Atoms: the Building Blocks of
Matter

The parts that make up an atom are called subatomic
particles.
1) Protons (p+) positively charged particle
2) Neutron (no) neutral particle (uncharged)
3) Electrons (e-) negatively charged particle
 Neutrons and Protons are
located in the nucleus of
an atom.
 Electrons orbit around
the nucleus.
Q- How are atoms of different elements distinguished from
one another? In other words, how do we distinguish a
helium atom from a carbon atom?
A- Their number of protons, indicated by the atomic number
Let’s look at helium, He.
It has an atomic number of 2,
which means that is has 2
protons in it’s nucleus.
Atomic Structure
Here are the basics; you need to know these.

Atomic Mass

Atomic Number (Z): the number of protons (p+)
Atomic Mass: the number of protons (p+) + the number of neutrons (n0)
▪ measured in atomic mass units (amu) which is one twelfth
the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
▪ the mass of electrons (1/1860 p+) is negligible.
Number of Neutrons: the atomic mass - the atomic number

The Famous Gold Foil Experiment
This showed us that the atom is made of mostly
empty space.
Isotopes
Atoms of the same element with different
number of neutrons
Because they have the same number of protons, all
isotopes of an element have the same chemical
properties.
Mass Numbers of Hydrogen Isotopes
What would the masses be?
The Mole: A
Measurement of
Matter
At the end of this section, you should
be able to:
Describe
how Avogadro’s number is
related to a mole of any substance
Calculate the mass of a mole of
any substance
The Mole
(aka Avagadro’s
Number):
6.02 x

The Mole and Avogadro’s Number
SI unit that measures the amount of substance
 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 representative particles
 Representative particles are usually atoms,
molecules, or formula units (ions)

But Why the Mole?
Just as 12 = 1 dozen, or 63,360 inches = 1 mile,
the mole allows us to count microscopic items
(atoms, ion, molecules) on a macroscopic scale.
So, 1 mole of any substance is a set number of
Items, namely: 6.02 x 1023.

Volume of a Mole of Gas
Varies with a change in temperature or a
change in pressure
 At STP, 1 mole of any gas occupies a
volume of 22.4 L
 Standard temperature is 0°C
 Standard pressure is 101.3 kPa
(kilopascals), or 1 atmosphere (atm)
 22.4 L is known as the molar volume


22.4 L of any gas at STP contains 6.02 x
1023 representative particles of that gas

One mole of a gaseous element and one
mole of a gaseous compound both
occupy a volume of 22.4 L at STP
(Masses may differ)

What is the percent composition
of this compound?
1. Calculate the total mass
2. Divide each given by the total mass
and then multiply by 100%
3. Check your answer: The
percentages should total 100%
Answer
The total mass is 8.20 g + 5.40 g = 13.60
g
 Divide 8.2 g by 13.6 g and then multiply
by 100% = 60.29412 = 60.3%
 Divide 5.4 g by 13.6 g and then multiply

Calculating Empirical Formulas
Microscopic – atoms
 Macroscopic – moles of atoms
 Lowest whole-number ratio may not be
the same as the compound formula
Example: The empirical formula of
hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is HO

Empirical Formulas
The first step is to find the mole-to-mole
ratio of the elements in the compound
 If the numbers are both whole numbers,
these will be the subscripts of the elements
in the formula
 If the whole numbers are identical,
substitute the number 1
Example: C2H2 and C8H8 have an empirical
formula of CH
 If either or both numbers are not whole
numbers, numbers in the ratio must be
multiplied by the same number to yield
whole number subscripts

What is the empirical
formula of a compound that
is 25.9% nitrogen and
74.1% oxygen?
1. Assume 100 g of the compound, so that
there are 25.9 g N and 74.1 g O
 2. Convert to mole-to-mole ratio:
Divide each by mass of one mole
25.9 g divided by 14.0 g = 1.85 mol N
74.1 g divided by 16.0 g = 4.63 mol O
 3. Divide both molar quantities by the
smaller number of moles

4. 1.85/1.85 = 1 mol N
4.63/1.85 = 2.5 mol O
 5. Multiply by a number that
converts each to a whole number (In
this case, the number is 2 because 2
x 2.5 = 5, which is the smallest whole
number )
 2 x 1 mol N = 2
 2 x 2.5 mol O = 5
 Answer: The empirical formula is
N2O5
