History of the Atomic Theory: Greeks • Original idea Ancient Greece (400 B.C..) • Democritus and Leucippus Greek philosophers
History of the Atomic Theory: Greeks Democritus (400 BC) • Matter is made up of “atoms” • Atoms are always moving • Atoms join together • He was right • Problem: no evidence and not as popular • Coined the word: Atomos
History of the Atomic Theory: Greeks Aristotle (350 BC) • All matter is continuous • Air Water Fire Earth • He was very well known in his day • But he was completely wrong
History of Atomic Theory: XVII-XVIII Centuries Boyle (1627-1691): defined the concept of an element. Did tremendous work with gases Newton(1642-1727) advocated the corpuscular( corpuscle – particle) theory of matter.
History of Atomic Theory: Late XVIII Century • Combination Laws are formulated • Law of Conservation of Mass • Law of Definite Proportions • Law of Multiple proportions
Law of Conservation of Mass Antoine Lavoisier (1770s) • Experiment: tin + oxygen tin oxide mass before rxn = mass after rxn • Develops Law of Conservation of Mass • Matter cannot be created or destroyed (in a chemical or physical change)
Law of Definite Composition Joseph Proust (1779) • In each compound elements combine in definite proportions to each other by mass • Example: carbon dioxide contains 27.3% carbon and 72.7% oxygen • Example: water, 11.2 % hydrogen and the rest oxygen
Law of Multiple Proportions (Dalton) • If two elements form more that one compound, the ratio of one element that combines with 1 gram of the first element in each of the compounds is a small whole number. • Examples: 1.00 g of NO will combine with 1.14 g of O to form nitrogen monoxide, and 1.00 g of N will combine with 2.28 g of O to form nitrogen dioxide. The ratio of masses of oxygen in both compounds is 2.28: 1.14 = 2:1
History of the Atomic Theory: Dalton • Dalton, unlike Democritus, collects evidence and develops: • Dalton’s Atomic Theory
Dalton’s Atomic Theory: Postulates • All matter is made of tiny indivisible particles called atoms. • Atoms of the same element are identical in their properties, those of different elements are different. • Atoms of different elements combine in whole number ratios to form compounds • Chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of atoms. No new atoms are created or destroyed.

Discovery of Radioactivity • Becquerel: 1896. Discovered radioactivity • Maria Curie Sklodowska: discovered radium and polonium (1898)
The Discovery of Electrons • J. J. Thomson(1856-1940) - English physicist. • Used cathode ray tube. • It is a vacuum tube - all the air has been pumped out. • Discovered the electron (1897) and the proton (1923) • Calculated the ratio between the charge of the electron and its mass: e/m
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source - + Vacuum tube Metal Disks
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source - + Vacuum Tube before the experiment: the tube is evacuated and power is about to be applied.
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source - + • Passing an electric current makes a beam appear to move from the negative to the positive end
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source - + • Passing an electric current makes a beam appear to move from the negative to the positive end in straight line
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source • When external electric field (outside the tube) is added:
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source + anode - cathode External electric field External electrodes
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source + - • By adding an external electric field
Thomson’s Experiment Voltage source + - • By adding an external electric fieldhe found that the moving pieces were negative: they bend towards the positive anode.
Thomson’s Model • Thomson proposed the following: • the atom was like plum pudding • Ball of positively charged matter • electrons scattered throughout and can be easily removed
Millikan’s Oil Drop Experiments Robert Milikan (1909) • Oil Drop Experiment • Measured the electrical charge on the electron • Mass can be calculated (Thomson determined the e/m ratio) • Mass is 1/1840 the mass of a hydrogen atom • electronhas a mass of 9.11 x 10-28 g

Discovery of the Nucleus • So, at this point we know: • Dalton’s Atomic Theory • Electrons are negatively charged (Thomson) • Atoms are neutral • The mass of an electron is very small (Millikan) • Where is the mass of the atom?
Discovery of the Nucleus: Rutherford Ernest Rutherford (1909): Gold Foil Experiment • Alpha particles (+2 charge) beamed at thin gold foil • Progress followed on a scintillating screen • When alpha particles (+2) hit screen, the screen lights up • Most particles went through • Some particles bounced to the sides and at 180º • In process: discovered the proton • Proton is positively charged
Florescent Screen Lead block Uranium Gold Foil THE SET-UP
Rutherford Expected • The alpha particles to pass through without changing direction Because • The positive charges were spread out evenly. Alone they were not enough to stop the alpha particles
Because, he thought the mass was evenly distributed in the atom
Because, he thought the mass was evenly distributed in the atom

Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment Here’s what it looked like (pg 72) • http://www.mhhe.com/physsci/chemistry/essentialchemistry/flash/ruther14.swf
Discovery of the Nucleus: Rutherford • Discovered the: • Proton: positively charged piece 1840 times heavier than the electron • Predicted the existence of • Neutron: no charge but the same mass as a proton. • Where are the pieces?
Discovery of the Nucleus: Density of the Atom • Since most of the particles went through, the atom is mostly empty. • Since some of the alpha paricles were strongly deflected, the positive pieces were heavy. • Small volume, big mass, big density • This small dense positive area is the nucleus
Rutherford: Explanation + Atom is: • mostly empty • small dense, positive piece at center: nucleus • Alpha particles are deflected by it if they get close enough
Rutherford’s Contributions • Discovered the nucleus. • Did not know where to place the electrons • Proposed the NUCLEAR MODEL of the atom also called the PLANETARY ATOM • Proposed the existence of the neutron • Determined the size of the nucleus (1x10-15 m) and the atom (1 x 10-11 m for hydrogen atom, larger for other atoms) • Elucidated the structure of the alpha-particles • Performed the first nuclear reaction
Discovery of the Nucleus • At this point in 1909, we know: • p+ = 1.67 x 10-24 g • e- = 9.11 x 10-28 g • The charges are balance! • Size of atom: 1x 10-11m (for hydrogen atom, the smallest in the periodic table) • Size of nucleus: 1 x 10-15 m • But, • How are the electrons arranged? • There is still mass that is unaccounted for
Structure of the Atoms: Niels Bohr Niels Bohr (1913) • Electrons orbit nucleus in predictable paths • Much more on him later
Discovery of the Neutron: Chadwick Chadwick (1935) • Discovers neutron in nucleus • Neutron is neutral • n0 • Mass is 1.67 x 10-24 g
Structure of the Atom: 1913 • Charges balanced (protons in nucleus + electrons) • Mass accounted for (protons + neutrons) • Placement of electrons: uncertain • Today, we subscribe to the Quantum Atom Theory to describe the atomic structure
Quantum Atom Quantum Atom Theory • The atom is mostly empty space • Two regions: • Nucleus- protons and neutrons • Electron cloud- region where you have a 90% chance of finding an electron
