Structure of An Atom Notes
6 Elements that are needed for living things ____________ • ____________ = 96% of the Human Body CHNOPS CHNO
Atoms = ________________________ ________________________ = has all the characteristics of that element = ________________________ ________________________ smallest particle of an element basic building block of all matter
e- NUCLEUS e- e- e- e- e- e- ELECTRONS negative(e-) e- e- Electron cloud PROTONS positive (p+) Neutrons neutral (n°)
All nuclei are _________ because of the ________. • Each element has a different number of _________ positive protons protons
e- e- e- e- e- e- e- NUCLEUS e- Energy Levels Energy Levels e- e- 2 8 18
e- e- e- e- e- e- NUCLEUS e- e- Energy Levels Example: Oxygen = 8 e- 2 6
Atomic Number 8 15.9994 Atomic Weight • The # of p+ in nucleus • Determines which element an atom is O = the total # of particles an atom
8 15.9994 + = Number of n° Number of p+ MASS NUMBER Atomic Number O Atomic Weight then if you ROUND You will get the… Mass Number = the sum of p+ and n° Number of Neutrons = Mass # - Atomic #
8 15.9994 O What’s an isotope? So, why is this a decimal? It is an average of all the isotopes!
The Nuclei of 3 isotopes of H+ TRITIUM DEUTERIUM PROTIUM + + + 1 PROTON 1 PROTON 1 NEUTRON 1 PROTON 2 NEUTRONS Definition of isotope Atoms that have the same # of p+ but different # of n°
Substance with atoms of 2 or more elements that are chemically combined Compounds = • Example of Compounds: • H2O • CO2 • NaCl • C6H12O6 • HCl • NH4
e- e- e- e- e- e- e- NUCLEUS e- Atoms come together when the result is more ________ than the individual atoms stable If electron levels are filled to capacity then it is STABLE e- e- 2 8 18
How do they fill energy levels? • 1) BY SHARING ELECTRONS • 2) BY GAINING OR LOSING ELECTRONS
Method One: sharing electronsExample: Hydrogen e- H e- H H e- unstable sharing electrons is called "covalent bonding"
H H O Another example: H20 = water stable & happy!
Examples of Molecules with Covalent Bonding: • sugars, fats, proteins, & water • “MOLECULE” = group of atoms held together by a covalent bond
Method Two: gaining or losing electrons • An atom (or group of atoms) that gains or loses electrons = ION = (charged particle) If I gain an electron then I will become more negative If I lose a negative electron then I will become more positive
11 e- 11 p+ 17 e- 17 p+ Cl Na Na Cl + unstable unstable
stable Na Cl ionic bond Ionic bond = attractive force between 2 ions of opposite charge
MIXTURE Combination of substances in which the individual components retain their own properties Can be separated Ex: chex mix SOLUTION Mixture in which 1 or more substances (solutes) are distributed evenly in another substance (solvent) Ex: Jello Difference between a mixture & a solution
