WARM UP
Unit 2: Atomic Theory & Structure
1) Mr. Proton says “I live in the nucleus.”
Mr. Electron asks, “Are you sure?”.
positive
Mr. Proton replies, “Yes, I’m _________.
2) Mr. Neutron was asked if he supported more gun
control or the right to bear arms.
IDK, on most issues I’m neutral.
He replied,“_____________________________”
3) What do you do with dead elements?
Barium (Ba, element # 56)
Unit 2: Atomic Theory &
Structure
Section 1 – Early Models of the
Atom
Early Models of the Atom
(c. 400 B.C.) Democritus
proposed that “atomos”
are indivisible.
Atom: smallest particle of
matter that retains its identity.
(1803) Dalton’s experiments
developed a scientific theory
of atoms.
Dalton’s Atomic Theory
(4 conclusions)
Dalton’s Atomic Theory
1) All matter is composed of
tiny, indivisible atoms.
2) In size, mass, & prop’s
atoms of the same
element are identical,
atoms of different
element are different
Dalton’s Atomic Theory
3) Atoms chemically
combine, separate,
or rearrange.
4) Atoms combine in simple
whole-number ratios to
form compounds.
(Law of Definite Proportions)
(Law of Conservation of Mass)
(1904) J.J. Thomson
Cathode Ray Tube Experiment
Cathode Ray Tube
(1904) J.J. Thomson
Cathode Ray Tube Experiment
 cathode rays deflect toward a positive plate
WHY?
negatively charged
(1904) J.J. Thomson
Cathode Ray Tube Experiment
Conclusion:
 atoms contain negatively charged
particles called electrons
Thomson’s
Plum Pudding Model
atoms are positively
charged material with
negative electrons
evenly distributed
(1911) Ernest Rutherford
Gold Foil Experiment
(expected)
1908 Nobel Prize for
work with radiation
(alpha particles)
(1911) Ernest Rutherford
Gold Foil Experiment
1/10,000 alpha particles deflect from the gold foil
(1911) Ernest Rutherford
Gold Foil Experiment
Conclusion:
 atoms are mostly empty space filled with e–
 the positive charge and mass
are in a tiny central region
nucleus:
tiny, dense, central,
positive core of atoms
containing protons
and neutrons
the atomic nucleus
(1 trillionth of the atom)
The Atomic Nucleus
3 subatomic particles:
≈0
