4.1 Defining the Atom

QuickTime™ and aSorenson Video 3 decompressorare needed to see this picture.

Atoms of element A are identical

Atoms of element B are identical, but different than element A

Atoms of element A and B can be physically mixed together

A and B can be chemically combined as a compound

Dalton Proposed1.All elements composed of tiny,

indivisible particles2. Atoms of an element are identical

& distinct from atoms of other elements

3. Atoms can form compounds, combining in simple whole-number ratios

4. Atoms can be rearranged (chemical reactions), but atoms of one element do not change into atoms of another element.

Deflected by magnet



Deflected by electrical charge


Calculated charge/mass ratio

The ratio of charge to mass was the same, regardless of gas in cathode tube.Conclusion? Electrons must be present and the same in all elements.

Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment

Alpha particles shot at a thin piece of gold foil did not pass right through with slight deflection. Instead,

most passed straight through. Some bounced right back!

Rutherford’s Gold Foil Experiment

Rutherford concluded that •Most of the atom is empty space•All of the positive charge

and almost all of the mass isConcentrated in the tiny core, “nucleus.”

composed of protons and neutrons.An idea of the size: Atom = football stadium

Nucleus = marble

4.3 Distinguishing Atoms

Atomic number = number of protons

Defines the element!

Atoms are electrically neutral

therefore atomic number also is thenumber of electrons

number of protons + number of neutrons

= mass number

Therefore

mass number - number of protons = number of neutrons

Atomic MassAtomic Mass Unit1/12 mass of an atom of carbon-12Since carbon 12 has 6 protons

and 6 neutrons,Mass of 1 proton is about 1amu

Why isn’t the atomic mass = atomic mass number?

Atomic MassWeighted average of the mass of all naturally occurring isotopes. To find atomic mass, calculate(Mass of isotope)•(%abundance as decimal)For each isotopeAnd add the results together

Atomic Mass

Carbon is98.89% Carbon-12 & 1.11% Carbon-13Its atomic mass would be(12amu•0.9889)+(13.03amu•0.0111) =

12.011 amu
