Atom:
The term atom is derived from the Greek word “atoms” meaning indivisible.
The smallest particle of an element which may or may not have independent
existence is called an atom.
For example ,the atoms of He,Ne and A r exist independently while the
atoms of hydrogen ,nitrogen and oxygen do not have independent existence .An
atom is composed of more than 100 subatomic particles such as electron, proton ,
neutron , hyperons , neutrino, antineutrino, etc .However ,electron ,proton and
neutron are the fundamental particles of atoms. The atoms are the smallest particle
of an element which can take part in a chemical reaction.
Evidence of Atoms:
Atoms are extremely small. It is not possible actually to see them even with
a powerful optical microscope However ,the direct evidence for their existence
comes from an electron microscope. It uses beams of electrons instead of visible
light. The wavelength of electron is much shorter than that of visible light. With
optical microscopes, a clear and accurate image of an object that is smaller than the
wavelength of visible light cannot be obtained. It can only measure the size of an
object up to or above 500 nm. However, objects of the size of an atom be observed
in an electron microscope. Like light, the characteristics of an electron beam
change when it passes through or reflects off atoms in the thin layers of solids. The
electron beam takes a picture of atoms layers which can be magnified about 15
millions of times. An electron microscope photograph of a piece of graphite is
shown in the figure. The bright bands in the image are layers of carbon atoms.

X-ray work has shown that the diameters of atoms are of the order 2x10 -10 m which
is0.2 nm. Masses of atoms range from 10-27 to 10-25 kg. We can get an idea about
the small size of an atom from the fact that a full stop may have two million atoms
present in it. They are often expressed in atomic mass units (a.m.u).
amu= 1.661x 10-24 g=1.661x10-27 kg
Molecule:
“The smallest particle of a pure substance which can exist independently is
called a molecule.”
A molecule may contain one or more atoms. The number of atoms present in
a single molecule of an element is called atomicity. The molecules of elements can
be monatomic, diatomic,Triatomic and polyatomic etc, if they contain one, two
and three atoms respectively. A molecule of an element consists of one or more
similar atoms . For example , He, Ar, O2,CL2, O3, P4, S8. A molecule of a
compound consists of two or more different atoms. For example, HCI, H 2S, CO2,
NH3, H2SO4,C12H22 O11.
The sizes of molecules are bigger than atoms. Their sizes depend upon the
number of atoms present in molecules and their shapes. A molecule having a very
high molar mass is called a macromolecule. For example, hemoglobin is a
macromolecule which is found in blood. Hemoglobin carries oxygen from lungs to
all parts of the body. Each molecule of hemoglobin is made up of nearly 10,000
atoms. Hemoglobin molecule is 68,000 times heavier than a hydrogen atom.
Ions:
“The species which carry either positive or negative charge are called ions.”
An ion may be a charged atom, group of atoms or molecules. Ions are
formed by the gain or loss of electrons by neutral atoms or molecules. The number
of protons in the nucleus never changes in the formation of ions.
Examples:
Na+, Ca2+ , NH , Cl-, O2- , NO ,CO -, N ,CO+,CH
Cation
“An ion that has a positive charge is called a “Cation”.
They are formed when an atom of an element loses one or more electrons.
A A + + eThe charge on a cation may be +1, +2 or +3 . The charge present on an ion
depends upon the number of electrons lost by an atom. Energy is always required
to form positive ions. The Formation of the positive ion is an endothermic process.
The most common positive ions are formed by the metal atoms. The positive ions
having group atoms are less common.
Examples:
Anion
Na + , K + ,Ca2+, Mg 2+ , A13+ , Sn 4+ , NH , H3 O +

“An ion that has a negative charge is called an anion.”
They are formed when a neutral atom of an element gains one or more
electrons.
B+ e - B –
Usually, energy is liberated when an electron is added to the isolated neutral atom.
The formation of a uninegetive ion is an exothermic process. The most common
negative ions are formed by the non-metal atoms.

