Chemistry Timeline #1 B.C. 400 B.C. Demokritos and Leucipposuse the term "atomos” 2000 years of Alchemy • 1500's • Georg Bauer: systematic metallurgy • Paracelsus: medicinal application of minerals 1600's Robert Boyle:The Skeptical Chemist.Quantitative experimentation, identification of elements • 1700s' • Georg Stahl: Phlogiston Theory • Joseph Priestly: Discovery of oxygen • Antoine Lavoisier: The role of oxygen in combustion, law of conservation of • mass, first modern chemistry textbook
Chemistry Timeline #2 • 1800's • Joseph Proust: The law of definite proportion (composition) • John Dalton: The Atomic Theory, The law of multiple proportions • Joseph Gay-Lussac: Combining volumes of gases, existence of diatomic molecules • Amadeo Avogadro: Molar volumes of gases • Jons Jakob Berzelius: Relative atomic masses,modern symbols for the elements • Dmitri Mendeleyev: The periodic table • J.J. 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
Laws • Conservation of Mass • Law of Definite Proportion – • compounds have a constant composition. • They react in specific ratios by mass. • Multiple Proportions- • When two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with one gram of the first can be reduced to small whole numbers.
Proof • Mercury has two oxides. • One is 96.2 % mercury by mass, the other is 92.6 % mercury by mass. • Show that these compounds follow the law of multiple proportion. • Speculate on the formula of the two oxides.
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 elements differ in size, mass, and other properties John Dalton • 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!
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 Atomic Model Thomson believed that the electrons were like plums embedded in a positively charged “pudding,” thus it was called the “plum pudding” model.
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
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”
Isotopes Isotopes are atoms of the same element having different masses due to varying numbers of neutrons.
Atomic Masses Atomic mass is the average of all the naturally isotopes of that element. Carbon = 12.011
Molecules Two or more atoms of the same or different elements, covalently bonded together. Molecules are discrete structures, and their formulas represent each atom present in the molecule. Benzene, C6H6
Covalent Network Substances Covalent network substances have covalently bonded atoms, but do not have discrete formulas. Why Not?? Graphite Diamond
Ions • Cation: A positive ion • Mg2+, NH4+ • Anion: A negative ion • Cl-, SO42- • Ionic Bonding: Force of attraction between oppositely charged ions. • Ionic compounds form crystals, so their formulas are written empirically (lowest whole number ratio of ions).
The Properties of a Group: the Alkali Metals • Easily lose valence electron (Reducing agents) • React violently with water • Large hydration energy • React with halogens to form salts
