  1. Atoms, Molecules and Ions

  2. Dalton’s Atomic Theory (1808) • Elements are composed of extremely small particles called atoms. All atoms of a given element are identical, having the same size, mass and chemical properties. The atoms of one element are different from the atoms of all other elements. • Compounds are composed of atoms of more than one element. The relative number of atoms of each element in a given compound is always the same. • Chemical reactions only involve the rearrangement of atoms. Atoms are not created or destroyed in chemical reactions. 2.1

  3. Dalton developed the atomic theory to explain • The Law of Conservation of Mass • The Law of Definite Proportions • The Law of Multiple Proportions Laws are summaries of experimental observations. Theories are models devised to explain laws.

  4. Laws of Mass Conservation & Definite Composition Law of Mass conservation: The total mass of substances does not change during a chemical reaction. Law of Definite ( or constant ) composition: No matter what its source, a particular chemical compound is composed of the same elements in the same proportions by mass.

  6. LAW OF MULTIPLE PROPORTIONS If two elements can combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combine with with a fixed mass of the other element are in the ratio of small whole numbers. Carbon monoxide 1.00 g C to 1.33 g O Carbon dioxide 1.00 g C to 2.66 g O The mass of an element in a compound is proportional to the number of atoms of the element present?

  8. Atoms

  9. THE STRUCTURE OF THE ATOM Dalton thought that the atom was indivisible, but by the end of the 19th century there was evidence that the atom was composed of smaller particles. The electron was discovered in the 1890’s by J. J. Thomson using a Crooks tube (cathode ray tube). He was able to measure the ratio of the electric charge to mass of the electron to be -1.76 x 108 C/g. Later an American physicist, Millikan, measured the charge to be -1.60 x 10-19 C.

  10. Rutherford Experiment • Bombarded a thin gold foil with high-energy alpha particles from radium. • Most alpha particles went through unaffected. • About 1 in 10,000 deflected through a large angle. • Lead to nuclear model of atom.

  11. (1908 Nobel Prize in Chemistry) • particle velocity ~ 1.4 x 107 m/s (~5% speed of light) • atoms positive charge and most of its mass • are concentrated in the nucleus • 2. light electrons are in the outer part of the atom. 2.2

  12. Rutherford’s Model of the Atom atomic radius ~ 100 pm = 1 x 10-10 m nuclear radius ~ 5 x 10-3 pm = 5 x 10-15 m If the atom is the Houston Astrodome Then the nucleus is a marble on the 50 yard line 2.2

  13. By the1930’s it was known that the nucleus contained two subatomic particles - the proton and the neutron. The nucleus has a volume which is only a tiny fraction of the atom. The electrons occupy the outer part of the atom.

  14. Subatomic Particles (Table 2.1) mass p = mass n = 1840 x mass e- 2.2

  18. THE PERIODIC TABLE Elements with similar chemical and physical properties are grouped together in vertical columns called GROUPS or FAMILIES. Rows are called PERIODS. Group 1 (1A) - alkali metals Group 2 (2A) - alkaline earth metals Group 17 (7A) - halogens Group 18 (8A) - noble gases Transition elements (3-12) metals, nonmetals, metalloids

  22. How do we know how many electrons are lost or gained? For elements near either side of the periodic table the atoms tend to form ions with the same number of electrons as the nearest noble gas (octet rule). What kind of ions do these elements form? I, Ba, Al, S, Rb, Fe
