What is an atom ?
The atom is the smallest unit that defines the chemical
elements and their isotopes. Most matter on Earth is
made up of atoms. The size of atoms is measured in
picometers (trillionths of a meter).
Characteristics of atoms
The atomic number of a chemical element (also known as its proton number) is the
number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom of that element, and therefore
identical to the charge number of the nucleus. It is represented by the symbol Z.
2. Mass number
The mass number (A), also called atomic mass number or nucleon number, it is the
total number of protons and neutrons (together known as nucleons) in an atomic
nucleus.
1. Atomic number
Different Atomic Species
1. Isotopes
2. Isobars
3. Isotones
1.Isotopes
The term isotope is formed from the Greek roots isotopes meaning
"the same place". Thus, different isotopes of a single element occupy
the same position on the periodic table.
2. Isobar
Isobars are atoms (nuclides) of different chemical elements that
have the same number of nucleons. Correspondingly, isobars differ
in atomic number (or number of protons) but have the same mass
number.
3. Isotone
Two nuclides are isotones if they have the very same neutron number
N, but different proton number Z. For example, boron-12 and carbon-
13 nuclei both contain 7 neutrons, and so are isotones.
Electrons
The electron is a subatomic particle, symbol e− with a
negative elementary electric charge. And are generally
thought to be elementary particles because they have
no known components or substructure . And the
electrons were discovered by sir J.J .Thomson
The proton is a subatomic particle, symbol p
or p+, with a positive electric charge of +1e
elementary charge and mass slightly less than
that of a neutron.
Protons
The neutron is a subatomic particle, symbol n .with no
electric charge and a mass slightly larger than that of a
proton. Protons and neutrons, each with mass approximately
one atomic mass unit, constitute the nucleus of an atom, and
they are collectively referred to as "nucleons".
Neutron
Thomson atomic model, earliest theoretical description of the inner
structure of atoms, proposed about 1900 by Lord Kelvin and strongly
supported by Sir Joseph John Thomson, who had discovered (1897)
the electron, a negatively charged part of every atom.
Thomson’s model of atom
The Rutherford model is a model of the atom devised by
Ernest Rutherford. Rutherford directed the famous Geiger–
Marsden experiment in 1909 which suggested, upon
Rutherford's 1911 analysis, that the so-called "plum pudding
model" of J. J. Thomson of the atom was incorrect.
RUTHER FORD’S MODEL OF ATOM
The model introduced by Bohr in 1913, depicts the atom as a
small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons
that travel in circular orbits around the nucleus—similar in
structure to the solar system, but with attraction provided by
electrostatic forces rather than gravity.
