Exploring the Black Box
Imagine you’ve received a present that you are not allowed to open. You REALLY want to know what’s inside!
What might you do to figure out the contents?
![Page 3: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Exploring the Black Box
In your group, try to figure out the contents and internal structure your present WITHOUT opening it
Note: Do NOT shake the box too violently as the contents may fall out!
As a group, be sure to answer the questions on the hand-out!

So What is a Black Box?
A black box refers to any system that has inner workings that cannot be directly observed because it is not possible or feasible
Can you think of any other black box examples?

The Black Box and Science
An atom is an example of a black box

The Atomic Model and the Nature of Science
When scientists wanted to determine the structure of an atom, they were not able to actually see inside of the atom
They had to rely on empirical evidence, indirect evidence, observation, and inference when developing their ideas-just as you did when determining the contents of your present!
![Page 7: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Atomic Model and the Nature of Science
Scientists then developed a model to express their new ideas
The understanding of the structure of the atom has changed many times over the course of centuries
As new evidence emerged, the ideas of the atomic model changed
Lecturing about the scientists of the atomic model isn’t quite as fun and interesting as understanding:
HOW was the atomic model developed?WHY has the atomic model changed over the years?

The “What” of the Atomic ModelA Brief History
![Page 9: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
DemocritusThis is the Greek philosopher Democritus who began the search for a description of matter more than 2400 years ago
He asked: Could matter be divided into smaller and smaller pieces forever, or was there a limit to the number of times a piece of matter could be divided?
400 BC
![Page 10: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Atomos
His theory: Matter could not be divided into smaller and smaller pieces forever, eventually the smallest possible piece would be obtained
This piece would be indivisible
He named the smallest piece of matter “atomos,” meaning “not to be cut”
![Page 11: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Atomos To Democritus,
atoms were small, hard particles that were all made of the same material but were different shapes and sizes
Atoms were infinite in number, always moving and capable of joining together
![Page 12: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Democritus vs. The Philosophers
The eminent philosophers of the time, Aristotle and Plato, had a more respected, (and ultimately wrong) theory
Aristotle and Plato favored the earth, fire, air and water approach to the nature of matter
Their ideas held sway because of their eminence as philosophers
The atomos idea was buried for approximately 2000 years

Then Along Came Dalton’s Model
In the early 1800s, the English chemist John Dalton performed a number of experiments that eventually led to the acceptance of the idea of atoms

Dalton’s Atomic ModelAll elements are composed of atoms
Atoms are invisible and indestructible particles

Dalton’s Atomic Model Continued
Atoms of the same element are exactly alike

Dalton’s Atomic Model Continued
Atoms of different elements are different

Dalton’s Atomic Model Continued
Compounds are formed by the joining of atoms of two or more elements

Dalton’s Atomic Model
This theory became one of the foundations of modern chemistry
BUT it needed work
![Page 19: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Thomson’s Plum Pudding Model
In 1897, the work of an English scientist J. J. Thompson provided the first hint that atoms were made up of even smaller particles
![Page 20: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Thomson Model
Thomson studied the passage of an electric current through a gas
As the current passed through the gas, it gave off rays of negatively charged particles
![Page 21: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Thomson Model
This surprised Thomson, because the atoms of the gas were uncharged
Where had the negative charges come from?
Where did they come from?
![Page 22: Introduction to the Atomic Model Advanced Chemistry Ms. Grobsky](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032707/56649e405503460f94b31a70/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Thomson concluded that the negative charges came from within the atom
• A particle smaller than an atom had to exist
• The atom was divisible!
• Thomson called the negatively charged “corpuscles,” today known as electrons
• Since the gas was known to be neutral, having no charge, he reasoned that there must be positively charged particles in the atom
• But he could never find them

And...Thomson thought the positive (+) and negative (-) particles were s p r e a d o u t in atoms like:
p p u l d u d m i s n
(plums in puddin’)

And Then There was Rutherford…
In 1908, the English physicist Ernest Rutherford was hard at work on an experiment that seemed to have little to do with unraveling the mysteries of the atomic structure
You will explore the methods performed in Ernest Rutherford’s experiments and help “develop” a model for an unseen object!
