Characteristics of a good model
|
able to explain results of already done experiment and correctly predict results of new experiment
|
|
Dalton's Atomic Model
|
Smallest part of elements= atoms, atoms join together to get molecules which are the smallest parts of compounds
|
|
Atoms are....
|
Indivisable and indestructable
|
|
ABC'S of atomic literature
|
Count numbers of atoms in a unit, decide if it is atom or molecule, use coefficent
|
|
What sides are reactants on?
|
left side
|
|
what does "+" sign mean?
|
blank reacts with blank
|
|
-----> means to
|
form, yield, or produce
|
|
triangle means
|
heat
|
|
if there is a word above the arrow
|
incopperate with "in the prescence of"
|
|
Say in English: 2H(2)O(2) -----> 2 H(2)O+0(2)
|
2 molecules of hydrogen peroxide decompose to produce 2 molecules of water and one molecule of oxygen
|
|
Say in english: Ca+Br(2)-----> CaBr
|
An atom of Calcium reacts with one molecule of bromine to produce calcium bromide.
|
|
All matter is made up of....
|
atoms
|
|
Observation: Atoms cannot be seen, even with the most high powered microscope
|
Explanation: Atoms are very small, huge numbers of them in small pieces of matter
|
|
Elements have unchanging characteristic properties:
|
All atoms in an element must be identical
|
|
Different elements equal different characteristics properties
|
All elements have to be different
|
|
Elements form compounds which have their own characteristic properties, even though elements are still presents
|
Atoms hof different elements may join together to make molecules of a compound
|
|
MAs is conserved wihen elements unite to form compounds
|
Atoms are indestructable, same number appears of both sides
|
|
REactants and producrts of chemical reaction are always i in definite proportions
|
The atoms in a molecule of a certain compound always joined in same ratio
|
|
Gases are compressible/ solids and liquids are not. Solids can not pour and liquids and gases can
|
Atoms behave like small hard objects, spread apart atoms
|
|
Densities of solids and liquids are greater than those of gases
|
Atoms are different amount of spaces apart
|
|
Elements and compounds expand when heated
|
atoms do not change size, but move apart
|
|
1 element/compound may dissolve into another in its liquid form
|
;liquids; spaces between the particles are large enough to allow other particles to occupy them
|
