Atomic Structur Lss than ninty yars ago scintists blivd that atoms wr tiny solid sphrs lik minut snookr balls. Sinc thn it has bn discovrd that atoms ar not compltly solid but hav innr and outr parts. To know about th sub-atomic particls and thir proprtis To intrprt information givn on sub-atomic particls. A cntral nuclus Outr shll or orbit To mak a modl atom, a golf ball could b usd to rprsnt th nuclus and th outrmost row of sats in an Olympic Stadium could rprsnt an Aftr many xprimnts atoms wr brokn up into smallr particls calld lctrons, protons and nutrons. Ths particls hav diffrnt proprtis. 4 nutrons 3 protons 3 lctrons n p n p n n p Protons hav a positiv charg Elctrons hav a ngativ charg Nutrons hav no charg ( thy ar nutral) What can you say about th ovrall charg of this atom? This atom could b drawn in svral ways to show th sam information. W could r-draw this atom of lithium to show whr positiv and ngativ particls ar found OR w can summariz th numbrs of ach kind of particl. 3p 4n 7 3Li (2,1) Protons dtrmin whthr an atom is an atom of gold, lad or whatvr. Elctrons hav can hlp to balanc th protons to mak th atom nutral but can also caus atoms to bcom chargd Nutrons hav no charg but thy ar about th sam mass as protons and hlp giv th nuclus xtra wight. Elctrons ar much lightr ( / th mass of a proton) 1 Which particl is found in shlls around th nuclus 2 Whr is most of th mass of an atom found? 3 Look at th numbrs usd to dscrib th lithium atom. What do ths parts man? 7= 3= 2,1= 4 Complt th following tabl Proton Positiv charg Mass = 1 Elctron Mass = 0.0005 &!$ Found in th nuclus Mass=
Nuclus Numbrs Th two numbrs usd to dscrib th nuclus of an atom ar calld th mass numbr (=protons + nutrons) and th atomic numbr (=protons only). To us dfinitions of mass and atomic numbrs to dtrmin nuclar structurs To rcall how nutral atoms ar balancd 16 Q1 Why is hydrogn th odd-on-out? Q2 Scintists us atomic numbr to lmnts in ordr, if mass numbr was usd instad how would this ordr chang?
Isotops A sampl of pur chlorin dos not contain idntical atoms. Som of its atoms ar havir than othrs. Howvr apart from thir xtra mass, thy smll and bhav th sam. To rlat mass and atomic numbrs to amounts of subatomic particls To know what an isotop is. Lightr chlorin atom Ratio of atoms Havy : Light : Havir chlorin atom Molculs of chlorin ar diatomic and so ar writtn as Cl 2 17p 18n 17p 20n This chlorin atom has th symbol and numbrs Cl 35 17 (2,8,7) Th havir atom of chlorin has th symbol and numbrs Cl (,, ) Atoms of th sam lmnt which hav th sam numbr of diffrnt numbrs of ar calld isotops.
