  1. Chapter 2. Atoms Molecules & Ions KEY CONCEPTS • Chemical laws • Dalton's atomic theory • Atom • Molecules • Ions • Average atomic mass • Periodic table • Formula of a substance • Name of a Substance • Molecular or Covalent compounds • Ionic compounds

  2. Alchemist • Early scientist observed changes of matter. They called these changes chemical reactions when there are changes in substances or the physical properties of the matter. They also observed a pattern or a repeatable observation in chemical reactions.

  3. Three Chemical Laws: • Law of Conservation of Mass: • Law of Constant Proportions: • Law of Multiple Proportions:

  4. Law of Conservation of Mass • Total mass after a chemical reaction is same as before the reaction. • H2 + 1/2 O2 ---> H2O • Hydrogen (4g) + oxygen (32g) ----> water 36g after the reaction.

  5. Law of Constant (Definite) Proportions A given chemical compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by weight. 36gofwater contains 4g of hydrogen and 32g of oxygen take any other chemical compund.

  6. Law of Multiple Proportions When two elements make a series of chemical compounds, the ratio of the masses of the second elements that combine with 1 gram of the first element can always be reduced to simple whole numbers. C O E.g. carbon monoxide 1g 1.33g carbon dioxide 1g 2.66g

  7. Dalton’s atomic theory • All matter is composed of atoms -- the smallest particle of an element that takes part in a chemical reaction. • All atoms of an element are alike. • Compounds are combinations of atoms of one or more elements. The relative number of atoms each element is always the same. • Atoms cannot be created or destroyed by a chemical reaction. They only change how they combine with each other.

  8. Models of matter • Models are commonly used to help visualize atoms and molecules. • Atom - The smallest unit of an element that has all of the properties of an element. • Molecule - The smallest unit of a pure substance that has the properties of that substance. • It may contain more that one atom and more than one element. • Ions - Charged particles formed by the transfer of electrons between atoms or molecules

  9. What is an Atom? • Very small particle. • Smallest particles of elements and molecules • There about 110 types of elements or Atoms. • Different atoms have different physical properties and chemical reactivity

  10. Structure of the atom • Atoms have a specific arrangement. • Nucleus Small, dense, positively charged • in the center of an atom. • Electrons Surround the nucleus. • Negative charge.

  11. What are these? a) atoms b) nucleus c) electrons d) protons e) neutrons f) isotope g) atomic number(Z)

  12. Atomic Symbols • Each element is assigned a unique symbol. • arsenic As potassium K • barium Ba nickel Ni • carbon C nitrogen N • chlorine Cl oxygen O • hydrogen H radon Rn • helium He titanium Ti • gold Au uranium U • Each symbol consists of 1 or 2 letters. The first is capitalized and the second is lower case. • Symbol may not match the name - often had a different name to start with. • Some elements (about 11) the names were not in English. E.g., Sodium-Na (natrium-latin), • potassium-K(kalium-latin).

  13. Atomic masses • Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons and electrons. • Almost all of the mass of an atom comes from the protons and neutrons. • All atoms of the same element will have the same number of protons. The number of neutrons may vary - isotopes. • Most elements exist as a mixture of isotopes.

  14. Isotopes • *Atoms of the same element but having different masses. • *All isotopes of an element have same atomic number • *Each isotope has a different number of neutrons. • Isotopes of hydrogen H H H • Isotopes of carbon C C C 1 1 2 1 3 1 13 6 14 6 12 6

  15. 31 15 138 56 238 92 P Ba U The atomic symbol & isotopes • Isotopic symbol: atomic symbol showing atomic number (Z) and mass number (A) • Determine the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in each of the following. 2+

  16. Isotopes • Most elements occur in nature as a mixture of isotopes. • Element Number of stable isotopes • H 2 • C 2 • O 3 • Fe 4 • Sn 10 • This is one reason why atomic masses are not whole numbers. They are based on averages.

  17. Average atomic masses • Most elements exits as a mixture of isotopes. • Each isotope may be present in different amounts. • The masses listed in the periodic table reflect the world-wide average for each isotope. • One can calculate the average atomic weight of an element if the abundance of each isotope for that element is known.

  18. Average atomic masses • Example. • Silicon exists as a mixture of three isotopes. Determine it’s average atomic mass based on the following data. • Isotope Mass (u) Abundance • 28Si 27.976 9265 92.23 % • 29Si 28.976 4947 4.67 % • 30Si 29.973 7702 3.10 %

  19. What is a mass spectrometer? • Mass spectrometer measures masses of different isotopes of an elements and their fractional or percentages abundance. (figure 7.7, page 283) • As a reference point, we use the • atomic mass unit (u) - 1/12th mass of a 12C atom.

  21. How do you calculate average Atomic Mass? • Ma x a + Mb x b • ------------------------ = AAM • 100 • Ma = mass of isotope a • Mb = mass of isotope b • a = percent abundance of a • b = percent abundance of b • AAM = Average atomic mass (Reported • on the Periodic Table)

  22. How do you calculate average Atomic Mass? Ma x a + Mb x b = AAM Ma = mass of isotope a Mb = mass of isotope b a = fractional abundance of a b = fractional abundance of b AAM = Average atomic mass (Reported on the Periodic Table)

  23. Gallium in nature consists of two isotopes, gallium-69, with a mass of 68.926 u and a fractional abundance of 0.601; and gallium-71, with a mass of 70.925 u and a fractional abundance of 0.399. • Calculate the weighted average atomic mass of gallium. • 1) Ma x a + Mb x b = AAM • Ma x a(%) + Mb x b(%) • 2) ----------------------------------- = AAM • 100

  24. Ma (69Ga ) =68.926 u, • a = percent abundance of 69Ga = 0.601 x 100 • Mb (71Ga ) = 70.925 u, • b = percent abundance of 71Ga = 0.399 x 100 • We can obtain an equation with one unknown, AAM. • AAM = 68.926x(0.601 x 100)+70.925 x(0.399x100) • 100 • AAM (Ga) = 4142.5 + 2829.9 • 100 • AAM (Ga) = 6972.3 = 69.723 • 100 • AAM (Ga) = 69.7 u (amu)

  25. Periodic Table • Periodic table is an arrangement of all known element according to their atomic number and chemical properties.

  26. Who is Dmitri Mendeleev? • Mendeleev, Dmitri (1834-1907): Russian chemist • Mendeleev is best known for • his work on the periodic table; • arranging the 63 known • elements into a Periodic • Table based on Atomic Mass

  27. Dimitri Mendeleev created this, the original, periodic table.
