Alchemist’s Dream Review (1 of 2)
Q: How do you tell if it is really gold?
• Archimedes Principle: Determine the volume by
displacement and then confirm the density.
Q: What did the salty vinegar do?
• Dark pennies have black CuO oxidation.
• Acid in vinegar & salt reduce the Cu+2 back to Cu0 to
reshine the penny.
Q: How did the pennies turn silver?
• Zinc plates on the outside of the copper.
Q: How did they turn to gold in the flame?
• Heating melts the zinc into the copper to form brass!
Alchemist’s Dream Review (2 of 2)
Q: Was the removal of black CuO a chemical or physical
change?
A: It chemically changed from black copper salt to
metallic copper.
Q: Is brass a mixture or a compound?
A: Brass is a mixture and an alloy.
Q: Is the mixture homogeneous or heterogeneous?
A: Ours varied by depth and color. So they were
heterogeneous. Manufacturers produce homogeneous
brass.
Development of Atomic
Theory
History of the atom
• Not the history of atom, but the idea of the
atom.
• Original idea Ancient Greece (400 B.C.)
• Democritus and Leucippus- Greek
philosophers.
John Dalton
• British
• A small town
school teacher at
the age of 12.
• Introduced his
atomic theory in
1803.
Previous Findings
1. Law of Conservation of Mass
Matter is neither created or destroyed in a
chemical reaction. (Antoine Lavoisier)
2. Law of Definite Proportions
The percentage by mass of elements in a
compound is constant for any sample. Ex: H2O
3. Law of Multiple Proportions
Compounds composed of the same two
elements differ in one element by simple ratios.
Ex: CO vs CO2; H2O vs H2O2
Law of Definite Proportions
• Each compound has a
specific ratio of elements.
• It is a ratio by mass.
• Water has a mass of 18 grams
hydrogen 2 atoms x 1.0 grams
oxygen 1 atom x 16 grams
• The ratio is always 8 grams of oxygen
for each gram of hydrogen
(2 g H to 16 g O or 1 g H to 8 g O).
Law of Multiple Proportions
• Two elements or more elements may form
more than one compound if they have
different whole number ratio of each
element.
• Example: water
H2O
hydrogen peroxide
H2O2
Daltons Atomic Theory
1. All matter is composed of tiny indivisible
particles called atoms
2. All atoms of the same element are identical
3. Different elements have different types of
atoms
4. Compounds are formed from simple
combinations of atoms of different elements.
5. In a chemical reaction atoms are simply
rearranged.
*Activity: Ball & Stick Reactions
Picture Dalton’s Atomic Theory
Updates to Dalton’s Theory
1a. Atoms are divisible into protons,
neutrons & electrons (& even smaller!).
1b. In nuclear decay they actually fall
apart!
2. All atoms of a single element have the
same number of protons, but not
neutrons. (isotopes)
4. Compounds may be very complex!
Dalton’s Atomic Theory Quiz
1. What year was his theory published?
2. Which previous finding defined
compounds as having consistent percent
compositions?
3. How did Dalton describe chemical
reactions?
4. How can atoms of the same element be
different?

electrode on bottom.
(DPath?)
Observation: The
cathode rays were

Thomson’s Experiment #3
• Setup: Cathode rays
•
•
were placed in a
magnetic field.
Observation:
Cathode rays are bent
perpendicular to the
magnetic field.
Interpretation:
Cathode rays are not
a form of light.
Thomson’s Experiment #4
• Setup: A glass wheel was placed on a
level track inside the cathode ray tube.
• Observation: Cathode rays can rotate the
glass wheel.
• Interpretation: Cathode rays are particles
with mass.
Thomson Experiment #5
• Setup: Thomson made cathode ray tubes
with a variety of different gases & metal
electrodes in the tube.
• Observation: Every tube produced the
same cathode rays.
• Interpretation: Cathode rays are
fundamental to matter. He called cathode
rays “electrons!” Discovered in 1897.
Thomson’s Plum Pudding Model
• Thomson concluded
•
that all atoms must
have negative
charges and positive
charges to balance
them.
Thomson assumed
that (+) & (-) charges
would be evenly
distributed.
Thomson’s Atomic Model
Thomson believed that the electrons were like plums
embedded in a positively charged “pudding,” thus it
was called the “plum pudding” model.
Uses of cathode rays
• 1. A cathode ray tube (CRT) is widely used in research laboratories
to convert any signal (electrical, sound, etc) into visual signals.
These are called CRT or oscilloscopes.
• 2. CRT is the basic component in all television and computer
screens. The signals are sent to the vertical and horizontal
deflecting plates, which produce a pattern on the fluorescent
screen.
• High energy cathode rays when stopped suddenly produce X-rays.
The X-rays have many medical and research applications.
Thomson’s Atomic Theory Quiz
1. How did Thomson know that the rays
came from the cathode?
2. What did Thomson conclude from
cathode rays being bent by a magnet?
3. How did Thomson know cathode rays
were fundamental to matter?

