LecturePLUS Timberlake 2
Atomic Theory
Atoms are building blocks of elements
Similar atoms in each element
Different from atoms of other elements
Two or more different atoms bond in simple
ratios to form compounds

but different numbers of neutrons.
Atoms of the same element (same atomic
number) with different mass numbers

Masses of Atoms
A scale designed for atoms gives their small
atomic masses in atomic mass units (amu)
An atom of 12C was assigned an exact mass of
12.00 amu
Relative masses of all other atoms was
determined by comparing each to the mass of 12C
An atom twice as heavy has a mass of 24.00
amu. An atom half as heavy is 6.00 amu.
LecturePLUS Timberlake 24
Atomic Mass
Listed on the periodic table
Gives the mass of “average” atom of each
element compared to 12C
Average atom based on all the isotopes and their
abundance %
Atomic mass is not a whole number
