Particle theory
by Democritus; all matter consists of small, indivisible particles
Aristotle's view on matter
continuous, composed of a single substances (hyle)
Lavoisier
Law of Conservation and Mass
Law of Conservation and Mass
mass is neither created nor destroyed
Proust
Law of Definite Proportions
Law of Definite Proportions
specific substances always contain elements in the same ratio by mass
Dalton
Law of Multiple Proportions
Law of Multiple Proportions
if two or more different compounds are composed of the same two elements, the ratio of masses of the second element combined with a certain mass of the first element is always a ratio of small whole numbers
Cathode ray tube
evacuated glass tube with 2 metal electrodes
Cathode
negative electrode
Anode
positive electrode
Cathode Ray
stream of electrons that travel from cathode to anode; cause the tube to glow
What did experiments of the cathode ray tube show?
showed that rays were deflected by a magnetic field and away from a negatively charged plate
Thomson
noted for discovery of electron; found the charge to mass ratio; found that electrons had a negative charge
Millikan
conducted Oil Drop Experiment
Significance of Oil Drop Experiment
confirmed that electrons are negatively charged, calculated the charge on electron
What discovery did the knowledge of electrons lead to?
that there must be a positive charge to balance negative electrons; atoms must contain other particles
How were the oil drops controlled?
kept the same, rose, or fell
Rutherford
Gold Foil Experiment, "planetary model"
Gold Foil Experiment
alpha particles bombarded thin gold foil
Modern atomic theory
1) different kinds of atoms (isotopes), 2) atoms can be destroyed by nuclear reactions
Thomson's plum pudding model
sphere filled with fluid (pudding), had electrons (plums)
Crook's tube
device that produces a glowing stream of electrons
S-cloud
ground state, spherical
P-cloud
excited state, hour glass shaped
Chadwick
discovered the neutron
What part of an atom interacts in a chemical change?
electron
Electronic structure
arrangement of electrons
Electromagnetic radiation is...
energy that travels through space in the form of electromagnetic waves
Another name for electromagnetic radiation
radiant energy
Types of EM
gamma, x-ray, UV, IR, visible, radio, microwaves
measurable properties of waves
speed, wavelength, and frequency
Frequency
number of waves that occur in a certain amount of time, unit = Hz
Wavelength
distance between identical points of successive waves, unit = m
speed
distance/time, unit = M/S
Relationship between frequency and wavelength
inversely proportional
What does amount of energy depend on?
temperature
Planck's hypothesis
Energy can be emitted or absorbed only in discrete amounts (in whole numbers of quanta)
Quantized energy versus continuous energy
stairs = specific, ramp = continuous
quanta
amounts of energy too small for us to notice
Einstein
photoelectric effect
Photoelectric effect
a phenomenon in which electrons are ejected from the surface of certain metals exposed to light of at least a certain minimum frequency
Photon
particle of light
How did Einstein explain the photoelectric effect?
he suggested that a beam of light is really a stream of particles; if the photon has enough energy it can free an electron from the metal
When can there be no photoelectric effect?
if the wavelength is greater than the max wavelength and E is greater than min energy
threshold frequency
frequency required for electrons to be freed from the metal
Difference between continuous and line spectrum
Continuous: all wavelengths, line: specific wavelengths
What happens when excited electron returns to ground state?
gives off energy in the form of EM radiation
Ground state
N=1, lowest energy state of system
Excited state
N>1, energy state higher than ground state
What color does Hydrogen gas emit when moving from excited to ground state?
violet, blue, green, red
Bohr
theory and model of the hydrogen atom; adopted Planck's idea that energies assoc. with electrons must be quantized
In absence of external electric and magnetic fields, cathode rays
travel in a straight line from cathode to anode
When there is a magnetic field applied to a cathode ray tube...
rays curve at right angles to the magnetic field
If a positively charged particle is directed between positively and negatively charged plates...
it will bend towards the negatively charged plate
What was discovered in the cathode ray tube experiment?
1) that cathode rays consist of negatively charged particles, 2) the charge to mass ratio, 3) that they travel from cathode to anode
Why did some oil drops have different charges?
some drops had more electrons than others
Charges on top and bottom plate
top = positive, bottom = negative
Gold Foil Experiment led to discovery of the...
nucleus
Most particles directed at the gold foil passed straight through. This led to the conclusion that...
atoms are mostly empty space
The backward deflection of alpha particles in the Gold Foil Experiment gave evidence of an atom's...
nucleus
A nuclear particle with about the same mass as a proton but no electrical charge is a...
neutron
Angles of deflected particles led to what conclusion?
positive region at the center of the atom
the nucleus is...
1) very dense, 2) positive charge, 3) makes up most of mass of the atom
