THE ATOM
Subatomic Particles
Quick review of atomic theory

• Democritus (400 BC) – matter indivisible. Coined word


atoms
• Dalton (1766-1844)– 5 postulates
• J.J.Thompson (1859-1940) – Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) –
discovered electron
– Plum pudding model
Quick review of atomic theory (cont)

• Rutherford – Gold Foil Expt- nucleus


– Nucleus small and positive
– Atom mostly empty space
• Goldstein- proton
• Chadwick – neutron
• Bohr- “Planetary Model” -electrons orbit
nucleus
• Quantum – “Electron Cloud Model”
orbitals
John Dalton’s Atomic Theory
(19th Century)
1) All matter is composed of small particles called atoms
2) All atoms of an element are identical in size, mass, and chemical
properties FALSE
3) Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particles or
destroyed FALSE
4) Different atoms combine in simple whole number ratios to form
compounds
5) In chemical reactions, atoms are separated, combined, or
rearranged

What is an atom?

• Definition
– smallest particle of an element that retains properties of the
element
II. The Subatomic Particles

Just how small is an atom?

Composition of Nucleus

a) Proton – positive (+1) charged particle of


nucleus

b) Neutron – neutral (0) charged particle of


nucleus

1
II. The Subatomic Particles
A. Protons (p+)
• Positively-charged (+1) subatomic
particle of nucleus
• Mass: 1.67 x 10-24 g or 1 amu (1840x more
massive than an electron!)
• Very high mass, but very tiny volume;
therefore extremely dense
• Discovered by Goldstein

II. The Subatomic Particles

B. Neutron (n0)
Neutral (0) subatomic particle
• ______
• Contained in the _______
nucleus
• Discovered by _________
Chadwick
• Mass: 1.67 x 10-24 g or 1 amu
(same as proton)

3
II. The Subatomic Particles
C. Electrons (e-)
• _________
Negatively- charged (-1) subatomic
particle (the charge is equal and
opposite to the charge of the proton)
Surrounding the nucleus
• __________
• Mass: 9.11 x 10-28 gram or 1/1840
amu (negligible compared to p+
and n0)
• Tiny mass but occupies the majority of
the volume of the atom

5
II. The Subatomic Particles

C. Electrons (e-)
• Each electron has an “electronic address”
• Each resides in a well defined energy level some
distance from the nucleus. The further from the
nucleus, the higher the energy level.
• Responsible for chemical bonding

6
Current Model of the Atom

• >99% of mass is in the nucleus


• Very small (there are 6.5 x1021 atoms in a drop of
water)
• Nucleus is held together by strong nuclear forces

7
Current Model of the Atom

• Spherically-shaped
• Small, dense positively-charged nucleus surrounded
by a cloud of negatively-charged electrons
• Most of the atom is empty space

VERY
DENSE

What makes an atom of one
element
different from an atom of another
element ?
Atomic Number
• Defn – number of protons in an atom
atomic number identifies atoms
• Protons are responsible for the nuclear
charge
• Atomic Number = p+
• How is periodic table arranged?
by increasing atomic number
• How many electrons do atoms have?
# electrons = # protons
+
+
+ NUCLEUS
+
+
III. Atomic Number and Mass Number
Mass number
is not the same as the
Atomic mass

• This is the big (or top) number shown on the


periodic table

• # of protons identifies the element

If for some reason the number of protons


changes (like a nuclear reaction), the
ELEMENT CHANGES!

3
III. Atomic Number and Mass Number
• Remember, an atom is the smallest particle of an element that
retains the identity of that element.
• When the number of protons (+) and the number of electrons (-)
are the same, the atom is neutral (has no net charge).
• An ion is a charged atom or group of atoms bonded together.

4
Atomic Number

• Remember this formula to remember the


atomic number:

APE
A = P or E
Atomic # = (Protons) or
(Electrons)

5
Practice
III. Atomic Number and Mass Number
1. Determine the number of protons in:
a. Fluorine 9
b. Magnesium 12
2. Identify the element:
a. 30 protons Zinc
b. 17 protons Chlorine
c. 11 p+ Sodium
d. 1 p+ Hydrogen

6
Mass Number

• Defn – total number of protons and neutrons

NOT SAME AS ATOMIC MASS!!!!!!


Cannot be found on periodic table

Hydrogen

1 NO NO NO NO NO!!!!
H
1.008

7
Mass Number vs Atomic Mass

They are not the same thing!!!

Mass Number = Protons + Neutrons

Atomic Mass is on the periodic table

The units for both are amu


(atomic mass units)

IV. The Subatomic Particles

B. Mass Number
Mass Number = p+ + n0
• Both neutrons and protons are
responsible for nearly all the atom’s
mass because electrons are so light
their mass is negligible.

9
IV. The Subatomic Particles

Ex: An oxygen atom has 8 protons and 8


neutrons and has a mass number = 16
__
Mass Number = p+ + n0

0
Mass Number

• Remember this formula to find # neutrons:

MAN
M–A=N
(Mass #) – (Atomic #) = Neutrons

1
Ex 1:

How many p+, e- and n0 are in an atom of Neon


with a mass # 22?
Neon’s atomic number is 10  ___ 10 p+
If this atom is electrically neutral, protons =
electrons  ___10 e-
Mass number = p++ n0
22 = 10 + n0
12 = no

2
Ex 2:

Determine which element has a mass # of 23


and contains 12 n0.
Mass number = p++ n0
23 = p+ + 12
11 = p+
p+ = atomic number
 the element with 11 protons is
_______________
Na (sodium)

3
Practice with Atomic number and Mass number
# of protons + # neutrons = mass number
A carbon atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons
12
has a mass number = ____
# of protons = atomic
number

The atomic number of


carbon is ___.
6

Number of electrons will equal the number of


protons for an atom with NO NET CHARGE

Practice

an oxygen atom, what nucleus remains?
