Study Notes
Atomic Theory
- Democritus proposed the concept of "atomos" (indivisible particles) as the fundamental building blocks of matter.
- John Dalton's atomic theory provided scientific evidence for atoms as solid, indivisible spheres that combine in fixed ratios to form compounds.
- J.J. Thomson's plum pudding model suggested atoms are composed of negatively charged particles (electrons) embedded within a positively charged "soup."
- De Broglie proposed the wave-particle duality of matter, suggesting that electrons exhibit both wave-like and particle-like properties.
- Erwin Schrödinger's quantum mechanical model described electrons as waves and predicted their behavior using the Schrödinger equation.
- Electrons occupy orbitals, regions of space where they are most likely to be found rather than fixed paths.
- Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle states that it is impossible to precisely know both the position and momentum of a particle simultaneously.
- Max Born's probabilistic interpretation explains the likelihood of finding an electron in a certain region of space using probability density.
Key Definitions
- Atom: The smallest unit of matter indivisible by ordinary chemical means.
- Law of Conservation of Mass: The total mass of atoms in a chemical reaction remains constant.
-
Subatomic Particles: Atoms contain three key subatomic components:
- Electron: Negatively charged particle.
- Proton: Positively charged particle.
- Neutron: Neutral particle.
- Isotopes: Atoms of the same element with the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
- Average Atomic Mass: The weighted average mass of all isotopes of an element, calculated based on their relative abundance.
