What is an atom and its three subatomic parts? • What are the charges of the three subatomic parts? • How do you find atomic mass and the atomic number? • Compound vs. element? • What is an isotope? Objectives
The basic unit of matter. the smallest unit. • ‘unable to be cut’ • Can it be seen? • Is it living? • 100 million atoms side by side is about the width of your pinkie! How small is an atom?
3 subatomic particles • Proton • Neutron • Electron What is an atom made of?
POSITIVE PROTON (+) • Located inside the nucleus • Has a positive charge and contributes to the mass • Mass - 1.00727638 AMU Proton
NEUTRAL NEUTRON • Located inside the nucleus • Has no charge but contributes to the mass • Mass- 1.0086649156 AMU Neutrons
Negative Charge • Orbits around the nucleus and is in constant motion. • They are attracted to the positive charged nucleus. • There are the same amount of protons as electrons. • Mass is too small to be included. • Mass- 0.0005446623 AMU • (1/1836th the mass of a proton) Electrons
Element- pure substance containing only one type of atom. We distinguish the elements based on protons, neutrons, and electrons. Periodic Table
A substance formed by the chemical combination of 2 or more elements. • The physical and chemical properties of a compound and usually very different from the elements in which they are formed. • Sodium is a soft metal + poisonous chlorine = sodium chloride Compound + =
2 or more elements • Water = • salt (sodium chloride) = compounds
Atom = smallest unit of an element • Molecule = smallest unit of compound
Atomic number= # of protons = # of electrons • Atomic Mass= # of protons + number of neutrons Atomic mass What does it mean?
Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. • Some isotopes can give off radiation • Isotopes are identified by their atomic mass. Isotopes
Helium-5 • Atomic Mass = • Atomic number (protons) = • Number of neutrons = • Helium-6 • Atomic Mass = • Atomic number (protons) = • Number of neutrons = • Helium-7 • Atomic Mass = • Atomic number (protons) = • Number of neutrons = • Helium-8 • Atomic Mass = • Atomic number (protons) = • Number of neutrons = Isotopes
What is the difference between a covalent bond and an ionic bond? • What is an ion? • What are valence electrons? Bonds
Ionic – electrons are transferred from one atom to the next. • Covalent- electrons are shared between atoms Chemical bonds
Formed when one or more electrons are transferred and ions (charged atoms)are paired. • What is the charge of an electron? • When sodium looses an electron it has a positive charge. • Opposite ions attract! Ionic bonds
The electrons in one atom that are able to form bonds with another atom. • The closer the atom is to having 8 valence electrons , the more stable it is. Valence electrons Where are the valence electrons?
Bonds between a metal and nonmetal. Ionic Bonds
Electrons are shared between atoms. • 1 bond is when atoms share 2 electrons • Nonmetal with nonmetal • Neither atom is strong enough to pull an electron away from the other so they share. Covalent Bond
