Democritus
Believed universe made of invisible

units called atoms
• Named them Atoms
• 400 BC
• Aristotle said “He’s a quack!!!”
• Took 2000 years to be proved right!

expressions
The Atomic Structure

• Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete
attempt to describe all matter in terms of atoms
and their properties.
• The first part of his theory states that all matter is
made of atoms, which are indivisible.
• The second part of the theory says all atoms of a
given element are identical in mass and
properties.

Rutherford’s experiment Involved

firing a stream of tiny positively
charged particles at a thin sheet of
gold foil (2000 atoms thick)
Most of the positively charged
“bullets” passed right through the
gold atoms in the sheet of gold foil
without changing course at all.
Some of the positively charged
“bullets,” however, did bounce
away from the gold sheet as if they
had hit something solid. He knew
that positive charges repel positive
charges.
Bohr’s model
In this model, the nucleus is orbited by

electrons, which are in different
energy levels.
A model uses familiar ideas to explain
unfamiliar facts observed in nature.
A model can be changed as new
information is collected.

J.J THOMSON
JAMES CHADWICK
Neutrons always reside in the nucleus of
atoms and they are about the same size
as protons.
Neutrons do not have any electrical
charge; they are electrically neutral.
DISCOVERY OF THE ELECTRON
In 1897, J.J. Thomson used a cathode ray tube to deduce the
presence of a negatively charged particle: the electron

1. J.J Thomson 1. Rearranged to pattern of the periodic table to
atomic number
2. John Dalton 2. Electrons travel in certain paths or energy

levels.
3. Democritus 3. There are small, negatively charged particles
inside an atom.
4. Ernest Rutherford 4. He wanted to know why elements combine in
specific proportions
5. Niels Bohr 5. Most of an atom's mass in the nucleus.
6. Henry Moseley 6. Atoms cannot be separated into two bodies.

Are atoms the smallest?
No. Most atoms are made up of even

smaller particles called
• protons
• neutrons
• electrons.
Protons carry a positive electrical charge (+). Neutrons have no electrical charge.
Protons and neutrons together make a dense bundle at the center of an atom. This bundle
is called the nucleus.
Electrons have a negative electrical charge (-) and move around the nucleus. Electrons are
the smallest of these particles.

Periodic Table of the Elements
As scientists started indirectly figuring out things about elements, like how heavy they
are or how common they are, they started sorting them into a table.
The Periodic Table of the Elements can tell you for each element
• Whether it’s a solid, liquid, or gas
• How many protons it has in its nucleus

Periodic Table of the Elements
21
The Periodic Table
Periods and Groups
– A period consists of the elements in any one

horizontal row of the periodic table.
– A group consists of the elements in any one
column of the periodic table (similar
properties/structure).
22
The Periodic Table
• Periods and Groups
– The “B” groups are called

transition elements.
– The two rows of elements at the bottom of the table are called
inner transition elements.
– Elements in any one group have similar properties because
their outer shells have the same number of valence electron
(discuss in later sections).
23
The Periodic Table
• Periods and Groups

– The elements in group IA (except H) - alkali metals
– The elements in group IIA - alkaline earth metals,
– The group VIIA elements - halogens
– The group VIIIA elements – noble gases (monoatomic)
– Diatomic elements – H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2
– Most species are solids at room temperature; H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2,
and noble gases are gases; Br2 and Hg are liquids.

The average atomic mass of an element is the sum of
the masses of its isotopes, each multiplied by its
natural abundance (the decimal associated with
percent of atoms of that element that are of a given
isotope)

What are radioisotopes?
Some proton-neutron combinations are more stable

than others.
• Stable combinations are not likely to change.
• Unstable combinations are likely to change at
some time.
Elements with unstable isotopes (radioisotopes) can
change suddenly, releasing energy.
Online file:///C:/Users/User/Downloads/build-an-atom_en%20(2).html
simulation:
What are radioactivity?
This is the process by which unstable isotopes emit

material.
The instability in the atom is the result of an
unstable nucleus trying to become more stable by
decaying and emit radiation.
A radioisotope is defines as the nuclei of an
unstable isotope

• Atoms are the smallest units of matter that have all the characteristics of an
element. Atoms combine to form molecules. Atoms are composed of smaller
particles known as protons, neutrons, and electrons.
• Protons have a positive electrical charge, neutrons have no electrical charge,

and electrons have a negative electrical charge.
• Protons and neutrons together form the nucleus or central mass of the atom.
Electrons move around the nucleus.
• The nucleus of each atom of an element contains the same number of protons,
but the number of neutrons may vary.
37
Exit task
• Isotopes of an element are identified by adding the number of

protons and neutrons together and writing the sum by the
chemical symbol for the element.
• The energy that holds the nucleus of an atom together is the

strongest force known in nature.
