A proton has a mass ______ ______ ________ than the mass of an electron. All atoms besides the __________ _________ ______ also contain neutrons. The nuclei of atoms of different elements ______ in the number of protons they contain and therefore in the ________ ___ ________ _______ they possess. The ________ ___ ________ in an atom's nucleus determines that ______ _________. There are short-range proton-neutron, proton-proton, and neutron-neutron forces that hold the nuclear particles together called ________ ________. The radius of an atom is the distance from the center of the nucleus to the outer portion of the electron cloud. Atomic radii are so small they are expressed in picometers. There are 10 picometer in 1 meter. Atomic Number The________ _________ of an element is the number of _______ in the nucleus of each atom of that element. Date ___________________ Look at the periodic table, elements are placed in order of ___________ atomic number. The atomic number identifies an element. Because atoms are neutral, the atomic number also tells you how many __________ that atom contains. Isotopes The simplest atoms are those of hydrogen. All hydrogen atoms contain only one proton. However, hydrogen atoms can contain __________ _________ ___ _________. Protium, deuterium, and tritium are isotopes of hydrogen. Isotopes are atoms of the same _________ that have different _________. Mass Number The isotopes of a particular element all have the __________________________ ________________________________. The ______ _________ is the _________________________ in the nucleus of an isotope. Designating Isotopes Isotopes usually do not have distinct names like hydrogen's isotopes. Instead isotopes are usually specified by their ______ _________. Two methods for specifying isotopes: 1) ________ __________ - the mass number is written with a hyphen after the name of the element. Example: uranium-235 2) ________ __________ - the mass number is written as the superscript and the subscript is the atomic number. mass number - atomic number = number of neutrons 235 (protons + neutrons) - 92 protons = 143 neutrons _________ is a general term for any isotope of any element. 2 of 10 Date ___________________ Relative Atomic Masses Because the masses of atoms expressed in grams are very small, it is more convenient to use __________ _________ _______. The standard used by scientist for units of atomic mass is the ___________ ________. It has been assigned a mass of exactly 12 _________ ______ ______ or 12 ____. One_________ ______ ______, or 1 amu, is exactly 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom. Average Atomic Masses of Elements Most elements occur naturally as __________ of _________. Calculating weighted averages: Suppose you have a box containing two sizes of marbles. If 25% of the marbles have masses of 2.00 g each and 75% have masses of 3.00 g each, what is the weighted average calculated? ________ ________ ______ is the weighted average of the atomic masses of the _________ _________ isotopes of an element. Multiply the mass of each marble by the decimal fraction representing its percentage in the mixture. Then add the products. (2.00 g x 0.25) + (3.00 g x 0.75) = 2.75 g Calculating Average Atomic Mass The average atomic mass of an element depends on both the _____ and the _________ ___________ of each of the element's isotopes. Naturally occurring copper consists of 69.17 % copper-63, which has an atomic mass of 62.929 598 amu, and 30.38% copper-65 which has an atomic mass of 64.927 793 amu. (0.6917 x 62.929 598 amu) + (0.3038 x 64.927 793 amu) = 63.55 amu An element's atomic mass is usually round to _____ ________ _______ before it is used in a calculation.

He called nature’s basic particle an _________, based on the Greek word meaning “indivisible”. _____________ on the other hand, did not believe in ________. He thought that all matter was continuous, and his opinion was accepted for nearly 2000 years. Neither view was supported by experimental evidence, so each remained speculation until the eighteenth century. Then scientists began to gather evidence favoring the ______________________________________. Foundations of Atomic Theory The transformation of a substance or substances into one or more new substances is known as a ____________ ____________. In the 1790s, the study of matter was revolutionized by a new emphasis on the ________________ analysis of chemical reactions. Aided by improved _____________, investigators began to accurately measure the _________ of the elements and compounds they were studying. This lead to the discovery of several basic laws: The _______ ____ ____________________ ____ ________ states that mass is neither destroyed nor created during ordinary chemical reactions or physical changes. The _______ ____ ________________ ________________ o Example from previous test: The _______ ____ ________________ ________________ o Example from previous test: Dalton’s Atomic Theory In 1808, an English schoolteacher named _______ __________ proposed an explanation for these three laws. He reasoned that elements were composed of atoms and that only __________ _____________ of atoms can combine to form compounds. His theory can be summed up by the following statements. 1. _______________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ 6 of 10 Date ___________________ 2. _______________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ 3. _______________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ 4. _______________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ 5. _______________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________ Modern Atomic Theory By relating atoms to the measurable property of mass, Dalton turned Democritus’s idea into a ______________ ____________ that could be tested by experiment. But not all aspects of Dalton’s atomic theory have proven to be correct. For example, today we know that atoms are ___________ into even smaller particles (although the law of conservation of mass still holds true for chemical reaction). Also a given element can have atoms with different ________, called ____________. Not all of the atomic theory has been discarded. Instead it has been modified to explain the new observations. The important concepts that (1) all matter is composed of atoms and that (2) atoms of any one element differ in properties from atoms of another element, remain unchanged. Discovering the Structure of the Atom The Electron Discovered during investigations into the relationship between ___________ and matter. 