AP Chemistry Notes – Chapter 2 Chemistry Notes – Chapters 5 & 7 Atoms and Elements What is sciences view on the cosmic origin of the elements that we take for granted in our environment and lives? • “Big Bang” Theory: (grapefruit sized sphere of matter exploded 15 billion years ago creating a cloud with a temperature of 1030 K, filled with protons, neutrons, and electrons. The cloud then cooled and the protons, neutrons and electrons began to form helium and hydrogen) • The Sun: After thousands of years it is believed that the hydrogen and helium condensed into stars like our sun. Each second in the sun 700 million tons of hydrogen is converted into 695 million tons of helium and 3.9 x 1026 joules of energy. The mass that appeared lost was converted to pure energy (E = mc2). H + H He + Energy Fusion • Supernovas: Exploding stars observed by us are called supernovas. Supernovas can be thought of as factories for heavier elements (elements larger than hydrogen and helium). It is thought the heavy elements produced from these supernovas move out through space and gradually condense into planets like Earth 2.1 Protons, Electrons, and Neutrons: Atomic Theory A. Many of the experiments that have led to our current MODEL of the atoms involved: 1. Electricity (1700’s) – Benjamin Franklin o o o Identified the existence positive (+) and (-) charges Opposite charges neutralize each other Like charges repel each other while unlike charges attract one another 2. Radioactivity (1899) – Henri Becquerel and Madame Curie o Uranium emitted rays that were named radioactivity, substances that emitted these rays are said to be radioactive. o Madame Curie isolated polonium and radium that emitted radioactivity Positively Charged Plate + Radioactive Source Detector Plate (Film) Negatively Charged Plate Alpha Radiation (α) - Large massed particles, charged with a +2 charge Beta Radiation (β) - Small massed particles, with a –1 charge Gamma Radiation (γ) - No charge or mass 1 B. The Nuclear Model of the Atom • All matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms • An atom is more than 1 000 000X smaller than the thickness of a single hair on your head. • Atoms have the same basic parts Atom Most of the Mass Most of the space Nucleus Electron Cloud (nucleons) Neutrons Uncharged Particles Protons = Electrons Positively Charged Particles Negatively Charged Particles Electrically Neutral C. Experiments Leading to “NUCLEAR MODEL” of the Atom Scientist Description Name of Experiment John Dalton (1780’s) Dalton’s Atomic Theory (model) Dalton’s Atomic Theory *1) All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms *2) Atoms of the same element are identical. Atoms of any one element are different from any other element. 3) Atoms of different elements can physically MIX together OR can CHEMICALLY COMBINE with one another in whole-number ratios to make compounds. Outcome 4) Chemical reactions occur when atoms separated, joined or rearranged. Atoms of one element are never changed into atoms of another element as a result of a chemical reaction *Later proved wrong by other observations and experiments 2 JJ Thompson (1876) A beam of electrons (cathode rays) passes through an electric and magnetic field and were deflected away from the negative plate Cathode Ray Experiment *electrons discovered *charge to mass ratio electrons *protons discovered Thompson’s Cathode Ray Experiment Eugene Goldstein (1876) A beam of protons (canal rays) passes through an electric and magnetic field and were deflected away from the positive plate Canal Ray Experiment Robert Millikan (1912) Oil drops that had electrons adhered to them fell between two charged plates, by adjusting charge an the plates and by using Thompson’s charge to mass ratio he determined the mass and charge of an electron Oil Drop Experiment * Mass of an electron 9.11 x 10-28g *Charge of an electron -1.60 x 10-19 C Millikan’s Oil Drop Experiment 3 Ernest Rutherford A beam of positive alpha (α) was directed at a piece of thin gold foil. A screen was was used to detect particles passing through. Most alpha particles passed through but some were deflected from their path (even backwards) by the dense, positively charged nucleus of some of the gold atoms.

Atomic Number (Z) The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of an element is its atomic number, given the symbol Z. • • • • • All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons in the nucleus. • The number of protons in an atom of any element can be found on the periodic table: Atoms of an element have the same number of protons as electrons making them ___________________. Chemical properties (how atoms react) of an element depends on the number of electrons in its atoms. The identity of an atom can be determined from the number of the protons in the nucleus.

Relative Atomic Mass and the Atomic Mass Unit What is the mass of an atom of an element? • Masses of atoms are always determined RELATIVE to the carbon atom that is made up of 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons. This carbon atom has been assigned a mass of EXACTLY 12.000 atomic mass units (amu). • One atomic mass unit, 1 amu, is 1/12th the mass of carbon atom that is made up of 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons. • The “amu” can be related to the gram by the following conversion factor: 1 amu = 1.661 x 10-24 g 5 For example: An oxygen atom has been found to be 1.33X the mass of a carbon atom with 6 protons, 6 neutrons and 6 electrons (12.00 amu). What is its mass in amu’s? grams? C.

