• His mentor was
Leucippus
• The two of them worked
together on atoms
•He was more of a
scientists than other Greek
philosophers
•Leucippus and Democritus realized that the
world consisted of myriads of indivisible
particles, called atoms which were the smallest
particles of matter possible
•Upon further speculation, they came up with
the idea that the observable properties of
common materials are because of the different
shapes of atoms which they contain, or
different motions of atoms
• Lived from 384 to 322
BC
• He was a Greek
philosopher

• A student of Plato and a
teacher of Alexander the
Great
• Had ideas referring to
many different subjects
• Aristotle’s Theory of the Elements: A piece of matter could
be divided an infinite number of times and one would never
find a piece of matter that could be further divided
• He believed in the four elements: earth, fire, water, and air
• According to him, everything in the world was made up of
some combination of these four elements
•At this time this was the most popular theory.
•The atomic theories that were created
at this time were not 100% accurate;
however, they provided insight in an
area never explored before
•The central ideas of Leucippus and
Democritus have remained unchanged
Antoine Lavoisier & The
Law of Conservation of
Matter
Born: August 26, 1743
Died: May 8, 1794
“Father of Modern Chemistry”
By: Jin Shin & Taylor Seeman
Educational Background
Attended the College Mazarin at the
request of his aunt
College Mazarin had an excellent
mathematics and science program
Lavoisier was a brilliant student, and
earned numerous awards
He conducted his first few experiments
individually or while aiding professors.
Experiment
Lavoisier burnt
phosphorous and
sulfur in air and
proved the products
weighed more than the
reactants but the
weight gained was lost
from the air.
Experiment
When you heat a piece of copper metal in air, it
comes together with oxygen in the air. If you weigh it,
it is found to have a greater mass that the original
piece. However, the mass of the oxygen of the air is
combined with the mass of copper, the mass of the
product is equal to the sum of the masses of the
copper and oxygen that were combined.
Significance of Concept
Showed that the quantity of matter is the
same in the beginning and end of every
chemical reaction, though matter may
change its state.
Though matter may change form, it can
neither be created nor destroyed
Mass of reactants always equal the mass
of products
Significance of Concept
 Law
demonstrates
understanding of
the properties of
movement and
energy.
 It is a
fundamental
principle of
physics.

Dalton’s Law of Multiple
Proportions
If 2 elements form
multiple compounds,
the ratios of the
masses of the second
element combining
with a fixed mass of
the first element will
be in ratios of small
whole numbers
Dalton’s Law of Multiple
Proportions
For Example
Elements Y and Z
The weight of Element Z,
when combined with the
fixed weight of element Y,
will compute to a ratio of
small integral numbers
(2:1, 3:1, etc.)
OR
Carbon + Oxygen = CO,
CO2, but not CO1.3

 All atoms of a given
element are
identical in mass
and properties
 Compounds are

The Experiment
The atomizer produces fine oil droplets
Oil droplets fall through a hole in the first
chamber as a stream of tiny droplets
X-rays negatively charge the oil droplets
An applied voltage on two plates surrounding
the oil drops creates an electric field. The
electric force pull some drop upward.
The rate at which the oil droplets are falling
and rising between the two charged plates is
measured through the microscope.
The Experiment
 Some oil droplets fell, and some did not
 This depended on the forces acting upon it: electric force,
gravitational force, and air resistance
 He found…
 1. When a large electric field is applied, but the electric force
on the droplet is larger, then the gravitation force acts in the
opposite direction: it moves upward
 2. Net force of a droplet=sum of the gravitational force, the air
resistance, and electrical force

The Experiment
 In simpler terms…
 When there was no voltage applied, the droplet
would fall down to the bottom
 Voltage applied, droplets with negative charge
drop more slowly, stop altogether, or even go up
(depending on the voltage given)
 Charges of the droplets were all multiples of the
smallest value

