  1. Assignment • What is an atom? • Write your thoughts and ideas in your journals.

  2. Ch. 3 – Atoms: The Building Blocks of Matter • An atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains its chemical properties • Atom is Greek for indivisible • What is an atom made up of? • Nucleus • Proton – positive charge • Neutron – neutral charge • Electron clouds (energy levels) • Electrons – negative charge

  3. Atomic Theory • 1700s most chemist accept the definition of an element as a substance that can’t be further broken down by ordinary chemical means • Accept that elements can be combined to form compounds that will differ in physical and chemical properties • Chemical reaction is the transformation of substance(s) into one or more new substances.

  4. Law of Conservation of Mass – states that mass is neither created nor destroyed during ordinary chemical reactions or physical change. • Law of Definite Proportions – a chemical compound contains the same elements in exactly the same proportions by mass regardless of the size of sample or source of the compound. • Law of Multiple Proportions – If two or more different compounds are composed of the same two elements, then the ratio of the masses of the second element combined with a certain mass of the 1st elements is always a ratio of small whole numbers.

  5. John Dalton • School teacher in 1808 developed the theory which have developed in laws of chemistry. • Modern Atomic Theory

  6. Atoms of different elements may combine to form chemical compounds. • In chemical reactions atoms are either combined, separated, or rearranged • Atoms cannot be created nor destroyed. • Each element can have more than 1 atom. • Ex. Cl2 • MASS # - ATOMIC # = NEUTRONS

  7. Atoms of the same element may have different masses. These are called isotopes. • Ex. Hydrogen has 3 isotopes  Protium, deuterium, tritium. • What does the atomic number tell you? • Number of protons in each atom of an element. • What does the mass number tell you? • Total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. • If an element has isotopes for that element they are called nuclides.

  8. An atomic mass unit is a standard unit used for comparison. • Carbon has exactly 12 atomic mass units (U) and is used as a standard for comparison. • Each element on the periodic table has an average atomic mass. • Why do you suppose it is an average? • Average atomic mass is the weighted average of the atomic masses of the naturally occurring isotopes of an element. • Ex. Cu  69.17% is Cu – 63; 30.83% is Cu – 65.

  9. Mole, Molar Mass, and Avogadro’s number all help describe an element. • CD ROM • Mole – Roughly the mass of a substance that is has 6.02 x 1023 particles (atoms or molecules). • All of the average atomic masses on the periodic table is equal to 1 mole (mol.). • Ex. B 10.81g = 1 mol. • Ex. Zn 65.39g = 1 mol.

  10. Avogadro’s number is 6.02 X 1023 particles. • The number of particles (atoms or molecules) in exactly one mole is always 6.02 X 1023. • Ex. B 10.81g = 6.02 X 1023. • Ex. Zn 65.39g = 6.02 X 1023. • Molar mass – the mass in grams of one mol. Of a pure substance. • Basically the average atomic mass in grams. • Ex. B 10.81g = 1 mol. = 6.02 X 1023. • Ex. Zn 65.39g = 1 mol. = 6.02 X 1023.

  11. The molar mass of all elements will always contain the same number of atoms, which is 6.02 X 1023. • Which atoms are heavier? • Do the heavier atoms have more atoms in one mole? • Pg. 90 • Sample Problems from pg. 82-85.
