Ch 2 Lec 1 - Atoms & the Atomic Theory Flashcards
mass can be neither created nor destroyed
law of conservation of mass
total mass of reactants will be the same as the total mass of products
law of conservation of mass
all samples of a certain compound have the same composition or the same proportion of elements
law of constant composition
Three assumptions of dalton’s atomic theory and dates lived
1766 - 1844
- elements have indivisible atoms and atoms cannot be created nor destroyed
- all atoms of an element have same mass and properties
- in a compound, atoms are combined in simple numerical ratios
man who discovered electrons and year
faraday 1820s
electrons were discovered using a blank
cathode ray tube
this man observed deflection of cathode rays in this year with applied electric field (moved toward + plate)
jj thomson
this man concluded that cathode rays are negatively charged particles present in all atoms
jj thomson
charge of an electron
-1.6022 x 10^-19 C
this man determined mass and charge of electron in this year
robert millikan 1914
mass of electron
9.1094 x 10^-28 g
used oil drop experiment
robert millikan
this man observed fluorescence of materials outside the cathode ray tube while the tube was operating in this year
wilhelm roentgen 1895
roentgen called unknown radiation blank
x rays
high energy form of radiation
x rays
this man discovered radioactivity in this year
henri becquerel 1900s
spontaneous emission of radiation from certain elements (unstable)
radiation
this man identified two types of radiation
ernest rutherford
two types of radiation discovered by rutherford
- alpha particles +2 charge, same core as He2+
2. Beta particles, -1 charge, same as electron
this man discovered the third type of radiation
paul villard
radiation discovered by Villard
gamma rays
these two men came up with the atom model after experimenting with alpha particles
hans geiger and ernest rutherford
three parts of model proposed by geiger and rutherford
- most mass and all + charge are in nucleus
- magnitude of the + charge is different for every element
- # of electrons outside nucleus was equal to positive charges in nucleus
+ charges in the nucleus were renamed blank by rutherford in 1919
protons
neutral particles in the nucleus (blank) were discovered by James Chadwick in 1932
neutrons
mass = blank + blank
protons, neutrons
mass number goes on blank
top
atomic number goes on blank
bottom
atomic number = number of blank
protons
= mass number - atomic number
number of neutrons
atoms with the same number of protons but different mass numbers (neutrons)
isotopes
