Structure of Matter
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| 1913 | Niels Bohr (Bohr atom) miniature solar system |
| Nucleus | protons and neutrons most mass weight- 2000 times more mass than an electron |
| Atomic mass # | protons + neutrons |
| max # of electrons | 2n^2 K-1 L-2 M-3 |
| Isotope | different neutrons |
| centripetal force | keeping electrons from flying out |
| centrifugal force | preventing electrons from getting close to the nucleus |
| the close to the nucleus the higher | binding energy which needs more energy to get kicked out |
| ionic | electron transfer |
| covalent | sharing electrons |
| ionization | ionizing radiation hits electron, electron kick out, ion pair remains (+1 atom and -1 free electron) |
| Gamma rays (ionizing radiation) | comes from nucleus |
| x-rays (ionizing radiation) | outside the nucleus |
| difference between x-rays and gamma rays | origin |
| alpha particle | helium nucleus contains no electrons |
| beta particles | electron emitted from nucleus of radioactive atom atomic mass of zero, can penetrate, negative charge |
| radioactive half life | time required for a quantity of radioactivity to be reduced to 1/2 its original value |
| energies that keep the orbiting electrons in the place around the nucleus | radiant, centripetal, centrifugal, electron binding energies |