Only in VERY few instances (for example, aluminum, fluorine, and phosphorous) do all atoms of the same element have the same mass. Most elements consist of atoms having different mass numbers. Atoms with the same atomic number (number of protons) but different mass numbers (different number of neutrons) are called isotopes. Sample of Neon Atoms ?? ??

The mass spectrometer is an analytical instrument used to measure atomic masses (mass of atoms) and molecular masses (masses of molecules) directly. A. Isotope Abundance o o Isotope Mass (amu) Relative Percent Abundance Abundance ______ 19.9924 ________ ________ ______ 20.9940 ________ ________ ______ 21.9914 ________ ________ Important points regarding exact atomic masses: The exact mass of any isotope of an element is not an integral (whole) number (except for carbon-12, which is EXACTLY 12.000 by definition). The exact mass of any atom is slightly less than the sum of the masses of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom. This difference is sometimes called the mass defect, and is related to the mass that was converted to energy (E = mc2) to bind the particles found in the nucleus (protons and neutrons) together. 9 B. Using Mass Spectrometer Data to Calculate the Atomic Weight of an Element The atomic weight an atom of an element must be somewhere between the exact atomic masses of each isotope. The atomic weight of an element is a weighted average of the exact masses of each isotope of an element. This is why atomic weights are NEVER whole numbers. Atomic =(relative abundance Isotope 1)(Exact Mass Isotope 1) + (relative abundance Isotope 2)(Exact Mass Isotope 2). . . Weight Practice: 1. If you could count out 10,000 boron atoms from a natural sample 1991 of them would be boron-10 and 8009 of them would be boron-11 atoms. The percent of a certain isotope in a sample of a naturally occurring element is termed percent abundance. RELATIVE ABUNDANCE Percent Abundance = number of atoms of a given isotope total number of atoms sampled X 100% = PERCENT ABUNDANCE X 100% = a. Calculate the abundance of each isotope of Boron: Isotope Relative Mass Boron Sample 8009 10 000 Boron atoms 1991 Relative Abundance Percent Abundance 11 B 5 or Boron-11 11.0093 amu ___________ ____________ 10 B 5 or Boron-10 10.0129 amu ___________ ____________ Total ___________ ____________ b. Calculate the weighted average atomic mass of Boron: 10 2. a) Argon has three isotopes with 18, 20, and 22 neutrons, respectively. What are the mass numbers and symbols of these three isotopes? b) Gallium has two isotopes: Gallium-69 and Gallium-71. i) How many protons and neutrons are in the nuclei of each isotope? Protons Neutrons Gallium-69 _______ _______ Gallium-71 _______ _______ ii) If the abundance of Gallium-69 is 60.1%, what is the abundance of Gallium-71?_____ Mass Defect Problem (E = mc2) You might expect the mass of a deuterium (2H), would be the sum of the masses of one proton and one neutron Mass of proton + Mass neutron = Mass Deuterium Atom 1.007276 amu 1.008665 2.015941 However the actual mass of 2H (which is actually measured to be 2.01355 amu using a mass spectrometer) is LESS than the some of its constituents. Where did the mass disappear to? = = = Actual mass of Deuterium - Theoretical mass of Deuterium ________________amu The”missing mass” is converted to energy, the binding energy (E= mc2) 2.4 Atomic Weight (Mass) of Elements • The mass shown on the periodic table is the weighted average of the exact masses of each isotope of an element 29 Cu 63.546 • The mass shown on the periodic table when rounded is indicative of the most abundant isotope of an element. • ISOTOPES OF THE SAME ELEMENT CHEMICALLY REACT IDENTICALLY. 11 Practice Calculating the Atomic Weight of an Element: Using the percent abundance and atomic masses of each of nitrogen’s isotopes given on page 8 of this packet of notes, calculate the average atomic mass of nitrogen. Calculating the Abundances of an Isotope The element europium exists in nature as two isotopes: europium-151 which has a mass of 150.9196 amu and europium-153 which has a mass of 152.9209. The weighted average atomic mass of europium is 151.96 amu. Calculate the relative abundance of each isotope of europium Element Symbol Atomic Weight Mass Number Isotopic Mass Abundance (weighted avg) (amu) Europium Eu 151.96 151 153 150.9196 152.9209 _______% _______% 12 Practice Calculating the Abundance of Isotopes of an Element: 1) Using the data from page 7 of this packet of notes, calculate the abundances of each of the two isotopes of chlorine. 2) Thallium has two stable isotopes, 203Tl and 205Tl. What is the weighted average atomic weight of thallium? Which isotope is more abundant? Explain 2.5 Atoms and the Mole (Counting by Weighing) In chemistry we need a method of counting atoms, no matter how small they are. We must be able to connect the macroscopic world (what we can see) with the microscopic world of atoms, molecules and ions. We do this by defining a convenient unit of matter that contains a known number of particles. The chemical counting quantity is the mole (mol). The mole is the SI base unit for measuring the amount of a substance. A mole is the amount of a substance that contains as many elementary entities (atoms, molecules, or anything else) as there are atoms in exactly 12 g of the carbon-12 isotope In 12.0 g of carbon-12 atoms there are 6.02 x 1023 atoms (this is Avogadro’s Number) 1 2.0 g carbon-12 atoms = 6.02 x 1023 carbon atoms = 1 mole Avogadro’s Number The Molar Mass The mass in grams of one mole of atoms of any element (6.02 x 1023 atoms of that element) is the molar mass of that element. The units for the molar mass of an element are grams/mole. For elements, molar mass is an amount in grams numerically equal to the atomic mass in atomic mass units. This value is most easily found on the periodic table: 13 Counting ATOMS By Weighing = 63.546 g/mol 29 Cu = mass of 6.02 x 1023 Cu atoms 63.546 Molar mass of copper (Cu) = In other words… mass of exactly mol of Cu atoms 1 mole Cu = 6.02 x 1023 atoms of Cu = 63.546 g Cu Practice: 1) a) What is the mass, in grams, of 1.5 mol of copper? b) If a copper ornament has a mass of 2.0 g, how many copper atoms are in the ornament? c) If a copper ornament has a mass of 2.0 g, how many moles of copper atoms are in the ornament? d) What is the mass of a single atom of copper? 14 Homework 2) i) A lead fishing weight has a mass of ______g, Conversion Table: 1 mole Pb atoms = ______________g Pb a a) How many moles of lead atoms are present? = 6.02 x 1023 atoms of Pb b) How many lead atoms are present? c) What is the mass of one atom of lead in grams? 3) The mass of a single piece of pencil graphite (pure carbon) is ____________g.

