8th-Atoms & the PT
Atoms and subatomic particles, using the periodic table, and the history of PT
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Atomic Mass | Same as Mass Number, the number of protons and neutrons in a single atom |
| Mass Number | Same as Atomic Mass, the number of protons and neutrons in an atom |
| Atomic Weight | The average of all isotopes' mass numbers (or atomic masses), used for isotopes |
| Atomic Number | Number of protons (or electrons) in an atom |
| Protons | They have a mass of 1 amu, are positively charged, and are located in the nucleus of an atom |
| Neutrons | They have a mass of 1 amu, are neutrally charged, and are located in the nucleus of an atom |
| Electrons | They have a mass of 1/1840 (~0) amu, are negatively charged, and are located in the electron cloud of an atom |
| Electron Cloud | The "ring" that the electrons orbit the nucleus in |
| Neutrally Charged Atoms | Have the same number of protons and electrons |
| Atom | The smallest particle with characteristics of an element |
| Who created the chocolate chip model of the atom? | Thompson |
| Who created the first atomic theory? | Dalton |
| What is Dalton's atomic theory (4)? | -All elements consist of undividable atoms -Chemical reactions cannot change an atom's element -Compounds are when atoms of different elements combine in a specific ratio -Atoms of the same element have the same mass |
| What was Bohr's theory? | Theorized that electrons orbited the nucleus |
| What was the Cloud model? | Theorized that electrons where in an electron cloud that hovered around the nucleus of an atom |
| Isotopes | Atoms with the same number of protons (same element) but different numbers of neutrons (Oxygen-16, Oxygen-17, etc.) |
| Periodic Table Groups | Numbered 1-18, consist of vertical rows |
| Periodic Table Periods | Numbered 1-7, consist of horizontal rows |
| Periodic Table | A table of the chemical elements organized by rows and columns in an organized method |
| How did Lavoisier order elements (PT)? | Grouped elements by metals and nonmetals |
| Who grouped elements by metals and nonmetals? | Lavoisier |
| How did Cannizzaro order elements (PT)? | Organized elements by their properties (first) from their standard set of atomic weights |
| Who organized elements by their properties from their atomic weights? | Cannizzaro |
| How did Moseley order elements (PT)? | Organized elements by their atomic numbers |
| Who organized elements by their atomic numbers? | Moseley |
| How did Dobereiner order elements (PT)? | Organized elements in triads (groups of three) and by increasing order of atomic weight and analyzed the properties of the middle elements |
| Who organized elements in triads by increasing order of atomic weight and analyzed the properties of the middle elements? | Dobereiner |
| How did Newlands order elements (PT)? | First to organize elements in a periodic table with increasing order of atomic masses but left no room for undiscovered |
| Who was the first to organize elements in a periodic table with increasing order of atomic masses? | Newlands |
| How did Mendeleev order elements (PT)? | Left room for undiscovered elements when ordering by atomic weight; created the framework for the modern PT |
| Who ordered elements in the PT by atomic weight and created the framework for the modern PT? | Mendeleev |
| How did Meyer order elements (PT)? | Created a semi-usable PT that won universal recognition |
| Who created a PT that won universal recognition? | Meyer |
| How did Seaborg order elements (PT)? | Discovered many elements and developed the idea of placing lanthanides and actinides under the PT |
| Who developed the idea of placing lanthanides and actinides under the PT? | Seaborg |
| What are metals like physically? | They are shiny and solid |
| What are metals like chemically (conductivity)? | Highly conductive (reactive) |
| What are nonmetals like physically? | Gas or solid and have low densities |
| What are nonmetals like chemically (conductivity)? | Poor conductors (nonreactive) |
| What are metalloids like physically? | Brittle and solid (are in between metals and nonmetals) |
| What are metalloids like chemically (conductivity)? | Average conductivity (kinda reactive) |
