Chapter 3 Atoms: The Building Blocks of Matter Chapter 3 The Atom: From Philosophical Idea To Scientific Theory The Atom: From Philosophical Idea To Scientific Theory Remember the idea that matter is made of atoms dates back to 400 BC. Not proven experimentally until 1700’s The Greeks History of the Atom In 400 B.C the Greeks tried to understand matter (chemicals) and broke them down into earth, wind, fire, and air. ~ ~ Greek Model Democritus Greek philosopher Idea of ‘democracy’ Idea of ‘atomos’ Atomos = ‘indivisible’ ‘Atom’ is derived No experiments to support idea Democritus’s model of atom No protons, electrons, or neutrons Solid and INDESTRUCTABLE Alchemy After that chemistry was ruled by alchemy. They believed that that could take any cheap metals and turn them into gold. Alchemists were almost like magicians. elixirs, physical immortality Alchemy Alchemical symbols for substances… .. . ...... . ..... GOLD SILVER COPPER IRON SAND transmutation: changing one substance into another D In ordinary chemistry, we cannot transmute elements. Contributions of alchemists: Information about elements - the elements mercury, sulfur, and antimony were discovered - properties of some elements Develop lab apparatus / procedures / experimental techniques - alchemists learned how to prepare acids. - developed several alloys - new glassware Timeline Greeks (Democratus ~450 BC) Discontinuous theory of matter Issac Newton (1642 - 1727) ALCHEMY 400 BC 300 AD 1000 2000 American Independence (1776) Foundations of Atomic Theory Observations and chemical reactions led to the following scientific laws that describe how compounds are formed. Foundations of Atomic Theory Law of Conservation of Mass (Lavoisier) Mass is neither destroyed nor created during ordinary chemical reactions or physical changes. Law of Definite Proportions (Proust) The fact that a chemical compound contains the same elements in exactly the same proportions by mass regardless of the size of the sample or source of the compound. Law of Multiple Proportions (Dalton) If two or more different compounds are composed of the same two elements, then the ratio of the masses of the second element combined with a fixed mass of the first element is always a ratio of small whole numbers. Conservation of Mass 2 H2 + O2 2 H2O H H H2 O H O2 + H2 H O H2O O H 2O H H O H H 4 atoms hydrogen 2 atoms oxygen 4 atoms hydrogen 2 atoms oxygen Legos are Similar to Atoms H H2 H H O + H2 H H O2 H O H 2O H O O H H 2O Legos can be taken apart and built into many different things.

Analysis of this compound led Proust to formulate the law of definite proportions. + 103 g of copper carbonate 53 g of copper + 40 g of oxygen 10 g of carbon Law of Multiple Proportions John Dalton (1766 – 1844) If two elements form more than one compound, the ratio of the second element that combines with the first element in each is a simple whole number. H2O H2O2 water hydrogen peroxide Ratio of oxygen is 1:2 (an exact ratio) Dalton’s Atomic Theory English chemist in the early 1800’s Dalton stated that elements consisted of tiny particles called atoms He also called the elements pure substances because all atoms of an element were identical and that in particular they had the same mass. Dalton’s Atomic Theory 1. All matter consists of extremely small particles that are indivisible and indestructible called atoms. 2. Atoms of a given element are identical in their physical and chemical properties. Atoms of different elements have different physical and chemical properties. 3. Atoms of different elements combine in simple, whole number ratios to form chemical compounds. 4. Atoms cannot be subdivided, created or destroyed. 5. In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or arranged. Although some exceptions have been discovered, the theory still stands today, and has been expanded and modified. Daltons’ Models of Atoms Carbon dioxide, CO2 Water, H2O Methane, CH4 Structure of Atoms Scientist began to wonder what an atom was like. Was it solid throughout with no internal structure or was it made up of smaller, subatomic particles? It was not until the late 1800’s that evidence became available that atoms were composed of smaller parts. Chapter 3 The Structure of the Atom Structure of Atoms The cathode ray tube led to the discovery of electrons, small, negatively charged particles at the turn of the