Law of Conservation of Mass The total mass of substances does not change during a chemical reaction. 3 Law of Definite Proportions No matter what its source, a particular chemical compound is composed of the same elements in the same parts (fractions) by mass. 4 2

Law of Definite Proportions Chemical analysis of a 9.07 g sample of calcium phosphate shows that it contains 3.52 g of Ca. How much Ca could be obtained from a 1.000 kg sample? Mass fraction of Ca = 3.52 g Ca = 0.388 * 100% = 38.8% 9.07 g sample (i.e., ANY sample of Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 is 38.8% Ca by mass ) Mass of Ca in 1.000 kg of sample = 1.000 kg sample 38.8 kg Ca 100 kg sample = 0.388 kg Ca 7 Law of Multiple Proportions In a nutshell, two (or more) compounds can contain different relative amounts of the same elements: If elements A and B react to form two compounds, the different masses of B that combine with a fixed mass of A can be expressed as a ratio of small whole numbers. (Evidence of the existence tiny individual particles.) 8 4

Atomic Theory Protons, Neutrons and Electrons Theory and Discovery 11 Daltons Atomic Theory 1. All matter consists of tiny particles called atoms. 2. Atoms of an element are identical in mass and other properties and are different from atoms of any other element. 3. Compounds result from the chemical combination of a specific ratio of atoms of different elements. 4. Chemical reactions involve reorganization of the atoms changes in the way they are bonded. Atoms of one element do not change and cannot be converted into atoms of another element during chemical reactions. John Dalton 12 6
Thomson and Cathode Rays Aim: To study the structure of the atom. Investigate the electrical discharges of atoms. Procedure: Use a partially evacuated tube to apply high voltage to a screen coated with a chemical compound. Measure the deflection. 13 Thomson and Cathode Rays Thomson used partially evacuated glass tubes to discover the existence of negatively charged particles called electrons. Developed the plum pudding model. Plum Pudding Model 14 7
Millikan and Oil Drops Aim: To study the electronic properties of the atom. Investigate the mass of an electron. Procedure: Use x-rays to produce charges on oil drops. Measure the magnitude of the electron charge. 15 With Thomson s cathode ray experiment, determined the mass of an electron, 9.11x10-31 kg. Millikan and Oil Drops 16 8
Rutherford Experiment Aim: To study the internal structure of the atom. Investigate the mass distribution in the atom. Procedure: Use a radioactive source to bombard a thin piece of gold foil. Collect the radiation. 18 9
Original and Revised Theories Original Theory: Plum pudding model Revised Theory: Nucleus (dense positive charge) at the center of the atom. Large amount of space between nucleus and electron. 19 Moving electron cloud surrounding nucleus. Almost all the mass is in the nucleus! 20 10
1+ + 1- - Notes: mass of e - tiny relative to p +, n. p +, n have same mass (almost). e -, p + have same charge, opposite sign. 21 Atomic Definitions I: Symbols, Isotopes, Numbers A Z X The Nuclear Symbol of the Atom X = Atomic symbol of the element Z = The atomic number: the number of protons in the nucleus (All atoms of the same element have the same # of protons.) A = The mass number (protons plus neutrons: A = Z + N) N = The number of neutrons in the nucleus N = A - Z Isotopes = atoms of an element with the same number of protons, but different number of neutrons in the nucleus 22 11

Neutral ATOMS If neutral, then # e - = # p + = atomic number. Remember: # n = A - # p + Numbers of each particle: 51 Cr = p + (24), e - (24 ), n ( 27) 239 Pu = p + (94), e - (94), n (145) 15 N = p + (7), e - (7), n (8) 56 Fe = p + (26), e - (26), n (30) 235 U = p + (92), e - (92), n (143) 29 Modern Reassessment of the Atomic Theory 1. All matter is composed of atoms. Although atoms are composed of smaller particles (electrons, protons, and neutrons), the atom is the smallest body that retains the unique identity of the element. 2. Atoms of one element cannot be converted into atoms of another element in a chemical reaction. Elements can only be converted into other elements in nuclear reactions in which protons are changed. 3. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons and electrons, which determine the chemical behavior of the element. Isotopes of an element differ in the number of neutrons, and thus in mass number, but not in chemical behavior (much). A sample of the element is treated as though its atoms have an average mass. 4. Compounds are formed by the chemical combination of two or more elements in specific ratios, as originally stated by Dalton. 30 15
What separates isotopes of the same element? 1. Different number of protons 2. Different number of electrons 3. Different number of neutrons 4. Different overall charge 5. None of the above 31 Definitions Element - The simplest type of substance with unique physical and chemical properties. An element consists of only one type of atom. It cannot be broken down into any simpler substances by physical or chemical means. Compound - A substance composed of two or more elements that are chemically combined. Pure Substances - Their compositions are fixed! Elements and compounds are examples of pure substances. Mixture - Is a group of two or more elements and/or compounds that are physically intermingled. Molecule - A structure that consists of two or more atoms that are chemically bound together and thus behave as an independent unit. 32 16
Definitions Chemical Formula The symbols of for the elements are used to indicate the types of atoms present, and the subscripts are used to indicate the relative numbers of atoms present. Structural Formula A formula in which the bonds are shown along with the elemental symbols and order of atom arrangement. 33 See figures 2.15-2.17 in the textbook. 34 17

Forming Bonds Sharing and Transfer of Electrons 37 Chemical Compounds and Bonds Chemical Bonds The forces that hold the atoms of elements together in the compound. Covalent Bonds Electrons are shared between atoms of different elements to form covalent compounds. Ionic Bonds- Attractive forces between two oppositely charged ions to form ionic compounds. 38 19
Chemical Compounds and Bonds Cation An atom that has lost electron(s) to form a + ion. Common for metal elements. Anion An atom that has gained electron(s), to form a - ion. Common for nonmetal elements. Monatomic (single atom) ions form binary ionic compounds. Polyatomic ions have many atoms per ion and an overall charge. 39 A: No interaction, atoms too far apart. B: Atoms move closer, electron clouds distort. C: Covalent bond forms. D: The protons from each nucleus share the overlapping electron cloud. 40 20

What monatomic ion would chlorine (Cl) form? 1. Cl 2-2. Cl - 3. Cl + 4. Cl 2+ 51 Predicting the Ion that an Element will Form Problem: What monatomic ions will each of the elements form? (a) barium(z=56) (b) sulfur(z=16) (c) titanium(z =22) (d) fluorine(z=9) Plan: We use the z value to find the element in the periodic table and which is the nearest noble gas. Elements that lie after a noble gas will lose electrons and those before a noble gas will gain electrons. Solution: (a) Ba 2+, barium - an alkaline earth element (Group 2A) - will lose two electrons - attains the same number of electrons as the xenon (Xe) (b) S 2-, sulfur - in the oxygen family (Group 6A) - expected to gain two electrons - attains the same number of electrons as argon (Ar) (c) Ti 4+, titanium - in Group 4B - expected to lose 4 electrons - attains the same number of electrons as argon (Ar). (d) F -, fluorine - a halogen (Group 7A) - expected to gain one electron 52 - attains the same number of electrons as neon (Ne). 26
