Atomic Structure

Cards (24)

  • Thales, Anaximenes, Heraclitus - stated primal matter made up of matter
  • Aristotle - stated all materials are composed of four elements
  • Democritus and Leucippus - proposed that matter is composed of very tiny particles that cannot be further divided
  • John Dalton - suggested atoms were the smallest unit of an element
  • Joseph John Thompson experiments with Cathode Ray Tubes showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons
  • Name where each charged plates are located
    A) negative plate
    B) positive plate
  • Based on the picture, where did the charge attract?
    Positive Plate
  • Thompson's plum pudding model of the atom had negative charged electrons embedded within a positive charged nucleus
  • Robert Millikan's Oil drop experiment to measure the charge of an atom
  • who are the two scientists that performed the oil drop experiment?
    Robert Millikan
    Harvey Fletcher
  • Ernest Rutherford and his team performed the alpha scattering experiment where he bombarded positive charged alpha particles to a thin gold foil
  • Neil Bohr used Max Planck's Theory on quantized energy of the energy of electrons
  • Ernest Rutherford also discovered protons
  • James Chadwick discovered the neutron in 1932
  • Bohr discovered two state of electrons: ground state and excited state.
  • Ground state - State that is stable in energy
  • Excited state - state that absorb energy and move to a higher energy level
  • Atomic number - distinctive number of protons
  • Mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons
  • Identify the label in the picture
    A) Mass number
    B) Atomic number
  • How to get the atomic number?
    Number of protons or electrons
  • How to get the mass number?
    Mass=protons + neutron
  • How to get neutron?
    Neutron = Mass - Number
  • Identify the labels
    A) Mass number
    B) Symbol
    C) Atomic number
