- 4. Discovery of fundamental or subatomic particles The electrons, protons and neutrons are called fundamental particles or fundamental subatomic particles. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 4
- 5. Canal Rays and Protons (1886) Eugene Goldstein noted streams of positively charged particles in cathode rays in 1886. – Particles move in opposite direction of cathode rays. – Called “Canal Rays” because they passed through holes (channels or canals) drilled through the negative electrode. Canal rays must be positive. – Goldstein postulated the existence of a positive fundamental particle called the “proton”. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 5
- 6. Discovery of Electrons (1897) Electrons are discovered by J.J. Thompson when high voltage is applied across a sealed glass tube called the ‘discharge tube’ or CRT at very low pressure. The Discharge He found that what was called as Tube cathode rays until his time was not “rays” but “particles” travelling from cathode to anode. He called them electrons. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 6
- 7. Discovery of Neutrons (1932) James Chadwick in 1932 analyzed the results of α-particle scattering on thin Be films. Chadwick recognized existence of massive neutral particles which he called neutrons. – Chadwick discovered the neutron. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 7
- 8. Characteristics of subatomic particles at a glance 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 8
- 9. Thomson’s Atomic model(1898) (Also called Plum-pudding model) Thomson puts together the subatomic particles and comes forward with his atomic model. In the atom the mass and the positive charge is evenly distributed throughout the atom (like pudding) and the negatively charged electrons are embedded in it like the plum. He could not experimentally prove his model. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 9
- 10. Rutherford’s Alpha particles scattering experiment (1911) Rutherford bombarded Alpha particles on a very thin(0.00006cm) gold foil. Most of the particles passed through, some deflected at large angles and 1 in 20000 deflected back to its own path. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 10
- 11. Inference from Rutherford’s experiment Almost all the Alpha particles passed through the gold foil means Most of the atom is empty space. Some of the + charged alpha particles are deflected at large angles because there is a very tiny dense core of mass and + charge located in the atom. (Called nucleus) 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 11
- 12. Rutherford’s Alpha Rays Scattering Experiment Most of the Alpha Particles passed Through. Alpha One Particles in every 20,000 deflected back on its own path. Source Gold Foil Some Deflected at large angles. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 12
- 13. Rutherford’s Atomic model (1920) Based on his experiment he postulated a model. The important postulates are: The atom is mostly hollow. The mass and the positive charge (protons & neutrons) are located at the center at a very small portion called nucleus. The electrons revolve around the Also called Planetary nucleus like the planets revolve model around the sun. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 13
- 14. Atomic (z)# and Mass # Atomic # is the # of protons present inside the nucleus of an atom. It’s unique to each element therefore, its the identity of an element. No two elements can have the same atomic number. Elements are listed in the periodic table in the increasing order of their atomic numbers. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 14
- 15. Mass # (A) Mass # is the sum of the # of protons and neutrons present inside the nucleus of an atom. Therefore, must be a whole # not decimal. A = p + n OR A = Z + n The periodic table lists the average atomic mass not the mass #. Atomic mass rounded to nearest whole number is the Mass #. Mass # has no units. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 15

- 22. Problems with Rutherford’s model As per the classical laws of Physics: if a particle (electron) is revolving around oppositely charged particle (positive nucleus), the revolving particle loses its energy continuously and finally falls in to the central particle. Therefore the atom should collapse.But this is not happening in nature. If the negatively charged electron is revolving around positively charged nucleus, the atomic spectra should be a band spectrum but in nature the atomic spectrum is line spectrum. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 22
- 23. Band spectrum When white light is passed through a prism, it splits in to 7 different colors and they appear as bands of 7 colors on a film or screen. (Example in nature: Rainbow) This is called a band spectrum. It is not a characteristic of an atomic spectrum 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 23
