Period 7.
•Pre-Socratic philosopher
•Born in Abdera, Elea, or Miletus in the 5th
Century B.C.

• Lived from 460-370 B.C
• Ancient Greek philosopher
• His mentor was Leucippus
• The two of them worked together on atoms
•He was more of a scientists than other Greek philosophers
•Leucippus and Democritus realized that the world consisted of myriads of indivisible particles, called atoms which were the smallest particles of matter possible
•Upon further speculation, they came up with the idea that the observable properties
of common materials are because of the different shapes of atoms which they contain, or different motions of atoms
• Lived from 384 to 322 BC
• He was a Greek philosopher
• A student of Plato and a teacher of Alexander the Great
• Had ideas referring to many different subjects

• Aristotle’s Theory of the Elements: A piece of matter could be divided an infinite number of times and one would never
find a piece of matter that could be further divided
• He believed in the four elements: earth, fire, water, and air
• According to him, everything in the world was made up of some combination of these four elements
•At this time this was the most popular theory.
•The atomic theories that were created at this time were not 100% accurate; however, they provided insight in an
area never explored before•The central ideas of Leucippus and
Democritus have remained unchanged
Antoine Lavoisier & The Law of Conservation of Matter
By: Jin Shin & Taylor Seeman
Born: August 26, 1743
Died: May 8, 1794
“Father of Modern Chemistry”
• Attended the College Mazarin at the request of his aunt
• College Mazarin had an excellent mathematics and science program
• Lavoisier was a brilliant student, and earned numerous awards
• He conducted his first few experiments individually or while aiding professors.
Educational Background
Experiment
• Lavoisier burnt phosphorous and sulfur in air and proved the products weighed more than the reactants but the weight gained was lost from the air.
Experiment
• When you heat a piece of copper metal in air, it comes together with oxygen in the air. If you weigh it, it is found to have a greater mass that the original piece. However, the mass of the oxygen of the air is combined with the mass of copper, the mass of the product is equal to the sum of the masses of the copper and oxygen that were combined.
Significance of Concept
• Showed that the quantity of matter is the same in the beginning and end of every chemical reaction, though matter may change its state.
• Though matter may change form, it can neither be created nor destroyed
• Mass of reactants always equal the mass of products
Significance of Concept
• Law demonstrates understanding of the properties of movement and energy.
• It is a fundamental principle of physics.

Experiment
• Proust prepared a copper carbonate compound
• He heated it, getting rid of the water and then the carbonic acid, or what was left of the copper oxide
• - From the 180 lbs of "copper carbonate" (it was actually carbon dioxide) he took away 10 lbs of water and 46 of the carbon dioxide
• - The copper oxide left had 100 lbs of copper and 25 of oxygen
Experiment
• Decomposition of CuCO3 into Cu, C and O
• Proust found that the ratio of the masses of Cu to C to O was always the same no matter what size sample of CuCO3 he started with.
• He formed his theory by dividing to find the ratios

Example Set of Data
Significance
• Law of Definite Proportions• Copper carbonate must always be made
from the same fixed proportions of copper, carbon, and oxygen
• All compounds contain elements in certain definite proportions
• Ex) Nitric Oxide- 8:7 oxygen to nitrogen• Ex2) Water- 8:1 oxygen to hydrogen
Significance in the Scientific Community
• Initially not accepted by all chemists• ie) Claude-Louis Berthollet
argued that elements could combine in many different proportions (actually thinking of solutions/mixtures- Proust was thinking of compounds)
• Law of Definite Proportions was the basis for John Dalton’s atomic theory and multiple proportions

Significance in Scientific Community cont
Proust expanded upon Lavoisier’s Law of Conservation of Mass
Law of Conservation of Mass-mass of reactants was always equal to mass of products (matter cannot be created or destroyed)
Proust measured each individual substance instead of the total mass for reactants and products

