2-1 2-2 Radioactivity AS II Rutherford Model (background info) • Scattering Experiment • high energy radiation • released by some natural materials ( U, Ra, ...) and many man-made elements (e.g., Co-60) • Subatomic Particles (Co-59 is the natural non-radioactive isotope) • • Chem. Elements primary components: α radiation, pos. heavy particles, He2+ β radiation, neg. light particles, electrons Ref 2: 4 - 6 FUP: 2: 4 EofC: 2 : 36 – 50 γ radiation, emr w/ λ ≈ 10–13 m (= 0.1 pm) ν ≈ 1021 Hz (note: X-rays might be secondary components) see Pet.

Fig. 2.10 Radioactivity 2-4 Rutherford Scattering Experiment for exp. set-up, see Pet Fig. 2.11 & 2.12; HT 2.1 & 2.2; SB 2.7 consists of: • α source • target metal foil (thin sheet; e.g. Au, ... • screen/detection system expected: minor bending of α rays (due to e– ) surprise: some α particles “bounced back” 2-5 Pet. Fig. 2.11 Experimental Set-up HT Fig. 2.1 Experimental Sep-up HT Fig. 2.2 Explanation Pet. Fig. 2.12 Explanation “Plum Pudding” 2-6 “Rutherford” 2-7 Evaluation of Rutherford Exp. 2-8 Universal Subatomic Particles atom = mostly empty space w/ tiny, “dense”, pos. center = “nucleus” & dispersed, ~ weightless, neg. particles = “electrons” approx. sizes: atom relative mass (u) relative charge e– ~0 –1 p+ ~1 +1 no ~1 0 ~ 100 pm nucleus ~ 0.01 pm “like a pea in a stadium” further investigation: nucleus = protons (p+) & neutrons (no) for exact absolute values see: Pet. Table 2.1 or SB Table 2.2 2-9 2-10 Elements • differ by # of p+’s in increments of 1: 1 ........ H 2 ........ He ........ 92 ......... U • # of no is variable (but close to # of p+) • many elements = mixture of isotopes (same # of p+ , diff # of no) e.g., Cl atoms 75.5% have 17 p+, 18 no (Cl-35) 24.5% have 17 p+, 20 no (Cl-37) 2-11 2-12 Isotopic Notation A Z X Ions cations: pos., lost e–’s anions: neg., gained e–’s (a neg. ion) e.g., 1) Cl– , gained 1 e– 2) Al3+, lost 3 e–’s has 13 p+ and 10 e–’s X ... atomic symbol A ... mass number ( p+’s + no’s) Z ... atomic number (p+’s (= e–’s, if neutral)) also: X -A 12 e.g., 6 C or C - 12 NB.(remember) Natural C consists of ≈ 99% C-12 and ≈ 1% C-13 2-13 Atomic Mass of Isotopes • means “relative atomic mass” units: “atomic mass units” = “u” • • by definition: atomic mass of C-12 = 12 u exactly 2-14 Isotopic Mixtures • Most elements exist as mixtures • on earth, composition nearly const. • Atomic masses of elements (in P.T.) = weighted avg. of natural isotopic mix. (12.00000000...) • ∴ • ∴ + Ex. Ag is 51.84% Ag-107 (106.905 u) & 48.16% Ag-109 (108.905 u) 1 u = 121 of mass of C-12 atomic mass of H-1, p+, no approx., but not exactly 1 u. o NB.: as p ’s and n ’s combine in nuclei their masses change slightly (nuclear physics) Ex. isotope subatomic particles H-2 1p 1n 1e He-4 2p 2n 2e C-12 6p 6n 6e atomic mass(u) 2.0141 4.0026 12.0000 Notes: even though the 3 of subatomic particles are whole-number multiples, the atomic masses are not; (xs mass as you go from lower to higher atoms converted to energy) ∴ atomic mass of Ag = 0.5184 × 106.905 u + 0.4816 × 108.905 u = 107.87 u NB. mass number ≠ atomic mass (average mass number is not normally used ) General Formula: x1 I1 + x2 I2 + ... = E where, x ...fraction, abundance; x1 +x2 + ... = 1 I atomic mass of isotope E ... atomic mass of “element” 2-15 Periodic Table (P.T.) • see Pet. Fig. 2.15 • used to organize elements • elements in same group (column) have similar properties etc. ...... • groups 1 ............ 18 for the time being, learn names & symbols of first 36 elements (H - Kr) 2-16 Pet.
