Atomic Structure
Dalton’s Early Atomic Model
►“Billiard Ball” model
►he envisioned atoms as solid, hard spheres,
like billiard(pool) balls, so he used
wooden balls to model them
J.J. Thomson
1897
Discovered the electron
He was the first scientist to show
the atom was made of even smaller
things
JJ Thomson
►Used the Cathode ray tube to discover
electrons

 Adding an electric field cause the beam to
move toward the positive plate.
 Thomson concluded the beam was made of
negative moving pieces.

Thomson’s “Plum Pudding” Atom Model
Democritus, Dalton, Thomson Video
Eugen Goldstein 1850-1930
Using a cathode ray tube he discovered
canal rays which are beams of positively
charged particles.
He is credited with the discovery of
protons in an atom.
Canal Rays discovery
Millikan’s Oil Drop Experiment
• Determined the charge on an electron
• Used Thomson’s charge to mass ratio to
calculate the mass of an electron

Experiment – another
video
Ernest Rutherford - 1913
• discovered the
nucleus of a
gold atom with
his “gold foil”
experiment
atomic structure theory for best preparation of jee advanced
Using J.J Thomson’s Plum Pudding
atomic model, Rutherford predicted the
alpha particles would pass straight
though the gold foil. That’s not what
happened.
Gold Foil Experiment Results
most alpha particles go straight through
the gold foil
A few alpha particles are sharply deflected
Rutherford’s Conclusion
►The atom is mostly
empty space.
►There is a small,
dense center with a
positive charge.
►Rutherford
discovered the
nucleus in atoms
Rutherford’s Contribution to the
Atomic Theory
►The atom is
mostly empty
space.
►The nucleus is
a small, dense
core with a
positive charge.

Rutherford’s Atomic Model
Structure of the Atom
► Atom – smallest particle of an element that can
exist alone
 Two regions of an atom
►Nucleus
 Center of atom
 Protons and neutrons
►Electron “cloud”
 Area surrounding nucleus
containing electrons
Structure of the Atom
►Proton – Positive charge (+), 1 atomic
mass unit (amu); found in the nucleus
 amu -Approximate mass of a proton or a
neutron
►Neutron – Neutral charge (0), 1 amu;
found in the nucleus
►Electron – Negative charge (-), mass is
VERY small
Counting Atoms
►Atomic Number
 Number of protons in nucleus
 The number of protons determines identity
of the element!!
►Mass Number (Atomic Mass)
 Number of protons + neutrons
 Units are g/mol
Counting Atoms
►Isotopes
 Atoms of the same element with varying
number of neutrons
 Different isotopes have different mass numbers
because the number of neutrons is different
Composition of the atom video
Start at 3:25
Counting Atoms
 Nuclear Symbol Notation
Atoms
►Protons have a positive (+) charge and
electrons have a negative (-) charge
►In a neutral atom, the number of protons
equals the number of electrons, so the
overall charge is zero (0)
 Example/ Helium, with an atomic number of 2,
has 2 protons and 2 electrons when stable
Ions
►In a neutral atom
 Atomic number = # of protons = #of electrons
►Sometimes atoms will gain or lose electrons
and form IONS
►Because an electron has a negative charge:
 When an atom GAINS electrons it becomes
NEGATIVE
 When an atom LOSES electrons it becomes
POSITIVE
Ions
Cation = a positive ion
Anion = a negative ion
Let’s Practice
►Aluminum (Al) (no periodic table)
 Protons = 13
 Electrons =
 Neutrons = 14
 Atomic Number =
 Atomic Mass =
Let’s Practice w/ nuclear symbol
notation
►Nuclear Symbol notation
(no periodic table)
 Protons =
 Electrons =
 Neutrons =
 Atomic Number =
 Atomic Mass =

Let’s Practice w/ isotopes
►use the periodic table
 Protons =
 Electrons =
 Neutrons =
 Atomic Number =
 Atomic Mass =
Uranium-235
Let’s Practice with Ions
Use the periodic table
 Charge =

 Electrons =
 Neutrons =
 Atomic Number =
 Atomic Mass =