Molecular Ion:“An ion which is formed when a molecule loses or gains an electron is
called a molecular ion.”
Positive molecular ions are formed by removing electrons from neutral molecules.
Negative molecular ions are formed when extra electrons are attached to neutral
molecules. Cationic molecular ions are more abundant than anionic ions.
Molecular ions can be generated by passing a beam of high-energy electrons ,
alpha particles or X-rays through molecules in gaseous state. The break down of
molecular ions obtained from the natural products can give important information
about their structure.
ww

llon
Examples:
N , CO + , CH , N , etc
Positive ions of molecules can be generated by bombarding the gas, or vapour of
the substance with electrons. The molecular ions produced often break into
fragments, giving several different kinds of positive ions.
Thus the original molecule can give rise to a number of ions .
Relative Atomic mass:“The mass of an atom of an element as compared to the mass of an atom of
carbon-12 is called relative atomic mass.”
An atom is an extremely small particle . The mass of an individual atom is
extremely small in quantity . It is not possible to weigh individual atoms or even
small number of atoms directly . We do not have any balance to weigh such an
extremely small mass. That is why for atoms, the unit of mass used is the atomic
mass unit (amu) and not measurement I.e, grams , kilograms ,pounds and so on.
Atomic Mass Unit (amu):
“A mass unit equal to exactly one-twelfth ( th)the mass of a carbon -12 atom is
called atomic mass unit.”
For atoms , the atomic mass unit (amu) is used to express the relative atomic
because its mass of 12 units has been determined very accurately by using mass
spectrometer . The relative atomic mass of C is 12,000 amu and relative atomic
mass of H is 1.0078 amu .

Isotopes {Greek Isotopes means → same place}
The atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different
atomic mass are called isotopes.”
Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons but
different number of neutrons in their nuclei. They are different kind of atoms of the
same element. Isotopes of the same element have the same chemical properties but
slightly different physical properties; they have the same position in the periodic
table because they have the same atomic number. For example, hydrogen has three
isotopes

nine and tin has eleven isotopes .
Relative Abundance of Isotopes:
The isotopes of the elements have their own natural abundance. The
properties of a particular element mostly correspond to the most abundant isotopes
of that element.
The relative abundance of the isotopes of elements can be determined by mass
spectrometry .At present above 280 different isotopes of elements occur in nature.
They include 40 radioactive isotopes. About 300 unstable radioactive isotopes have
been produced artificially.

Odd- Even Relationships:
1.
The elements with even atomic number usually have larger
number of stable isotopes.
2.
The elements with odd atomic number almost never possess more
than two stable isotopes. For example, the elements
As,
I and
Au have only single isotopes. These elements are known as monoisotopic elements.
The isotopes whose mass number is multiples of four are most

nearly 50% of the earth‟s crust.
4.
The isotopes with even mass number and even atomic number are
more abundant and more stable. Out of 280 naturally occurring isotopes,
154 isotopes belong to this type.
Remember that: most of the elements with even atomic number have even mass
number whereas most of the elements with odd atomic number have odd mass
number.
Determination of relative atomic masses of isotopes by mass spectrometry:
Mass Spectrometer:
“An instrument which is used to measure the relative atomic masses and relative
abundances of different isotopes present in a sample of an elements is called a
mass spectrometer.”
It measures the mass to charge ratio of atoms in the form of positive ions.
Types of mass spectrometers
1.
Aston’s mass spectrograph
The first mass spectrometer known as mass spectrograph was invented by
Aston in 1919. It was designed to identify the isotopes of an element on
the basis of their atomic masses. The mass spectrograph operates on the
same principle as a mass spectrometer. The main difference is that a mass
spectrograph uses a photographic plate to detect ions instead of an
electrical device.
2.
Dumpster’s mass Spectrometer
It was designed for the identification of elements which were available in
solid state.