7 of 10 Date ___________________ Current was passed through a _______________ and scientist noticed that the tube glowed. The glow was a stream of particles that they called a _____________. The ray flowed from the _________ (negative terminal) to the _________ (positive terminal). Observation from these experiments: The cathode rays were deflected by a magnetic field that was negatively charged. (That must mean the cathode ray was made of ___________ _________ __________ because they were deflected or repelled by the negative magnetic field.) __________________________ conducted more experiments with cathode rays. He was able to measure the ___________________ of an electron. It was always the same no matter what _______ or ______ was used. So all cathode rays were composed of identical negatively charged particles which were named _________. Since it didn’t matter what gas or metal was used it was concluded that electrons were present in ____________________________________. YIKES! That means the atom is divisible! __________________________ performed the ______________________ which was able to measure the _______ ________ of an electron. Using Thomson’s charge-to-mass ratio he was able to determine the _______ of the electron. It was extremely small. _________ the mass of the simplest atom, hydrogen. Two inferences were made once the electron was discovered: The atom must also contain ___________ charged particles since atoms are electrically _________. Since electrons are so extremely small, the other particles that make up an atom must account for most of their _______. Thomson proposed the _______________________. He said the negative electrons were spread evenly throughout the positive charge of the rest of the atom. Think of a watermelon: the seeds are the electrons; the fruit is the positive charge. The seeds do not contribute much to the overall mass of the watermelon. This model was ___________ with further experimentation. The Nucleus _____________________ and associates performed the _________________________ . Shot a thin piece of _____ _____with fast moving ______ particles (_________ ________) If the charge and mass were uniform throughout the atom the alpha particles should pass straight through. 1 in 8000 alpha particles _______________ to the source! What did this mean??? 8 of 10 Date ___________________ The alpha particles must have hit some powerful force and since it only happened 1 in 8000 times the force had to take up a very small _________ ___ ________. Since the alpha particles are positive they must have been __________ by positive charge. Rutherford called this small, dense bundle of positive charge the _________. Now we know where the positive charge is located…where are the electrons located? In 1913, Danish physicist _________ _________ proposed a model of the _____________ ________. According to the model, the electron can circle the nucleus only in __________ ________, or ___________. The electron is in its ____________ ____________ ____________ when it is in the ___________ ___________ to the ___________. The __________ is separated from the nucleus by a large empty space where the ___________ cannot exist. The __________ of the ___________ is higher when it is in __________ that are successively farther from the nucleus. The ____________ ____________ ____________ of an atom is its ____________ __________. A state in which an atom has a _________ ______________ __________ than it has in its ground state is an ____________ __________. While in orbit, the electron can neither ________ nor ________ energy. It can, however, move to a __________ ___________ __________. Visible light is a kind of _____________ ___________, which is a form of energy that exhibits wavelike behavior as it travels through space. A ________ is a particle of electromagnetic radiation having zero mass and carrying a quantum of energy. 9 of 10 Date ___________________ The success of _______ ________ of the hydrogen atom led many scientists to conclude that a similar model could be applied to all atoms. However, Bohr’s approach _____ _____ _________ the spectra of atoms with _______ _______ _____ __________. Nor did Bohr’s theory explain the ___________ ___________ ___ _______. The Quantum Model of the Atom In 1924, the French scientist Louis de Broglie hypothesized that electrons had a dualnature. Electrons have the behavior of both particles and waves. This was confirmed with diffraction experiments that showed electrons bend, or diffract just like waves. De Broglie suggested that electrons be considered waves confined to the space around an atomic nucleus. If electrons are both waves and particles, where are they in the atom??? In 1927, the German physicist _________ ______________ proposed that there is always an _____________ in trying to locate an electron because of the way they are detected. ANALOGY: Think of a mouse running through a dark house. If you hear the mouse and point a flashlight at it, the mouse will turn and run in a different direction than it would have gone without the light. The ________________ ________________ ________________ states that it is impossible to determine simultaneously both the position and velocity of an electron or any other particle. In 1926, the Austrian physicist _________ _______________ developed an equation that treated electrons in atoms as waves using the hypothesis that electrons have a dual-nature. From these two ideas, we realized that electrons do not travel around the nucleus in neat orbits, as Bohr had postulated. Instead, they exist in certain regions called ___________. An ___________ is a three-dimensional region around the nucleus that indicates the probable location of an electron. 10 of 10
