Chapter Objectives


Define the terms atom, molecule, isotope,
ion and functional group in your own
words.
Describe the nuclear model for the atom
and identify the numbers of protons,
electrons, and neutrons in a particular
isotope from its chemical symbol.
Chapter Objectives



Calculate the atomic mass of an element
from the masses and abundances of its
isotopes.
Determine the number of atoms in a
molecule from its chemical formula.
Describe the arrangement of elements in
the periodic table and explain the
usefulness of the table.
Chapter Objectives


Understand the basic differences between
organic and inorganic chemistry.
Use standard chemical nomenclature to
deduce the names of simple inorganic
compounds from their formulas or vice
versa.
Review

What is an element?

What is an atom?

Atomic Structure of Matter

Matter is composed of:

Parts of the Atom:


Mass spectrometers can measure the
mass of atoms and isotopes.
Isotopes

Mass spectrum for carbon isotopes.
Atomic Symbols


We use atomic symbols to represent
atoms of the different elements.
Usually one or two letters


If two letters, Capital followed by lowercase

Periodic Table of the Elements


1869 – Dmitri Mendeleev
Found that when elements were arranged
in order of atomic weight, they could be
placed in horizontal rows, one row under
the other, so that the elements in vertical
columns have similar properties!
Periodic Table of the Elements
Periods



Referred to by numerical designations
Top row is period 1, etc.
The two rows that normally appear separately at
the bottom of the chart actually belong within the
body of the chart in periods 6 and 7.
Groups


Each group is identified by a numerical
designation. Over the years, two different
numbering systems have been developed.
Group (Family) Names
Periodic Table of the Elements

Do you see the heavy staircase in the
periodic table?
Ions



Ions:
What is the charge on an electron?
So what happens to the net charge if you
take one electron away? Add one on?
Ionic Substances

Two possibilities for formation of ions:
1.
Add an electron
2.
Lose an electron
Ions


Two fundamental ideas about electric
charge.

Ionic Bonding


Chemical formula:
Convey relative proportions of atoms of
the different elements in the substance.
