Dalton’s model of the atom
all matter is made of atoms
atoms are small
can’t be broken down(false)
all atoms of are element are the same but different from another elements
modern model of an atom
protons and neutrons form the nucleus and electrons orbit around it at very high speeds
Who discovered sub atomic particles
Catholde
Electrons
particles smaller than atoms found in atoms they have a negative charge
Electric charges
Proton +1
Neutron 0
Electron -1
relative masses
Proton: 1
Neutron: 1
electron: =0
location of the subatomic particles
Proton: Nucleus
Neutron: Nucleus
electron: Orbiting nucleus
if an atom has a neutral charge (0) it has
the same number of prtons and electrons
the way electrons orbit
at a set distance
at a set energy level called an electron shell
compare nucleus to atom
atom is 1000 times bigger than nucleus
Define isotopes
atoms of same element with different number of neutrons
relative mass
protons + neutrons
atomic cumber
protons
how is the relative atomic mass calculated
add up the regular element and the isotopes in proportion and divide by the number of elements you added up (it is a mean of all the variations of the element)
ar
RAM or relative atomic mass
atomic mass formula
(abundance isotope 1 x mass of isotope1) + (abundance isotope 2 x mass of isotope 2):
number of isotopes
Mendeleev
ordered atoms by atomic mass(left to right) and groups by properties(top to bottom) he left blank spaces for undiscovered elements
