Basic Information
- Atom: Smallest, indivisible particle of matter.
- Molecule: Group of two or more atoms forming an element.
- Element: Pure substance, cannot be broken down chemically.
- Compound: Substance composed of two or more elements.
- Organic Compound: Composed mainly of carbon.
- Inorganic Compound: Does not contain carbon atoms.
- Proton: Positively charged sub-atomic particle.
- Electron: Negatively charged sub-atomic particle.
Big Bang Theory and Formation of Elements
- Learning objectives: Describe the big bang theory, atoms, and nucleosynthesis; Describe the characteristics of stars; appreciate the significance of stars and the atoms that fuels them; Create a representation of the historical development of atom or chemical element using a timeline
- Outline of the topic:
- Big Bang Theory
- Nucleosynthesis (Formation of primitive elements & Formation of Star)
- Formation of Heavier Elements (Evolution of Star)
Milky Way Galaxy and Solar System
- The Milky Way Galaxy is one of 100 billion galaxies in the universe.
- Our solar system is located within it.
- The Sun is the closest star to us within the Milky Way Galaxy.
- The solar system contains the Sun and nine planets.
Big Bang Theory (Singularity)
- Proposed by Edwin P. Hubble.
- The theory suggests that nothing existed before the Big Bang.
- A single thing (no origin) existed at the beginning.
- The singularity expanding lead to formation of galaxies and a drop in temperature.
- Hubble space telescope confirmed expanding universe.
- Objects believed to dust and gas clouds are actually galaxies beyond the Milky Way.
Nucleosynthesis
- Refers to the process of creating new atomic nuclei.
- Occurs after the Big Bang cools, forming protons and neutrons from quarks.
Light Elements
- Light elements (Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium, Beryllium) were formed during nucleosynthesis by the combination of sub-atomic particles.
Atomic Structure and Calculations
- Number of protons and electrons are equal
- Number of neutrons varies for each element
- Calculating number of neutrons can be accomplished by subtracting protons/electrons from total atom weight
Nucleosynthesis (Hydrogen and Helium Formation)
- Hydrogen and Helium were the first elements formed during the Big Bang.
- These elements are fundamental for star formation.
- Hydrogen atoms in a nebula are pulled together by gravity.
Nucleosynthesis (Within a Nebula)
- Hydrogen atoms within a nebula are held by gravitational force
- A protostar is born with enough hydrogen atoms
Nucleosynthesis (Protostar Formation)
- A protostar derives hydrogen from its parental nebula.
- It is the first stage of a star's long life cycle.
- Hydrogen bonding is the reason stars are born in the universe.
Formation of Heavier Elements
- Star evolution involves initial hydrogen fusion forming a helium core in the protostar.
- The helium core increases nuclear reaction rates into main sequence stars with heavier nuclei.
Evolution of Star
- Main sequence phase: Helium core is created by intense hydrogen nuclear fusion, producing heavier elements.
- White dwarf: When a star depletes its hydrogen supply it evolves into a white dwarf, losing energy and becoming dimmer until dying.
Characteristics of a Star
- Luminosity depends on temperature and color.
- Blue stars are the brightest while red stars are dimmest.
- Blue stars are the hottest while red stars are coldest.
- The bigger the star, the brighter.
- The more massive the star, the brighter, but shorter life.
Summary of Big Bang
- After singularity expansion, particles spread, creating the universe and galaxies.
- The singularity cools, creating protons and neutrons from quarks (sub atomic particles).
- Atomic nuclei form, creating the initial elements (Helium).
- Protons and electrons combine forming Hydrogen which is the energy source of stars.
- Stars are formed by gravitational pull of a nebula.
