What are all substances made of?

Atoms

What are atoms split into?

Neutrons


Electrons


Protons

What is the electric charge of an atom?

No electric charge

Why do atoms have no electric charge?

They have the same amount of protons and electrons

What is the charge of neutrons?

Neutral charge (0)

What is the charge of electrons?

Negative charge (-1)

What is the charge of protons?

Positive charge (+1)

What is the mass of a neutron?

1 amu

What is the mass of an electron?

1/1840 amu

What is the mass of a proton?

1 amu

What is the radius of an atom?

0.1 nm

What is an element?

A substance that is made up of one kind of atom only, it is the smallest part if an element that can exist

What is the nucleus made up of?

Protons and neutrons


Nearly all the mass of an atom is in the nucleus

What is atomic number?

The amount of protons/electrons in the atom

What is mass number?

The amount of protons and neutrons in the atom

Around how many elements are in the periodic table?

100

How are compounds formed?

Compounds are formed from elements by chemical reactions

What do compounds contain?

Two or more elements chemically combined in fixed proportions

How can mixtures be separated?

Filtration, crystallisation, simple distillation, fractional distillation and chromatography

Atoms that have different mass numbers but the same atomic numbers are called?

Isotopes

What is relative atomic mass?

Is the average value that takes account of the abundance of the isotopes of the element.

How many electrons fill each shell?

Simple : 2,8,8,1


Advanced: 2,8,18,32

What on the periodic table can tell you the amount of valance electrons in an element?

The group number

What does the period number tell you about atoms?

How many electron shells there are

What are molecules?

A group of atoms that are bonded together

The further away the electrons are from the nucleus...

The more energy they have

How to separate compounds?

Through chemical reactions

What is a mixture?

Consists of two or more elements or compounds not chemically combined together.



Chemical properties remain unchanged

Fractional Distillation

Separates misable (completely mixed together) liquids. Separates liquids from a mixture of 2+ liquids



Have different bp's so one liquid evaporates before the other


Chromatography

Separates dissolved substances, that are coloured

Evaporation

Separates a dissolved substance from a salt solution

Simple Distillation

Separates solute and solvent

Crystallisation

Separates a solute from a solvent, liquid substance changes to a solid form as liquid has evaporated beyond solubility limit

Filtration

Separates an insoluble solid from a liquid

What is a mixtures composition?

Variable, can vary property amounts. But each substance retains its own properties. Easily separated by physical processes

Who came up with the plum pudding model?

J.J Thompson

Plum pudding model

What did J J Thompson discover

Electrons, tiny negatively charged particles in 1897

What did John Dalton discover?

Beginning of the 19th century


Atoms were thought to be the smallest possible particles


Compounds are formed when two + types of atoms join togethee

Nuclear Model

Who discovered the nuclear model?

Ernest Rutherford (w/ Hans Greiger and George Marsden) in 1911



Fired alpha particles at a thin piece of gold. They thought particles would pass but a tiny fraction bounced back.


Scattering meant tiny positive nucleus

What did Niels Bohr do?

Adapted the nuclear model in 1913.


Electrons moved on stable orbits at specific distances.


Further experiments led to protons being discovered.

James Chadwick

In 1932


Discovered a new particle inside the nucleus.


Same mass as proton and no charge : neutron.

How to calculate relative atomic mass?

Rf Value

How are different dyes separated by paper chromatography?