John Dalton Early Life
• From Cumberland, England • Birth date is unknown • Family were Quakers• Worked in the fields and in
the family cloth shop• Relatively poor• Did not get formal education
– Did get basic lessons in reading, writing, and arithmetic
John Dalton Adult Life
• Dalton and his brother ran a school in Kendal
• Dalton recorded the weather patterns each day (for his entire life) in a journal
• Originally wanted to be a physician, decided on scientist instead
• Tutored students at Manchester University
Dalton’s Law of Multiple Proportions
If 2 elements formmultiple compounds,the ratios of themasses of the secondelement combiningwith a fixed mass ofthe first element willbe in ratios of smallwhole numbers
If 2 elements formmultiple compounds,the ratios of themasses of the secondelement combiningwith a fixed mass ofthe first element willbe in ratios of smallwhole numbers
Dalton’s Law of Multiple Proportions
For Example Elements Y and Z
The weight of Element Z, when combined with the fixed weight of element Y, will compute to a ratio of small integral numbers (2:1, 3:1, etc.)
OR
Carbon + Oxygen = CO, CO2, but not CO1.3
For Example Elements Y and Z
The weight of Element Z, when combined with the fixed weight of element Y, will compute to a ratio of small integral numbers (2:1, 3:1, etc.)
OR

Importance of Dalton’s Law of Multiple Proportions
• One of the fundamental laws of stoichiometry
• Basis for other Atomic Theories– Law of Conservation
of Mass– Law of Definite
Proportions
Dalton’s Modern Atomic Theory
• All matter is made of atoms• Atoms are invisible and
indestructible • All atoms of a given element
are identical in mass and properties
• Compounds are formed by a combinations of two or more different kinds of atoms
• A chemical reaction is a
rearrangement of atoms
The Discovery
• Dalton studied gases– Discovered the partial
pressures of gases • Lead to formulation of working
theory of the atom • *Noticed that certain gases
maintained the same ratios of mixture regardless of amount
• Realized that Ratios remain the same because they were consistent down to the smallest particle or atom
Significance of Dalton’s Atomic Theory
• First understanding of the atom– Prior to, it was an
abstract philosophical concept
• The essence of Dalton’s theory remains valid
• Led to great expansion of theoretical thought in chemistry

The Discovery
-A century ago discovered the electron while using a Cathode Ray Tube
-Cathode Ray Tube is a glass tube that has wiring attached to its two sides.
-The air is taken out and in order to try and form a vacuum.
-An electric charge goes from one end to the other and produces a glow that looks fluorescent.
-A cathode ray or electron gun is attached to the glass contraption
QuickTime™ and a decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
The Experiment
-Used his Cathode Ray Tube made a unique tube to probe that the rays shot in had a negative charge.
-Almost perfect vacuum and he put the fluorescent layer on a specific side.
- Had an electric plate, this gave a positive charged electrode to the negative cathode. The ray would be deflected.
-Shot a ray got deflected by the opposite positive charge. This showed that the ray was made up of charged, negatively particles.

The Experiment
• The atomizer produces fine oil droplets• Oil droplets fall through a hole in the first chamber as
a stream of tiny droplets• X-rays negatively charge the oil droplets• An applied voltage on two plates surrounding the oil
drops creates an electric field. The electric force pull some drop upward.
• The rate at which the oil droplets are falling and rising between the two charged plates is measured through the microscope.
The Experiment• Some oil droplets fell, and some did not• This depended on the forces acting upon it: electric force, gravitational
force, and air resistance• He found…• 1. When a large electric field is applied, but the electric force on the
droplet is larger, then the gravitation force acts in the opposite direction: it moves upward
• 2. Net force of a droplet=sum of the gravitational force, the air resistance, and electrical force
• V1=k(Eq-mq)
QuickTime™ and a decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
The Experiment
• In simpler terms…• When there was no voltage applied, the droplet would
fall down to the bottom• Voltage applied, droplets with negative charge drop
more slowly, stop altogether, or even go up (depending on the voltage given)
• Charges of the droplets were all multiples of the smallest value
• e-=1.6 x 10 to the -19 coulombs
Significance of Experiment
• Calculated charge of electron
• Showed that charge on electron was smallest possible amount of charge
• Total amount of electric charge must always be an integer multiple of this electric charge
QuickTime™ and a decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
Significance of Experiment
• Now that the charge of an electron is discovered, further advancements in science can be made on the atom
• An atom is the basic unit of an element• With the discovery of an electron, we can find
out more on the states of substances, elements, etc.
• Without him, chemistry would not have advanced much
Earnest Rutherford
As well as Marsden and Geiger and their gold foil experiment
QuickTime™ and a decompressor

