The AtomYou cannot see the tiny fundamental particles that make up matter.
Yet, all matter is composed of such particles, called atoms
AtomAtom – the smallest particles of an element that retains its identity in a chemical reaction
Several early philosophers and scientists could not observe individual atoms, but still were able to propose ideas on the structure of atoms.

Democritus’s Atomic PhilosophyGreek philospher Democritus (460B.C – 370 B.C.)
was among the first to suggest the existence of atoms.
Democritus believed that matter consisted of tiny, indivisible and indestructible.
• Democritus’s ideas did not explain chemical behavior.
• Lacked experimental support, because his approach was not based on scientific method.
![Page 4: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Dalton’s Atomic TheoryThe modern process of discovery regarding atoms
began with John Dalton, an English chemist and school teacher.
Dalton used experimental methods and transformed Democritus’s ideas on atoms into scientific theory.
Dalton studied the ratios in which elements combine in chemical reactions.
Based on the results of his experiments, Dalton formulated hypotheses and theories to explain his observations.

Dalton’s Atomic Theory
According to Dalton’s atomic theory, and element is composed of only one kind of atom, and a compound is composed of particles that are chemical combinations of different kinds of atoms.
1. All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms
2. Atoms of the same element are identical. The atoms of any one element are different from those of any other element.
![Page 6: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Dalton’s Atomic Theory3. Atoms of different elements can physically mix together or
can chemically combine in simple whole-number ratios to form compounds.
4. Chemical reactions occur when atoms are separated, joined, or rearranged. Atoms of one element, however, are never changed into atoms of another element as a result of a chemical reaction.

The Atom
The radii of most atoms fall within the range of 5 x 10-11 m to 2 x 10-10m. (very small)
Individual atoms are visible with instruments such as scanning tunneling microscopes.

Subatomic ParticlesMost of Dalton’s atomic theory is accepted today.
Except, we now know atoms to be divisible.
Atoms can be broken down into smaller particles, called subatomic particlessubatomic particles.
There are 3 kinds of subatomic particles.
1.electrons2.Protons3.neutrons
![Page 10: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
ElectronsIn 1897, English physicist J.J. Thomson discovered
the electron.
ElectronsElectrons – negatively charged subatomic particles.
Dalton performed experiments that involved passing electric current through gases at low pressure.
![Page 11: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Cathode-Ray TubeSealed gases in glass tubes fitted at both end with
metal disks called electrodes.
Electrodes were connected to a source of electricity.
One electrode (anode) became positively charged. The other electrode (cathode) became negatively charged.
Result was a glowing beam (cathode ray) that traveled from the cathode to the anode.
![Page 12: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cathode-Ray Tube
Positively charged metal plate attracts the cathode ray, while a negatively charged plate repels it.
Thomson knew that opposite charges attract and like charges repel.
He hypothesized that a cathode ray is a stream of tiny negatively charged particles (electrons) moving at high speed.
![Page 13: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Cathode-Ray TubeTo test his hypothesis, Thomson set up an
experiment to measure the ratio of the charge of an electron to its mass.
He found this ratio to be constant.
In addition, the charge-to-mass ratio of electrons did not depend on the kind of gas in the tube or the type of metal used for the electrodes.
He concluded that electrons must be parts of the atoms of all elements.
![Page 14: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The ElectronAn electron carries exactly one unit of negative
charge
The electrons mass is 1/1840 the mass of a hydrogen atom.
How do negatively charged plates affect the path of cathode rays?
The negatively charged plate repels the cathode ray.
![Page 15: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Protons and NeutronsAfter a hydrogen atom loses an electron, what is left?
• Atoms have no net electric charge, they are electrically neutral
• Electric charges are carried by particles of matter
• Electric charges always exist in whole-number multiples of a single basic unit.
• When a given number of negatively charged particles combines with an equal number of positively charged particles, and electrically neutral particle is formed.
![Page 16: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Protons and NeutronsAfter a hydrogen atom loses an electron, what is left?
A particle with one unit of positive charge should remain when a typical hydrogen atom loses an electron.
In 1886, Eugene Goldstein observed a cathode-ray tube and found rays traveling in the direction opposite to that of the cathode rays.
He concluded they were positive particles. ProtonsProtons – positively charged subatomic particles.
![Page 17: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Protons and NeutronsEnglish physicist James Chadwick confirmed the
existence of another subatomic particle.
NeutronNeutron – subatomic particles with no charge but with a mass nearly equal to that of a proton.

