Discovery and Properties of Electrons • Humphrey Davy (early 1800’s) - passed electricity through compounds • compounds decomposed into elements • compounds are held together by electrical forces • Michael Faraday - (1832-1833) - amount of reaction that occurs during electrolysis is proportional to current passed through compounds
Discovery of the Electron • J.J. Thomson proved the existence of the electron by showing that the beam in the Crookes tube experiments could be deflected when passed between two plates containing opposite charges.
Discovery of the Electron • Electrons carry the - charge since they come from the negative electrode and go to the positive electrode.
Discovery of the Electron • J.J. Thomson determined the e/m ratio by measuring the degree of deflection of cathode rays. e/m = 1.75882 x 108 coulomb/g
Millikan Oil-Drop Experiment Determined the charge electron. -1.60218 x 10-19C/e
Electron Mass • Millikan’s determination of the charge of an electron allowed for the determination of the mass of an electron.
Discovery of Proton • Rutherford shot a-particles at thin gold (Au) foil to see if they would be deflected. • Some a -particles were deflected back. • This could happen only if a highly concentrated + charge was deflecting the positively charged a-particle.
Atoms consist of very small, very dense nuclei surrounded by clouds of electrons at relatively great distances from the nuclei. Rutherford Model of the Atom
Atomic Theory • All nuclei contain protons. • Protons have a positive charge. • analyzed evidence from a-particle scattering • recognized existence of massive neutral particles - neutrons James Chadwick-1932
Mass Number & Isotopes • H.G. J. Moseley (1912-1914) - recognized that atomic number is the defining difference between elements • new understanding of Mendeleev’s periodic law
Atomic Theory • All atoms, except for hydrogen, also contain neutrons. • Neutrons do not have a charge.
Atom Composition The atom is mostly empty space • protons and neutrons in the nucleus. • the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. • electrons in space around the nucleus. • extremely small. • One teaspoon of water has 3 times as many atoms as the Atlantic Ocean has teaspoons of water.

The atomic weight of carbon is 12.011 amu, computed as follows... • Atomic weight of C = the sum of (%abundance of isotope) x (its mass) for all stable isotopes. So... as percentages (98.89%)(12 amu) + (1.11%)(13.0034 amu) = or as fractions (0.9889)(12 amu) + (0.111)(13.0034 amu) = 12.011 amu

Electromagnetic Spectrum Visible light makes up only a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Electromagnetic Spectrum • Electromagnetic radiation has a dual behavior. • It has properties of a particle called a photon and as a wave traveling at the speed of light. • Characterized by a wavelength and frequency.
Electromagnetic Radiation Wavelength-l • The distance between two corresponding points on a wave. l
Electromagnetic Radiation Frequency-n • The number of wave crests passing a given point per unit time.
