Thomson: discovery of the electron Henri Becquerel: Discovery of radioactivity 1900's Robert Millikan: Charge and mass of the electron Ernest Rutherford: Existence of the nucleus, and its relative size Meitner & Fermi: Sustained nuclear fission Ernest Lawrence: The cyclotron and trans-uranium elements Dalton’s Atomic Theory (1808) All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties; atoms of different John Dalton elements differ in size, mass, and other properties Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios to form chemical compounds In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged Modern Atomic Theory Several changes have been made to Dalton’s theory. Dalton said: Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties; atoms of different elements differ in size, mass, and other properties Modern theory states: Atoms of an element have a characteristic average mass which is unique to that element. Modern Atomic Theory #2 Dalton said: Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed Modern theory states: Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed in ordinary chemical reactions. However, these changes CAN occur in nuclear reactions! Adding Electrons to the Model Materials, when rubbed, can develop a charge difference. This electricity is called “cathode rays” when passed through an evacuated tube (demos). These rays have a small mass and are negative. Thompson noted that these negative subatomic particles were a fundamental part of all atoms. Dalton’s “Billiard ball” model (18001900) Atoms are solid and indivisible. 2) Thompson “Plum pudding” model (1900) Negative electrons in a positive framework. 3) The Rutherford model (around 1910) Atoms are mostly empty space. Negative electrons orbit a positive nucleus. 1) Law of conservation of matter When a chemical change (reaction) takes place, matter is neither created nor destroyed. Antoine Lavoisier (1775) Law of definite Proportions When two elements react to form a compound, the total amount(mass) of the compound formed is determined by the composition of the compound and not by the masses of the elements used. Example If 50.0 g of water is decomposed into 5.6 g of hydrogen gas and 44. 4g of oxygen gas. What is the percent by mass of these elements? Law of multiple proportions When two elements (a and b) can combine to form more than one compound, then for a fixed weight of a, the weights of b in two different compounds always form a ratio that is expressible in small whole numbers. Development of the structure of the atom Electron (e-) Thomson,1897 present in all atoms, negative charge(-1), 1/1836 mass of H atom Proton (p+) Thomson and Goldstein,1907 Present in all atoms, about the same mass of H, charge (+1) Neutron (no) Chadwick, 1932 Same mass as proton , 0 charge Discovery of the Electron In 1897, J.J. Thomson used a cathode ray tube to deduce the presence of a negatively charged particle. Cathode ray tubes pass electricity through a gas that is contained at a very low pressure. Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source + A stream of charged particles flows from cathode to the anode Vacuum tube Metal Disks Thomson Experiment Voltage source + - Passing an electric current makes a beam appear to move from the negative to the positive end Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source + By adding an electric field Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source + By adding an electric field he found that the moving pieces were negative 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. What did Thomson conclude from his experiment? He concluded that a cathode ray is composed of particles with a negative charge. These particles are electrons. Mass of the Electron 1909 – Robert Millikan determines the mass of the electron. The oil drop apparatus Mass of the electron is 9.109 x 10-31 kg Conclusions from the Study of the Electron Cathode rays have identical properties regardless of the element used to produce them. All elements must contain identically charged electrons. Atoms are neutral, so there must be positive particles in the atom to balance the negative charge of the electrons Electrons have so little mass that atoms must contain other particles that account for most of the mass Atomic Particles Particle Charge Mass (kg) Location Electron -1 9.109 x 10-31 Electron cloud Proton +1 1.673 x 10-27 Nucleus 0 1.675 x 10-27 Nucleus Neutron Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment Alpha particles are helium nuclei Particles were fired at a thin sheet of gold foil Particle hits on the detecting screen (film) are recorded Nucleus: holds protons and neutrons. Rutherford’s gold foil experiment “It was… as if you fired a 15-inch shell at a piece of tissue paper and it came back and hit you” Try it Yourself! In the following pictures, there is a target hidden by a cloud. To figure out the shape of the target, we shot some beams into the cloud and recorded where the beams came out. Can you figure out the shape of the target? The Answers Target #1 Target #2 The Atomic Scale Most of the mass of the atom is in the nucleus (protons and neutrons) Electrons are found outside of the nucleus (the electron cloud) Most of the volume of the atom is empty space “q” is a particle called a “quark” About Quarks… Protons and neutrons are NOT fundamental particles. Protons are made of two “up” quarks and one “down” quark. Neutrons are made of one “up” quark and two “down” quarks. Quarks are held together by “gluons” Rutherford’s Findings Most of the particles passed right through A few particles were deflected VERY FEW were greatly deflected Conclusions: The nucleus is small The nucleus is dense The nucleus is positively charged Isotopes Isotopes are atoms of the same element having different masses due to varying numbers of neutrons. Isotope Protons Electrons Neutrons Hydrogen–1 (protium) 1 1 0 Hydrogen-2 (deuterium) 1 1 1 Hydrogen-3 (tritium) 1 1 2 Nucleus Atomic Masses Atomic mass is the average of all the naturally isotopes of that element.

They have properties of both metals and nonmetals. Metalloids are more brittle than metals, less brittle than most nonmetallic solids Metalloids are semiconductors of electricity Some metalloids possess metallic luster Silicon, Si – A Metalloid Silicon has metallic luster Silicon is brittle like a nonmetal Silicon is a semiconductor of electricity Other metalloids include: Boron, B Germanium, Ge Arsenic, As Antimony, Sb Tellurium, Te Atomic size Atomic radius(measured by experimental techniques) measured in angstroms(10-10 meter), nanometers(nm, 10-9) or picometers(pm, 10-12) In a group, as you move down the atoms get larger(there are exceptions) Across a period from left to right the atoms get smaller Determination of Atomic Radius: Half of the distance between nuclei in covalently bonded diatomic molecule "covalent atomic radii" Periodic Trends in Atomic Radius Radius decreases across a period Radius increases down a group Ionic Radii Cations (+) Positively charged ions formed when an atom of a metal loses one or more electrons Smaller than the corresponding atom Negatively charged ions formed when nonmetallic atoms gain one Anions or more electrons (-) Larger than the corresponding atom (the extra repulsion produced by the incoming electron causes the atom to expand) Forming Cations & Anions A CATION forms when an atom loses one or more electrons.

Ionization Energy Minimum amount of energy required to remove the outermost electron from an atom (IE) IE decreases as you go down a group IE increases as you go from left to right in a period Electronegativity A measure of the ability of an atom in a chemical compound to attract electrons Electronegativities tend to increase across a period Electronegativities tend to decrease down a group or remain the same Summation of Periodic Trends New model of the atom New model came from closer examinations of properties of light given off by gaseous atoms Light could be defined as particles or pockets of energy called photons or as waves of energy. As a wave it is characterized by lambda(λ) Lambda= distance between identical adjacent points on the wave(distance between one crest or trough) Visible light ranges from 380-750nm The visible and invisible wavelengths are called electromagnetic radiation The entire spectrum=electromagnetic spectrum The white light dispersed by a prism into different wavelengths gives the continuous spectrum.
