CHAPTER 2
Atoms and Elements
2
Atoms• Dalton’s Atomic Theory - 1808
1. -Element is composed of small, indivisible particles called atoms.
2. -Atoms of an element have identical properties that differ from those of other elements.
3. -Atoms cannot be created, destroyed, or transformed -Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine in whole-number ratios.
4. -Atom ratios are constant in a given compound.
5. Chemical Reactions rearrange and recombine atoms but do not destroy them.
3
Structure of the Atom
1. The atom is mostly empty space.
2. It contains a very small, dense center called the nucleus.
3. Nearly all of the atom’s mass is in the nucleus.
4. The nuclear diameter is 1/10,000 to 1/100,000 times less than atom’s radius.

Fundamental Particles

E lectron (e-) 0 .00054858 -1
P roton (p ,p+) 1 .0073 +1
Neutron (n ,n0) 1 .0087 0
• Three fundamental particles make up atoms. The
following table lists these particles together with
their masses and their charges.
5
Elements
• Elements– substances that cannot be decomposed into simpler substances via chemical reactions
• Elemental symbols– found on periodic chart
– First letter capital, second letter lower case
– C, Ca, Co
– CO is not an element.

7
Atomic Number• The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus.– Sometimes given the symbol Z.
– Numbered consecutively on the periodic table
• The atomic number determines the element .– The elements differ from each other by the number of protons in the nucleus.
– The number of electrons in a neutral atom is also equal to the atomic number.
– For charged species there are more electrons if it is negative and less electrons if it is positive
8
9
Mass Number and Isotopes• Mass number is given the symbol A.
• A is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.
– Z = proton number N = neutron number
– A = Z + N
• A common symbolism used to show mass and proton numbers is

Isotopes
• Isotopes are atoms of the same element but with different numbers of neutrons.– Isotopes have different masses and A values but are the same element.
• One example of an isotopic series is the hydrogen isotopes.1H or protium is the most common hydrogen isotope.• one proton and no neutrons
2H or deuterium is the second most abundant hydrogen isotope.• one proton and one neutron
3H or tritium is a radioactive hydrogen isotope. • one proton and two neutrons
13
The Atomic Weight Scale and Atomic
Weights
• The atomic weight of an element is the weighted average of the masses of its stable isotopes
• Example: Naturally occurring Cu consists of 2 isotopes. It is 69.1% 63Cu with a mass of 62.9 amu, and 30.9% 65Cu, which has a mass of 64.9 amu. Calculate the atomic weight of Cu to one decimal place.

15
Atomic Mass• The atomic mass of an element on the periodic table is the
weighted average of the masses of its stable isotopes
– For example H = 1.008 amu
– Calcium = 40.078 amu
We will use these masses later for chemical calculations
16
Atomic Weights
• Weighted average of the masses of the isotopes
• Tells us the atomic masses of every known element.
• How do we know what the values of these numbers are?
17
The Mole
• A number of atoms, ions, or molecules that is large enough to see and handle.
• A mole = number of things
– Just like a dozen = 12 things
– One mole = 6.022 x 1023 things
• Avogadro’s number = 6.022 x 1023
– Symbol for Avogadro’s number is NA.
18
The Mole
• Molar mass - mass in grams numerically equal to the atomic weight of the element in grams.
• H has an atomic weight of 1.00794 g
– 1.00794 g of H atoms = 6.022 x 1023 H atoms
• Mg has an atomic weight of 24.3050 g
– 24.3050 g of Mg atoms = 6.022 x 1023 Mg atoms
