Atoms and Bonds What is “stuff” made of? Atoms and Bonds I. Atoms A. Matter 1. Elements are different forms of matter which have different chemical and physical properties, and can not be broken down further by chemical reactions. 2. The smallest unit of an element that retains the properties of that element is an atom. 3. Atoms are composed of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, orbited by electrons: Proton: in nucleus; mass = 1, charge = +1 - Defines Element Neutron: in nucleus; mass = 1, charge = 0 Electron: orbits nucleus; mass ~ 0, charge = -1 Atoms and Bonds I. Atoms A. Matter B. Properties of Atoms 1. Subatomic Particles Proton: in nucleus; mass = 1, charge = +1 - Defines Element Neutron: in nucleus; mass = 1, charge = 0 Electron: orbits nucleus; mass ~ 0, charge = -1 Orbit at quantum distances (shells) Shells 1, 2, and 3 have 1, 4, and 4 orbits (2 electrons each) Shells hold 2, 8, 8 electrons = distance related to energy Neon (Bohr model) Atoms and Bonds I.

Isotopes - 'extra' neutrons... heavier Some are stable Some are not... they 'decay' - lose the neutron These 'radioisotopes' emit energy (radiation) Atoms and Bonds I. Atoms A. Matter B. Properties of Atoms 4. Isotopes - 'extra' neutrons... heavier Some are stable Some are not... they 'decay' - lose the neutron These 'radioisotopes' emit energy (radiation) This process is not affected by environmental conditions and is constant; so if we know the amount of parent and daughter isotope, and we know the decay rate, we can calculate the time it has taken for this much daughter isotope to be produced. Atoms and Bonds I. Atoms A. Matter B. Properties of Atoms 4. Isotopes - 'extra' neutrons... heavier Gamma decay - neutron emits energy as a photon - no change in neutron number, mass, or element. Alpha decay - loss of an alpha particle (2 protons and 2 neutrons) from the nucleus. This changes the mass and element. (Uranium with 92 protons decays to Thorium with 90 protons) Beta decay - a neutron changes to a proton, and an electron is emitted. This changes only the element (determined by the number of protons.), but not the mass. (C14 decays, neutron changes to proton, and N14 is produced) - K40-Ar40 suppose 1/2 of total is Ar40 = 1.3by (Now, you may be thinking, "be real"!

This radiation is detectible and measureable...and when it has been measured over the last 100 years, it is always the same. So, not only is there theoretical justification for expecting a constant decay rate, tests have confirmed this expectation. Atoms and Bonds I. Atoms II. Bonds A. Molecules Atoms and Bonds I.

Atoms and Bonds I. Atoms II. Bonds A. Molecules 1. atoms chemically react with one another and form molecules - the atoms are "bound" to one another by chemical bonds - interactions among electrons or charged particles. 2. Bonds form because atoms attain a more stable energy state if their outermost shell is full. It can do this by loosing, gaining, or sharing electrons. This is often called the 'octet rule' because the 2nd and 3rd shells can contain 8 electrons. Atoms and Bonds I. Atoms II. Bonds A. Molecules B. Covalent Bonds - atoms are shared Atoms and Bonds I.
