Q

Dalton’s Early Atomic Theory

A

1) Elements are composed of tiny particles called atoms
2) Atoms of the same element are exactly alike and have same properties
3) Atoms of an element can’t be created or destroyed
4) Compounds are formed when atoms of two or more elements are chemically combined in a fixed small whole number ratio

Q

Law of Multiple Proportions

A

When two elements from more than one compound and the mass of one of the elements in each compound is held constant at 1.0 g, then the masses of the second element will be found to occur in an exact ratio of small whole numbers to each other

Q

E. Rutherford

A

Gold Foil Experiment:

  • Atom is mostly empty space
  • Nucleus positively charged, small
  • Disproved Thomson’s plum pudding

Three types of radiation: Alpha, Beta, Gamma
Alpha: 4 mass, +2 charge
Beta: Basically no mass, -1 charge
Gamma: 0 mass, 0 charge
