EXAMPLES
dalton's atomic theory   dalton formulated hypotheses and theories to explain his observation--- elements are made of atoms, they can combine together to make compounds, atoms of the same element are the same, you need chemical reactions to seperate compounds   water is made of hydrogen and oxygen  
🗑
electron   negatively charged subatomic particles on the outside   discovered by JJ Thompson in 1897  
🗑
cathode ray   glowing beam   how he discovered the electron  
🗑
proton   positively charged subatomic particles   discovered by goldstein  
🗑
neutron   subatomic particles with no charge but with a mass nearly equal to that of a proton   discovered by Chadwick  
🗑
nucleus   tiny central core of an atom and is composed of protons and neutrons   majority of the mass ,discovered by Rutherford  
🗑
atomic number   number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of that element   oxygen--- atomic # 8---  
🗑
mass number   the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom   hydrogen-1- number at the end is mass number  
🗑
isotopes   atoms that have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons   1+2=3  
🗑
atomic mass unit (amu)   defined as one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom   the decimal points numbers  
🗑
atomic mass   weighted AVERAGE mass of the atom in a naturally occurring sample of the element   THE AVERAGE MASS  
🗑
atom   smallest particle of an element that retains its identity in a chemical reaction   hydrogen--- hydrogen atoms, oxygen----oxygen atoms  
🗑
