1 Honors Chemistry Unit 2: The Atom & Its Nucleus ( ) Bunsen, I must tell you how excellent your study of chemical spectroscopy is, as is your pioneer work in photochemistry but what really impresses me is that cute little burner you ve come up with. History of the atomic theory Atomic structure Isotopes Ions Average atomic mass % abundance Nuclear chemistry/reactions o Radioactive decay & types of radiation o Radioactive decay rate Half-life o Fission o Fusion 1

2 At the conclusion of this unit, the student will be able to: 1. Describe the development of the atomic theory. 2. Describe the law of conservation of mass/matter. 3. Describe the law of definite proportions. 4. Describe the law of multiple proportions. 5. Describe the location and amount of the subatomic particles for a specific isotope. 6. Define and distinguish between an ion and an atom. 7. Calculate the average atomic mass of an element or isotope percent/relative abundances. 8. Identify the different types of nuclear reactions 9. Compare and contrast fusion and fission. 10. Calculate half-life We are looking for: 1a. Description of each scientists contribution to the development of the atomic theory. 2. Law of conservation of mass/matter: matter cannot be created nor destroyed (Lavoisier). 3. Law of definite proportions: atoms combine in specific whole number ratios (Proust). 4. Law of multiple proportions: two elements can combine in different ratios to form different compounds; ex. CO and CO2 (Dalton). 5a. Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in the number of neutrons. 5b. The nucleus is the center of the atom and contains protons and neutrons. 5c. An atom contains the same number of protons and electrons to remain neutral. 6. An ion contains a different number of protons and electrons to give it an overall charge. 7a. Given the isotope percent/relative abundances or number of atoms in a sample and masses of each, calculate the average atomic mass of the element (round at the end to keep 2 decimal places). 7b. Given the average atomic mass and number of isotopes, calculate the percent/relative abundances of each isotope (round at the end to keep 2 decimal places). 8a. Identify and calculate the following nuclear reactions (alpha, beta, gamma, positron, and electron capture) 9a. Fission is the splitting of a nucleus into small fragments 9b. Fusion is the combining of two nuclei 10a. Half-life is a measure of the rate of radioactive decay, or the amount of time it takes for half of a radioactive sample initially present to decay to its products 2

11 Calculating Average Atomic Mass Average atomic mass: -The weighted average of all the naturally occurring isotopes for a given element. -This is NOT a mathematical average! -This is the mass listed on the periodic table. Percent (%) Abundances: -the percentage of each isotope for a given element. -the percent abundances of all the isotopes for a given element add up to 100. Relative Abundance: -the percent abundance of an isotope divided by the relative abundances of all the isotopes for a given element add up to 1. Relative Mass: -the product of the relative abundance and the mass number for an isotope of a given element. **The Average Atomic Mass is the sum of all the relative masses for a given element.** Do NOT divide your answer!! Units on average atomic mass are amu (atomic mass units). Round your final average atomic mass answer to 2 decimal places! 11

12 Ex) Iron has 4 naturally occurring isotopes. Iron s composition breaks down as follows: 5.845% Fe % Fe % Fe % Fe-58 1) Convert all the % abundances to relative abundances ) Multiply the relative abundance times the mass number to obtain relative mass x 54= x 56= x 57= x 58= ) Add the relative masses together = ) Round the answer to 2 decimal places ) Put units on your answer; amu amu 12

15 Name Average Atomic Mass Calculation Based on the number of atoms 1. Nitrogen has two isotopes with the following distributions: 99 atoms out of 100 atoms of nitrogen are 1 atom out of 100 atoms of nitrogen are 14 7 N 15 7 N Class Period The average atomic mass of Nitrogen is. 2. Antimony has two isotopes with the following distributions: 121 Sb 29 atoms out of 50 atoms of antimony are atoms out of 50 atoms of antimony are Sb The average atomic mass of Antimony is. 3. Copper has two isotopes with the following distributions: 63 Cu 25 atoms out of 35 atoms of copper are atoms out of 35 atoms of copper are 65 Cu 29 The average atomic mass of Copper is. 15

16 Purpose: Candium Lab To analyze the isotopes of candium and to calculate its average atomic mass. Materials: sample of candium balance cups Procedure: (record all your data & calculations in the data table!) 1) Obtain a sample of candium. 2) Separate the sample into its 3 isotopes (m&m s, skittles, and Reese s pieces). 3) Measure the total mass for each isotope; all the m&m s, all the skittles, all the Reese s. 4) Count the number of atoms in each isotope. 5) Calculate the mass of one atom for each isotope using the total mass and number of atoms. 6) Calculate the % abundance for each isotope using the number of atoms for each isotope and the total number of atoms in the entire candium sample. 7) Calculate the average atomic mass for candium using the % abundance and mass of one atom for each isotope. Show your work beneath the data table! 8) To check your answer, remember that the average atomic mass should be closest to the most abundant isotope s mass. Total mass m&m s skittles Reese s pieces Number of atoms Mass # (mass of one atom of this isotope; do NOT use the balance!) % abundance Show your work below for the average atomic mass calculation: 16

17 Calculating Isotope % Abundances You will only be calculating percentages for elements that have 2 isotopes. You will be given the 2 isotopes with their mass numbers. Use the periodic table for the average atomic mass for the element. 1) Set one of the isotope s relative abundance equal to X. 2) The relative abundances must add up to 1; therefore, the other isotope s relative abundance would be equal to 1-X. 3) Remember, the relative mass is equal to the relative abundance times the mass number. Remember, the relative masses must add up to the average atomic mass. 4) Setup an algebraic equation where the relative masses of each isotope is set equal to the average atomic mass for the element. Use the full average atomic mass from the periodic table, do NOT round. (X mass number) + [(1-x) mass number] = average atomic mass *When solving for X, keep 4 decimal places. This will allow the % abundance to have 2 decimal places. 5) X is the relative abundance, so multiply this by 100 to make it % abundance. 6) To obtain the other isotope s % abundance, the 2 % abundances must add up to

18 Ex) Determine the % abundance for each isotope of antimony. Antimony exists as Sb-121 and Sb-123. (X 121) + [(1-X) 123] = X X = X = X = The relative abundance of Sb-121 is ; therefore, the % abundance of Sb-121 is 62.00% and the % abundance of Sb-123 is 38.00% (100-62=38). Try this one: Potassium exists as K-39 and K-41. Determine the % abundance for each isotope of potassium. 18

(your answer from # 5 divided by 10). 7) Calculate the relative abundance for each penny in the sample (number of old pennies and number of new pennies). Remember to set one of the relative abundances to X and the other to 1-X because the relative abundances must add up to equal 1. 8) a) Relative abundance of old pennies= b) Relative abundance of new pennies= 9) a) % abundance of old pennies= b) % abundance of new pennies= 10) Your sample contained 10 total pennies.
