  1. Hello Minions… Now for the nifty stuff

  2. History lesson… • 430 BC (a long, long time ago…) • Greek Philosopher • Democritus • Matter is formed by small pieces that could not be cut into smaller parts. • ATOMOS – Uncuttable • ATOM

  3. History lesson continued… • Jump forward to the 1600’s • John Dalton (English chemist) • Came up with some ideas • All elements are composed of atoms that cannot be divided • Atoms of same element are alike and have the same mass • Different elements are different and have different masses • Atoms cannot be changed into another atom • Atoms cannot be created or destroyed, only rearranged • Every compound is made of atoms of different elements in set ratios

  4. More history… • 1897 (English scientist) J.J. Thompson • Came up with a theory of the atom being a positive ball with scattered negative charges surrounding it. • Negative charges later became known as “Electrons”

  5. Still more history… • 1911 Ernest Rutherford (Thomson’s student) • Gold foil experiment • Nucleus • Protons

  6. Last bit of history… • 1920’s • Scientists said a cloud surrounds the nucleus • Not like planets orbiting a sun • Electron’s movement is related to the “energy level” (or specific amount of energy it has)

  7. Particle Charges

  8. Comparison of Particles • Protons and Neutrons are about the same mass • (neutrons are a weeeeeee bit bigger, but not much) • Electrons match Protons charge for charge • But… • Electrons are the size of a Proton!!!

  9. We’re Number… • Every atom of an element has the same number of protons • Carbon has 6 protons • Oxygen has 8 protons • Iron has 26 protons • Radium has 88 protons!!! • This unique number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is an element’s ATOMIC NUMBER!

  10. There is always an exception… • Although all atoms have the same number of protons… • The number of Neutrons can differ! • When the number of neutrons differ from the protons, this is called an ISOTOPE.

  11. There is always an exception… • An isotope is identified by its “MASS NUMBER” which is the sum of its protons and neutrons. • For example … • Carbon-12 (most common) (6 protons + 6 neutrons) • Carbon-13 (6 protons + 7 neutrons) • Carbon-14 (6 protons + 8 neutrons)

  12. Oh! Questions!!!!
