Last Time: The Atomic Mass is NOT
the Same as the Mass Number
• represents a particular isotope of an element.
• gives the mass number in the upper left corner
and the atomic number in the lower left corner.
Listed on the periodic table
Example:
Example: An atom of sodium with atomic
number 11 and a mass number 23 has the
following atomic symbol:

Why Do We Care About Isotopes?
Answer: Nuclear Stability!
Radiation Primer: Subatomic
Particles Revisited
Radiation comes from nucleus of an atom
Unstable nucleus emits a particle or energy
“belt of stability”
protons and/or neutrons typically lost from nucleus
changing identity of element
Unstable nuclei
α alpha (particle)
Radioactive
Can decay to
release alpha
particles, beta
particles and
positrons.

γ gamma (pure energy)

Medical Uses of Radiation
Diagnostic Methods
Radioisotopes behave chemically the
same as stable isotopes of the same
atom
Thus, can use to target an organ or a
physiological process
Usually γ-emitters because radiation
has to emerge from the body if the
imaging equipment is to see it
Nuclear medicine has two main arenas
Diagnostic methods
Small amounts of radioisotopes
administered to help image an organ or
follow a physiological process
Therapeutic methods
Larger radiation doses to deliver fatal
punch to diseased tissue

of detectors to see the paired, 180o gamma rays
With annihilation event, a pair of gamma
rays are emitted in opposite directions

organic compounds to follow
Blood flow

Therapeutic Radiation
Therapeutic Radiation
Can also deliver a radiation dose with
an internal administration of selected
isotopes
I-131 targets thyroid cancer - thyroxine
contains iodine
I-125 crystals implanted in prostate
gland to deliver continuous radiation (t1/2
= 60 days)
Y-90 implanted in pituitary to slow tumor
growth everywhere
Selective destruction of pathological
cells and tissues
Rapidly dividing cells most vulnerable thus it targets cancer
Used when cancer is not well localized
CoCo-60 is common source of xx-rays and
γ-rays

Radio-Tracer Compounds
Huge use of radioisotopes to study
chemical reactions
Can see 10-19g/L - almost individual
atoms
Photosynthesis - carbon in glucose
comes from CO2
Calcium - uptake is 90% efficient in
children; 40% efficient in adults
Zinc - uptake by trees in winter 2 ft/day

Atomic Spectra
Characteristics of Electrons
Atoms can absorb and emit radiation
Absorption
Usually, a source of white light passes
through a sample, and the atoms absorb only
specific frequencies of light.
Emission
When excited atoms emit photons, the
frequencies of the photon are specific.
specific.
“quantization of energy”
Extremely small mass
Located outside the nucleus
Moving at extremely high speeds
roughly in a sphere
Form the “glue” that holds
compounds together
Have specific energy levels

Explanation for Discrete
Energies: the Bohr Model
Line Spectra & the Bohr Model
First model of the electron structure of atoms
Gives levels where an electron is most likely to
be found
Incorrect today, but a key in understanding the
atom
Bohr Model
• Bohr noted the line spectra of certain elements
and assumed the electrons were confined to
specific energy states. These were called orbits.
25
Quantum Mechanics
26
Electron Levels (Shells)
Describes the arrangement of electrons in
atoms in terms of:
Main or principal energy levels (n)
Can describe electrons with “quantum
numbers”
Energy subshells
Orbitals (space occupied within the atom)
27
Contain electrons that are similar in energy
and distance from nucleus
Low energy electrons are closest to the
nucleus
Identify by numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6…..
The first shell (1) is lowest in energy, 2nd level
next and so on 1<2<3<4

Orbitals: “Locations” of the Electrons
s Orbitals
An s orbital
• has a spherical shape around
the nucleus.
• is found in each energy level.
• threethree-dimensional spaces around a nucleus
where an electron is most likely to be found.
• have shapes that represent electron density
(not a path the electron follows).

n=3
n=2
• each orbital can hold up to 2 electrons.

Periodic Law
All the elements in a group have the same
electron configuration in their outermost shells
Outermost electrons are called valence electrons
Elements with same # of valence electrons

Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids
The heavy zigzag line
separates metals and
nonmetals.
• Metals are located to
the left.
• Nonmetals are located
to the right.
• Metalloids are located
along the heavy
zigzag line between
the metals and
nonmetals.
Metals, Nonmetals, & Metalloids
Metals
• shiny and ductile
• good conductors of heat and electricity
Nonmetals
• dull, brittle, and poor conductors
• good insulators
Metalloids
• better conductors than nonmetals, but not as
good as metals
• used as semiconductors and insulators

Atomic Radius Within A Group
How Atomic Orbital filling affects:
Atomic Size (Radius)
Ionization Energy
Atomic radius increases
going down each group
of representative
elements.
Definitions….
Atomic Radii: Distance between center of
nucleus and outer electron shell
Ionization Energy : Cost of removing an efrom a neutral atom

Atomic Radius Across a Period
Ionization Energy In a Group
Going across a period left to right,
• an increase in number of protons increases attraction
for valence electrons.
• atomic radius decreases.
decreases.
Going up a group of
representative elements,
• the distance decreases
between nucleus and
valence electrons.
• the ionization energy
increases.
