john dalton
1800
atoms where tiny hard sphere
jj thompson
1899
electrons embedded in positive charge
plum pudding model
ernest rutherford
1909
discovered protons in nucleus
in alpha scattering experiment
electrons orbit around nucleus
neils bohr
1914
electrons orbit around nucleus in
energy levels
james chadwick
nucleus made out of neutrons and protons
isotope
atoms of same element with different mass number due to different number of neutrons
in terms of electronic structure means
oxygen = (2,8,6)
if electron further away from nucleus
less energy needed to remove from nucleus
ionic compound
compounds formed by ionic bonds
have a giant ionic structure
high melting/boiling point
strong forces of electrostatic attraction
conducts electricity when molten / dissolved
problems with 3D models
only shows outer layer of compound
has relative size
free space
ball stick model
not to scale
sizes arent shown
has gaps
sticks for bonds
mixture
2 or more elements/ compounds
NOT chemically bonded
physical process separates mixture
does not involve chemical reaction - does not form new substance
