Modern Chemistry Chapter 3 Atoms: the building block of matter 1 Chapter Vocabulary Law of conservation of mass Law of definite proportions Law of multiple proportions Atom Nuclear forces Atomic number Isotope Mass number nuclide Atomic mass unit Average atomic mass Mole Avogadro’s number Molar mass 2 Atomic Number • Atoms are composed of identical protons, neutrons, and electrons – How then are atoms of one element different from another element? • Elements are different because they contain different numbers of PROTONS • The “atomic number” of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus • # protons in an atom = # electrons Composition of The Atomic Nucleus • Nuclei contain protons and neutrons • The nuclei is neutral because the number of protons equal the number of electrons • Each element has a different number of protons in their nucleus – The number of protons determines the atom’s identity • Nuclear forces hold protons & neutrons together Chapter 3 Section 2 The Structure of the Atom pages 72-76 4 p. 76 Properties of Subatomic Particles Chapter 3 Section 2 The Structure of the Atom pages 72-76 5 Discovery of the Atomic Nucleus Relative size of the nucleus Chapter 3 Section 2 The Structure of the Atom pages 72-76 6 Isotopes • Atoms of the same element that have different masses • Isotopes of hydrogen – Protium 1p+ 0n0 – Deuterium 1p+ 1n0 – Tritium 1p+ 2n0 • Isotopes do not differ significantly in their chemical behavior Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 7 Mass Numbers • Mass numbers = # of p+ + # of n0 of a specific isotope • Examples – Protium 1p+ + 0n0 = 1 – Deuterium 1p+ + 1n0 = 2 – Tritium 1p+ + 2n0 = 3 Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 8 Designating Isotopes • Hyphen notation – name of element – mass number – Hydrogen – 3 • Nuclear symbol mass number atomic number Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 9 Number of neutrons in an atom neutrons = mass number – atomic number How many p+, e- and n0 are there in an atom of chlorine-37? 17 p+ 17e- 20n0 (37-17) Nuclide – a general term for a specific isotope of an element Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 10 Atoms: From Philosophical Idea to Scientific Theory Chapter 3 Section 1 Atoms: Ideas to Theory pages 67-71 11 Foundation of Chemical Atomic Theory • Law of Conservation of Mass – Mass is neither created or destroyed during ordinary chemical reactions or physical changes Chapter 3 Section 1 Atoms: Ideas to Theory pages 67-71 12 p. 69* Law of Conservation of Mass Image Chapter 3 Section 1 Atoms: Ideas to Theory pages 67-71 13 p. 69* Law of Conservation of Mass Image Chapter 3 Section 1 Atoms: Ideas to Theory pages 67-71 14 The atom – Philosophical Idea to Scientific Theory • The Greek philosopher Democritus (460 B.C. – 370 B.C.) was among the first to suggest the existence of atoms (from the Greek word “atomos”) – He believed that atoms were indivisible and indestructible – His ideas did agree with later scientific theory, but did not explain chemical behavior, and was not based on the scientific method – but just philosophy Dalton’s Atomic Theory (experiment based!) John Dalton (1766 – 1844) 1) All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms 2) Atoms of the same element are identical. Atoms of any one element are different from those of any other element. 3) Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios to form chemical compounds 4) In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged – but never changed into atoms of another element. Sizing up the Atom Elements are able to be subdivided into smaller and smaller particles – these are the atoms, and they still have properties of that element If you could line up 100,000,000 copper atoms in a single file, they would be approximately 1 cm long Despite their small size, individual atoms are observable with instruments such as scanning tunneling (electron) microscopes Structure of the Nuclear Atom • One change to Dalton’s atomic theory is that atoms are divisible into subatomic particles: –Electrons, protons, and neutrons are examples of these fundamental particles –There are many other types of particles, but we will study these three Discovery of the Electron In 1897, J.J. Thomson used a cathode ray tube to deduce the presence of a negatively charged particle: the electron Mass of the Electron Mass of the electron is 9.11 x 10-28 g The oil drop apparatus 1916 – Robert Millikan determines the mass of the electron: 1/1840 the mass of a hydrogen atom; has one unit of negative charge Conclusions from the Study of the Electron: a) Cathode rays have identical properties regardless of the element used to produce them. All elements must contain identically charged electrons. b) Atoms are neutral, so there must be positive particles in the atom to balance the negative charge of the electrons c) Electrons have so little mass that atoms must contain other particles that account for most of the mass Thomson’s Atomic Model J. J. Thomson Thomson believed that the electrons were like plums embedded in a positively charged “pudding,” thus it was called the “plum pudding” model. Ernest Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment - 1911 Alpha particles are helium nuclei The alpha particles were fired at a thin sheet of gold foil Particles that hit on the detecting screen (film) are recorded p. 75 Gold Foil Experiment Image Chapter 3 Section 2 The Structure of the Atom pages 72-76 24 Relative Atomic Mass • One atom, carbon-12, is set as a standard • All masses are expressed in relation to this standard • 1 atomic mass unit = 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 25 Relative Atomic Mass • Examples – Hydrogen – 1 = 1.007825 amu – Oxygen – 16 = 15.994915 amu – Magnesium – 24 = 23.985042 amu • p+ = 1.007276 amu, n0 = 1.008665 amu, e- = 0.0005486 amu • Relative mass and mass number are close in value but not the same Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 26 Average Atomic Mass • The weighted average of the atomic masses of the naturally occurring isotopes of an element • Example – Copper Cu-63: .6915 x 62.93 amu = 43.52 Cu-65: .3085 x 64.93 amu = 20.03 63.55 amu Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 27 The Mole • An amount of a substance that contains as many particles as there are atoms in exactly 12 g carbon-12. • Similar to a dozen or a pair or a gross • 6.022 x 1023 carbon-12 atoms = 12 grams of carbon-12 • Avogadro’s number = 6.022 x 1023 particles Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 28 Molar mass • The mass of one mole of a pure substance • Unit = g/mol Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 29 Gram-Mole Conversions • The conversion factor for gram-mole conversion is molar mass. g OR mol mol g • What is the mass, in grams, of 3.50 moles of Cu? – 222 grams Cu Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 30 Conversions Image p. 84 Chapter 3 Section 3 Counting Atoms pages 77-87 31
