ATOMS AND THE PERIODIC TABLE chapter three FOCUS ACTIVITY 1 METAL Copper USE Money PROPERTY durable ATOMIC THEORY - history 4TH CENTURY B.C. Matter is made of tiny particles called ATOMS. John DALTON EARLY 1900’s (1913) MID 1900’s Modern (after 1925) theory ELEMENTS are made of particles called atoms. ATOMS of the same elements are alike. ATOMS form molecules. ELECTRONS orbit like planets in the solar system. ATOMIC THEORY - STRUCTURE MODEL OF THE ATOM ENERGY LEVELS ELECTRON - NUCLEUS PROTON + NEUTRON (NEUTRAL) ATOMIC STRUCTURE ELECTRON LOCATION Electrons are found in energy levels of an atom. Electrons occupy the lowest energy level available. Bohr’s Atom and Energy Levels Energy Levels are like ladder rungs… GAINING ENERGY GOOD BETTER Energy Levels ORBITALS – where the _____ are located within an energy level. S orbital (Like a sphere) may contain up to 2 electrons first energy level is an s orbital 1s and 2s orbitals P orbital (Like a dumbbell) may contain up to 2 electrons second energy level may contain an s orbital and up to 3 p orbitals Orbitals _____ electrons are located in the outermost energy level of an atom. They determine the chemical properties of an element. 3.2 A TOUR OF THE PERIODIC TABLE • Properties of elements change in a regular pattern that the table helps to describe. • Periods – • Groups(families) - Los Alamos National Laboratory: Periodic Table Traditional Periodic Table A Spiral Vision of the Periodic Table of the Elements The number of protons in an atom determines an element’s location on the table. Los Alamos National Laboratory: Periodic Table ATOMIC NUMBER 6 PROTONS (and ELECTRONS too) SYMBOL NAME MASS C Carbon 12.001 PROTONS + NEUTRONS MASS # 1 1 PROTONS AND NEUTRONS HAVE EQUAL MASS. ELECTRONS ARE TINY – 1800 EQUAL ONE PROTON. 1800 1 MASS ATOMIC NUMBER 35 Cl 17 protons _?_ electrons _?_ neutrons _?_ IONS are atoms that have lost or gained an ___. • ELECTRON GAINED = NEGATIVE CHARGE (-) ELECTRON LOST = POSITIVE CHARGE (+) Electron transfer Na+ Cl TWO KINDS OF IONS: A (+) CHARGED ION IS A ____. A (-) CHARGED ION IS AN ___. EXAMPLES: • LITHIUM • FLUORIDE The atoms of an element always have the same number of protons. BUT….. The atoms of an element may have different numbers of neutrons. This is an ISOTOPE! Two carbon ISOTOPES: CARBON 12 = 6 protons and 6 neutrons CARBON 14 = 6 protons and 8 neutrons The AVERAGE MASS of an ATOM • Why is the mass number not an even number? – Atoms of the same element exist with different numbers of neutrons. – This makes the mass of different atoms of the same element different. – The average mass is a weighted number so that more common isotopes have a greater affect on the average than rare isotopes. • What is an amu? – It is an “atomic mass unit”. – An amu is equivalent to the mass of 1/12 of a carbon-12 atom. 3.3 FAMILIES OF ELEMENTS: • HAVE THE SAME VALENCE NUMBER. • HAVE SIMILAR CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES. • A COLUMN OF ELEMENTS IS A FAMILY. TWO MAJOR DIVISIONS • METALS • NONMETALS GROUP ONE: ALKALI METALS • VERY REACTIVE • ONE VALENCE ELECTRON GROUP TWO: ALKALINE EARTH METALS • TWO VALENCE ELECTRONS GROUP 3-12: TRANSITION METALS • MANY COMMON METALS • NOT AS REACTIVE AS OTHER METALS GROUP 17: HALOGENS • VERY REACTIVE • FORM SALTS WITH ALKALI METALS • 7 VALANCE ELECTRONS GROUP 18: NOBLE GASES • INERT / UNREACTIVE • EIGHT VALENCE ELECTRONS SYNTHETIC ELEMENTS • They are man-made and radioactive. • They include all elements above #92, plus #43 and #61. SEMICONDUCTORS (METALOIDS). The elements that are between the metals and nonmetals are known as: SEMICONDUCTORS (METALOIDS) They may exhibit metallic and nonmetallic properties. B Si Ge As 3.4 USING MOLES TO COUNT ATOMS • Some counting units: – – – – Reams of paper Dozens of eggs Atomic mass units of protons and neutrons Moles of atoms • A mole is the SI unit that describes the amount of a substance. • Avogadro’s constant is the number of particles in one mole which = 6.022 x1023 • molar mass is the mass in grams of one mol of a substance…it is equal to the average atomic number of an atom.
