Atomic Theory of Matter
|
Dalton:
-each element is composed of extremely small particles called atoms -all atoms of a given element are identical, but they differ from those of any other element -atoms are neither created nor destroyed in any chemical reaction -a given compound always has the same relative numbers and kinds of atoms |
|
Conservation of Matter
|
Lavosier:
-matter can be neither created nor destroyed |
|
Law of Constant Composition
|
Proust:
-a given compound always contains the same elements in the same proportions by mass |
|
Atom
|
Democritus:
-all matter in the world is composed of tiny indivisible particles (atoms) |
|
Positive and Negative Charges
|
Ben Franklin discovered:
-opposite charges attract -like charges repel |
|
Negative particles
|
Discovered by Thomson:
-named them electrons |
|
Electrons
|
-negative charge
-not within nucleus -very small, without mass |
|
Protons
|
-positively charged
-within nucleus -large, with mass (1 AMU) |
|
Neutrons
|
-no charge
-within nucleus -large, with mass (1 AMU) |
|
formula for neutrons
|
atomic mass unit- atomic #
*round up AMU |
|
Ion
|
anything that's charged
|
|
Isotope
|
-same atomic #, different atomic mass
ex: Carbon 13 and Carbon 14 |
|
Mass Defect
|
-difference between calculated mass of the nucleus and the actual mass of the nucleus
|
|
Nuclear Shell Model
|
-most stable are a 1:1 ratio
-2nd most stable are a 1:5:1 ratio |
|
Nuclear Reactions
|
-any reaction that affects the nucleus
|
|
Alpha Particles
|
-usually produced by heavy atoms
-both neutrons and protons must be reduced formula: atomic # decreases by 2, and AMU increases by 4 |
|
Beta Particles
|
-neutron/proton ratio is large, more neutrons than protons (wants to lose neutrons)
formula: atomic # increases by 1, AMU stays the same |
|
Positron Emission and Electron Capture
|
-too many protons
|
|
Alpha Decay
|
-heavy elements
-too many protons and neutrons |
|
Beta Decay
|
-too many neutrons
|
|
Cathode Ray
|
-radiation that comes from a cathode ray
|
