Atom
basic unit of matter, 118 types
element
simplest substance, made of only 1 type of atom
“seeing atoms”
STM magnified 10^8x
English/Latin
Origins of element names
allotrope
a different form of an element
oxygen allotropes
oxygen gas (O2), ozone (O3)
carbon allotropes
graphite, diamond, buck minster fullerene
compound
composed of at least 2 different atoms bounded together
pure substance
have a constant composition, elements and compounds
mixture
2 or more pure substances physically mixed together (not bounded)
can be separated by physical means (eg. distillation, filtration)
homogenous mixture
components are uniformly distributed (looks same throughout)
examples of homogenous mixtures
salt water, air, 14 karat gold (also example of alloy)
alloy
mixture of a metal with 1 or more elements
heterogenous mixture
components are not evenly distributed (you can see different components)
examples of heterogenous mixtures
oil and water, orange juice, blood
distillation
separation technique of a liquid mixture that depends on a difference in boiling points
for homogenous mixtures (solutions)
filtration
separation technique of heterozygous mixture
depends on size of particles
properties of matter
physical property, chemical property
physical property
can be observed without changing the chemical identity
examples of physical property
mass, volume, color, melting point
physical change
affects only the physical properties
example of physical change
ice (H2O) —> water (H2O) —> steam (H2O)
chemical property
observed when a substance reacts
chemical change (aka chemical reaction)
process that produces 1 or more new substances
evidence of a chemical change
gas is produced, precipitate is formed, heat is absorbed or released, light is released, color change
precipitate
insolvable solid produced when 2 clear liquids react
elephant toothpaste demo
H2O2 —> (NaI) H2O(l) + O2 (g)
NaI
catalyst (speeds up a chem reaction)
paper chromatography
process used to separate components of a mixture
absorbent
attracts and absorbs the materials to be separated
solvent
carries the materials to be separated
capillary action
solvent “climbs up” the absorbent
democritus, ancient Greece, 400 BCE (idea)
The idea that all matter is composed of atoms
Atoms
uncuttable
laws lead to 1st atomic theory
Law of definitie proportions, law of conservation of mass, law of multiple proportions
Law of definite proportions
any sample of a compound always has the same composition
law of definite proportions example
water is always 11.2% H and 88.8% O
Law of conservations of mass
matter cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed
law of conservation of mass example
S+O2—>SO2
Law of multiple proportions
diffe3rent compounds have different mass proportions
law of multiple proportions example
N2O is different than NO2
John Dalton 1803
1st atomic theory that was based on evidence
Half true (John Dalton)
All matter is made of indivisible atoms
All atoms of an element are identical
True (John Dalton)
Atoms of different elements have different physical and chemical properties
Atoms of different elements combine in simple, whole number ratios to form compounds
Chemical reactions consist of the combination, separation, and rearrangement of atoms
Marble
Dalton’s atom, indivisible and no different parts
JJ Thomson (1897)
made cathode ray tube
Thomson discovery
tiny, negatively charged particles found in all atoms
Thomson conclusion
the atom is not indivisible, the atom could be broken down into smaller particles.
atoms are natural, so there must be something positive inside the atom to balance the change
Cathode ray tube
“Light” was affected by a magnet charged plates (attracted to +, repelled by -)
purpose of charge to mass ratio
determine the mass of the particles (1000x less than the mass of a H atom)
Plum pudding model
the electrons were embedded in a “sphere” of positive charge
Rutherford’s gold foil experiment results
1 in 8000 alpha particles bounced back
alpha particles
massive, positively charged particles released by radioactive materials
nucleus
rutherford’s discovery
rutherford’s atom
nucleur atom
nucleus is…
positvely charged, most of the atoms mass, tiny part of an atom’s volume, dense (2.3×10^14 g/cm³)
Isotopes
atoms with the same number of protons but different number of nuetrons
particles
electron, proton, nuetron
electron (abr)
e-
proton (abr)
p+
nuetron (abr)
n0
mass of electron
0.000549
mass of proton
1.007276
mass of nuetron
1.008605
electron location
electron cloud
proton and nuetron location
nucleus
ion
charged atom (or group of atoms)
cation
postively charged ion
union
negatively charged ion
(average) atomic mass
the mass of an atom, measured in atomic mass units amu
1 amu
1/12 the mass of a carbon -12 atom (1.66×10^-24g)
weighted average
atomic mass listed in the periodic table is —— of all naturally occurring isotopes
