ATOMS AND MOLECULES
THE ATOMIC THEORY OF MATTER
Law of Constant Composition- The relative numbers and kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound
- All samples of a given chemical compound have the same elemental composition
Example- Water (H2O) always contains 1 g of H for every 8 g of O
Law of Conservation of Mass (Matter)- The total mass of materials after a chemical reaction is equal to the total mass
before the chemical reaction
Law of Multiple Proportions- When two or more elements combine to form a compound, their masses in that
compound are in a fixed and definite ratio
- Elements combine in a ratio of small whole numbers
- If two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element combined with a fixed mass of the first element will be in ratios
of small whole numbers
THE ATOMIC THEORY OF MATTER
Law of Multiple Proportions
- C and O can combine to form CO and CO2
CO1.33 g O combine with 1.00 g C
CO2
2.66 g O combine with 1.00 g C
- Ratio of O is 2.66 g : 1.33 g = 2 : 1
THE ATOMIC THEORY OF MATTER
Dalton’s Atomic Theory
1. All matter (every element) is made up of very small particles called atoms
- Atoms are indivisible and indestructible
2. All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties
- Atoms of a given element are different from atoms of all other elements
THE ATOMIC THEORY OF MATTER
Dalton’s Atomic Theory
3. Compounds are formed from a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms
- A given compound always has the same relative number and kind of atoms
4. A chemical reaction is a rearrangement of atoms - Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction
THE ATOMIC THEORY OF MATTER
Modern atomic theory is more involved but based on Dalton’s theory
- Atoms can be destroyed by nuclear reactions but not by chemical reactions
- There are different kinds of atoms within an element (isotopes - different masses, same properties)
THE ATOMIC THEORY OF MATTER
THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE
Atom - Is the smallest particle of an element that retains the chemical
identity of the element- Is the basic building block of ordinary matter
- Made up of smaller particles (the building blocks of an atom) called subatomic particles
Three Types of Subatomic ParticlesElectron: possesses a negative (-) electrical chargeProton: possesses a positive (+) electrical charge
Neutron: has no charge (it is neutral)
THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE
Electronic Charge equals 1.602177 x 10-19 C(C = coulombs)
- Charges are usually expressed as multiples of the electronic charge
Charge of an electron = -1.602177 x 10-19 C = -1
Charge of a proton = +1.602177 x 10-19 C = +1
Atoms have no net electrical charge since they have equal number of electrons and protons
THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE
- Protons and neutrons have very large masses (about 2000 x) as compared to electrons
- Atoms generally have extremely small masses- Atomic Mass Unit (u) is used to express such small masses
1 u = 1.66054 x 10-24 g or 1 g = 6.02212 x 1023 u

THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE
- The center of an atom is small, dense, and positively chargedcalled the nucleus
- The nucleus contains all protons and neutrons and are referred to as necleons
- The nucleus is, therefore, positively charged and contributes about 99.9% of the mass of an atom
THE ATOMIC STRUCTURE
- The electrons move rapidly around the nucleus
- Outer region called the extranuclear region
- Account for most of the volume of an atom
Electron Cloud - Volume occupied by electrons
- Negatively charged
ATOMIC NUMBER (Z)
- The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom- determines the identity of the element
- Since atoms have no net electrical chargenumber of protons = number of electrons
Z = number of protons = number of electrons
MASS NUMBER (A)
- The sum of the number of protons and the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom
-The total number of subatomic particles in the nucleus of an atom
- The number of nucleons of an atom
A = number of protons + number of neutrons
number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = A - Z

An atom has an atomic number of 56 and a mass number of 138.What are the numbers of protons, electrons, and neutrons presentin the atom? What is the number of subatomic particles present
in the nucleus of the atom?
Number of protons = atomic number = 56Number of electrons = atomic number = 56
Number of neutrons = mass number – atomic number = 138-56 = 82Number of subatomic particles in the nucleus = mass number = 138
ATOMIC AND MASS NUMBERS
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF ATOMS
- The number of protons (the atomic number) characterizes an atom
- Electrons determine the chemical properties of an atom
- Atoms with the same atomic number have the same chemical properties
- Atoms with the same atomic number are atoms of the same element
Chapter 1 definition of An Element - Is a pure substance that cannot be reduced to a simpler substance
by normal chemical means
Chapter 2 definition of An Element- Is a pure substance in which all atoms present have the same
atomic number
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF ATOMS
ISOTOPES
- Atoms of an element with the same atomic number but different mass numbers
- Atoms of an element with the same number of protons and the same number of electrons but different numbers of neutrons
- Isotopes of an element have the same chemical propertiesbut slightly different physical properties
- The atomic number is usually omitted since it is the same for isotopes of a given element

AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS
- Determined by using the masses of an element’s various isotopes and their respective natural abundances
Units 1 u = 1.66054 x 10-24 g or 1 g = 6.02214 x 1023 u
u (amu): atomic mass unit
u is defined by assigning a mass of exactly 12 u to an atom of carbin-12 (reference point)
For an element with n isotopes which have atomic masses in u (m1, m2, m3,….., mn) and
natural abundances expressed as fractions (x1, x2, x3,……,xn)
Average Atomic Mass = m1x1 + m2x2 + m3x3 +….+ mnxn
The natural abundance is usually expressed as a percentage
Divide by 100 to convert to the decimal form (fractional abundance)
AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS
The mass spectrometer is an instrument used to measurethe masses and relative (natural) abundances of the
isotopes present in a sample of an element

AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS
Naturally occurring copper is 69.09% 63Cu, which has a relative mass of 62.93 u, and 30.91% 65Cu, which has a relative mass of
64.93 u. Calculate the average atomic mass of copper.
63Cunatural abundance = 69.09%
fractional abundance = 69.09/100 = 0.6909
65Cunatural abundance = 30.91%
fractional abundance = 30.91/100 = 0.3091
Average Atomic Mass = (62.93)(0.6909) + (64.93)(0.3091) = 63.5478 = 63.55 u
AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS
FORMULA MASS
- The sum of atomic masses of all the atoms present in the chemical formula of a substance
- Relative mass based on the carbon-12 relative-mass scale
-It is advisable to use two decimal places for atomic masses
