Atom

[ATOMIC MODEL]

______ is the smallest identifiable unit of matter - identifiable meaning one can assign names to it ( the name being the element , e.g copper, hydrogen, carbon, etc)

[ATOMIC MODEL]

He is known for the plum pudding model

10

15
New cards

bombarding beryllium with polonium

[ATOMIC MODEL]

James Chadwick discovered the uncharged neutrons by bombarding ______ with polonium

16
New cards

Robert Millikan

[ATOMIC MODEL]

Measured the elementary electric charge (I.e. the real value “-1” or “+1” in coloumbs through the oil drop experiment)

17
New cards

Robert Millikan

[ATOMIC MODEL]

He is known for the oil drop experiment

18
New cards

Neil Bohr

[ATOMIC MODEL]

Proposed that electrons reside in energy levels/shells outside the nucleus → planetary model

19
New cards

Neil Bohr

[ATOMIC MODEL]

He is known for the planetary model

20
New cards

Werner Heisenberg

[ATOMIC MODEL]

Formulated the uncertainty principle , stating that one cannot accurately determine both the momentum and position of an electron at the same time (as if arguing againts the idea of fixed energy levels)

21
New cards

Ewin Schrodinger

[ATOMIC MODEL]

Improved on Bohr’s ideas and devised the quantum model where electrons lie dynamically in electron clouds rather than in fixed energy levels.

22
New cards

Ewin Schrodinger

[ATOMIC MODEL]

He is known for the Quantum M odel /Electron Cloud Model

23
New cards

Nucleons

[ATOMIC MODEL]

Since protons and neutrons both belong to the nucleus , they are sometimes called _____

24
New cards
  • Atomic number (Proton)

  • Mass number (Atomic mass)

[ATOMIC MODEL]

The nucleons give rise to the:

  • ______ → protons

  • ______ → neutrons + protons

25
New cards

Atomic Mass

[ATOMIC MODEL]

Mass number is also known as _____

SUB-ATOMIC PARTICLES [DIAGRAM]:

27
New cards
  • A= mass number

  • Z = atomic number

NOTE: How to find the number of electrons?

Under the assumption that the element is neutral (no charge) it will only be neutralize if the number of protons and electrons are equivalent so # proton = # electron
