Atoms, Molecules & Ions AP Chemistry Chapter 2.1 (Days 3 & 4)
Subatomic Particles • Protons and electrons are the only particles that have a charge. • Protons and neutrons have essentially the same mass. • The mass of an electron is so small we ignore it.
Symbols of Elements Elements are symbolized by one or two letters.
Atomic Number All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons: The atomic number (Z) In a neutral atom, the # of p+ = the # of e-
Atomic Mass The mass of an atom in atomic mass units (amu) is the total number of protons and neutrons in the atom. Remember, electron mass is so tiny we essentially ignore it.
Atoms of the same element with different masses. Isotopes have different numbers of neutrons. 11 6 12 6 13 6 14 6 C C C C Isotopes
Correct Answer: 6 8 12 14 14 Mass number C 6 Atomic number The difference between the mass number and the atomic number is the number of neutrons (14 6) = 8.
Determining the Number of Subatomic Particles in Atoms How many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in (a) an atom of 197Au (b) an atom of strontium-90?
Determining the Number of Subatomic Particles in Atoms How many protons, neutrons, and electrons are in (a) a 138Ba atom, (b) an atom of phosphorus-31? Answer: (a) 56 protons, 56 electrons, and 82 neutrons; (b) 15 protons, 15 electrons, and 16 neutrons.
Periodic Table • A systematic catalog of elements. • Elements are arranged in order of atomic number.
Periodicity When one looks at the chemical properties of elements, one notices a repeating pattern of reactivities.
Periodic Table • The rows on the periodic chart are periods or series. • Columns are groups or families. • Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties.
Groups These five groups are known by their names.
Metals, Nonmetals, Semimetals Metals – good conductors, high luster, ductile, malleable
Metals, Nonmetals, Semimetals Nonmetals – most are gases, poor conductors, brittle
Metals, Nonmetals, Semimetals Semi-metals (metalloids) – have properties similar to metals and nonmetals
Diatomic Molecules These seven elements occur naturally as molecules containing two atoms: • Hydrogen & draw a 7 starting at N (element 7) • Hockey stick & puck • BrINClHOF (Brinklehoff) • IHave No Bright Or Clever Friends
Compounds and Chemical Formulas Molecule - A single particle, contains two or more nonmetal atoms; covalently bonded Formula Unit – a particle containing a metal with a nonmetal; ionicly bonded Chemical formulas– give the number of atoms of each element in a compound

Relating Empirical and Molecular Formulas Give the empirical formula for the substance called diborane, whose molecular formula is B2H6. Answer: BH3
C2H6 • CH3
Ions • When atoms lose or gain electrons, they become ions.
Ions • Cation – positive ion • Has the “t” like a + sign • Formed by metals and some nonmetals • Lost electrons • #p+ > #e- • Anion – negative ion • Gained electrons • Formed by nonmetals • #p+ < #e- • Polyatomic ions • Made up of two or more atoms • Can be positive or negative
An isotope of Cr3+ ion containing 24 protons and 27 neutrons would contain ___ electrons. 21 24 27 3
Correct Answer: 21 24 27 3 The +3 charge indicates there are 3 more protons than electrons: 24 3 = 21
