  1. The Atom Atomic Number and Mass Number Isotopes LecturePLUS Timberlake

  2. Atoms, Elements, Subatomic Particles • Atoms: The basic unit of a chemical element. • Elements: each of more than one hundred substances that cannot be chemically inter-converted or broken down into simpler substances and are primary constituents of matter. • Subatomic Particles: A particle smaller than an atom. LecturePLUS Timberlake

  3. Atomic Theory • Atoms are building blocks of elements • Similar atoms in each element • Different from atoms of other elements • Two or more different atoms bond in simple ratios to form compounds LecturePLUS Timberlake

  4. Subatomic Particles Particle Symbol Charge Relative Mass Electron e- 1- 0 Proton p+ + 1 Neutron n 0 1 LecturePLUS Timberlake

  5. Location of Subatomic Particles 10-13 cm electrons protons neutrons 10-8 cm nucleus LecturePLUS Timberlake

  26. Masses of Atoms • A scale designed for atoms gives their small atomic masses in atomic mass units (amu) • An atom of 12C was assigned an exact mass of 12.00 amu • Relative masses of all other atoms was determined by comparing each to the mass of 12C • An atom twice as heavy has a mass of 24.00 amu. An atom half as heavy is 6.00 amu. LecturePLUS Timberlake

  27. Atomic Mass Na 22.99 • Listed on the periodic table • Gives the mass of “average” atom of each element compared to 12C • Average atom based on all the isotopes and their abundance % • Atomic mass is not a whole number LecturePLUS Timberlake

  33. Solution AT7 Ga-69 68.9 amu x 60.2 = 41.5 amu for 69Ga 100 Ga-71 (%/100) 70.9 amu x 39.8 = 28.2 amu for 71Ga 100 Atomic mass Ga = 69.7 amu LecturePLUS Timberlake

  34. Finding An Isotopic Mass A sample of boron consists of 10B (mass 10.0 amu) and 11B (mass 11.0 amu). If the average atomic mass of B is 10.8 amu, what is the % abundance of each boron isotope? LecturePLUS Timberlake

  35. Assign X and Y values: X = % 10B Y = % 11B Determine Y in terms of X X + Y = 100 Y = 100 - X Solve for X: X (10.0) + (100 - X )(11.0) = 10.8 100 100 Multiply through by 100 10.0 X + 1100 - 11.0X = 1080 LecturePLUS Timberlake

  36. Collect X terms 10.0 X - 11.0 X = 1080 - 1100 - 1.0 X = -20 X = -20 = 20 % 10B - 1.0 Y = 100 - X % 11B = 100 - 20% = 80% 11B LecturePLUS Timberlake

  38. Solution AT8 2) 70% Solution 62.9X + 6490 = 64.9X = 6350 -2.0 X = -140 X = 70% LecturePLUS Timberlake
