Can people think that theories are
correct even when they are not?
How does this happen?
Do you think that the earth could
be hollow? Why or why not?

Today’s Objectives
SWBAT describe the evolution of
atomic theory from 1898 to 1932.
SWBAT to locate and describe
protons, neutrons, and electrons in
the modern atom.
SWBAT do atomic math!
Numero Cinco! - R. A. Millikan
Experiment: Millikan
Oil Drop Experiment
When: 1909
Where: U.S.A!!!!
Millikan’s Oil Drop Experiment
Millikan’s Calculations – Whoa!
What were Millikan’s conclusions?
I have most
accurately
measured the
charge of an
electron:
-1.59 x 10-19
Coulombs
What were Millikan’s conclusions?
I have also most
accurately
measured the
mass of an
electron:
9.109 x 10-31kg
Numero Seis! - Ernest Rutherford
Experiment: Gold
Foil Experiment
When: 1910
Where: Montreal
Gold Foil Experiment Explained
Alpha helium particles were shot through a
piece of gold foil
Think aluminum foil but thinner and made
out of gold!
Alpha helium particles are 8000 times more
massive (bigger) than electrons, so
Rutherford thought they would knock electrons
out of the way, but they did not!

Remember! This is the current model of
the atom (Thanks to Thomson)

What were Rutherford’s conclusions?
Pretend you are Rutherford
As Rutherford, what conclusion
would you make based on the
data from the Gold Foil
Experiment?
Hint: Positive repels
positive, negative
repels negative

What were Rutherford’s conclusions?
•Discovered the nucleus, a
concentrated mass with
positive protons!
•Nucleus is in the center of
the atom
•The atom is mostly empty
space
Relative Size of an Electron to the Atom
What’s this empty space idea?
The atom is mostly empty
space!
The nucleus is TINY
compared to the size of
the entire atom!
James Chadwick
Experiment:
Beryllium Foil
Experiment
When: 1932
Where: Cambridge
(England)
What were Chadwick’s conclusions?
Neutral radiation
emitted; therefore, the
nucleus contains another
subatomic particle
called the neutron (has
a neutral charge)
PROTON

Subatomic Particles
Key Point #1: The three main
subatomic particles are…
Protons
Neutrons
Electrons
PROTONS
(purple = positive)
Location: nucleus
-27
Mass: 1.6726 x 10
kg
Charge: 1+
NEUTRONS
(no color = no charge)
Location: nucleus
-27
Mass: 1.6749 x 10
kg
Charge: neutral
ELECTRONS
(in the red = negative)
Location: outside nucleus
-31 kg
Mass: 9.1094 x 10
Charge: 1
The mass of 1,839 ELECTRONS = the
mass of 1 NEUTRON!
Electrons virtually have NO MASS!

Atomic Math!
Key Point #2: Atomic math
helps us to find…
Number
of protons
Number of neutrons
Number of electrons
This helps us
distinguish
atoms from
each other!
