PROPERTIES OF ATOMS AND ELEMENTS


  1. Define the atom

    1. Atoms are the building blocks of all matter. Made up of protons and neutrons in the nucleus and electrons orbiting in shells

  2. History of modern atomic theory

    1. Discontinuous Theory - Democritus ~ 400 BCE

      1. atoms are the smallest unit of matter & are indivisible

    2. Modern Atomic Theory - John Dalton ~ 1803

      1. Each element consists of the same type of atom which is unique to that element

    3. Discovery of Electrons & Plum Pudding Model - JJ Thomson ~ 1897 & 1904

      1. Discovered electrons while experimenting with cathode ray tubes

      2. Plum pudding model showed atom as a positive sphere filled with electrons 

    4. Quanta/Photons - Albert Einstein ~ 1905

    5. Nuclear Atom Model - Ernest Rutherford ~ 1911

      1. Discovered nucleus from gold foil experiments

      2. Tiny densely positively charged core called nucleus with electrons orbiting around it

    6. Bohr Model - Niels Bohr ~ 1913

      1. Bohr’s Postulates: 

        1. Only orbits of certain radii, corresponding to certain energies, are permitted for the electron in the hydrogen atom

        2. An atom with an electron in a permitted orbit has a specific energy and is in an allowed energy state. An atom in an allowed energy state will not radiate energy, and therefore the electron will not spiral into the nucleus

        3. Energy is emitted or absorbed by the atom only as the atom changes from one allowed energy state to another. This energy is emitted or absorbed as a photon. 

    7. Discovery of Protons - Ernest Rutherfod ~ 1919

      1. Sent alpha particles in nuclei which causes them to emit particles called protons

    8. Electron Cloud Model - Erwin Schrodinger ~ 1926?

ELECTROSTATICS & CIRCUITS


  1. Electrostatics:

  1. Electrostatics

    1. The study of electric charges that can be collected and held in one place.

    2. neutral surface & neutral surface = no electrostatic force

  2. Static electricity

    1. Static electricity is caused by an imbalance of + & - charges within an atom

    2. Electrons & protons have same magnitude of charges but not same mass

      1. Protons are ~2000x the mass of electrons 

      2. electrons can move more than protons when acted on by an equal force b/c it has less mass & greater acceleration

  3. electric charge

    1. When a charged material touches another material it will gain or lose electrons 

  4. Polarization

    1. Separating of charges within an object

    2. EX: after rubbing a balloon on your hair it becomes negatively charged, when the - balloon is put on a neutral board it becomes polarized. The negative balloon attracts the protons to the surface of the board touching the balloon and the electrons move to the other side of the atom. 

  5. Charging

    1. How does a plastic strip become negatively/positively charged by rubbing?

      1. Rubbing a plastic strip = friction 

      2. If friction provides enough energy = electron transfer

      3. The other material should have a lesser electron affinity than plastic strip = gain electrons

      4. The other material should have a greater electron affinity than plastic strip = lose electrons

    2. Conduction

      1. direct  contact

      2. Actual transfer of electrons

      2. Negative field lines go inward(attract)

      3. More of a visual/hypothetical

      4. one  arrow

      5. The proximity of field lines to one another tell you how strong the electric field is


  1. Electric field between two plates

  1. electrostatic potential energy

    1. The amount of energy it takes to move a charge in an electric field

    2. Work increases electrostatic potential energy

    3. ΔPEE=Eqd  

    4. When a proton is transferred electrostatic potential energy is positive meaning it is increasing, for electrons it is negative meaning its decreasing

  2. electric potential difference

    1. ΔV=kqr

    2. ΔV=Ed

    3. does not depend on the transferred charge

      1. A: the spring has more elastic PE when compressed B: similarly the small charge has more PE when pushed closer to the charged sphere. The increased PE is the result of work input