Scintillation screen of

when hit.
Rutherford’s Prediction
Positive alpha particles
would go straight
through or have
minor deflections due
to the electrons
embedded in a sea of
positively charged
matter.
Rutherford’s Observations
Interpreting the Results
• Most positive alpha particles went straight through or were slightly
•
•
•
deflected.
Therefore the atom is mostly empty space.
A few positive alpha particles bounced back radically!
Thus the atom must have a large concentration of positive charge!
Rutherford’s Atomic Model
Development of the Bohr Model
• In 1913 Danish
•
physicist Neils Bohr
proposed a new model
of the atom.
Bohr’s Model explained
the emission and
absorption patterns of
light discovered by
Bunsen in flames &
lamps.
Emission Lamps
Emission Spectra
• Each element emits a unique set of bright line wavelengths.

4 Principles of the Bohr Model
1)Electrons assume only certain orbits around the
nucleus. These orbits are stable and called
"stationary" orbits.
2)Each orbit has an energy associated with it. The
lowest energy levels are close to the nucleus.
The farther from the nucleus corresponds to
higher energy levels. Electrons tend to occupy
the lowest energy levels available.
3)Light is emitted when an electron jumps from a
higher orbit to a lower orbit. Light is absorbed
when it jumps from a lower to higher orbit.
4)The quantity of energy and wavelength of light
emitted or absorbed is given by the difference
between the two orbit energies. (Quantum
Leaps!)
• With these conditions
•
•
Bohr was able to
explain the stability of
atoms as well as the
emission spectrum of
hydrogen.
Line spectra correspond
to quantum leaps
between levels of
specific energies.
Violet light corresponds
to high energy
quantum leaps while
red light corresponds to
low energy. ROYGBIV

Excited vs Ground States
• Light is absorbed when electrons jump up to
•
•
•
higher “excited” energy levels.
Light is emitted when electrons jump back down
to their lowest energy “ground” state energy
levels.
Animated Absorption & Emission
Fluorescent lights are constantly exciting gas
atoms to emit light by passing a stream of
electrons through the interior gas.

can be identified

Nuclear Reactions
• Radioactivity results from changes in
atomic nuclei.
• Fission – splitting of a large nucleus into
smaller pieces releases energy.
• Fusion – small nuclei join to make a larger
nucleus and release energy. (PS1, Ch25)
• Energy is released when a small amount
of mass converts to energy as E = mc2.
Fusion of Hydrogen Isotopes
• At high temperatures
and pressures, 2
nuclei may collide and
form a bigger nucleus.
• This example produces
helium and a stray
neutron.
• Stars are fueled by the
energy released by
fusion which also
builds atoms of
increasing sizes in
their cores.
Fission of Uranium
• A neutron splits the
•
•
•
nucleus.
The fragments include:
– 2 different smaller
atoms,
– 3 more neutrons.
The 3 neutrons can split
more atoms.
If every fission splits 3
more atoms, the
reaction will multiply out
of control!

½ Lives
• Each radio-isotope decays at a characteristic
•
•
•
•
rate.
The decay rate is determined by the time that it
takes for ½ of the radio-isotope nuclei to break
down by fission.
Each ½ life reduces the remaining number of
radioactive atoms by ½.
The number remaining approaches but never
reaches zero.
Example: Iodine 131 has a ½ life of 8 days.

