S 1-5 1. Define Each of the Following: A. Atom B. Electron C. Nucleus D Page 74 #’s 1-5 1. Define each of the following: a. atom b. electron c. nucleus d. proton e. neutron a. the smallest piece of an element that is still that element b. a negative part of the atom which give the atom its volume c. the positively charged, extremely dense center part of an atom that contains nearly all the atom's mass but takes up a extremely small part of its volume d. the subatomic particle that has a positive charge equal (in size) to the negative charge of an electron; found in the nucleus e. the electrically neutral subatomic particle found in atomic nuclei 2. Describe one conclusion made by each of the following scientists that led to the development of the current atomic theory: a. Thomson b. Millikan c. Rutherford a. concluded that all atoms have charged parts some positive, some negative b. confirmed the negative charge of the electron and suggested the mass of an electron is ~ 1/2000 of the mass of a hydrogen atom c. determined that most of the mass of an atom is found in the nucleus and that the nucleus occupies very little space within an atom 3. Compare and contrast the three types of subatomic particles in terms of location in the atom, mass, and relative charge. Electrons surround the nucleus and have a negative charge and small mass relative to protons and neutrons Most of an atom's mass Is In its nucleus, which is near the center and is composed of protons and neutrons Protons have a positive charge; neutrons have no charge. 4. Why is the cathode-ray tube in Figure 3-4 connected to a vacuum pump? Because charges (Electrons) will flow through gases only at very low pressures 5. Label the charge on the following in a cathode-ray tube. State the reasons for your answers. a. anode: positive, connected to the positive terminal of the voltage source b. cathode: negative, connected to the negative terminal of the voltage source Page 87 #’s 3-6 3. a. What is an atom? b. What two regions make up all atoms? a. the smallest piece of an element that keeps the chemical properties of that element b. the nucleus and the electron clouds 4. Describe at least four properties of electrons that were determined based on the experiments of Thomson and Millikan. An electron is negatively charged (Thomson), it has a mass approximately 1/2000 that of a hydrogen atom (Millikan), it has a fixed charge-to-mass ratio (Millikan), and it is present in atoms of all elements (Thomson). 5. Summarize Rutherford’s model of an atom, and explain how he developed this model based on the results of his famous gold-foil experiment. His model had mostly all of the mass in the nucleus; He bombarded gold atoms with positively charged particles (beta particles). Most beta particles went through the atom, but some bounced back (the atom is mostly empty space with the very small, very dense nucleus at the center – giving the atom its mass; and the electrons spinning around the nucleus – giving the atom its volume. 6.

  • The Subatomic Particle Mass Spectrum
    The Subatomic Particle Mass Spectrum Robert L. Oldershaw 12 Emily Lane Amherst, MA 01002 USA [email protected] Key Words: Subatomic Particles; Particle Mass Spectrum; General Relativity; Kerr Metric; Discrete Self-Similarity; Discrete Scale Relativity 1 Abstract: Representative members of the subatomic particle mass spectrum in the 100 MeV to 7,000 MeV range are retrodicted to a first approximation using the Kerr solution of General Relativity. The particle masses appear to form a restricted set of quantized values of a Kerr- based angular momentum-mass relation: M = n1/2 M, where values of n are a set of discrete integers and M is a revised Planck mass. A fractal paradigm manifesting global discrete self- similarity is critical to a proper determination of M, which differs from the conventional Planck mass by a factor of roughly 1019. This exceedingly simple and generic mass equation retrodicts the masses of a representative set of 27 well-known particles with an average relative error of 1.6%. A more rigorous mass formula, which includes the total spin angular momentum rule of Quantum Mechanics, the canonical spin values of the particles, and the dimensionless rotational parameter of the Kerr angular momentum-mass relation, is able to retrodict the masses of the 8 dominant baryons in the 900 MeV to 1700 MeV range at the < 99.7% > level. 2 “There remains one especially unsatisfactory feature [of the Standard Model of particle physics]: the observed masses of the particles, m. There is no theory that adequately explains these numbers. We use the numbers in all our theories, but we do not understand them – what they are, or where they come from.

