Periodic TablePeriodic Table

Atoms make up all matterAtoms make up all matter

Elements are any material that is made up Elements are any material that is made up of only one type of atomof only one type of atom

Elements are organized onto the periodic Elements are organized onto the periodic tabletable

Each element is designated an atomic Each element is designated an atomic symbol on the periodic tablesymbol on the periodic table

An Atom is made up of three parts:An Atom is made up of three parts: ProtonsProtons NeutronsNeutrons ElectronsElectrons

ElectronsElectrons

Electrons surround the nucleus in an Electrons surround the nucleus in an electron cloudelectron cloud

Electrons carry a negative chargeElectrons carry a negative charge

The atom is mostly empty spaceThe atom is mostly empty space

Electron Cloud ModelElectron Cloud Model

Why don’t we pass through one another?Why don’t we pass through one another?

Electrical repulsion – two electrons with Electrical repulsion – two electrons with negative charges will repel each othernegative charges will repel each other

ProtonsProtons

Protons and neutrons are bound to the Protons and neutrons are bound to the atomic nucleusatomic nucleus

Protons carry a positive chargeProtons carry a positive charge

Protons are identified by Protons are identified by Atomic numberAtomic number

atom is electrically neutral: Number of atom is electrically neutral: Number of protons = number of electrons; protons = number of electrons;

NeutronsNeutrons

Neutron has no electrical charge, but the Neutron has no electrical charge, but the same mass as a protonsame mass as a proton

Protons and neutrons are called nucleonsProtons and neutrons are called nucleons

Mass given to each proton and neutron is 1Mass given to each proton and neutron is 1

Atomic MassAtomic Mass

• Electrons are so small they are considered Electrons are so small they are considered negligible in massnegligible in mass

• Atomic mass is measured in the unit – Atomic mass is measured in the unit – amuamu Atomic Mass UnitAtomic Mass Unit

Agenda Bell work• Notes: Mass Number,

Isotopes and Ions

• Practice WS

• History of the Atom Project

• Where is each particle below found? What is it’s charge?– Proton– Neutron– electron

• Define the following:– Atomic Number– Atomic Mass

• Finish yesterdays WS

Isotopic NotationIsotopic Notation

Hydrogen - 2, has one proton and one Hydrogen - 2, has one proton and one neutronneutron

Hydrogen - 3, has one proton and two Hydrogen - 3, has one proton and two neutronsneutrons

Ions

Atoms that gain or lose electrons

Lose electrons – positive in charge

Gain electrons – negative in charge

Hydrogen that has lost an electron

H+1

Hydrogen that has gained an electron

H-1
