(DA) Oct. 26, 2010: Isotopes & Atoms

Atomic Number

• Atomic Number: Number of protons

Atomic Number = 22

Symbol = Ti

Atomic Mass = 47.87

Atomic mass - Atomic Number = # neutrons

   (p+n)         -           (p)            =        (n)

Isotopes - Same atomic number but different mass

FOR EXAMPLE:

Isotope     Mass#     Atomic#    # of Protons    #of Neutrons

 54Fe          54             26                26                   28

 56Mn         56             25                 25                   31

237Np        237            93                 93                  144

CHEMISTRY NOTES

QUANTUM MECHANICS

·         Different levels of electrons: s, p, d, and f orbitals

·         As you increase levels, the orbitals get larger

BOHRS THEORY:

·         The electron is a particle that must be in orbital in the atom

QUANTUM THEORY:

·         The electron is like a cloud of negative energy or a wave

·         Orbitals are areas in 3D spaces where the electrons most probably are

·         The energy of the electron is in its vibrational modes – like notes on a guitar string

·         Photons are produced when high energy modes change to lower energy modes

S ORBITALS:

·         Each orbital holds 2 electrons

(hydrogen and helium)

                         P ORBITALS

·         There are 3 suborbitals

·         Each contains 2 electrons

·         Total of 6 electrons (3 x 2 = 6)

D ORBITALS

·         There are 5 suborbitals

·         Each contains 2 electrons

·         Total electrons: (2 x 5 = 10)

F ORBITALS

·         There are 7 suborbitals

·         Each contains 2 electrons

·         Total electrons: (7 x 2 = 14)

·         Can be made into nuclear bombs

Examples:

1.       How many and what type of electrons does the atom calcium have?

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2

(NR) Oct. 19, 2010: Bohr Diagram

 

these are examples of the energy level model and the Bohr Model... by Nikko Rey.

Bohr Model

- Atoms are electrically neutral.

- Two different models can be used to describe electron configuration.

        > Energy level Model

        > Bohr Model

- Electrons occupy shells which are divided into orbitals.

        > 2e in the first orbital

        > 8e in the second orbital (OCTET)

        > 8e in the third orbital (OCTET)

 

(DA) Oct. 15, 2010: Neils Bohr

Bohr (1920s) 

• Rutherford's model was inherently unstable
  - Protons and electrons should attract eachother
• Matter emits light when it is heated (black body radiation)
• Light travels as photons
  
  
  PHOTONS
• The energy photons carry depends on their wavelengths

Bohr based his model on the energy (light emitted by different atoms. Each atom has a spectra of light. To explain this emission spectra, Bohr suggested that electrons occupy shells or orbitals

 

If given enough energy, an atom can move down or up levels of the orbitals.

BOHRS THEORY:

• Electrons exist in ortibals
• When they absorb energy they move to a higher orbital
• As they fall from a higher orbital to a lower one they release energy as a photon of light.

(TG) October 13, 2010: Atomic Theory

THE ATOMIC THEORY

ARISTOTLE:

• One of the first theories ever created was called the "Four Elements Theory"
• Consisted of: Water, Earth, Wind, and Fire
• Lasted about 2000 years, but is not currently a valid theory because it cannot be proven 

DEMOCRITUS: 

• In 300 BC Democritus said atoms were indivisible atoms
• It was the first mention of atoms: atomos
• Was only a conceptual model 
• No mention of a nucleus
• Does not explain Nuclear Reactions

LAVOISIER (LATE 1700'S)

• Created the law of the conservation of mass: "in a chemical reaction no matter is destroyed or created"
• Also had a law of definite proportions: (e.g. in a H20 molecule there is always 11% H and 89% O)

PROUST

• In large proportions atoms have the same ratios as they do in molecules or compounds
• Proved Lavoisiers Laws correct 

DALTON

• Believed atoms are solid, indestructible spheres (e.g. billiard balls)
• This theory provides an explanation for different elements
• Based on the law of conservation of mass (if atoms are not destroyed, mass doesn't change)
• Having a molecule explains the law of of Constant Composition
• 2H2     + O2             =      2H2O 

J.J. THOMPSON

• Raisin Bun model
• solid, positive spheres, with negative particles embedded in them
• first atomic theory to have positives and negatives
• demonstrated the existence of electrons (cathode tube)  

 RUTHERFORD's assistant (1905) (

• showed that atoms have a positive, dense, center, with electrons outside of it
• resulted in planetary model
• explains why electrons spin around nucleus
• suggests that electrons are made up of mostly open spaces

(DA) Oct. 4: Sodium Chloride Lab

Today we started off the class with a simple homework check.
Soon after we were given instructions on how to do our lab by Mr. Doktor (the best teacher in the world, as well as the smartest), and how to use each of the materials.


We split into groups of 3 and 4, and set off to gather our materials and safety clothing and equipment.
As we were in our groups we put our weight paper on the electronic scale and waited for Mr. Doktor to
put the Sodium Chloride (salt) onto the scale.


The Procedure we needed to follow:
1. Gather all the materials and put them on the lab bench
2. Measure 30 mL of distilled water using the graduated cylinder. Transfer this water into a 50 mL beaker
3. Weight 50g of Sodium Chloride.
4. Add Sodium Chloride to the water until it stops dissolving (the solution is saturated) and the first salt crystals begin appearing on the bottom of the beaker.
5. Measure the mass of salt remaining. Record the difference in salt as the amount added to 30 mL of water
6. Repeat steps 2-5 for 50 mL of water, 80 mL of water and 100mL of water.
7. Record all your data in the table below.
8. Create a graph of Mass of \salt vs. Volume of Water (Be sure you include a title, axis, data points, scale and a straight line of best fit).

(NR) Sept 30: Density and Graphing

Density

- The density of an object is its mass divided by its volume. It is usually expressed in kg/L, kg/m^3, or g/cm^3.

example:

1) Determine the density of the hot tub that has the mass of 115kg and a volume of 70L.

d = 115 kg 
        70L

  = ____kg/L




(answer: 1.6 kg/L)

Graphing

• All graphs MUST contain 5 important things:
  1) Labelled axis
  2) Appropriate scale
  3) Title
  4) Data points
  5) Line of best fit line
• Three things can be done when working with graphs:
  1) Read the graph.
  2) Find the slope (RISE/RUN)
  3) Find the area under the graph.