  • 22. Atomic Physics and Quantum Mechanics
    22. Atomic Physics and Quantum Mechanics S. Teitel April 14, 2009 Most of what you have been learning this semester and last has been 19th century physics. Indeed, Maxwell's theory of electromagnetism, combined with Newton's laws of mechanics, seemed at that time to express virtually a complete \solution" to all known physical problems. However, already by the 1890's physicists were grappling with certain experimental observations that did not seem to fit these existing theories. To explain these puzzling phenomena, the early part of the 20th century witnessed revolutionary new ideas that changed forever our notions about the physical nature of matter and the theories needed to explain how matter behaves. In this lecture we hope to give the briefest introduction to some of these ideas. 1 Photons You have already heard in lecture 20 about the photoelectric effect, in which light shining on the surface of a metal results in the emission of electrons from that surface. To explain the observed energies of these emitted elec- trons, Einstein proposed in 1905 that the light (which Maxwell beautifully explained as an electromagnetic wave) should be viewed as made up of dis- crete particles. These particles were called photons. The energy of a photon corresponding to a light wave of frequency f is given by, E = hf ; where h = 6:626×10−34 J · s is a new fundamental constant of nature known as Planck's constant. The total energy of a light wave, consisting of some particular number n of photons, should therefore be quantized in integer multiples of the energy of the individual photon, Etotal = nhf.

  • Chapter 11: Modernatomictheory 105
    CHAPTER 11 Modern Atomic Theory INTRODUCTION It is difficult to form a mental image of atoms because we can’t see them. Scientists have produced models that account for the behavior of atoms by making observations about the properties of atoms. So we know quite a bit about these tiny particles which make up matter even though we cannot see them. In this chapter you will learn how chemists believe atoms are structured. CHAPTER DISCUSSION This is yet another chapter in which models play a significant role. Recall that we like models to be simple, but we also need models to explain the questions we want to answer. For example, Dalton’s model of the atom has the advantage of being quite simple and is useful when considering molecular- level views of solids, liquids, and gases and in representing chemical equations. However, it cannot explain fundamental questions such as why atoms “stick” together to form molecules. Scientists such as Thomson and Rutherford expanded the model of the atom to include subatomic particles. The model is more complicated than Dalton’s, but it begins to explain chemical reactivity (electrons are involved) and formulas for ionic compounds. But questions still abound. For example, why are there similarities in reactivities of elements (periodic trends)? To begin our understanding of modern atomic theory, let’s first discuss some observations. For example, you have undoubtedly seen a fireworks display, either in person or on television. Where do the colors come from? How do we get so many different colors? It turns out that different salts, when heated, give off different colors.

  • Make an Atom Vocabulary Grade Levels
    MAKE AN ATOM Fundamental to physical science is a basic understanding of the atom. Atoms are comprised of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons are at the center of the atom while electrons live in lobe-shaped clouds outside the nucleus. The number of electrons usually matches the number of protons, yielding a net neutral charge for the atom. Sometimes an atom has less neutrons or more neutrons than protons. This is called an isotope. If an atom has different numbers of electrons than protons, then it is an ion. If an atom has different numbers of protons, it is a different element all together. Scientists at Idaho National Laboratory study, create, and use radioactive isotopes like Uranium 234. The 234 means this isotope has an atomic mass of 234 Atomic Mass Units (AMU). GRADE LEVELS: 3-8 VOCABULARY Atom – The basic unit of a chemical element. Proton – A stable subatomic particle occurring in all atomic nuclei, with a positive electric charge equal in magnitude to that of an electron, but of opposite sign. Neutron – A subatomic particle of about the same mass as a proton but without an electric charge, present in all atomic nuclei except those of ordinary hydrogen. Electron – A stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids. Orbital – Each of the actual or potential patterns of electron density that may be formed on an atom or molecule by one or more electrons. Ion – An atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons.
