of water. If Cleveland Stadium were an atom, a marble on the 50 yard line would represent the nucleus.

7 Can We See Atoms? Magnesium atoms (white) above Boron atoms (grey) seen by the transmission electron microscope

8 Questions about teenage men answered by teenage women!!! Q: What do you call an intelligent, good looking, sensitive young man? A: A rumour

9 Proton Neutron Electron The Atom Nucleus Electron shell / Electron cloud

10 The Atom Nucleus The center of the atom. (it has protons & neutrons) Nucleus The center of the atom. (it has protons & neutrons) Electron shell / Electron cloud

11 Summary of Atomic Particles Protons (p + ) + electrical charge mass = 1.673 x 10 -24 g relative mass = 1.007 atomic mass units (amu) but we can round to 1 Neutrons (n o ) no electrical charge mass = 1.675 x 10 -24 g relative mass = 1.009 amu but we can round to 1

12 Summary of Atomic Particles Electrons (e - ) negative electrical charge mass = 9.109 x 10 -28 g relative mass = 0.0005 amu but we can round to 0

13 Proton Neutron Electron Mass 1 amu 1 amu 0 amu Charge +1 0 -1

14 Questions about teenage men answered by teenage women!!! Q: Why do young men whistle when they are sitting on the toilet? A: It helps them remember which end to wipe!

15 Tevatron – World’s highest energy particle accelerator. 4 miles in circumference Why? To find even smaller particles!!!

16 We send protons and antiprotons in opposite directions, and smash them together.

24 Interesting Name for a Boat!!

25 Photon = a particle of light. Electromagnetic Radiation ALL light. Visible AND Invisible visible light, x-rays, gamma rays, radio waves, microwaves, ultraviolet rays, infrared.

26 Photon a particle of light Laser

27 Electromagnetic radiation

28 e -1. Proton Electron Photon Mass comparison Proton is about 1800 x electron Electron is about 1,000,000 x photon

29 Subatomic Particles Summary Quarks Quarks Fast moving point of energy Fast moving point of energy He  Up quark = + 2/3  Down quark = - 1/3 Sum of the charges is the electrical charge

30 Quark Calculations (for protons and neutrons) Each proton is 2 up quarks and 1 down quark Each proton is 2 up quarks and 1 down quark  2(2/3) + 1(-1/3) = 4/3 – 1/3 = 3/3 or +1 Each neutron is 2 down quarks and 1 up quark  2(-1/3) + 2/3 = 0

31 Great Little Invention !!!!

32 Atomic Number, Z All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, Z 13 Al 26.981 Atomic Number Atomic Symbol AVERAGE Atomic Mass

33 Mass Number Number of protons + number of neutrons in an atom. Number of protons + number of neutrons in an atom. Example: 2 protons and 2 neutrons Example: 2 protons and 2 neutrons When solving for number of neutrons: round average atomic number properly, subtract the atomic number from the mass number. When solving for number of neutrons: round average atomic number properly, subtract the atomic number from the mass number. Example: K with atomic number 19 and average atomic mass 39.0983 amu. Example: K with atomic number 19 and average atomic mass 39.0983 amu. 20 neutrons 20 neutrons

34 Mass Number, A C atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons is the mass standard = 12 atomic mass units (amu) Mass Number (A) = # protons + # neutrons NOT on the periodic table It is the Average atomic mass (which is on the periodic table) rounded to the nearest whole number

35 Element Symbols Hyphen Notation: Hyphen Notation: Element symbol – Mass # (rounded) Example: Helium  He-4 Nuclear Symbol: Nuclear Symbol: Superscript Mass Number, Subscript Atomic Number, SymbolExample: He 4 2

36 Atomic Structure Let’s see if you can:  List the 3 major subatomic particles with their relative size, mass and charges  List 3 other sub-subatomic particles  Define the mass number, atomic number and symbol from an element on the periodic table

37 In Summary Atomic number = Atomic number = the # protons and also the # electrons if the atom is neutral the # protons and also the # electrons if the atom is neutral Mass Number from PT = Average atomic number rounded to the nearest whole number Mass Number = # protons + # neutrons
