New cards
How did JJ Thomson discover the negatively charged particles in an atom
Experimenting with gas discharge tubes
2
New cards
Describe Ernest Rutherford experiment and what is the significance of his experiment.
He used a thin sheet of gold foil to shoot alpha particles at foil. The significance showed atoms are made of small positive nucleus.
3
New cards
Proton
positively charged particle
4
New cards
Location of proton
nucleus (+)
5
New cards
Neutron
A subatomic particle that has no charge and that is found in the nucleus of an atom
6
New cards
Electron
A subatomic particle that has a negative charge and found outside the nucleus
7
New cards
What is the atomic number of nitrogen
7
8
New cards
What information does the atomic number of an atom provide?
The charge
9
New cards
Atoms are identified by the number of
protons
10
New cards
Which subatomic particles make up the major portion of an atoms mass
Protons and neutrons
11
New cards
How many valence electrons does carbon have?
4 valence electrons
12
New cards
Valence electrons in oxygen
6 valence electrons
13
New cards
If you change the protons...
you change the element
14
New cards
If you change the electrons...
you change the charge and it is the same element
15
New cards
If you change neutrons
It is the same element but heavier
16
New cards
Isotopes are atoms of the same element and have the same number of
Protons but different numbers of neutrons
17
New cards
Ions are atoms of the same element that have the same number of \_________ but different numbers of \___________
Protons and electrons
18
New cards
What happens to the number of protons in the nucleus when this occurs?
Decreases
19
New cards
What happens to the number of electrons in the nucleus when this occurs?
Increases
20
New cards
What happens to the number of neutrons in the nucleus when this occurs?
Stays the same
21
New cards
An atom of nitrogen becomes N3-. When this occurs the nitrogen atom
Loses electrons
22

New cards
The majority of elements in the periodic table are
metals
28
New cards
Why did Dmitri Mendeleev use the word "periodic" to name the periodic table or elements
It means they repeat themselves