Upon studying the chemical and physical properties of the elements known at his time (1869) he realized elements with similar properties appeared in a regular pattern (periodicity). He organized the elements into a table by lining them up in a horizontal row in order of increasing atomic mass. Every time he came to an element similar to one already in the row, he started a new row. The columns then contained elements with similar chemical and physical properties. 18 Moseley In 1913, H.G.J Moseley REORDERED the table so that elements were organized into a table by increasing atomic number. The law of chemical periodicity is now stated as “ the properties of the elements are periodic functions of their _______________________________. 2.7 An Overview of the Elements The groups of the periodic table have similar chemical and physical properties, and several of these groups have distinct names that are important to know: Group 1A (1) – The Alkali Metals All elements are metals and solids at room temperature. All metals in this group are VERY reactive this means in nature you find these elements in compounds. These elements react with water to produce alkaline (basic) solutions. Group 2A (2) – The Alkaline Earth Metals All elements are metals and solids at room temperature. All metals in this group are VERY reactive this means in nature you find these elements in compoundsThese elements (Except Beryllium) react with water to produce alkaline (basic) solutions. 19 Groups 1B-8B Transition Metals All elements in this portion of the periodic table are metals Virtually all transition metals have commercial uses. Commercial Uses of Transition Metals: Structural Material: Iron (Fe), Titanium (Ti), Paints: Chromium (Cr), Copper (Cu) Titanium (Ti), Chromium (Cr) Catalytic Converters: Platinum (Pl) Coins: Copper (Cu), Nickel (Ni), Zinc (Zn) Nuclear Power Plants: Uranium-235 (235U) Biological Roles of Transition Metals: Red Blood Cell –Iron (Fe) is found in the ___________ carrying component of our blood (hemoglobin). Group 3A (13)- Boron Group (Family) Al, Ga, In, and Tl are all metals whereas Boron (B) is a metalloid Aluminum (Al) is the most abundant metal in the earth’s crust Group 4A (14) – Carbon Group (Family) Starting in this group, groups will begin to contain more and more non-metals. Nonmetals: Carbon Metalloids: Silicon, Germanium Metals: Tin, Lead Carbon is the basis for the great variety of compounds that make-up living things. Carbon can exist in several distinct forms Graphite each with their own distinct set of Diamond chemical and physical properties Bucky Ball Carbon Buckminsterfullerene (BuckyBall Carbon) Allotropes- Distinct forms of an element with their own unique physical and chemical properties Group 5A (15) – Nitrogen Group (Family) Nitrogen (N2) is the most abundant element in the Earth’s atmosphere. Nitrogen is also a critical element found in chlorophyll, proteins, and DNA. Phosphorous is essential to life as a constituent in bones and teeth. 20 Group 6A (16) – Oxygen Family Oxygen (O2) is the second most abundant element in the Earth’s atmosphere. Most of the energy that powers life on Earth is derived from reactions in which oxygen combines with other substances.
