chem unit 2 (map) Flashcards
atom
basic building block of all elements
Dalton contributions
discovered that the atom is an indivisible, solid particle
Thomson
created the plum pudding model
what is the plum pudding model
cloud of + in a sea of -
Rutheford
created the nuclear model (discovered nucleus)
gold foil experiment
describe the nuclear model
most of the atom is empty space with e- scattered about
dense positive center = nucleus
gold foil experiment
shot alpha particles (+) at a gold atom expecting them all to go through BUT some of them were deflected by the nucleus (+)
Bohr
created the bohr/planetary model
planetary model
electrons are in discrete, quantized energy levels (rings)
Quantum mechanical/modern model
orbitals = high probability of finding electrons
states of matter are…
solid, liquid, gas
solid atoms are…
-closely packed
-organized
-vibrate in place
liquid atoms are…
-less organized
-moving
-take shape of container
-more space in between them than solids
gas atoms are…
-not organized
-constantly moving A LOT (random)
-MOST space in between them
-fill container they are in
If a compound starts with an H…what is it?
An acid!
two types of acids
binary and oxy
binary acids
do NOT contain oxygen
how to name a binary acid
hydro _______ -ic acid
(_______ = short name of element)
how to name a oxy acid
NO HYDRO!
-ate —> -ic
-ite —-> -ous
oxy acids
contain OXYGEN
ionic compounds are between…
M and NM