century. J. J. Thomson - English physicist Made a piece of equipment called a cathode ray tube. It is a vacuum tube - all the air has been pumped out. A Cathode Ray Tube Zumdahl, Zumdahl, DeCoste, World of Chemistry 2002, page 58 Thomson’s Experiment - voltage source + vacuum tube metal disks Thomson’s Experiment ON - OFF voltage source + Passing an electric current makes a beam appear to move from the negative to the positive end Thomson’s Experiment ON - OFF voltage source + Thomson’s Experiment ON - OFF voltage source + + By adding a magnetic field… he found that the moving pieces were negative. J.J. Thomson He proved that ALL atoms of any element must contain these negative particles. He knew that atoms did not have a net negative charge and so there must be balancing the negative charge. J.J. Thomson Plum Pudding Model In 1910 proposed the Plum Pudding model Negative electrons were embedded into a positively charged spherical cloud. Zumdahl, Zumdahl, DeCoste, World of Chemistry 2002, page 56 Spherical cloud of Positive charge Electrons Television Picture Tube Blue beam Green beam Red beam Glass window Shadow mask Fluorescent screen Electron gun Electron beam Deflecting electromagnets Red beam Green beam Blue beam Shadow mask Fluorescent screen with phosphor dots Ernest Rutherford (1871-1937) Learned physics in J.J. Thomson’ lab. Noticed that ‘alpha’ particles were sometime deflected by something in the air. Gold-foil experiment Rutherford ‘Scattering’ In 1909 Rutherford undertook a series of experiments He fired a (alpha) particles at a very thin sample of gold foil According to the Thomson model the a particles would only be slightly deflected Rutherford discovered that they were deflected through large angles and could even be reflected straight back to the source Lead collimator Gold foil a particle source q Rutherford’s Apparatus beam of alpha particles radioactive substance circular ZnS - coated fluorescent screen gold foil Dorin, Demmin, Gabel, Chemistry The Study of Matter , 3rd Edition, 1990, page 120 What He Expected The alpha particles to pass through without changing direction (very much). Because… The positive charges were spread out evenly. Alone they were not enough to stop the alpha particles California WEB What he expected… California WEB What he got… Density and the Atom Since most of the particles went through, the atom was mostly empty. Because the alpha rays were deflected so much, the positive pieces it was striking were heavy. Small volume and big mass = big density This small dense positive area is the nucleus California WEB Rutherford’s Experiment Zumdahl, Zumdahl, DeCoste, World of Chemistry 2002, page 56 The Rutherford Atom n+ Zumdahl, Zumdahl, DeCoste, World of Chemistry 2002, page 57 Size of an atom Atoms are incredibly tiny. Measured in picometers (10-12 meters) Hydrogen atom, 32 pm radius Nucleus tiny compared to atom Radius of the nucleus near 10-15 m. Density near 1014 g/cm If the atom was the size of a stadium, the nucleus would be the size of a marble. California WEB Atoms All atoms have similar structure protons and neutrons cluster together to form a nucleus, or central core electrons orbit the space surrounding the nucleus then things change depending on the element Chapter 3 Counting Atoms Atoms Each element has a characteristic number of protons Si- silicon 14 protons H- hydrogen 1 ptoton Ag- silver 47 protons ↓ Atomic number Atomic Particles Protons are constant for an element, but electrons and neutrons can vary When electrons vary, the charge of the atom changes When neutrons vary, you have a different isotope of the atom Isotope- one of 2 or more atoms having the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons Isotopes Hydrogen 3 isotopes protium deuterium tritium 1 proton 1 proton 1 proton 0 neutrons 1 neutron 2 neutrons isotopes have very similar chemical properties Deuterium or hydrogen-2 Isotopes Contain the symbol of the element, the mass number and the atomic number # protons + # neutrons mass number # protons Mass number Atomic number X Isotopes Atomic Number = number of protons # of protons determines kind of atom/element Atomic Number = number of electrons in a neutral atom Mass Number = the number of protons + neutrons California WEB Mass Number mass # = protons + neutrons • always a whole number Neutron + • NOT on the Periodic Table!