“The use of mass spectrometer to identify different isotopes of an element
by measuring their masses is called mass spectrometry.”
The method involves analysis of the path of a charged particle in a
magnetic field .
Principle of mass spectrometry
In this technique, a substance is first vaporized. It is then converted to
gaseous positive ions with the help of high energy electrons. The gaseous positive
ions are separately on the basis of their mass to charge (m/e) ratios. The results are
recorded alacrity in the form of peaks. The relative heights of the peaks give the
relative isotopes abundances.
Working of mass spectrometer
The solid substance under examination for the separation of isotopes is
converted into vapors. Under a very low pressure 10 -6 to 10-7 torr, these vapors are
allowed to enter the ionization chamber .
In ionization chamber, the vapors are bombarded with fast moving
electrons from an electron gun .The atoms present in the form of vapours collide
with electrons. The force of collision knocked out electrons from atoms. Usually,
one electron is removed form an atom. The atoms turn into positive ions. These
positive ions have different masses depending upon the nature of the isotopes
present in them. The positive ion of each isotope has its own m/e value.
When a potential difference (E) of 500-2000 volts is applied between
perforated accelerating plates, then these positive ions are strongly attracted
towards the negative plate. In this way the ions are accelerated.
These ions are then allowed to pass through a strong magnetic field of
strength (H), which will separate them on the basis of their
values. On entering
the magnetic field the ions begin to move in a circular path. The path they take
depends on the mass to charge
ratios. The ions of definite
value will move
in the form of groups one after the other and fall on the on the electrometer. The
electrometer is also called an ion collector. The electrometer develops the electric
current. The mathematical relationships for
is:
=
Where H is the strength of magnetic field, E is the strength of electrical field , r is
the radius of circular path .
www.allonlinefree.com
1st year chemistry notes
If E is increased, by keeping H constant then radius will increase and
positive ion of a particular
value will fall at a different palace as compared to
the first place. This can also be done by changing the magnetic field, Each ion sets
up a minute electrical current. The strength of the current thus measured gives the
e.c
om
relative abundance of ions of ions of a definite
value.
Similarly the ions of other isotopes having different masses are made to fall
on the collector and the current strength is measured. The current strength in each
case gives the relative abundance of each of the isotopes. The same experiment is
performed with C-12 isotopes and the current strength is compared. This
comparison allows us to measure the exact mass number of the isotope. The

an isotope, the smaller the radius of curvature produces b0 the magnetic field

In modern Spectrometers, each ion hits a detector; the ionic current is
amplified and is fed to the recorder. The recorder makes a graph showing the
relative abundance of isotopes plotted against the mass number. A computer
plotted graph for the isotopes of neon is shown in the following figure.

The separation of isotopes can be done by methods based on their
properties. Some important methods are: gaseous diffusion, thermal diffusion,
distillation, ultracentrifuge, electromagnetic separation and laser separation.
Fractional Atomic mass:
Atomic masses of elements are not exact numbers. Almost all elements
have fractional values of atomic masses. This is because the atomic mass of an

element is an average mass based on the number of isotopes of the element and
their natural abundance. Natural abundances of atoms are given as atomic
percentages. The mass contributed by each isotope is equal to fractional
abundance multiplied by the isotopic mass. The average or fractional atomic mass
for the element is obtained by taking the sum of the masses contributed by each
isotope.

Analysis of a compound _Empirical and molecular Formulas
Both the empirical and molecular for a compound are determined from the
percentage compositions of the compound and molecular mass of the compound
obtained experimentally . The percentage of an element in a compound is the
number of grams of the element present in 100 grams of the compound.
1.
Percentage composition of a compound whose chemical
formula is not known.
When a new compound is prepared all the elements present in the
compound are first identified by qualitative analysis. After that, the mass of
each element in a given mass of the compound is determined by quantitative
analysis. From this data, the percentage of each element in the compound is
obtained by dividing the mass of the element present in the compound by the
total mass ot the compound and when multiplying to 100.
%of an element =
x100
Once the percentage composition is determined experimentally the empirical
formula can be calculated . The molecular mass of the compound is determined by
experimental methods. From empirical formula and molecular mass , the
molecular formula for the compound is determined.
2.
Percentage Composition of a Compound whose chemical
formula is known.
The percentage composition of a compound can be determined
theoretically,that is , without doing an experiment if we know the chemical
formula of the compound .The relation which can be used for this purpose is:
%of an element =
x100
Remember that the percentage composition of a pure compound does not change.
Example2: 8.657 g of a compound were decomposed into its elements and gave
5.217 g of carbon, 0.962 of hydrogen, 2.478 g of oxygen . Calculate the percentage
composition of the compound under study.
Solution:

