Ch1 Atomic Structure Flashcards
Separation techniques
- Filtration
- Chromatography
- Simple distillation
- Crystallisation
- Evaporation
- Fractional distillation
John Dalton
first ideas about atoms
tiny, hard spheres that cannot be divided
plum pudding model
JJ. Thompson
discovered electrons
suggested the atom is a ball of positive charge with tiny negative particles embedded inside
Alpha particle scattering
Thomas Rutherford(+Geiger and Marsden)
alpha particles were repelled of gold foil
mass of an atom is concentrated in the centre(nucleus)
nucleus is positively charged(contains protons)
cloud of electrons orbit the nucleus
Bohr Model
electrons orbit nucleus in fixed shells
James Chadwick
discovered neutrons
fixed missing mass problem
sub-atomic charges
- proton
- nucleus
- electron
- +
- 0
- -
sub-atomic masses
- proton
- nucleus
- electron
- 1
- 1
- 0
mass number
atomic weight
protons + neutrons
atomic number
protons
electrons
isotopes
atoms of the same element different number of neutrons same number of protons and electrons same atomic number different mass number
working out atomic mass
total mass of atoms/ total number of atoms
ions
a charged atom
due to losing or gaining an electron
electronic structure
2, 8, 8
soluble
substance that is able to be dissolved
