Define an atom as the smallest piece of matter retaining elemental properties. 2. Summarize Dalton’s Atomic Theory and relate this theory to models of atoms and compounds learned in Unit 1. 3. Describe the atomic theories of Thomson, Rutherford, and Bohr and relate experimental evidence to the model of the atom. 4. Discuss the structure of an atom including location of the protons, electrons, and neutrons in relation to the nucleus 2 NOTES: Atom: smallest particle of an element that retains its properties. Atoms are so small we have special microscopes to see them. These pictures of groups of carbon atoms were taken with a TEM (Tunneling Electron Microscope) and an AFM (Atomic Force Microscope). Notice the scale bar (small black line in lower right of picture). That line represents 2 nm (that’s 2 nanometers.) If one nanometer equals 1x10-9 meters… Then 62,500,000 of these pictures would fit in one meter! That’s REALLY small!! The Atom – Background & History A summary of the models of the Atomic Jig-Saw Activity we did in class… 1. The Ancient Greeks Propose a Good Idea - Democritus: a. He was a Greek smart guy (a philosopher, a thinker) who suggested an indivisible form of matter. b. He did no “science.” Testing of a good idea did not occur. ATOMIC MODEL SKETCH: 2. Rediscovering a Good Idea: Dalton and Atoms (1766-1844): a. He proposed that all elements are composed of a “smallest particle” that could not be further subdivided. b. He suggested that all atoms of the same element are identical. c. He noted that atoms of different elements can combine with each other in simple, whole number ratios to form compounds. (Some simple compounds were known about by the early 1800’s. Among the first was ammonia – NH3) d. Recall particle diagrams: 3 Chemical reactions (aka “chemical changes”) occur when atoms/molecules are: 1.) separated: **Note that the atoms themselves remain unchanged!** 2.) joined: 3.) rearranged: ATOMIC MODEL SKETCH: (Think of a BILLIARD BALL!) 3. Discovery of Subatomic Particles…Dalton’s Undoing… a. b. c. Starting in the late 1800’s, particles smaller than atoms were being detected in experiments. Eventually, this collection of particles was referred to as “sub-atomic” (smaller than atomic) particles. These particles are called electrons, protons and neutrons today. Discovering Electrons: Thomson (1897): Experimented with Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs) e- + A CRT is similar to your TV. It has an anode (A Negative electrODE) and a cathode (A positive electrode). These are enclosed in an evacuated (air removed) glass container and when a charge is applied, the electrons flow from anode to cathode through the open space of the glass container. Thomson observed these particles and determined that the particles: Move at a very high speed (about 10% the speed of light) Have a negative charge Have a mass of about 1/2000 of a hydrogen atom (hydrogen is the smallest atom) Were the same regardless of which gas was used in the container or the metal used as the electrode 4 The “plum pudding model” attempted to explain atomic structure once the electron (e- or e) had been discovered. An atom, according to this model, was a cluster of small positive and negative charges. ATOMIC MODEL SKETCH: (Think of a CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFIN!) Discovering Protons – The Nucleus: Rutherford (1911): Performed the Gold Foil Experiment View the online simulations of Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment & make observations: 1. http://www.mhhe.com/physsci/chemistry/essentialchemistry/flash/ruther14.swf 2.http://www.physics.upenn.edu/courses/gladney/phys351/classes/Scattering/Rutherford_Scattering.html a. Observation #1 – Conclusion #1 – **He called this the nucleus. b. Observation #2 – Conclusion #2 – Real-life relation of “mostly empty space”: If the nucleus is a marble/pea at midfield, the closest electron is at the goal post! What Rutherford expected to see, based on Thompson’s chocolate chip muffin model What Rutherford really saw. Why did some alpha particles bounce back? How did this change the model of the atom? 5 ATOMIC MODEL SKETCH: (Think of a PEACH!) Discovering Neutrons: Chadwick (1932): a. Subatomic particle with no charge. (Hard to find without a charge!) b. The nucleus is now considered to be composed of protons and neutrons. c. This realization led to the “nuclear age” in the 1940s. 4. Bohr (Planetary) Model: a. Rutherford proposed atoms had a positively charged nucleus, with negatively charged electrons orbiting around it. The only problem: He could not explain why the electrons would not just spiral into the nucleus (since opposite charges attract). b. Bohr used data from atomic spectra to propose a soluton to the flaw in Rutherford’s model c.Electrons must exist in fixed, stable orbits (or energy levels), which are at a specific distance from the nucleus. ATOMIC MODEL SKETCH: (Think of an ONION!) 5. Modern Model: (Think of a FAN!) a. aka - Quantum Mechanical Model, Wave Model, Wave Mechanical Model, Cloud Model, Electron Cloud Model b. There is a probability for finding the electron in regions of space chemists today call “orbitals.” 6 Assignment #1 -Discoveries 1.