Atomic NucleusJ.J. Thomson though that electrons were evenly
distributed throughout an atom filled uniformly with positively charged material.
Electrons stuck into a lump of positive charge.
This model of the atom was short-lived due to work of Ernest Rutherford, a former student of Thomson.
![Page 19: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Rutherford’s Gold-Foil Experiment In 1911, Rutherford used alpha particles (Helium atoms
that have lost their two electrons and have a double positive charge because of the two remaining protons) to test the current theory of atomic structure.
The experiment used a narrow beam of alpha particles directed at a very thin sheet of fold foil.
The alpha particles should have passed easily through the gold with only slight deflection.
![Page 20: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Rutherford’s Gold-foil ExperimentHowever, the great majority of alpha particles passed
straight through the gold atoms, without deflection.
Also, a small fraction of the alpha particles bounced off the gold foil at very large angles.
![Page 21: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Rutherford’s Gold-foil ExperimentBased on his experimental results, Rutherford
suggested a new theory of the atom.
He proposed that the atom is mostly empty space, thus explaining the lack of deflections of most of the alpha particles.
He concluded that all the positive charge and almost all the mass are concentrated in a small region that has enough positive charge to account for the great deflection .
NucleusNucleus – the tiny central core of an atom and is composed of protons and neutrons.
![Page 22: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Rutherford’s Atomic Model
Rutherford atomic model is know as the nuclear atom
In the nuclear atom, the protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus.
The electrons are distributed around the nucleus and occupy almost all the volume of the atom.
The nucleus is tiny compared with the atom as a whole.
Although an improvement over Thomson’s model of the atom, Rutherford’s model turned out to be incomplete and had to be modified (chapter 5)
![Page 23: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Questions
What are 3 types of subatomic particles?
Proton, neutron, & electrons.
How does the Rutherford model describe the structure of atoms?
A positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons, which occupy most of the volume.
![Page 24: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Questions
Describe Thomson’s and Millikan’s contributions to atomic theory.
Thomson – Cathode ray experiments which concluded that electrons must be parts of the atoms of all elements. Millikan determined the charge and mass of the electron.
What experimental evidence led Rutherford to conclude that an atom is mostly empty space?
The great majority of the alpha particles passed straight through the gold foil
![Page 25: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Questions
Compare Rutherford’s expected outcome of the gold-foil experiment with the actual outcome.
Expected all alpha particles to pass straight through with little deflection. Found that most passed straight through, but some particles were deflected at large angles and some bounced back.

Distinguishing Among Atoms
How are atoms of hydrogen different from atoms of oxygen?
Elements are different because they contain different number of protons.
Atomic numberAtomic number – of an element is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of that element.
Example – all hydrogen atoms have 1 proton and the atomic number of hydrogen is 1.
The atomic number identifies an element.
![Page 28: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Distinguishing Among Atoms
Most of the mass of an atom is concentrated in its nucleus and depends on the number of protons and neutrons.
Mass numberMass number – the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom
Example: Helium atom contains 2 protons and two neutrons, so its mass number is 4
If you know the atomic number and mass number of an atom of any element, you can determine the atom’s composition.
![Page 29: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Distinguishing Among Atoms
Example: Oxygen
Atomic number is 8 = number of p+ = e- (So oxygen has 8 electron s and 8 protons.)
Mass number is 16 = number of p+ plus the number of n0. (So oxygen has 8 neutrons)
Number of neutron = mass number – atomic number

Isotopes There are some elements that have different kinds of
atoms of the same element
Example – there are three different kinds of Neon atoms
IsotopesIsotopes – are atoms that have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
Because isotopes of an element have different numbers of neutrons, they also have different mass numbers.
Isotopes are chemically alike because they have identical numbers of protons and electrons, which are the subatomic particles responsible for chemical behavior.

Atomic Mass
Actual masses of individual atoms are small and impractical to work with.
It is more useful to compare the relative masses of atoms using a reference isotope as a standard
The carbon-12 atom was assigned a mass of exactly 12 atomic mass units.
Atomic mass unit (amu)Atomic mass unit (amu) – one twelfth of the mass of carbon-12 atom.
![Page 34: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Atomic Mass
In nature, most elements occur as a mixture of two or more isotopes.
Each isotope of an element has a fixed mass and a natural percent abundance.
Example – almost all naturally occurring hydrogen (99.9985%) is hydrogen-1.
The other two isotopes are present in trace amounts.
The atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.0079 amu, and Is very close to the mass of hydrogen-1 (1.0078 amu)
![Page 35: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Atomic Mass
The slight difference takes into account the larger masses, but smaller amounts of the other two isotopes of hydrogen.
Atomic massAtomic mass – of an element is a weighted average mass of the atoms in a naturally occurring sample of the element.
The atomic mass of copper is 63.546 amu. Which of copper’s two isotopes is more abundant: copper -63 or copper-65?
Atomic mass of 63.546 is closer to 63 than 65, thus copper-63 must be more abundant.
![Page 36: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Atomic Mass
Atomic mass = multiply the mass of each isotope by its natural abundance, expresses as a decimal, and then add the products.
Element X has two natural isotopes. The isotope with a mass of 10.012 amu has a relative abundance of 19.91%. The isotope with a mass of 11.009 amu has a relative abundance of 80.09%. Calculate the atomic mass of this element.
(10.012 amu x 0.1991) + (11.009 amu x 0.8009) (1.993 amu) + (8.817 amu)
Atomic mass = 10.810
![Page 37: Chapter 4 Atomic Structure](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062308/568131be550346895d9825b3/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Question
Copper – 63 has a mass of 62.93 amu and 69.2% abundance. Copper-65 has a mass of 64.93 amu and 30.8% abundance. What is copper’s average atomic mass?
(62.93 amu x 0.692) + (64.93 amu x 0.308) (43.548 amu) + (19.998 amu)
Atomic mass = 63.55
