    Study Notes

    Atomic Structure & Periodic Table

    • Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass
    • All matter is made of atoms
    • Atoms are the building blocks of matter
    • Atoms are too small to be seen
    • A penny contains 2 x 1022 atoms
    • Atoms have protons, neutrons, and electrons

    Structure of the Atom

    • An atom is the smallest unit of matter
    • Atoms contain a nucleus made up of protons and neutrons
    • Protons are positively charged particles
    • Neutrons are neutral particles (have no charge)
    • Electrons are negatively charged particles
    • Protons and neutrons are much heavier than electrons
    • Electrons are found in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus
    • Electrons are in constant motion
    • Electrons are responsible for the atom’s reactions

    Periodic Table Information

    • Atomic Number is equal to the number of protons
    • The number of protons determines the element
    • In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons
    • Mass Number = number of protons + number of neutrons
    • Electron number = atomic number

    Rules for electron arrangement

    • 1st energy level holds up to 2 electrons
    • 2nd energy level holds up to 8 electrons
    • 3rd energy level holds up to 18 electrons

    Ions

    • Ions are atoms with a positive or negative charge
    • Positive ions (cations) lose electrons
    • Negative ions (anions) gain electrons

    Isotopes

    • Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons
    • Isotopes have the same number of protons but different mass numbers
    • Mass number = protons + neutrons
    • Isotopes have the same atomic number