Background Info
• Ernest Rutherford, 1st Baron Rutherford of Nelson was a British-New Zealand chemist and physicist. In his early work he discovered the concept of radioactive half and also differentiated and named alpha and beta radiation. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1908 "for his investigations into the disintegration of the elements, and the chemistry of radioactive substances”.
Before his Experiment
Before his experiment people though that the particles in an atom were randomly arranged according to the plum pudding model. See diagram below.
Hypothesis
Rutherford thought that if the plum pudding model was correct then a beam of alpha particles would go though matter with very little deflection. See diagram below.
ExperimentRutherford’s experiment consisted of a block of radium to
generate alpha particles, gold foil for the particles to pass trough and a florescent screen that he could use to determine where the alpha particles ended up. See diagram below.
Conclusions
The Gold Foil experiment showed that the plum pudding model of the atom was not accurate. This is because the experiment showed how there had to be a piece of the atom with a large mass in the center of the atom. The realization that things were not just loosely "hanging out" around an atom but instead are arranged in a specific way around a center led him to discover the Atomic Nucleus. See diagram below
More Conclusions
Without this discovery, much of what we know about atoms would not be possible. If not for the discovery of the nucleus, we could not know about the important parts that it consists of (protons and neutrons). Also, the periodic table of elements that we all know so well (from intense memorization for Chemistry tests), the elements would not be ordered the same way, because Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Also, we can also identify different atoms by mass number. This is the number of protons and neutrons added together in the nucleus. All these things, and many more, that are the basis of our knowledge of atoms would not be possible without the information from Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment.
James Chadwick Background Info
•Chadwick was born in Cheshire, England in 1891.•He went to Manchester University in 1908.•After college, he spent his time studying under Professor Rutherford.•Professor Rutherford created the first artificial nuclear transformation.•This is where he made studies on atomic nuclei.•In 1921, he became Assistant Director of Research of the Cavendish Laboratory.•In 1927, he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.
Background Info (con’t) In 1932, he discovered the
existence of neutrons. For this he was awarded the
Hughes Medal of the royal society.
He was later awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1935 for physics.
From 1943 to 1946, he worked in the United States on the Manhattan Project for the development of the atomic bomb.
He retired in England in 1948. He died in 1974.

Neutron Discovery
Rutherford discovered the proton in the nucleus Noticed it was not the only particle in the nucleus Atomic mass could not only be the mass of protons (e.g. Helium has an
atomic mass of 4, but the number of protons is 2 Chadwick went further in trying to discover the neutron, and kept on trying, even as he
failed. Walter Bothe and Herbert Becker did experiments with beryllium where it emitted radiation
to penetrate 200 mLs of lead. They thought this was high energy gamma rays, but Chadwick noticed it was something else
Without the clues and inspirations of Rutherford, Bothe, and Becker, Chadwick would not have been able to discover the neutron.
Neutron Discovery (Cont.) Two other scientists, Federic and Irlene Joliot-Curry, tracked particle radiation by putting
paraffin wax in front of the rays (thought to be gamma rays) coming from the beryllium. During this, they observed high-speed protons coming out the paraffin.
Chadwick recognized the rays from the beryllium were not gamma rays because they were too strong. He concluded that they were neutrons. He did his own experiments to back this up.
Since neutrons are neutral, they can penetrate thick layers of different substances because they are not disturbed by positive or negative charges.
Chadwick also discovered that the mass of a neutron is 1.0067

