chemical seperation methods include heating using electricity or light energy
heterogeneous mixture - made up of more than one phase or of different parts can be seperated by physical means.
Democritus - greek philosopher suggested world was made of two things empty space and atomos.
John Dalton - proposed that all matter is composed of tiny particles called atoms.
john dalton is the father of modern atomic theory he propsed that atoms are solid hard spheres like billiard balls.
J.J thomson - discovered the electron he was the first scientist to show the atom was made of even smaller things.
his pludpluddingmodel
he discovered the electorn by the use of cathoderay
Eugen goldstein - he also used the cathode ray and discovered protons.
Ernest rutherford - discoverd the atoms nucleaus by doing a gold foil experiment.
the nucleus is a small dense core with a positive charge.
Neils bohr - electrons are not attracted to the + nucleus and cluster around it.
disaproved rutherford's plantetary model
used the enery level model : electrons are arranged in circles around the nucleus ,each circle has a different energy.
Niels Bohr proposed that electrons can only exist on certain energy levels (shells) around the nucleus, which correspond to specific distances from the nucleus.
The Bohr Model shows how electrons orbit the nucleus at specific distances from the nucleus, known as shells or energy levels.
Atom -smallest particle of an element that can exist alone.
atom has two regions
center of an atom
protons and nuetrons
electron cloud - are surrounding nucleus containinf electorns
proton - positive charge found in the nucleus 1 atomic mass
neutron - neutral charge found in the nucleus
electron -negative charge - mass very small
Atomic number - number of protons in nucleus
the number of nucleus detemines indentity of the element
mass number - number of protons + nuetrons
units are g\mol
isotopes - atoms of the element with varying number of nuetrons
ions- sometimes atoms will gain or lose electrons and form IONS.
when an atom gains electrons it becomes NEGATIVE
when an atom LOSES electrons it becomes POSITIVE.
CATION- positive ion
ANION - a negative ion
atoms - are basic building blocks of matter.
electron cloud - electrons orebit the nucleus
nucleus or core - protons and nuetrons are found in the nucleus