Topic 2: Teachers Sign-Off: ___________________ 9 **TOPIC 3** Subatomic Particles & Isotopes You Should Know/Understand OR Be Able To Do: 1. Use atomic number and mass number of an element to find the number of protons, electrons, and neutrons in a particular atom. 2. State how isotopes of an atom differ. 3. Interpret and write isotopic notation. NOTES: There are two different naturally occurring types of chlorine atoms, represented by Cl-35 and Cl-37. What is the difference between these two?! Isotopes = “Iso-” is a prefix that means… So… What are three things that are the same between atoms that are isotopes? What are two things that are different? Remember: 1. The number of protons defines the element. 2. The number of neutrons determines which isotope of a given element you have. ISOTOPES AND ATOMIC MASS 1. Atomic Mass: We need to differentiate between atomic mass and mass (number) of an atom! Atomic Mass - Mass Number - 10 2. Look at a Periodic Table....Atomic mass is given to a number of decimal places. This is because, in most cases, there are a number of naturally occurring isotopes. For example: A natural sample of C (atomic mass = 12.011 amu) is a mixture of C-12 (98.89%) and C-14 (1.11%). A natural sample of N (atomic mass = 14.007) is a mixture of N-14 (99.63%) and N-15 (0.37%). Consider the following periodic table information for carbon: [Notice on this symbol that the location of the atomic mass and the atomic number seem to be reversed from how it shown on the Periodic Table in our reference tables. Be OK with that… the atomic mass is always the number that is bigger in value, regardless of whether it is above or below the symbol. European and Canadian charts show it this way.] Carbon's atomic number is 6, has an average atomic mass of 12.011 amu, and carbon's most common isotope has a mass number of 12 amu. Therefore, the most common type of carbon atom has 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons. Another naturally-occurring isotope of carbon is C-14, but it is rare in comparison to the amount of C12 in nature.

Yet, hydrogen as an element has an atomic mass on the periodic table of 1.0079 amu. Which isotope of hydrogen must be the most abundant, based on this data? 11 Assignment #3: Isotope Chart Complete this chart to test your ability to work with isotope symbols.

Rutherford concluded that: 9.A few of the alpha particles were deflected backward. Rutherford concluded that: Topic 3: Teachers Sign-Off: ___________________ **TOPIC 4** Calculating the Atomic Mass from Mass and Abundance of Isotopes NOTES: The atomic mass values listed on the periodic table are what are known as “weighted” averages of the naturally occurring masses of the isotopes. You are somewhat familiar with the notion of a weighted average. Many of your course grades are determined this way. If your teacher says to you “tests are worth 50% of your grade, HW 30%, etc” then this is an average calculated by giving each category a particular “weighting” or “percentage” value in the calculation of the grade. For atomic mass calculations, the “weighting” given a particular isotope is the “percent abundance” of that isotope in a natural sample. Obviously, the isotope that is most prevalent in a natural sample of an element has the most effect on the calculation of atomic mass for that element. For example, copper has 2 naturally occurring isotopes, Cu-63 and Cu-65. The atomic mass of Cu is 63.546 amu. Therefore we may rightfully conclude that Cu-63 is the more abundant isotope.

Calculate the average atomic mass. 49.946*amu(.0435) + 51.941amu*(.8379) + 52.941amu*(.0950) + 53.939amu*(.0236) = average amu 2.1727 amu + 43.521 amu + 5.0294 amu + 1.2730 amu = 51.996 amu 13 Assignment #5: Calculating Average Atomic Masses Isotopes Solve the following: 1.

Calculate the average atomic mass of chlorine. 14 IONS When neutral atoms lose or gain electrons they become ions. If a neutral atom gains one or more electrons there is an overall increase in negative charges. Negative ions are called anions. Notice how the size of the fluoride ion is larger than the fluorine atom: If a neutral atom loses one or more electrons there is an overall increase in positive charges. Positive ions are called cations. Notice how the calcium ion is smaller than the calcium atom: Topic 4: Teachers Sign-Off: ___________________ 15 **TOPIC 5** Review Materials Assignment # 6 Atomic Structure Drill 1.
