September 30, 2014 History of the Atom • We know today that all matter is composed of atoms. • Atoms: basic unit of matter. Atoms are the smallest particle of an element that retains its identity. How did scientists figure out the structure of the atom? Can you just "look" at it? September 30, 2014 (Democritus) • 460-370 B.C. • He hypothesized that all matter is composed of tiny indestructible units called atoms. • Atoms and voids • Atoms are solid. • Different shapes = different properties. • Not based on scientific method. Atomos = indestructible http://home.wlu.edu/~mahonj/Ancient_Philosophers/Atomists.htm September 30, 2014 John Dalton • 1766-1844 • English chemist and a schoolteacher • Used the scientific method to study Democritus's ideas > Proposed his Atomic Theory http://www.biography.com/people/johndalton-9265201 September 30, 2014 Dalton's Atomic Theory (1808) 1. All matter is made of indestructible particles called atoms. September 30, 2014 Dalton's Atomic Theory (1808) 2. All atoms of the same element are identical. September 30, 2014 Dalton's Atomic Theory (1808) 3. Atoms cannot be created or destroyed in chemical reactions: They just rearrange. 4. Law of definite proportions: In a chemical reaction, atoms of one element combine with atoms of other elements to form compounds in whole ratios. + September 30, 2014 J. J. Thomson • 1856-1940 • English physicist • Cathode ray tube experiment http://wps.prenhall.com/wps/media/objects/602/616516/Media_Assets/Chapter02/Text_Images/FG02_03.JPG September 30, 2014 J. J. Thomson • Cathode rays are rays emitted when high voltage is applied between two electrodes in an evacuated glass tube. • Observations: > The cathode ray is deflected by a magnetic field. > The cathode ray is repelled by a negative electric field. > The cathode ray is the same kind of negative particle no matter what metal is used. September 30, 2014 J. J. Thomson • Conclusions: > Cathode rays are streams of negatively charged particles. – Discovered first subatomic particle: electrons. > Determined the charge to mass ratio (e/me) JJ Thomson knew that an atom is neither positively or negatively charged (neutral) and contains electrons. What model of the atom explains J. J. Thomson's findings? How do you think he conceptualized the atom? September 30, 2014 William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) • Plum pudding model (or chocolate chip ice cream) > Uniform "pudding" of positive charge with electrons scattered throughout. > Total charge is neutral. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_pudding http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plum_pudding_model September 30, 2014 Ernest Rutherford • 1871-1937 • New Zealand physicist • Gold foil experiment http://staff.norman.k12.ok.us/~cyohn/index_files/atom1notes.htm September 30, 2014 Ernest Rutherford • Observations: > Most of the alpha ( α) particles (positively charged particles) passed straight through the foil. > Some were deflected at slight angles, a few even backwards. Can this happen with the plum pudding model? What is a better model for the atom? September 30, 2014 Ernest Rutherford • Conclusions: > Atom is mostly empty space. > Atom's mass is concentrated at the center (nucleus) > Nucleus has a positive charge-made of protons http://myweb.usf.edu/~mhight/goldfoil.html September 30, 2014 James Chadwick Discovered neutrons--a particle in the nucleus with no charge (neutral) http://www.tvguide.com/tvshows/the-adventures-of-jimmy-neutron-boy-genius/photos/195915 September 30, 2014 Robert Milikan • 1868-1953 • Oil drop experiment > Suspended negatively charged oil droplets between two charged plates. > Calculated how strong an applied electric field has to be to stop the drop from falling due to gravity. September 30, 2014 Robert Milikan • He noticed that the charge was always a multiple of -1.60 x 10-19 Coulombs. • Conclusions: The charge of an electron is -1.60 x 10-19 Coulombs. September 30, 2014 We know much more now than Dalton did when he first described his "Atomic theory". Some of the laws still hold true: • Law of Conservation of Mass-In a chemical reaction, atoms (and therefore mass) are never lost or gained, only rearranged. • Law of Definite Proportions (constant composition)-in a pure compound, the proportions of elements by mass are always the same.
