4.1 Defining the Atom
What is an atom?
How can we define, study, and believe in something we can’t see?

• An Atom is the smallest particle of an element that retains its identity in a chemical reaction.
We will study the atom by looking at the evolution of the understanding of the atom. Noting both the accurate and inaccurate ideas are both important.
This is Key

Democritus’s Atomic Theory (460 B.C. -370 B.C.)
Atoms are indivisible and indestructible

Dalton’s Atomic Theory
• 1. All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms.
• 2. Atoms of the same element are identical. Atoms of one element are different from those of all other elements.

Dalton’s Atomic Theory
• 3. Atoms of different elements can physically mix or chemically combine in simple whole number ratios to form compounds
• 4. Chemical reactions occur when atoms are separated, joined, or rearranged. However, Atoms of one element can not be changed into an atom of another element.

Sizing up the Atom
How small are we talking about?
Let’s consider this copper (Cu) penny. How many atoms line up end to end in 1 cm?
![Page 8: Chapter 4 – Atomic Structure 4. 1-2. 4.1 Defining the Atom What is an atom? How can we define, study, and believe in something we can’t see?](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56649f275503460f94c3e736/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sizing up the Atom
100,000,000 copper atoms lined up end to end is about 1 cm.
There are 2.4 x 1022 Cu atoms in a single penny
There are 6 x 109 people on the planet Earth

Electrons
Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles.

The Atomic Nucleus
• The nucleus is a relatively tiny core of the atom– Contains Protons and Neutrons– Makes up most of the mass and density of the
atom
This means that most of the volume is occupied by the electrons
