Chapter 2 Atoms, Molecules, and Ions John D. Bookstaver St. Charles Community College Cottleville, MO Lecture Presentation © 20 12  Pearson Education, Inc.
Atomic Theory of Matter The theory that atoms are the fundamental building blocks of matter reemerged in the early nineteenth century, championed by John Dalton.
Dalton's Postulates Each element is composed of extremely small particles called  atoms .
Dalton's Postulates All atoms of a given element are identical to one another in mass and other properties, but the atoms of one element are different from the atoms of all other elements.
Dalton's Postulates Atoms of an element are not changed into atoms of a different element by chemical reactions; atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions.
Dalton's Postulates Compounds  are formed when atoms of more than one element combine; a given compound always has the same relative number and kind of atoms.
Law of Conservation of Mass The  total mass  of substances present at the end of a chemical process is the same as the mass of substances present before the process took place.
The Electron Streams of negatively charged particles were found to emanate from cathode tubes, causing fluorescence. J. J. Thomson is credited with their discovery (1897).
The Electron Thomson measured the charge/mass ratio of the electron to be 1.76    10 8  coulombs/gram (C/g).
Millikan Oil-Drop Experiment Once the charge/mass ratio of the electron was known, determination of either the charge or the mass of an electron would yield the other.
Millikan Oil-Drop Experiment Robert Millikan (University of Chicago) determined the charge on the electron in 1909.
Radioactivity Radioactivity  is the spontaneous emission of radiation by an atom. It was first observed by Henri Becquerel. Marie and Pierre Curie also studied it.
Radioactivity Three types of radiation were discovered by Ernest Rutherford:    particles    particles    rays
The Atom, circa 1900 The prevailing theory was that of the “plum pudding” model, put forward by Thomson. It featured a positive sphere of matter with negative electrons imbedded in it.
Discovery of the Nucleus Ernest Rutherford shot    particles at a thin sheet of gold foil and observed the pattern of scatter of the particles.
The Nuclear Atom Since some particles were deflected at large angles, Thomson’s model could not be correct.
The Nuclear Atom Rutherford postulated a very small, dense nucleus with the electrons around the outside of the atom. Most of the volume of the atom is empty space.
Other Subatomic Particles Protons were discovered by Rutherford in 1919. Neutrons were discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.
Subatomic Particles Protons and electrons are the only particles that have a charge. Protons and neutrons have essentially the same mass. The mass of an electron is so small we ignore it.
Symbols of Elements Elements are symbolized by one or two letters.
Symbols of Elements All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons, which is called the  atomic number ,  Z .
Symbols of Elements The mass of an atom in atomic mass units (amu) is the total number of protons and neutrons in the atom.
Isotopes Isotopes  are atoms of the same element with different masses. Isotopes have different numbers of neutrons.
Atomic Mass Atomic and molecular masses can be measured with great accuracy using a mass spectrometer.
Average Mass Because in the real world we use large amounts of atoms and molecules, we use average masses in calculations. Average mass  is calculated from the isotopes of an element weighted by their relative abundances.
Periodic Table The  periodic table   is a systematic catalog of the elements. Elements are arranged in order of atomic number.
Periodic Table The rows on the periodic chart are periods. Columns are groups. Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties.
Periodicity When one looks at the chemical properties of elements, one notices a repeating pattern of reactivities.
Groups These five groups are known by their names.
Periodic Table Nonmetals are on the right side of the periodic table (with the exception of H).
Periodic Table Metalloids border the stair-step line (with the exception of Al, Po, and At).
Periodic Table Metals are on the left side of the chart.
Chemical Formulas The subscript to the right of the symbol of an element tells the number of atoms of that element in one molecule of the compound.
Chemical Formulas Molecular compounds  are composed of molecules and almost always contain only nonmetals.
