First t prpse Atms Matter was made up f Different kinds f atms have Believed that atms culd nt be Thugh nt crrect abut everything, the belief in the existence f was far ahead f it s time. Ideas were met with ARISTOTLE (& Plat) 384-322 B.C. Criticized and rejected He did nt believe existed, s atms Because Aristtle was s influential, Demcritus atmic ideas were Aristtle believed in the Matter is made f Aristtle had such great influence that the existence f atms went unchallenged fr mre than 2000 years!

Examples f things that were wrng: Defining the ATOM Atms are Prtns, Neutrns, Electrns Istpes atms can have different masses Atms are s small that a slid cpper penny cntains 2.9 x 10 22 atms, which is almst 5 trillin times the wrld ppulatin!!

HOW ATOMS DIFFER Imprtant Atmic Terms: ATOMIC MASS UNITS Atmic Number (Z) - Fund Als the number f in a Mass Number (A) - Fund Exact Atmic Mass f the mass number based n the mass f a prtn and neutrn in nn-runded versins. Fund Average Atmic Mass - Fund Atmic Mass Units ( ) are defined as This is an arbitrarily selected standard because the exact mass f a single atm in grams is t small t be practical. It is nearly (but nt exactly) equal t r (see table) Exact Atmic Mass - S it s a decimal instead f a whle number Refer: Average Atmic Mass A weighted average f all knwn : Based n the Each istpe s cntributin is calculated by: Then the is fund. Example: Carbn has three istpes, but C-14 des nt have a majr effect n the mass s we can ignre it fr calculatins. C-12 has a relative abundance f 98.89% and C-13 has an abundance f 1.11%. Calculate the Average Atmic Mass. C-12 s cntributin: (12.000) * (0.9889) = 11.8668 C-13 s cntributin: (13.00335) * (0.0111) = 0.1443 Sum the cntributins: 11.8668 + 0.1443 = 12.011 Or yu can slve it all at nce: (12.000 * 0.9889) + (13.00335 * 0.0111) = 12.011 Average Atmic Mass
