58
Q

who discovered atoms?

did people believe his theory?

A

Democrites

no

59
Q

who made a better definition of atoms?

what year?

A

John Dalton (1808)

60
Q

Dalton’s Atomic Theory (4 things)

A
  • elements are composed of extremely small portions (atoms)
  • atoms of a given element are identical (not true today)
  • compounds are composed of atoms of more than one element (ratios stay the same)
  • chemical reactions involve only the combination, separation, or rearrangement of atoms (NO CREATION OR DELETION OF ATOMS) (law of conservation of mass)
61
Q

atom

A

basic unit of an element that can enter chemical combination (at the time thought to be the smallest)

62
Q

electrons

A

electrically negative particles

63
Q

what is the smallest of the three subatomic particles

A

electrons

64
Q

radiation definition

A

transmission and emission of energy through space, in the form of waves

65
Q

who discovered X-Rays

A

Wilhelm Rontgen

66
Q

how did the person discover X-Rays

A

noticed glass and metal were emitting unusual rays (energy). They had no charge, and could not be deflected by a magnet.

67
Q

Who called the X-rays radioactivity

A

Marie Curie

68
Q

Who is Marie Curie

A

She called the X-rays radioactivity

69
Q

three things about x-rays

A

very high energy
emitted by electrons
slightly lower energy than gamma rays

70
Q

Who discovered fluorescence, and what is it?

A

Becquerel

fluorescence is the emission of light from a substance that has absorbed energy

71
Q

Marie Curie called fluorescence what?

A

a natural form of radiation

72
Q

What ways is radiation emitted?

A

Alpha rays, Beta rays, and Gamma rays

73
Q

Alpha charge and mass

A

+2 charge. mass = 4

74
Q

beta charge and mass

A

-1 charge. mass = 0

75
Q

gamma charge and mass

A

no charge, no mass

76
Q

Who invented the plum pudding model and what is it?

A

Thompson.

positively charged sphere with negatively charged particles.

77
Q

who invented the planetary model and what is it?

A

Rutherford.
(gold foil experiment)
he shot alpha (+) particles through gold foil and expected them to go straight through. Instead, some deflected = something positively charged and dense is in the middle (NUCLEUS)

78
Q

what did the planetary model find?

A

nucleus

79
Q

what did the plum pudding model find?

A

structure of an atom
