1 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter What is the current atomic model? Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space, such as gases, solids, and liquids. Matter is not sound, heat, or light these are forms of energy. An atom is a very small particle that makes up all matter.

2 Parts of the Atom The nucleus is the region located in the center of the atom. A particle with a positive charge is a proton. A particle with a negative charge is an electron. A neutron has no charge. 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter Atomic-force microscopes show the surfaces of atoms.

3 Parts of the Atom (cont.) 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter

4 The Size of Atoms 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter Protons, neutrons, and electrons are all smaller than the atom.

5 Historical Evidence of Atoms 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter Democritus ( B.C.) was the first to propose that atoms were indivisible solid spheres with no holes.

6 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter The Law of Conservation of Mass A chemical reaction rearranges atoms of one substance into another substance with different properties. The total mass of the starting materials is always equal to the total mass of the product.

7 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter The Law of Definite Proportions Any pure compound always contains the same elements in the same proportion. Water from your kitchen is the same as water in a glacier on Mars. H 2 O: two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom

8 Dalton s Atomic Model 1. All matter is made up of atoms. 4.1 Atoms Basic Units of Matter 2. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. 3. Atoms of different elements combine in whole-number ratios. 4. Each element is made of a different kind of atom. 5. The atoms of different elements have different masses and properties.

17 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom How were electrons discovered? Scientists have put together a detailed model of atoms and their parts. Cathode-ray tubes were used in early experiments on atoms.

18 How were electrons discovered? (cont.) A cathode ray is a stream of particles that can be seen when an electric current passes through a vacuum tube. The ray travels from a negatively charged disk at one end to a positively charged disk at the other end. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

19 Thomson s Experiments 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Thomson discovered the cathode rays did not travel in a straight line, but bent towards the positively charged plate.

20 Thomson s Experiments (cont.) 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Opposite charges attract each other. Thomson concluded the cathode ray must have a negative charge and named the particles electrons.

21 Thomson s Atomic Model Thomson proposed that an atom was a positively charged sphere. Electrons mixed in to balance the charge. This is often called the Plum Pudding Model 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

22 Discovering the Nucleus 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom In Rutherford s gold foil experiment, particles were shot through a thin sheet of gold into a detector behind the foil.

23 Discovering the Nucleus (cont.) Rutherford predicted the path of the particles would bend only slightly because the particles would not come upon a charge large enough to strongly repel them. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

24 Discovering the Nucleus (cont.) Most of the particles did pass straight through. Some particles were strongly bounced to the side. One in about 8000 bounced completely backwards. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

25 Discovering the Nucleus (cont.) If the positive charge was spread evenly, all the particles would have passed through the foil with only a small direction change. Only something with a larger mass and positive charge could cause some of the particles to bounce backwards. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

26 Rutherford s Atomic Model 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

27 Rutherford s Atomic Model (cont.) The positively charged nucleus is in the center of an atom. Electrons with a negative charge travel around empty space surrounding the nucleus. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

28 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Completing Rutherford s Model Rutherford also discovered the proton, a particle with a positive charge. Rutherford knew the mass of a proton, but could not account for the total mass of an atom. Rutherford s theory was later confirmed when the existence of the neutron a neutral atomic particle with a mass similar to a proton but without a charge was proved.

29 Weakness in the Rutherford Model How are electrons arranged? 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Why do different elements have different chemical properties? Why are some elements more reactive than others?

30 Bohr and the Hydrogen Atom Rutherford thought the electrons moved around the nucleus like a ball swinging on a rope at any distance. Bohr thought electrons traveled in circles with a certain diameter. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

31 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Bohr and the Hydrogen Atom (cont.) Bohr studied hydrogen because it has only one electron. When atoms are excited, they absorb and release energy as light.

32 The Spectrum of Hydrogen 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Light passing through a prism is broken into a continuous spectrum of light red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet blend into each other.

33 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom The Spectrum of Hydrogen (cont.) Ultraviolet rays have shorter wavelengths and higher energies than visible light. Infrared light has longer wavelengths and lower energies than visible light.

34 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom The Spectrum of Hydrogen (cont.) When excited, hydrogen and neon give off unique narrow bands of light on the spectrum that are called spectral lines.

35 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Spectral Lines and Energy Levels Each color in a spectral line is a different wavelength and different energy. Electrons can have only certain amounts of energy. Electrons can only move at a certain distance from the nucleus that corresponds to that amount of energy.

36 Spectral Lines and Energy Levels (cont.) The region in space that an electron can move about the nucleus is called the energy level. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom

37 Electrons in the Bohr Atom 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom The electrons can move only in an orbit that is a set distance from the nucleus. Each energy level can hold a certain number of electrons. Bohr s Model

38 Electrons in the Bohr Atom (cont.) Electrons fill the energy levels in order. The lowest level is filled first. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom The second level has no electrons until the first level is full. The first level holds 2 electrons, the second level holds 8 electrons. The last energy level may or may not be filled.

39 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Electrons in the Bohr Atom (cont.) This diagram shows how electrons are placed in the elements with atomic numbers 1 10.

40 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Bohr s Model and Chemical Properties Elements have different chemical properties because they have different numbers of electrons in their outer energy level.

41 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Bohr s Model and Chemical Properties Unreactive elements have the exact number of electrons needed to fill their outer energy level. (cont.) Elements with incomplete outer energy levels are likely to form compounds.

42 Limitations of Bohr s Model 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Energy levels were like circular orbits. Bohr s theory works for the simple hydrogen atom, but not for more complex elements. Atomic Model

43 The Electron Cloud Model The electron cloud is the region surrounding an atomic nucleus where an electron is most likely to be found. Electrons are more likely to be near the nucleus because they are attracted to the positive charge of the protons. 4.2 Discovering Parts of the Atom Electron Cloud Model
