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