Mass of hydrogen =0.962 g
Mass of oxygen =2.478 g

Hence in 100 grams of the compound ,there are 60.26 grams of carbon, 11.11
grams of hydrogen and 28.62 grams of oxygen.
Empirical Formula
“ A chemical formula that gives the smallest whole number ratio of atoms
of each elements present in a compound is called an empirical formula .”
For example, in an empirical formula of a compound , A x By, there are x
atoms of element A and y atoms of element B. The empirical formula can be
determined from the percentage composition of the compound or from the
experimentally determined mass relationships of elements that make up the
compound.
Calculation of Empiriacal Formula
Empirical formula of a compound can be calculated by using the following
steps:
1.
Find the percentage composition of the compound.
2.
Find the number of gram-atoms of each element .For this purpose divide
the percentage of each element by its atoms mass.
3.
Find the atomic ratio of each element. To get this, divide the number of
gram-atoms (Moles) of each element by the smallest number of gram-atoms
(moles).
4.
Make the atomic ratio a simple whole number atomic ratio of not so
multiply it with a suitable number.
5.
Write the empirical formula having various atoms present in the above
ratio.

Empirical Formula From Combustion analysis
The empirical formula of organic compounds which only contain carbon,
hydrogen and oxygen can be determined by combustion, the two products of
combustion will be CO2 and H2O.These products of combustion are separately
collected and their masses are determined.
Combustion Analysis
A weighed sample of the organic compound is placed in the combustion
tube fitted in a furnace. An excess of pure oxygen is supplied to burn the
compound. The carbon in the compound is converted to CO 2 and hydrogen to H2O
vapors. These gases are passed through two pre-weighted absorbent tubes. One of
the tubes contain Mf(CIO4)2 which absorbs water and the other contains 50% KOH
which absorbs CO2. The increase in mass of potassium hydroxide tube gives the
mass of CO2. From these masses of CO2 and H2O and the mass of the organic
compound. the percentages of carbon and hydrogen in the compound can be
calculated by using the following formulas:
% of C=

The percentage of oxygen is obtained by the method of difference

The molecular formula of a compound can only be determined if the
empirical formula and the molecular mass of the compound are known.
Examples: H2 O2 (hydrogen peroxide) , C6 H6 (benzene ) , C6 H12 O6 ( glucose ).
The empirical formulas of hydrogen peroxide, benzene and glucose are
HO, CH and CH2 O respectively. Some of the examples of the compounds having
the same empirical and molecular formulas are: H2O, CO 2 , NH3 , CH 4 and C12 H22

Molar Volume
“The volume , 22.414 dm3 occupied by one mole of an ideal gas at STP is
called molar volume”.
With the help of this information, we can convert the mass of a gas at STP
into its volume and vice versa, Hence.

It should be remember that 22.414 dm of two gases has a different mass but the
same number of molecules. The reason is that the masses and the sizes of the
molecules do not affect the volumes.

Stoichiometry:
“ The study of the quantities relationships between reactants and products
in a balanced chemical equation is called Stoichiometry.”
It is based on the chemical equation and on the relationship between mass

Stoichiometry Amount
“The amount of any reactant or product as given by the balanced chemical
equation is called stoichiometric amount.”
Assumptions
All Stoichiometry calculations are based on the following three
assumptions:
1.
Reactants are completely converted into products.
2.
No side reaction accurse.

Limiting Reactant
“A reactant that controls the amount of the product formed in a chemical
om
reaction is called a limiting reactant.”
A limiting reactant gives the least number of moles of the product.
e.c
Generally, in carrying out chemical reactions m one of the reactants is deliberately
used in excess quantity . This quantity exceeds the amount theoretically required
fre
by the balanced chemical wquation.This is done to ensure that the other expensive
eractant is completely used up in the reaction .Sometimes, this strategy is applied
line
to increase the speedof reactions. In this way excess reactant is left behind at the
end of reaction and the other reactant in completely consumed .This reactant which
is completely used up in the reaction is Known as the limiting reactant .Once this
llon
reactant is used up , the reactant stops and no additional product is formed .Hence
the limiting reactant controls the amount of the product formed in a chemical

“The amount of the product calculated from the balanced chemical
equation is called the theoretical yield of the product .’’
It is the maximum amount of the product that can be produced by a given

Causes of less actual yield
line
In most chemical reactions, the actual yield is always less than the
theoretical yield of the product due to the following reasons:

