Democritus 460 BC
Greek Philosopher
Suggested world was made of two things – empty
space and “atomos”
Atomos – Greek word for uncuttable
2 Main ideas
Atoms are the smallest possible particle of matter
There are different types of atoms for each material

John Dalton’s Atomic Theory
1804
1. All matter is made of atoms.
2. Atoms of one element are all the same.
3. Atoms cannot be broken down into smaller parts
4. Compounds form by combining atoms
Dalton’s Early Atomic Model
“Billiard Ball” model
he envisioned atoms as solid, hard spheres, like billiard(pool) balls, so he used
wooden balls to model them

Adding an electric field cause the beam to
move toward the positive plate.
Thomson concluded the beam was made of
negative moving pieces.
Thomson’s “Plum Pudding” Atom Model
Democritus, Dalton, Thomson Video
Eugen Goldstein 1850-1930
Using a cathode ray tube he discovered
canal rays which are beams of positively
charged particles.
He is credited with the discovery of
protons in an atom.
Canal Rays discovery
Millikan’s Oil Drop Experiment
• Determined the charge on an electron
• Used Thomson’s charge to mass ratio to
calculate the mass of an electron
• discovered the
nucleus of a
gold atom with
his “gold foil”
experiment
Using J.J Thomson’s Plum Pudding atomic
model, Rutherford predicted the alpha
particles would pass straight though the gold
foil. That’s not what happened.
Gold Foil Experiment Results
most alpha particles go straight through the
gold foil
A few alpha particles are sharply deflected
Rutherford’s Conclusion
The atom is mostly
empty space.
There is a small,
dense center with a
positive charge.
Rutherford
discovered the
nucleus in atoms

Rutherford’s Contribution to
the Atomic Theory
The atom is
mostly empty
space.
The nucleus is a
small, dense core
with a positive
charge.
Rutherford’s Atomic Model
Structure of the Atom
Mass Number
Number of protons + neutrons
Units are g/mol
Counting Atoms
Isotopes
Atoms of the same element with varying
number of neutrons
Different isotopes have different mass
numbers because the number of
neutrons is different

Nuclear Symbol Notation
Atoms
Protons have a positive (+) charge and electrons
have a negative (-) charge

= 47
= 108 -47 = 61 47 Ag
Number = 47
Mass Number = 108
Let’s Practice w/ isotopes
use the periodic table
Protons = 92
Electrons = 92 Uranium-235
Neutrons = 235 – 92 = 143
Atomic Number = 92
Atomic Mass = 238.03
Mass Number = 235
Let’s Practice with Ions
Use the periodic table

K
Charge 1+
= 1+
Protons = 19
Electrons = 19-1 = 18
Neutrons = 39 -19 = 20
Atomic Number = 19
Atomic Mass = 39.098
MASS Number = 39