• Q:What are some health effects of the element uranium?
• A:The toxicity of uranium has been under study for over 50 years,
including life-span studies in small animals. Depleted uranium and
natural uranium both consist primarily of the uranium isotope 238U.
They are only very weakly radioactive and are not hazardous
radioactive toxicants, but uranium is a weak chemical poison that
can seriously damage the kidneys at high blood concentrations.
Virtually all of the observed or expected effects are from
nephrotoxicity associated with deposition in the kidney tubules and
glomeruli damage at high blood concentrations of uranium. The
ionizing radiation doses from depleted and natural uranium are very
small compared to potential toxic effects from uranium ions in the
body (primarily damage to kidney tubules).

Electrons & Standing Waves
1. Electrons don’t move in straight lines;
they move as waves.
2. Electron microscopes allow us to see flies
eyes since electron wavelengths are
shorter than visible light waves.
3. Electrons orbiting a positive nucleus
settle into low energy standing waves
4. Demo – Standing waves
Orbitals
1. Electron wave orbits are
too complicated to
track.
2. Chemists describe their
probable location as
clouds.
3. Orbitals are defined as
the space they occupy
90% of the time.
4. Demo: Electrons
occupy orbitals like fan
blades
Orbital Demos
1. Electrons move so fast they occupy
space like fan blades!
2. The most stable patterns for electron
wave motions are standing waves!
3. *Electrons move fastest passing the
nucleus and spend little time there.

Development of the Periodic Table (1 of 2)
• Periodic Law – When elements are
arranged in increasing atomic number,
their chemical & physical properties show
a periodic pattern.
• Dobereiner grouped the elements into
triads with similar chemical properties.
• Newlands arranged the elements by
increasing atomic mass and observed the
Law of Octaves where elements of similar
properties occurred every 8th element.
Development of the Periodic Table (2 of 2)
• Mendeleev arranged the elements by increasing
•
•
•
mass & similar properties in 1872.
Mendeleev suggested that atomic masses that
were out of line with the similar properties
needed to be remeasured.
Mendeleev accurately predicted the existence
and properties of elements yet to be discovered.
Moseley discovered a pattern in the spectral
lines of elements which corresponded to the
atomic number and number of protons.

Periodic Trends
• Trends in atomic radius, ionization energy, &
•
•
•
•
electronegativity are determined by:
The number of energy levels present.
The attraction between the positive nucleus and
the outer shell electrons.
Interfering “shielding” by electrons on inner
shells.
How close an atom is to completing the stable
octet of outer “valence” electrons.
Atomic Radius (1 of 3)
• Alkali metals are the largest atoms.
• Noble gases are the smallest atoms.
Atomic Radius (2 of 3)
Atomic radius
trends:
1) Atomic radius
increases
down a group
or column.
2) Atomic radius
decreases
across a
period or row.
Atomic Radius (3 of 3)
How do we explain the trends?
1. Atomic radius increases down a group:
•
•
Each row adds an energy level.
Interior electrons interfere with attraction of
valence electrons toward the nucleus
“shielding effect”
2. Atomic radius decreases across a row
even while the atomic number increases:
•
While in the same energy level, the nucleus
becomes more positive & attractive.
• Ionization – Removal of electrons produces +
•
•
•
charges & shrinks radius.

Ionization Energy (1 of 4)
• Ionization energy is
•
the energy required
to remove a
negative electron
and leave an atom
with a positive
charge – as an ion.
Occurs in solar
cells, geiger
counters & smoke
detectors with
Amerecium 241
Ionization Energy (2 of 4)
• Alkali metals lose their electrons most easily.
• Noble gases hold their electrons most tightly.
Ionization Energy (3 of 4)
• Removing an
•
electron
becomes more
difficult across
a row.
Removing
electrons
becomes easier
down a column.
Ionization Energy (4 of 4)
• Removing electrons is more difficult across a
•
•
row as the nuclear attractions become stronger.
Removing electrons is easier down a column as
each additional energy level increases the
distance from the nucleus and weakens the
nuclear attraction.
Repulsive shielding by interior electrons also
decreases the attraction for each added level.
Electronegativity (1 of 3)
• Electro-
negativity is
the ability of
an atom to
attract
electrons
that are
shared in a
covalent
bond.
Electronegativity (2 of 3)
• What are the trends in electronegativity?
Electronegativity (3 of 3)
• Electronegativity
•
•
increases up & to
the right.
This trend
corresponds to
stronger
attractions to the
nucleus.
Less shielding
effect strengthens
attractions to the
nucleus in upper
rows.