Earnest Rutherford

As well as Marsden and Geiger
and their gold foil experiment
Background Info
 Ernest Rutherford, 1st Baron Rutherford of
Nelson was a British-New Zealand chemist and
physicist. In his early work he discovered the
concept of radioactive half and also differentiated
and named alpha and beta radiation. He was
awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1908 "for
his investigations into the disintegration of the
elements, and the chemistry of radioactive
substances”.
Before his Experiment
Before his experiment people though that the
particles in an atom were randomly arranged
according to the plum pudding model. See
diagram below.
Hypothesis
Rutherford thought that if the plum pudding
model was correct then a beam of alpha
particles would go though matter with very
little deflection. See diagram below.
Experiment
Rutherford’s experiment consisted of a block of
radium to generate alpha particles, gold foil for
the particles to pass trough and a florescent
screen that he could use to determine where the
alpha particles ended up. See diagram below.
Conclusions
The Gold Foil experiment showed that the plum pudding model of
the atom was not accurate. This is because the experiment
showed how there had to be a piece of the atom with a large
mass in the center of the atom. The realization that things were
not just loosely "hanging out" around an atom but instead are
arranged in a specific way around a center led him to discover the
Atomic Nucleus. See diagram below
More Conclusions
Without this discovery, much of what we know about atoms would
not be possible. If not for the discovery of the nucleus, we could
not know about the important parts that it consists of (protons
and neutrons). Also, the periodic table of elements that we all
know so well (from intense memorization for Chemistry tests),
the elements would not be ordered the same way, because
Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an
atom. Also, we can also identify different atoms by mass number.
This is the number of protons and neutrons added together in the
nucleus. All these things, and many more, that are the basis of
our knowledge of atoms would not be possible without the
information from Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment.
James Chadwick Background
Info
•Chadwick was born in Cheshire,
England in 1891.
•He went to Manchester University in
1908.
•After college, he spent his time studying
under Professor Rutherford.
•Professor Rutherford created the first
artificial nuclear transformation.
•This is where he made studies on
atomic nuclei.
•In 1921, he became Assistant Director
of Research of the Cavendish
Laboratory.
•In 1927, he was elected a Fellow of the
Royal Society.

In 1932, he discovered the
existence of neutrons.
For this he was awarded the
Hughes Medal of the royal
society.
He was later awarded the Nobel
Peace Prize in 1935 for physics.
From 1943 to 1946, he worked
in the United States on the
Manhattan Project for the
development of the atomic
bomb.
He retired in England in 1948.
He died in 1974.

Neutron Discovery



Rutherford discovered the proton in the nucleus

Noticed it was not the only particle in the nucleus

Atomic mass could not only be the mass of protons (e.g. Helium
has an atomic mass of 4, but the number of protons is 2
Chadwick went further in trying to discover the neutron, and kept on trying,
even as he failed.
Walter Bothe and Herbert Becker did experiments with beryllium where it
emitted radiation to penetrate 200 mLs of lead. They thought this was high
energy gamma rays, but Chadwick noticed it was something else

Without the clues and inspirations of Rutherford, Bothe, and
Becker, Chadwick would not have been able to discover the
neutron.
Neutron Discovery (Cont.)

Two other scientists, Federic and Irlene Joliot-Curry, tracked particle radiation
by putting paraffin wax in front of the rays (thought to be gamma rays) coming
from the beryllium. During this, they observed high-speed protons coming out
the paraffin.

Chadwick recognized the rays from the beryllium were not
gamma rays because they were too strong. He concluded that
they were neutrons. He did his own experiments to back this up.

Since neutrons are neutral, they can penetrate thick layers of
different substances because they are not disturbed by positive
or negative charges.

Chadwick also discovered that the mass of a neutron is 1.0067

The Neutron Experiment
Significance



By knowing about the
neutron, scientists
could use atomic
number and atomic
mass because they
were no longer
extremely similar.
Also, knowing about
neutrons was important
in the creation of
nuclear weapons and
nuclear reactors.
In addition, the
creation of plutonium235 and uranium-235
is caused by their
absorption of neutrons.
Significance (Cont.)




At extremely high pressure and temperature, neutrons and electrons
collapse into neutronic matter, known as neutronium.

This is what happens in neutron stars
Neutron capture results in neutron activation, which creates
radioactivity
Used to excited delayed and prompy gamma rays from elements in
materials
Neutron emitters can detect light in the nuclei, especially hydrogen
found in water molecules.

Died: Copenhagen,
Denmark, in 1962 of
heart failure
A Doctor of Physics
Background Info.
Awarded Nobel Prize for his work in
the structure of atoms in 1922
Worked under J.J. Thomson in
Cambridge, and later with Ernest
Rutherford in Manchester University,
in the field of physics
The Bohr Model
Developed model of
atom in which
electrons orbited the
nucleus in certain
energy levels. Called
the Bohr Model.
Conducted the Liquid
Drop Experiment.
The Shell Model
Developed Shell Model in which
the outermost orbit of electrons
determined the chemical
properties of the element.
Significance of Bohr and
Shell Model
 Shell Model is used as a basis for Chemistry,
since Chemistry is about the RXNS and
interactions between elements/chemicals
 The Bohr Model gave a more accurate model
of an atom. The fact that electron movement
was not applicable in classical mechanics
caused the introduction of quantum mechanics
into modern science.
