Atomic model PART 1 Development of the atomic model  Atomic model - PART 1 Early 1800s Before the discovery of electrons, John Dalton’s experiments led to the idea that atoms were tiny spheres that could not be divided. End of 1800s The electron was discovered by JJ Thomson. Scientists believed that atoms were spheres of positive charge with negative charges spread throughout - the ‘plum-pudding’ model. 1908-1913 Ernst Rutherford designed an experiment carried out by Geiger and Marsden. They fired alpha particles at a piece of very thin gold foil (only a few atoms thick) which scattered, leading to the conclusion that the mass of an atom was concentrated in a nucleus, which was charged. It proposed that electrons orbited around the nucleus.  Atomic model - PART 1 1914 Niels Bohr noticed that the light given out when atoms were heated only had specific amounts of energy and he adapted the nuclear model by suggesting that electrons orbit the nucleus at specific distances in certain fixed energy levels (or shells). The energy must be given out when excited electrons fall from a high to low energy level. Later experiments led to the idea that the positive charge of the nucleus could be subdivided into a whole number of smaller particles, each particle having the same amount of positive charge. The name proton was given to these particles. 1932 James Chadwick bombarded beryllium atoms with alpha particles. An unknown radiation was produced. Chadwick interpreted this radiation as being composed of particles with a neutral electrical charge and the approximate mass of a proton. This particle became known as the neutron.  Atomic model - PART 1 John Dalton – tiny spheres that could not be divided. 1800s JJ Thomson – electron discovered. Plum pudding model - spheres of 1890s positive charge with negative charges spread evenly though. E. Rutherford, Geiger and Marsden - alpha particle scattering 1908 -1913 experiment. Nuclear model - mass of atom concentrated in a charged nucleus, with orbiting electrons. Niels Bohr – electrons orbit nucleus at specific distances in fixed 1914 energy levels (shells). Energy given out when electrons change level. Positive charge of nucleus could be subdivided into particles of positive Later… charge – protons. James Chadwick – provided evidence for the existence of neutrons 1932 within the nucleus. QuestionIT! Atomic model PART 1 Development of the atomic model  Atomic model PART 1 – QuestionIT 1.

He said the positive charge was concentrated into very small volume at centre of atom (nucleus) and the electrons orbit nucleus.  Atomic model PART 1 – QuestionIT 6. Explain why Bohr revised Rutherford’s model of the atom. Suggesting electrons orbit the nucleus at different distances. 7. Explain why Bohr revised Rutherford’s model of the atom. Energy emitted from electron transitions can only have certain fixed energies, so he refined the ‘orbiting electrons’ in Rutherford’s nuclear model to ‘orbiting electrons in energy levels (or shells) at fixed distances from the nucleus’. LearnIT! KnowIT! Atomic model PART 2 Relative electrical charges of subatomic particles. Size and mass of atoms Atomic structure  Atomic model - PART 2 Subatomic particles Mass Charge Location Proton 1 + nucleus Neutron 1 0 nucleus Electron Very small - shells An atom contains equal numbers of protons and electrons. Atoms have no overall electrical charge because the number of positive protons equals the number of negative electrons. Number of protons = atomic number. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons. Atoms of different elements have different numbers of protons.  Atomic model - PART 2 Atoms are very small, having a radius of about 0.1nm (1 x 10 -10m). Protons and Neutrons are found in the nucleus. Electrons orbit the nucleus in shells. Mass number = Number of protons and neutrons 7 Protons = 3 3 Li Electrons = 3 Atomic number = Number of protons Neutrons = 4 To calculate the number of neutrons = Mass Number – Atomic Number  Atomic model - PART 2 Atoms sometimes lose or gain electrons (e.g. when a metal reacts with a none metal). When they do this they become a charge atom or an ion. If an atom loses one or more If an atom gains one or more electrons, it gains a positive charge electrons, it gains a negative because it has less electrons than charge because it has more protons. electrons than protons. e.g. If sodium atom loses one e.g. If an oxygen atom gains two electron, it forms a Na+ ion. electrons, it forms a O2- ion. It has 11 protons, 12 neutrons It has 8 protons, 8 neutrons and 10 electrons. and 10 electrons. Atoms are tiny - the radius of a typical atom is one tenth of a billionth of a meter.  Atomic model - PART 2 Atoms of the same element can have different numbers of neutrons – an isotope. Isotopes of Hydrogen The relative atomic mass of an element is an average value that takes account of the abundance of the isotopes of the element. Samples of different isotopes of an element have different physical properties (e.g. different density), however, they always have the same chemical properties. It is calculated by working out the relative abundance of each isotope. The relative atomic mass is therefore calculated using the equation: (% of isotope 1 × mass of isotope 1) + (% of isotope 2 × mass of isotope 2) ÷ 100 Chlorine’s relative atomic mass of 35.5 is an average of the masses of the different isotopes of chlorine. For example, in any sample of Chlorine 25% will be 37Cl and 75% 35Cl. (25 x 37) + (75 x 35) ÷ 100 = 35.5  Atomic model - PART 2 The electrons in an atom occupy the lowest available energy levels (innermost available shells). The electronic structure of an atom can be represented by numbers or by a diagram e.g. Calcium has 2 electrons on its lowest energy level, 8 on the second energy level, 8 on the third energy level and 2 on the fourth (the highest) energy level. So the electron configuration for Calcium = 2,8,8,2 QuestionIT! Atomic model PART 2 Relative electrical charges of subatomic particles.