- 24. Line Spectrum or Atomic emission spectrum When electricity is passed through a tube filled with a gas (Ex.CRT), light will be emitted. If the emitted light is passed through the prism and its image is recorded on a film it appears as ‘sharp lines on black background’. This is called line spectrum or “atomic emission spectrum” .Every element has a characteristic emission spectrum of its own. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 24
- 25. Absorption spectrum An absorption spectrum is formed by shining a beam of white light through a sample of gas. – Absorption spectra indicate the wavelengths of light that have been absorbed by the gas. – It appears as dark lines on bright background. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 25
- 26. Characteristics of Light 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 26
- 27. Characteristics of Light Velocity (c): Distance traveled by light in 1 second. It’s a constant 3.00 x 10 8 m/s c=ν λ Wave length (λ): Distance between any two similar points on successive waves. Measured in m or nm (nano meters) 1nm = 10 – 9 m = 10 – 7 cm λ =c/ν Frequency (ν ): # of waves that cross a given point in 1 second. Measured in Hertz (Hz) or cycles per Hz second (cps) ν = c / λ cps Amplitude: Height of a crest or depth of a trough. Refers to the intensity of light. Energy (E): Energy contained in a wave. Measured in Joules (J) E = h ν Where h is Planck’s constant (6.626 x 10-34 J) 08/19/12 Complete Characteristics of light Worksheet Mr. Sohail's 27
- 28. Frequency, Wavelength & Energy relationships When frequency increases: Energy increases Wavelength decreases When Wavelength increases: Energy decreases Frequency decreases When amplitude decreases: intensity (brightness of light) decreases 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 28
- 29. Bohr’s atomic model Neils Bohr presented his atomic model retaining the basic idea of Rutherford’s model. The important postulates are: 1. Electrons revolve around the nucleus in definite, closed, circular paths called orbits. 2. Each orbit is associated with a definite amount of energy therefore also called as energy level. 3. These orbits or energy levels are numbered 1,2,3,4….. or K,L,M,N…. from inside onwards. Bigger the orbit, They are also called principal greater is the energy quantum levels, represented by associated with it. ‘n’. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 29
- 30. Bohr’s model Continued:- 4. More than one energy levels are possible for an electron. However, as long as an electron is in an energy level its energy remains constant. 5. When an electron gains energy it jumps from lower energy level to higher. 6. When it jumps back from higher energy level to lower, it loses energy in 7. The energy released ( ∆E )can be the form of light. calculated by: Where ‘h’ is Planck’s constant, ‘v’ is the frequency of light emitted. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 30
- 31. Modern Model or Wave Mechanical Model or Quantum Mechanical Model of the atom 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 31
- 32. Particle nature of light(1901) Max Planck's Quantum Theory Max Planck studied the radiation emitted by various objects at high temperatures and came to a conclusion that: Light is absorbed or emitted by matter in the form of discrete packets of energy. Each energy packet is called Photon and the energy it holds is termed Quantum. The energy contained in each PHOTON of light is directly proportional to its frequency and can be calculated by the equation: E=hv Where h is Planck’s constant (6.626 x 10-34 J) Planck’s quantum theory helped understanding the phenomenon of Photoelectric effect (ejection of electrons from the surface of metal when light of a certain frequency 08/19/12 falls on it.) Mr. Sohail's 32
- 33. DeBroglie’s Dual nature of electron Based on Planck’s quantum theory and Bohr’s quantized orbits, De Broglie suggested that: every moving particle exhibits a wave nature so also the electrons. electrons behave more like waves on a vibrating string than like particles. The wave length of any particle wave can be calculated by the equation: λ =h/mv (De Broglie’s equation) 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 33
- 34. Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle Its impossible to find out both the position and the speed of an electron accurately at the same time. It is because to locate an electron, light, having wave length shorter than the size of an electron should fall on it and be reflected. Light with such a short wave length will have very high energy, which will energize the electron. Therefore, its velocity around the nucleus will increase. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 34

- 41. Atomic Orbitals As it is impossible to locate an electron’s exact position at a given time, therefore: The area around the nucleus where the probability of finding an electron is maximum is called an orbital. There are 4 atomic orbitals discovered so far. They are s,p,d,f The s orbital is spherical shaped electron cloud, the p orbital is a dumbbell shaped electron cloud and the d orbital is a double dumbbell and the f orbital is an 8 lobbed dumbbell. 08/19/12 Mr. Sohail's 41
