Matter is anything that has mass and volume. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance. Volume is the amount of space the substance occupies. All substances—everything you own, everything you touch, even you yourself—are made of different types of matter. Atoms and Elements Atoms are the basic building blocks of most of the matter around you. There are different kinds of atoms. Each kind of atom is an element. An element is one of the basic substances that combine to form all other substances. Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means. An element is a pure substance—matter that has the same chemical composition throughout and cannot be separated by physical means. Scientists have discovered 117 elements. These elements are the building blocks of the matter around you. About 90 of these elements are found in nature. Carbon, oxygen, gold, silver, and iron are some naturally occurring elements. The remaining elements are synthetic, or made by humans in the laboratory. An atom is the smallest particle of an element that has all the properties of that element. Each element is made up of atoms that differ from those of every other element. To understand how the atoms of each element differ, you need to look at the particles that make up an atom. The picture below shows the structure of a carbon atom. Notice that this atom is made up of three different kinds of particles. Carbon Atom Neutron Proton (⫹) Electron (⫺) 10 Duplicating any part of this book is prohibited by law. Atoms and Their Parts The center of the atom is called the nucleus. The nucleus of most atoms is made up of two kinds of particles: protons and neutrons. Protons carry a positive (⫹) charge. Neutrons have no charge. The masses of protons and neutrons are measured in atomic mass units (amu). Each proton and neutron has a mass of about 1 amu. Electrons are subatomic particles that move around in an area outside the nucleus. Electrons have a negative (⫺) charge. The mass of electrons is insignificant compared to the mass of protons and neutrons. The table below compares protons, neutrons, and electrons. Characteristics of Subatomic Particles Particle Mass Charge Location Proton 1 amu ⫹1 Nucleus Neutron 1 amu 0 Nucleus Electron — ⫺1 Outside nucleus Protons and neutrons, in turn, are made up of tiny particles called quarks. Every proton or neutron consists of three quarks. Protons and neutrons are made of different combinations of quarks. Quarks are not found separately in nature. However, they can be made and observed by scientists in some labs. Elements and Subatomic Particles The properties, or characteristics, of an element are determined by the structure of its atoms. The main difference between different elements is atomic number. Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons in the nucleus is unique for each element. Therefore, no two elements have the same atomic number. Carbon, for example, has six protons and an atomic number of 6. Duplicating any part of this book is prohibited by law. Look at the carbon atom on page 10 again. Notice that the number of protons in the atom is equal to the number of electrons. Because these numbers are equal, each positive charge in the nucleus is balanced by a negative charge in the electrons around the nucleus. The atom as a whole is electrically neutral and has no overall charge. Atoms have mass. The atomic mass of an atom is equal to the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Each proton has a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu). Each neutron also has a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu). The atomic mass is determined by counting the protons and neutrons in an atom. 11 The table below gives the atomic masses of several common elements. Atomic Masses of Some Elements Element Protons Neutrons Electrons Atomic Mass Carbon (C) 6 6 6 12 amu Oxygen (O) 8 8 8 16 amu Sodium (Na) 11 12 11 23 amu Potassium (K) 19 20 19 39 amu Iron (Fe) 26 30 26 56 amu Notice the letters in parentheses next to the name of each element in the table. These letters are the chemical symbol for the element. A chemical symbol is a code, usually made up of one or two letters, used to represent an element. Each element has its own chemical symbol. C always represents carbon, Ca always represents calcium, Fe always represents iron, and so on. Atoms and subatomic particles are much tinier than the things you normally measure. This is one reason that atomic masses are given in atomic mass units. There are more than a hundred billion trillion atomic mass units in one gram. Scientists also use very small units for distances in and between atoms. For example, the radius of an oxygen atom is about 60 picometers. A picometer is one billionth of a millimeter. Even smaller units are used to measure subatomic particles. Atomic Theory Since that time, scientists have developed many different models of the atom as they have learned more about matter. A model is a representation of something that can be used to study, show, or explain how it functions. A model may be a diagram, a three-dimensional object, or a computer simulation. A model may also be an idea or a mathematical formula. All these kinds of models are used in science. Models are useful for describing atoms because atoms are too small to be seen except with powerful electron microscopes. Subatomic particles are even harder to study. In 1803, the English chemist John Dalton published a new atomic theory. He studied the way elements combined to form new substances. He kept careful records of the masses of the combining elements and the products they formed. He stated that matter in the form of elements is made of particles called atoms. These particles cannot be divided or destroyed. He also stated that atoms of the same element are alike in mass, and those of different elements differ in mass. Dalton also stated that elements combine in predictable ratios. t $IBQUFSMatter Duplicating any part of this book is prohibited by law. Atomic theory is a set of scientific principles explaining the structure and behavior of atoms. Atomic theory began in ancient Greece. Greek scientists thought that matter was made up of tiny particles, called atoms, which could not be broken into smaller particles. Lesson 1: Atoms and Elements Like the ancient Greeks, Dalton believed that an atom could not be broken down into smaller particles. Less than 100 years after Dalton published his atomic theory, another scientist made a discovery that changed this idea. Experiments done by another English scientist, J. J. Thomson, changed Dalton’s model. Thomson showed that elements can be made to give off negative particles—electrons. If atoms can give off electrons, then atoms are not indivisible. Although electrons have a negative charge, atoms do not have a charge. Thomson realized that an atom must contain positive charges to balance the negative electrons. His model described the atom as a positively charged sphere that has electrons scattered through it. Think of raisins in a muffin. The raisins are scattered throughout the muffin. This is similar to the way Thomson said electrons were scattered in the atom. In 1911, the atomic model was changed again. Ernest Rutherford, a scientist from New Zealand, studied particles given off by radioactive elements. He found that when alpha particles struck a thin piece of gold foil, most of the particles passed through the foil. Some bounced back or bounced off sideways. If matter were completely solid, all the particles would have bounced back. The fact that most particles went through the gold led Rutherford to conclude that most of the atom is empty space. What about the particles that did not pass through the gold? Rutherford said that a small part of the atom is solid and has a positive charge. This is the nucleus of the atom. Rutherford also said that the electrons circled the nucleus like tiny planets. Rutherford’s model is often called the planetary model of the atom. The next model of the atom was developed by a Danish scientist, Niels Bohr. In the Bohr model, electrons move around the nucleus in orbits called energy levels. An energy level is a region around the nucleus in which electrons with similar amounts of energy are located. Electrons in an atom can have only amounts of energy that fit one of these levels. The lower their energy, the closer the electrons are to the nucleus. In the Bohr model, electrons can shift position from one energy level to another. Higher-energy areas (those farthest from the nucleus) can hold more electrons. The Bohr model is shown below. Duplicating any part of this book is prohibited by law. Bohr Model Nucleus (contains protons (+) and neutrons) Electron (–) 13 The current model of the atom is the electron cloud model. This model was based on calculations made by the Austrian scientist Edwin Schrodinger. According to the model, electrons exist in an area around the nucleus of an atom called a “cloud.” Scientists describe electrons as existing somewhere in the electron cloud at any given time. An electron can be found anywhere within the electron cloud. Electrons in the cloud absorb and release energy. This changes their locations within the atom. When electrons move to lower levels, they emit energy. Scientists can detect the energy absorbed or emitted as light, heat, or other forms of energy. The electron cloud model explains why substances have color, release heat, or give off different types of radiation. This model is not the end, however. The atomic model will continue to change as scientists make new discoveries. Neutron Proton Nucleus Electron Electron cloud Discussion Question Lesson Review 1.