The Neutron Experiment
Significance By knowing about the neutron,
scientists could use atomic number and atomic mass because they were no longer extremely similar.
Also, knowing about neutrons was important in the creation of nuclear weapons and nuclear reactors.
In addition, the creation of plutonium-235 and uranium-235 is caused by their absorption of neutrons.
Significance (Cont.) At extremely high pressure and temperature, neutrons and electrons collapse
into neutronic matter, known as neutronium. This is what happens in neutron stars
Neutron capture results in neutron activation, which creates radioactivity Used to excited delayed and prompy gamma rays from elements in materials Neutron emitters can detect light in the nuclei, especially hydrogen found in
water molecules.

Niels Bohr
Born: Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1885
Died: Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1962 of
heart failure
A Doctor of Physics
Background Info.
• Awarded Nobel Prize for his work in the structure of atoms in 1922
• Worked under J.J. Thomson in Cambridge, and later with Ernest Rutherford in Manchester University, in the field of physics
The Bohr Model
• Developed model of atom in which electrons orbited the nucleus in certain energy levels. Called the Bohr Model.
• Conducted the Liquid Drop Experiment.
The Shell Model
• Developed Shell Model in which the outermost orbit of electrons determined the chemical properties of the element.
Niels Bohr
The fact that electrons can only absorb or emit energy in chunks, or quanta, laid the foundation for theorizing just how electrons are arranged in an atom. This and the explanation of another puzzling phenomena lead Niels Bohr to propose the first model of the atom that provided the first illustration the arrangement of electrons in an atom.
Line Spectra
Early in the century it was observed that samples of elements emit light when they are vaporized in an intense flame.
The light that is seen results from the atoms of the element absorbing the energy of the flame and releasing the absorbed energy in the form of light.
When this light is passed through a prism, a resulting line spectra of specific wavelengths results. This line spectra is unique for each element.

Notice that the color flame produced from the vaporization of sodium is yellow. If the yellow light is separated into its component wavelengths with a prism, the resulting spectrum is shown at left.
Niels Bohr Conn…
Bohr was the first to see the connection between the characteristic line spectra of each element and atomic structure.
Using Rutherford’s nuclear atom and Plank’s idea of quantization, Bohr created a model of the atom that explained line spectra.
His model of the atom still represents the simplified atom today.
The Bohr Model of the Atom
Bohr proposed that the electrons of an atom must be arranged in certain orbits that correspond to the amount of energy of that electron (these energies are represented by the letter “n” and increase as the distance from the nucleus increases.) Here, Hydrogen is represented, since on proton is present and one electron orbits the nucleus.

How does this Explain Line Spectra?When an electron absorbs a photon with high enough energy, it becomes excited and jumps to the energy level that corresponds to the new energy of the electron. When the electron releases the absorbed energy and returns to its original position, light is released. Because the energy levels of the electrons are quantized, only certain photons will allow the electron to absorb enough energy to jump to n=2, n=3 and so on. Therefore, only certain wavelengths will be released upon return to the original energy level.
Although Bohr’s model worked well for the hydrogen atom, it could not Although Bohr’s model worked well for the hydrogen atom, it could not explain spectra of elements with more than one electron.explain spectra of elements with more than one electron.

Significance of Bohr and Shell Model
• Shell Model is used as a basis for Chemistry, since Chemistry is about the RXNS and interactions between elements/chemicals
• The Bohr Model gave a more accurate model of an atom. The fact that electron movement was not applicable in classical mechanics caused the introduction of quantum mechanics into modern science.
Contributions, cont.• Helped develop the Atomic Bomb
(part of Manhattan Project/Atomic Energy Project)
• Began work in Theoretical Quantum Physics (Old Quantum Physics)
• Identified isotope of Uranium responsible for slow-neutron fission
Heisenberg realised that
• In the world of very small particles, one cannot measure any
property of a particle without interacting with it in some way
• This introduces an unavoidable uncertainty into the result
• One can never measure all the
properties exactly
