Topic 1-Lecture 1 Flashcards
Contains particles, or units, of more than one specific atom or molecule
Mixture
Different pure samples of the same compound always contain the same proportions of each element by mass
Law of Definite Proportions
Joseph Proust
Attracted to positive magnetic field
Bata particles
-
Attracted to negative magnetic field
Alpha particle
+
Neutral particle
Gama
Deflection in an atom is caused by the stream hitting the ____________.
Nucleus
~gold foil
~Earnest Rutherford
The nucleus contains…
Protons and neutrons
Equal to the number of protons plus the number of neutrons
Mass Number
The number of protons or electrons (in a neutral atom)
Atomic number
Mass number- atomic number=
Number of neutrons
An element with varying numbers of neutrons
Isotope
~exhibit identical chemical behavior
Average of all isotopes of an element
Average Atomic Mass
Stripping an atom of its electrons to gain a charge
Ionization
Atoms from a pure sample are ionized and accelerated through a magnetic field
Mass Spectrometry
~isotopes with smaller gasses experience a greater degree of deflection
~more massive=greater % abundance
(Mass # X % Abundance) + (Mass # X % Abundance)
Average Atomic Mass
Basic unit in a network solid
Formula Weight
Molecules that can exist independently
Molecular weight
Contains particles, or units, of one specific atom or molecule
Pure sample
Percentage of mass of an element in a substance
Mass percent=
(#of atoms of element)(elements atomic mass)
——————————————————X100
Formula weight of compound
Small whole # ratio can be created by comparing any two elements
Law of Multiple Proportions
John Dalton
Heavier mass (compound) ------------------------------ Lighter mass (compound)
Wrote the Law of Conservation of Mass
Antoine Lavoisier
Developed first atomic theory
Democritus
Wrote the Law of Definite Proportions
Joseph Proust
Wrote four postulates and Law of Multiple Proportions
John Dalton
Discovered electrons in cathode ray tube experiment
JJ Thompson
Discovered nucleus in gold foil experiment
Earnest Rutherford
