  1. Atoms

  2. Greek Atomic Model • Democritus (400 BC) • Named the atom • Atom cannot be divided

  3. Dalton’s Atomic Theory • 1803 • All elements are composed of atoms (not divisible) • Atoms of same element are the same • Atoms of different elements are different

  4. Thomson’s Model • 1897 • Atom has smaller parts, like electrons • Atom made of a positive pudding-like material with negatively charged electrons scattered throughout

  5. Rutherford’s Model • 1911 • Positive-charged particles in the nucleus • Negative scattered around edges • Gold foil experiment

  6. Rutherford’s Experiment

  7. Bohr’s Model • 1913 • Electrons move in definite orbits around the nucleus (like the planets move around the sun) • Energy levels located a certain distance from the nucleus

  8. Compare the Thomson to the Rutherford/Bohr

  9. Wave Theory • Modern model • Electrons do not travel in definite paths • Think electron cloud

  10. Atomic Structure

  11. Subatomic Particles • protons = positive charge (+) • electrons = negative charge (-) • neutrons = neutral (0 charge)

  12. Subatomic Particles

  13. Lithium Atom • How many protons? • How many electrons? • How many neutrons?

  14. Atomic Number • identifies the element on the periodic table • equals the # of protons in the nucleus

  15. Atomic Mass • sum of the # of protons + # of neutrons in the nucleus • changes with isotopes

  16. Isotopes • atoms of the same element • same # of protons • different # of neutrons • different atomic mass • examples = hydrogen, carbon, uranium

  17. Isotopes

  18. Electron Cloud • electrons move about the nucleus locked in a certain area of the electron cloud • location called energy levels

  19. Electron Shells

  20. # of electrons in each orbital shell • electrons with low energy are found in the energy level closest to the nucleus
