Composition of Matter
All matter is composed of Atoms
Protons
Found in the nucleus
of atom
positive (+) charge
Mass Value 1
Neutrons
found in nucleus of
atom
neutral (no) charge
Mass value 1
Electrons
found in clouds
orbiting around
nucleus
negative (-) charge
Mass value 0
Periodic Table of Elements
Each element is made up of same atoms
1
H
Hydrogen
1.0079
Atomic Number = Number of Protons
(# P = # of electrons)
Symbol – 1st letter always CAPITAL
2nd letter always lower cased
Name
Atomic Mass = Number of Protons
+ Number of Neutrons
Number of Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Atomic Number
Number of electrons must equal the number protons
or the atom will be charged (+ or -) = Ion
Atomic Models
Most often represented as series of circles
Center circle represents
the nucleus - containing the
protons (P+)and neutrons (N)
Outer circles represent
the electron clouds where
electrons (e-) orbit
Bohr’s Model
Each valence (orbit) has a
specific number of electrons
it can hold
ee6P
1st holds up to 2 e-
e-
6N
2nd holds up to 8 e 3rd holds up to 8 e 4th holds up to 18 e-
eeCarbon atom

Must remember that:
Bohr’s Models are
simple 2D models
Atoms are actually 3D
Electrons actually
move around nucleus
in an electron cloud not
a linear orbit
Atoms are active –
drawings are
stationary
Lewis Dot Model
Uses dots to show Valance electrons –
outermost orbit
Valence Electrons are the ones that make
the atom interactive
Arranged in pairs on 4 sides of symbol –
Shows “empty seats”
N
Why do Atoms React?
They want to fill their “empty seats” on
valence orbit
Nitrogen has 3 “empty seats”
Can add or lose electrons IONic bond
Can share electrons Covalent

Types of Bonds
Ionic Bonds
Atoms may gain or
lose electrons to fill
its valence shell
This creates an
imbalance of + and –
creating a charged
atom or ION
Opposites attract
Ex Na+Cl-
Covalent Bonds
Atoms may share
electrons to fill
valence shell
ex. H2O
Hydrogen Bonds
Occur between H
(only have 1 electron)
weak bond
Ex surface tension
between H2O molecules
Why is Carbon so Important?
• Carbon has 6 protons;
therefore has 6 electrons
• This leaves 4 empty seats
for Carbon to fill
• Carbon will bond with
LOTS of things BUT likes
to bind with other C
atoms.
• This creates the rings and
chains of all the organic
compounds
Molecules and Compounds
MOLECULE – 2 definitions
1)
2 or more atoms of the same element
joined together
2)
O2; H2; O3
Smallest unit of a compound that has the
properties of that compound
COMPOUND
2 or more different elements chemically
combined
H2O; CO2; C6H12O6
Polarity of Water
Water (H2O) is made up of 2 H and 1 O sharing
their electrons (covalent bond)
There is a higher concentration of electrons on
the Oxygen end making it slightly negative
and the Hydrogen end slightly positive
Lipids are insoluble in water
Because they are
• Not polar
• Have no ionic
bonds
Therefore, they are
NOT attracted to
water
pH
The concentration of H+ in a solution
measures the acidity or basicity of the solution
H2O will break apart creating hydrogen ions
(H+ ) and hydronium ions (OH-)
More H+ = acid (< 7)
More OH- = basic (alkaline) (>7)
Equal amounts H+ & OH- = Neutral (pH7)
States of Matter:
Matter on Earth can be found in three states:
SOLIDS – molecules are barely moving;
(ice cube)
Little
energy
Definite volume
Definite Shape
States of Matter
LIQUIDS - molecules moving fairly freely
(water)
More
energy
Definite volume
No definite shape
States of Matter
GASES – molecules are moving rapidly
(steam)
Lots
of energy
No definite volume
No definite shape