Periodic table PART 1 The periodic table Development of the periodic table Metals and non-metals  Periodic table - PART 1 The elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number. Elements with similar properties are in columns, known as groups. Elements in the same group have the same number of electrons in their outer shell. It is called a periodic table The rows in the table are called periods because similar properties occur at regular intervals Group = electrons in outer shell Group = 7 Period = number of shells Period = 3  Periodic table - PART 1 1864 1808 John Newlands published the John Dalton published a table law of octaves.

Elements with properties predicted by Mendeleev were eventually discovered.

Elements in Group 0 of the periodic table are called the noble gases. They are unreactive because their atoms have stable arrangements of electrons. The atoms have eight electrons in their outermost shell, apart from helium, which has just two, but still has a complete outer shell. The stable electronic structure explains why they exist as single atoms, they have no tendency to react to form molecules. The boiling points of the noble gases get higher going down the group. For example helium boils at -269 °C and radon boils at -62°C.  Periodic table - PART 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 0 H He Li Be B C N O F Ne THE ALKALI Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar K Ca Sc Ti V Cr Mn Fe Co Ni Cu Zn Ga Ge As Se Br Kr METALS Rb Sr Y Zr Nb Mo Tc Ru Rh Pd Ag Cd In Sn Sb Te I Xe Cs Ba La Hf Ta W Re Os Ir Pt Au Hg Tl Pb Bi Po At Rn Fr Ra Ac Rf Db Sg Bh Hs Mt ? ? ? The alkali metals are very reactive. They need to be stored under oil to prevent them reacting with oxygen and water vapour in the air. The alkali metals have low densities. The metals are very soft and can be cut with a knife. They also have low melting and boiling points. The properties are due to all the atoms having just one electron in their outermost shell. They only need to lose one electron to get the stable electronic structure of a noble gas. The atoms get larger as you go down, so the single electron in the Li Reactivity outermost shell (highest energy level) is attracted less strongly to the Increases Na K positive nucleus. The electrostatic attraction with the nucleus gets Rb weaker because the distance between the outer electron and the Cs nucleus increases. Also the outer electron experiences a shielding effect from the inner electrons, reducing the attraction between the oppositely charged outer electron and the nucleus.  Periodic table - PART 2 The alkali metals have a silvery, shiny surface when they are first cut. However, this goes dull very quickly as the metals reacts with the oxygen in the air. shiny e.g. sodium + oxygen  sodium oxide 4Na(s) + O2(g)  2Na2O(s) metal oxide Lithium, sodium and potassium all react vigorously with water. When you add them to water, the metal floats, moves around and fizzes. e.g. potassium + water  potassium hydroxide + hydrogen 2K(s) + 2H2O(l)  2KOH(aq) + H2(g) Potassium ignites with a lilac flame They also react vigorously with non metals, such as group seven. They form 1+ ions in the reactions to make ionic compounds. These are generally white and dissolve in water, giving colourless solutions. e.g. sodium + chlorine  sodium chloride 2Na(s) + Cl2(g)  2NaCl(s)  Periodic table - PART 2 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 0 H He THE HALOGENS Li Be B C N O F Ne Na Mg Al Si P S Cl Ar When Group 7 elements react, K Ca Sc Ti V Cr Mn Fe Co Ni Cu Zn Ga Ge As Se Br Kr the atoms gain an electron in Rb Sr Y Zr Nb Mo Tc Ru Rh Pd Ag Cd In Sn Sb Te I Xe their outermost shell.

The reactions with hydrogen become less reactive as you go down the group. e.g. fluorine + hydrogen  hydrogen fluoride F2(g) + H2(g)  2HF(g) The halogens also react with metals. The halogen atoms gain a single electron to give them a stable arrangement of electrons. They form ionic compound. e.g. sodium + chlorine  sodium chloride 2Na(s) + Cl2(g)  2NaCl(s) A more reactive halogen will also displace a less reactive halogen from solutions of its salts. e.g. chlorine + potassium bromide  potassium chloride + bromine Cl2(g) + 2KBr(aq)  2KCl(aq) + Br2(aq) The colour of the solution after mixing depends on the less reactive pair of halogens.