Diatomic Molecules These seven elements occur naturally as molecules containing two atoms: Hydrogen Nitrogen Oxygen Fluorine Chlorine Bromine Iodine
Types of Formulas Empirical formulas  give the lowest whole-number ratio of atoms of each element in a compound. Molecular formulas  give the exact number of atoms of each element in a compound.
Types of Formulas Structural formulas  show the order in which atoms are bonded. Perspective drawings  also show the three-dimensional array of atoms in a compound.
Ions When atoms lose or gain electrons, they become  ions . Cations  are positive and are formed by elements on the left side of the periodic chart. Anions  are negative and are formed by elements on the right side of the periodic chart.
Ionic Bonds Ionic compounds  (such as NaCl) are generally formed between metals and nonmetals.
Writing Formulas Because compounds are electrically neutral, one can determine the formula of a compound this way: The charge on the cation becomes the subscript on the anion. The charge on the anion becomes the subscript on the cation. If these subscripts are not in the lowest whole-number ratio, divide them by the greatest common factor.
Common Cations
Common Anions
Inorganic Nomenclature Write the name of the cation. If the anion is an element, change its ending to  - ide ; if the anion is a polyatomic ion, simply write the name of the polyatomic ion. If the cation can have more than one possible charge, write the charge as a Roman numeral in parentheses.
Patterns in Oxyanion Nomenclature When there are two oxyanions involving the same element: The one with fewer oxygens ends in  - ite . The one with more oxygens ends in  - ate . NO 2 −  :  nitrite ;  SO 3 2 −  :  sulfite NO 3 −  :  nitrate;  SO 4 2 −  :  sulfate
Patterns in Oxyanion Nomenclature Central atoms on the second row have bond to at most three oxygens; those on the third row take up to four. Charges increase as you go from  right  to  left .
Patterns in Oxyanion Nomenclature The one with the second fewest oxygens ends in  - ite . ClO 2 −  : chlorite The one with the second most oxygens ends in  -ate . ClO 3 −  : chlorate
Patterns in Oxyanion Nomenclature The one with the fewest oxygens has the prefix  hypo -  and ends in  - ite . ClO −   :  hypochlorite The one with the most oxygens has the prefix  per -  and ends in  - ate . ClO 4 −   :  perchlorate
Acid Nomenclature If the anion in the acid ends in  - ide , change the ending to  - ic acid  and add the prefix  hydro -  . HCl:  hydrochloric acid HBr:  hydrobromic acid HI:  hydroiodic acid
Acid Nomenclature If the anion in the acid ends in  - ite , change the ending to  - ous acid . HClO: hypochlorous acid HClO 2 : chlorous acid
Acid Nomenclature If the anion in the acid ends in  - ate , change the ending to  - ic acid . HClO 3 :  chloric acid HClO 4 :  perchloric acid
Nomenclature of Binary Compounds The less electronegative atom is usually listed first.  A prefix is used to denote the number of atoms of each element in the compound ( mono -  is not used on the first element listed, however) .
Nomenclature of Binary Compounds The ending on the more electronegative element is changed to  - ide . CO 2 : carbon dioxide CCl 4 : carbon tetrachloride
Nomenclature of Binary Compounds If the prefix ends with  a  or  o  and the name of the element begins with a vowel, the two successive vowels are often elided into one. N 2 O 5 :  dinitrogen pentoxide
Nomenclature of Organic Compounds Organic chemistry  is the study of carbon. Organic chemistry has its own system of nomenclature.
Nomenclature of Organic Compounds The simplest hydrocarbons (compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen) are  alkanes .
Nomenclature of Organic Compounds The first part of the names just listed correspond to the number of carbons ( meth-  = 1,  eth-  = 2,  prop-  = 3, etc.).
Nomenclature of Organic Compounds When a hydrogen in an alkane is replaced with something else (a  functional group , like -OH in the compounds above), the name is derived from the name of the alkane. The ending denotes the type of compound. An   alcohol  ends in - ol .