Solution:
(a)
23g of Na
=1 mole of Na
=6.02x1023 atoms of Na
238g of U
=1 mole of U
=6.02x1023 atoms of U.
Since equal number of gram atoms(moles) of different elements contain
om
equal number of atoms. Hence , 1 mole (23g ) of sodium and 1 mole (238)g of
uranium contain equal number of atoms , i , e ,6.02x1023 atoms.
Since the atomic mass of Mg (24) is twice the atomic mass of carbon

Since the mass of one atom of Mg is twice the mass of one atom of C ,
therefore, Mg atom is twice heavier than that of carbon.

w.a
Since one mole of different compounds has the same number of molecules.
Therefore 1 mole (180g) of glucose and I mole (342g) of sucrose contain the
same number (6.02x1023)of molecules. Because one molecule of glucose , C6H12O6
contains 45 atoms whereas one molecules of glucose, C 12 H22 O11 contains 24
atoms. Therefore , 6.02x1023 molecules of glucose contain different atoms as
compound to6.02x1023 molecules of sucrose. Hence , 180 g of glucose and 342g
og sucrose have the same number of molecules but different number of atoms
present in them.

When one molecules of H2 SO4 completely ionizes in water it produces two
H+ ion and one SO ion ,.Hydrogen ion carries a unit positive charge whereas SO
ion carries a double negative charge. To keep the neutrality , the number of
hydrogen are twice than the number of soleplate ions. Similarly the ions produced

fre
K2 Cr O4 when ionizes in water produces two k+ ions one C O
each formula unit of K2 Cr O4produces three ions in solution .Hence one mg of K2

ww
w.a
molecules of CO2 at STP =22.144dm3
Although H2 , CH4 and CO2 have different masses but they have the same
number of moles and molecules . Hence the same mumber of moles or the same
number of molecules of different gases occupy the same volume at STP . Hence 2
g of H2 ,16g of CH4 and 44 g of CO2 occupy the same volume 22.414 dm3 at STP.
The masses and the sizes of the molecules do not affect the volumes.

Define yield. How do we calculate the percentage yield of a
chemical reaction?
(b)
What are the factors which are mostly responsible for the low yield
of the products in chemical reactions.
Q24: Explain the following with reasons.
(j)
Law of conservation of mass has to be obeyed during
Stoichiometric calculations.
(ii)
Many chemical reactions taking place in our surrounding
involves the limit reactants.
(iii)
No individual neon atom in the sample of the element has a mass
of 20.18amu.
(iv)
One mole of H2 SO4 should completely react with two moles of
NaOH. How does Avogadro, s number help to explain it.
(v)
One mole H2 O has two moles of bonds , three moles of atoms ,
ten moles of electrons and twenty eight moles of the total fundamental
particles present in it.
(vi)
N2 and CO have the same number of electrons, protons and
neutrons.
Ans. (i)
According to law of conservation of mass, the amount of
each element is conserved in a chemical reaction. Chemical equations
are written and balanced on the basis of law of conversation of mass.
Stoichiometry calculations are related with the amounts of reactants
and products in a balanced chemical equation. Hence, law of
conservation of mass has to be obeyed during stoichiometric
calculations.
(ii)
In our surrounding many chemical reactions are taking place
which involve oxygen. In these reactions oxygen in always in excess
quantity while other reactant are in lesser amount. Thus other
reactants act as limiting reactants.
(iii)
Since the overall atomic mass of neon in the average of the
determined atomic masses of individual isotopes present in the sample
of isotopic mixture .Hence, no individual neon atom in the sample has
a mass of 20.18amu.

it needs 2 moles of one mole of H2 SO4 should completely react with
two moles of NA OH.
Since one molecule of H2 O has two covalent bonds between H
and O atoms. Three atoms, ten electrons and twenty eight total
fundamental particles present in it. Hence, one mole of H 2 O has two
moles of bond, three moles of atoms, ten moles of electrons and
twenty eight moles of total fundamental particle present in it.
In N2 there are 2 N atoms which contain 14 electrons (2x7),14
protons (2x7) and 14 neutrons (2x7) . In CO, there are one carbon and
one oxygen atoms. It contains 14 electrons (6carbon e +8 oxygen e),
14 protons (6 C proton +8 O proton ) and 14 neutrons (6 neutrons +8
O neutrons).Hence , N2 and CO have the same number of electrons,
protons and neutrons. Remember that electrons, protons and neutrons
of atoms remain conserved during the formation of molecules in a
chemical reaction.
