ATOMS The smallest unit of an element that retains properties of the element. History of the Atom John Dalton Matter is made up of atoms Atoms cannot be divided. All atoms of the same element are alike. Different elements are made of different atoms. Thomson Described atom as a positive ball with negative electrons spread evenly throughout. Rutherford Said an atom had a positive nucleus with negative electrons orbiting it- it had NO NEUTRONS. History of Atom continuedElectron Cloud Model Electrons form a cloud around the nucleus. Bohr Bohr’s model had a nucleus containing protons and neutrons. The electrons orbited on energy levels. This is the model we use in class. This is the accepted model and allows for the unpredictable wave nature of electrons. Atomic Structure The smallest unit of an element is an atom. (Anything smaller is not an atom!) Atoms have 3 structural parts Protons Neutrons Electrons Protons Atomic number Have a positive charge Are located in the nucleus Chemical symbol Give an atom its identity Element Equal to the atomic number Atomic mass Neutrons Have NO charge (NEUTRAL) Are located in the nucleus Mass = protons + neutrons ● Round the atomic mass to nearest whole number (14.007 to 14) ● Subtract the number of protons from the mass (14 - 7) ● There are 7 neutrons To determine the number of neutrons, subtract the number of protons (atomic number) from the atomic massThe NEWS about atomsNEUTRAL NEUTRONS are in the NUCLEUS! Electrons Smallest, lightest particle Located outside the nucleus in the electron cloud Equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom (6th grade assumes all atoms are neutral) Negatively charged When drawing an atom, each shell or energy level is ONE row on the periodic table. (Row 1 has 2 elements- Energy level 1 has 2 electrons. Row 2 has 8 elements - Energy level 2 has 8 electrons.) Let’s Practice!

Elements Simplest form of matter Made up of only ONE type of atom Atoms of an element are basically alike (ALWAYS have the same number of PROTONS), but the number of NEUTRONS may vary (ISOTOPES) Can be represented by a chemical symbol. (Chemical symbols are 1 - 2 letters. The first is always CAPITALIZED and second is LOWER-CASE) Isotopes of Hydrogen Atomic Number 1 Atomic Mass 1 Atomic Number 1 Atomic Mass 2 Atomic Number 1 Atomic Mass 3 Most Common Elements There are a little over 100 elements found in nature. A limited number of those form the largest part of Earth’s crust, living matter, the oceans, and the atmosphere. Water- hydrogen and oxygen Air- nitrogen and oxygen Living things- carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen Most common elements are- aluminum, calcium, carbon, hydrogen, iron, magnesium, nitrogen, oxygen, potassium, silicon, sodium Earth’s crust- oxygen, aluminum, and silicon
