General features of the atom today.
•The atom is an electrically neutral, spherical entity composed of a positively
charged central nucleus surrounded by one or more negatively charged
electrons.
•The atomic nucleus consists of protons and neutrons.

Z
The Symbol of the Atom or Isotope
X = Atomic symbol of the element
A = mass number; A = Z + N
Z = atomic number
(the number of protons in the nucleus)
N = number of neutrons in the nucleus
Isotope = atoms of an element with the same
number of protons, but a different number
of neutrons
Sample Problem 2.2

Calculating the Atomic Mass of an Element
Definition: amu or Da (atomic mass unit or Dalton) = 1/12 mass of 12C atom.
PROBLEM: Silver(Ag: Z = 47) has 46 known isotopes, but only two occur
naturally, 107Ag and 109Ag. Given the following mass
spectrometric data, calculate the atomic mass of Ag:

The Modern Reassessment of the Atomic Theory
1. All matter is composed of atoms. The atom is the smallest body that
retains the unique identity of the element.
2. Atoms of one element cannot be converted into atoms of another
element in a chemical reaction. Elements can only be converted
into other elements in nuclear reactions.
3. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons and
electrons, which determines the chemical behavior of the element.
Isotopes of an element differ in the number of neutrons, and thus
in mass number. A sample of the element is treated as though its
atoms have an average mass.
4. Compounds are formed by the chemical combination of two or more
elements in specific ratios.

b) No, I do not think they have similar chemical properties.
c) I can not tell from the periodic table whether they have similar
chemical properties.
d) This is a stupid question.

Bonding – ionic compounds
Formed from – the transfer of electrons from the atoms
of one element to those of another
Ions – charged particles
Cation – positively charged ion
Anion – negatively charged ion

Predicting the Ion and Element Forms
PROBLEM: What monatomic ions do the following elements form?
(a) Sulfur
(b) Rubidium
(c) Barium

Covalent bonds form when elements share electrons, which usually
occurs between nonmetals.
Elements that occur as molecules.
