Chapter 2 Atoms Matter • Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. • Made up of atoms • Examples of things that are not matter include thoughts and emotions. • Classified as being either a pure substance or a mixture of two or more pure substances. Pure Substances • Pure substances are defined as having a “fixed composition” - one exact combination of ingredients that cannot be varied. • Ingredients of a pure substance are chemically combined so that they lose their original identity and cannot be separated out without major chemical intervention. Pure Substances • Elements are substances which consist of only one type of atom. All the elements are listed on the periodic. Oxygen • Compounds are substances which consist of more than one type of atom combined in a fixed ratio. Water Elements • The “building blocks of nature”. All substances, all matter is created from elements. • Elements are given chemical symbols, which are one or two letter abbreviations derived from the common or Latin name of the element. • Chemical symbols are always written with the first letter capitalized and the second letter (if there is one) in lower case. Mixtures • Mixtures are two or more pure substances mixed in a “varying ratio”. This means that there is more than one way to combine the ingredients. • In addition, the ingredients are physically mixed but not chemically combined and they can be easily separated. • Trail mix, hot chocolate Homogenous Mixtures • Homogeneous mixtures (solutions) have a uniform (same) appearance. • The ingredients are evenly mixed and typically you cannot see the individual ingredients. – Kool aid • If you take two samples of a homogeneous mixture, the samples will have the same composition due to the even mixing. – Glasses of Kool aid Heterogeneous mixtures • Heterogeneous mixtures do not have a uniform (different) appearance. • The ingredients do not mix evenly and typically you can see the individual components. – Trail mix, Chocolate chip cookies. • Samples of heterogeneous mixtures do not necessarily have the same composition. – Hand fulls of trail mix Classifying Matter Oxygen Water Kool Aid Trail Mix Classifying Matter • Classify the following substances: • • • • • • Ice Blueberry muffin Vitamin A Oxygen Tea Vegetable soup John Dalton (1766-1844) • English chemist & teacher (started teaching at age 12) • Experiments led to discovery that the ratios of the elements in the compound are whole number multiples (law of multiple proportions) Dalton’s Atomic Theory (1808) • First modern atomic theory, based on empirical evidence • Called particles atoms in honor of Democritus • Based on 3 important laws Law of Conservation of Matter Law of Constant Composition Law of Multiple Proportions • Dalton proposed an atomic theory for matter that would explain the existence of all 3 laws. Postulates of Dalton’s Atomic Theory 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. All elements are made of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms. All atoms of a given element have the same chemical properties. Conversely, atoms of different elements have different chemical properties. In ordinary chemical reactions, no atom of any element disappears or is changed into an atom of another element Compounds are formed by the chemical combination of two or more different kinds of atoms. Ina given compound, the relative numbers of atoms of each kind of element are constant, and are most commonly expressed as integers. A molecule is a tightly bound combination of two or more atoms that acts as a single unit.

For example, all carbon atoms have ____ protons. Any atom with six protons is a ______ atom. • The atomic number also gives us the number of _______ in an atom. • Atoms are charge-neutral, which means that every proton in the nucleus is balanced by an electron in the electron cloud.

Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons are called isotopes. A= mass number Z = atomic number Isotopes differ only in numbers of neutrons Isoptopes • It is possible for atoms of the same element to have different numbers of neutrons. • The identity of the element is based on the number of protons • The neutrons are charge-neutral, changing the number of neutrons only changes the mass of the atom.

Problem 2.5 page 41 Atomic Mass • The mass of an atom is based on the average mass of all the isotopes of an element. • Elements have a naturally occurring abundance of each isotope. • These naturally occurring abundances are used with the isotopic mass to calculate the average atomic mass of an element. Atomic Mass Calculations • The atomic masses of each element are shown on the periodic table. • When you do these problems, you can always check your work against the periodic table. • Your results should be close but will probably not be exactly the same.

Calculate the atomic mass of copper. • In 100 g of copper, how many grams of 63Cu? Dmitri Mendeleev (1834-1907) • Chemists began trying to design a system of classifying the elements based on their properties • When Mendeleev arranged the elements by increasing atomic weight, he noticed a periodic repetition in atomic properties (e.g. density, melting point, etc.) Mendeleev’s Table • Mendeleev left blanks in his table, predicting elements (and their properties) not yet discovered • Led to search for these elements that, when discovered, had the properties Mendeleev had predicted • Powerful predictive properties of the table led to its acceptance The Periodic Table • The periodic table is a systematic arrangement of all the elements which exist in: – Nature – contrived laboratory conditions – In our minds (?) The Periodic Table • Groups: Vertical columns • Periods: Horizontal rows • Elements in the same groups have similar chemical properties. The Periodic Table • Metals: To ______ of jagged line (except hydrogen) • Nonmetals: To _____ of jagged line (except hydrogen) • Metalloids: _______ jagged line (except aluminum which is a metal) • Alkali metals: Group ____ • Alkaline earth metals: Group ____ • Halogens: Group ____ • Noble gases: Group ____ • Transition metals: All Group ____ Metals, Nonmetals, and Metalloids • Metals are shiny, ductile and malleable, and are good conductors of heat and electricity. They have _____ densities and _____ melting points. • Nonmetals are dull and brittle. They are poor conductors of heat and electricity and have relatively _____ densities and _____ melting points. • Metalloids are shiny and brittle. They are poor conductors of heat and electricity, and have _____ densities and melting points (although not as _____ as metals). Using the Periodic Table Electron Energy Levels • Electrons are constantly moving • The shape of the electron path is called the orbital – Sphere shapes are called s orbitals – Figure 8 shapes are called p orbitals • The distance between electrons and the nucleus is called the energy level – Closest to the nucleus is called n=1 – Energy levels go to infinity • Practice worksheet from your Chem 121 packet Electron Energy Levels • Electrons are free to move between energy levels, like going up and down floors in a building – Moving up in energy levels requires atom to absorb energy – Moving down in energy levels requires atom to release energy • Energy absorbed and released during energy level transitions is called photons • Photons are more commonly known as “light” and “radiation” Valence Electrons • We now know that periodic trends are the result of similarities in the electrons in an atom. More specifically, periodic trends are the results of similarity in valence electrons, which are the electrons located in the highest energy level (furthest from the nucleus). • Valence electrons perform the chemistry in a chemical reaction Valence Electrons • All atoms in Group 1A have one valence electron, Group 2A have 2 valence electrons, Group 3A have 3 valence electrons etc… • Valence electrons are typically represented in one of two ways: electron configuration (not covered in this class) and Lewis dot symbols (also called electron-dot symbols). Lewis Dot Symbols (Structures) • Lewis dot symbols show only the valence electrons in an atom. Periodic Trends • The periodic table arranges elements according to similarities in properties, such as reactivity or physical state. • These similarities are called periodic trends. Periodic Trends • The periodic table was originally designed based completely on observations of periodic trends. • The chemists who created the periodic table were even able to correctly predict physical properties and the reactivity of elements that had not yet been discovered. Periodic Properties • Atomic Radius is the volume of the electron clouds in atoms • Increases going down each group • Decrease going across from left to right Atomic Radius Increasing Atomic Radius Decreasing Atomic Radius Periodic Properties • Ionization Energy is the energy needed to remove the least tightly bound electron from an atom in the gaseous state. When this happens, the atom becomes an ion • Increases going across from left to right • Decreases going down a group Ionization Energy Ionization Energy Increases Ionization Energy Decreases
