Q

Structure of an Atom

A
  • The number of protons(+) and electrons(-) in an atom are EQUAL(neutral atom)
  • The positive charges of the proton and negative charges of electrons cancel each other out, making each atom neutral(not positive or negative)

IDK WHERE IS IT??

17
Q

Where is neutron?

A

Up ur MOM

18
Q

Nucleus

A

centre of the atom - holds all the mass

19
Q

How to find mass?

A

Protons and neutrons

20
Q

Where are electrons located?

A

Located in orbits outside of the nucleus(octet rule) of the atom.

21

22
Q

What things are equal?

A

Number of protons and electrons in an atom is the same as the atomic number

23
Q

Calculating Neutrons

A

Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number

24
Q

Atom

A

a neutral particle(has equal # of protons and electrons). It is the smallest particle that has properties of an element

25
Q

Anion

A

gaining electrons to become negative

26
Q

Cation

A

losing electrons to become positive

27
Q

Bohr-Rutherford Diagrams of the First 20 Elements

A

Remember it

28
Q

Lewis Dot Diagram

A

Only looks at valence electrons(outermost)

29
Q

Metals

A
  • Electron losers
  • Gives away electrons
  • They become positive ions
  • Cations
30
Q

Non-Metals

A
  • Electron gainers
  • Becomes negatively charged
  • Anions
31
Q

Bohr-Rutherford Ion Diagram

A

RMEMEBER

32
Q

Isotopes

A

When the amount of neutrons is different from usual which means the mass is differentE

33
Q

Example

A

Carbon is usually 6p and 6n, but sometimes carbon-14, where there are 6p and 8n, mass is 14

34
Q

Isotope Names

A

C-14
14-Carbon
14^C

35
Q

Dimitry Mendeleev

A
  • made the periodic table
  • Russian Chemistry Professor
  • Suggested that the missing elements did exist but were not discovered yet
36
Q

J.J. Thompson

A
  • Father of the electron
  • Plum pudding model
    (mostly positive with negative embedded)
37
Q

Ernest Rutherford

A
  • Protons(+) are in the nucleus
  • Positive is in the middle, negative(electrons around it)
  • Big space
38
Q

Neils Bohr

A
  • Electrons are found on the outside by they’re in levels(shells) so they don’t collapse
  • Are found in energy levels around the nucleus
39
Q

Chadwick

A
  • Discovered the neutron
  • Hard to discover because proton is neutral unlike electrons and protons
