  1. Atomic Theory What do I need to know for the test?

  2. Democritus • 460 BC-created the 1st Atomic Theory of Matter (not modern atomic theory however) • HIS THEORY • Matter is composed of empty space through which atoms move • Atoms are solid, homogeneous, indestructible, and indivisible • Different kinds of atoms have different sizes and shapes • The differing properties of matter are due to the size, shape, and movement of atoms • Changes in matter result from changes in groupings of atoms and NOT from changes in the atoms themselves

  3. John Dalton Dalton revived Democritus’s ideas in the 19th century. Much time has passed.

  4. Dalton’s Model

  5. John Dalton • Father of the Modern Atomic Theory • 5 parts • Each element is composed of tiny, indestructible particles called atoms • All atoms for a given element have the same mass and properties • Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particles, or destroyed • Atoms combine in whole number ratios to form compounds • In a reaction, atoms are separated, combined, and rearranged

  6. J.J. Thompson

  7. J.J. Thomson • He used a cathode ray tube experiment to discover electrons. • He measured both magnetic and electric fields on the cathode rays and observed that there was a teeny tiny particle, much smaller than the Hydrogen atom  Electron • Plum Pudding Model • Negatively charged electrons are distributed throughout a uniform positive charge

  8. Plum Pudding Model Cathode Ray

  9. Robert Millikan

  10. Robert Millikan • Discovered the charge (-1) of an electron by doing the oil drop experiment • http://www.suite101.com/content/millikan-oil-drop-experiment-a124624

  11. Oil Drop

  12. Ernest Rutherford

  13. Ernest Rutherford • He was interested in studying how alpha particles (+ charge ) interact with atoms • Rutherford thought that, in his experiments, only a few positively charged alpha particles would slightly deflect and the rest would go straight through. • Using the Gold Foil Experiment he discovered that some of those particles deflected at large angles and even bounced straight back at him.

  14. That means that the plumb pudding model was wrong and there was a small dense center to an atom called a NUCLEUS! • Which means that the electrons floated around in empty space….so he also discovered the orbital theory of electrons, in other words, electrons orbit the nucleus (small charge) in circular paths

  15. Gold Foil Experiment

  16. Mendeleev’s Periodic Table (Side Note) • Mendeleev was the first to put all the known elements into some sort of arrangement. His periodic table is NOT the periodic table we know today. • He arranged the table in order of atomic mass, NOT number.

  17. Henry Moseley

  18. Henry Moseley • Arranged the periodic table according to atomic number NOT atomic mass (Mendeleev) • This is our periodic table that we use today • Periodic Law-Elements close to one another have similar properties.

  19. Niels Bohr

  20. Niels Bohr • Bohr’s Model is based on the light emission spectrum of Hydrogen… • He proposed that a hydrogen atom has only certain allowable energy levels. (energy is quantized) • Lowest energy level is ground state • When an electron is excited it moves up to an excited state • He proposed that electrons can only orbit in certain circular paths (like planets) • Each path is a different energy level

  21. Bohr’s Energy Levels

  22. When an electron falls from an excited state to the ground state, light is emitted…. • His model explained Hydrogen’s spectrum, but not any other element

  23. Louis De Broglie

  24. Louis De Broglie • Louis went one step further than Bohr… • Theorized that all moving particles have wave like characteristics, even electrons!

  25. Erwin Schrödinger

  26. Erwin Schrödinger • Went further with the wave/particle theory • Discovered electron clouds (s, p, d, f) • Explains that electrons move like waves and not in a fixed patterns

  27. At any given time, an electron can be found somewhere within its electron cloud. (90% of the time)

  28. James Chadwick

  29. James Chadwick • Essentially discovered neutrons (no charge) and how it pairs with protons in a mass called a nucleus
