ATOM
Protons = positively charged particles
Neutrons = neutrally charged particles
NUCLEUS
Electrons= negatively charged particles
ATOMIC NUMBER :
number of protons in an atom hence number of positive charges.
It also determines what element the atom is.
ATOMIC MASS: protons plus neutrons. These
compose the bulk of the mass of the atom. To find
how many neutrons are in any atom, subtract the
atomic number (protons) from the atomic mass.
Atomic Mass – Atomic Number = Number of neutrons
Electron number = Proton Number
in a neutrally charged atom.
n. An atom or a group of atoms
that has acquired a net electric
charge by gaining or losing one
or more electrons.
Bohr Theory states that electrons orbit the
nucleus in layers called “shells.” The
electrons in the outermost shell react with
other atoms to create chemical bonds.
Electron shells are like
spaces in a unique PARKING
GARAGE. Lower levels must
be filled with cars (electrons)
before the next level can be
occupied.
Example:If the nucleus were
the size of a basketball the
nearest electron shell would
be about 8 miles away. The
number of neutrons and
protons in the nucleus of any
atom determines the atoms
chemical and physical
characteristics.
What does this tell you about
the composition of any atom?
Parking Level
1= 2 spaces
Parking Level 2
= 8 spaces
Parking Level 3
= 8 spaces
The number of parking levels and
Electron
spaces can
be determined by the
number ofMobile
electrons the atom has.
Example: H has+11 electron in the
first shell.
Open Parking Space
Ca has 2 in the first shell, eight
in
the second shell, eight in the third
shell, and two in the fourth shell.
The Octet Rule states that all
elements try to fill in their outer
electron shell until they have eight
electrons (When a chemical has 8
electrons in its outer shell, it is then
stable; the Noble Gases are excellent
examples)

It may not be
But let’s park some cars (electrons)
in the following elements:
B, O, Fe, Al, K, N, C
Sometimes atoms gain or lose
electrons in the outermost shell
creating an atom with a positive
or negative charge.

The Pain, the Pain!
To understand the affects chlorine gas has on
the body, we need to first understand the
chemical properties of chlorine. Particularly its
valence, or number of chemical bonds chlorine
can form. Chlorine is in the 7th group of the A
type elements (A type elements are all those
except for the Transition Metals, the columns
between the column headed by lithium and the
column headed by boron on the periodic table.).
This means that it has 7 electrons in its outer
electron (or valence) shell.
So, as it is so close to having 8
electrons in it's outer shell, it literally
rips other atoms apart to get them.
This is what happens to your
respiratory system when you inhale
chlorine gas. The gas literally rips
apart your nasal passages, trachea,
and lungs, by taking electrons out of
the atoms that make up your cells.
Obviously, chlorine gas causes a
very painful death.
Ions in solution make something acidic or basic.

H ions indicate an acid solution such as HCl.
Polyatomic ions such as (OH) hydroxide indicates a base.
Any ion
with a positive charge such as H.

Any ion with a
negative charge
such as Chlorine.
Most ionic compounds have two word
names. The first word is the name of
the “cation” and the second word is the
name of the “anion.”
The best way to go about naming ionic compounds is to
take a look at the formula, use your periodic table and
figure out the names of the cation and the anion.
Example: NaCl or BaCl2 or H2SO4
If the anion has only one atom in it, then the name of
the anion is taken off and “-ide” is added to the end.
Thus oxygen becomes “oxide” and sulfur become
“sulfide.”
If the anion is polyatomic, look up the name on the
back of the periodic table. These have to be
memorized.
-SO4
-PO4
-NO3
• All ionic compounds form
crystals. No exceptions.
Salts like to form crystals because when you have
a bunch of little electrical positive and negative
charges all stuck together, they like to bunch into
little stacking groups called “unit cells.”
• Ionic compounds tend to have
high melting and boiling points.
And I mean very, very high. Try melting a
block of salt with a torch and you will know
what I mean.
•Ionic compounds are very
HARD & BRITTLE.
They simply don’t want to bend so they break.
•Ionic compounds conduct
electricity when they dissolve
in water.
If we take salt and dissolve it in water, the polar
nature of the water molecules pull the positive
and negative ions apart from each other.
A compound in which atoms that are bonded SHARE
electrons rather than TRANSFER electrons from one
atom to another.
1. Have generally much lower melting and boiling
points than ionic compounds
Covalent bonded molecules do not interact with
each other in the same way ionic compounds do,
therefore they are easier to pull apart.
2. Covalent compounds are soft and squishy compared
to ionic compounds.
Covalent compounds are frequently flexible.
3. Covalent compounds tend to be more
flammable than ionic compounds.
Things burn because they have carbon
atoms and hydrogen atoms that create
combustion reactions. Carbon and
hydrogen are found in covalent
compounds.
4. Covalent compounds don’t conduct electricity in
water.
5. Covalent compounds aren’t usually very soluble
in water.

All covalent compounds have two
word names. The first word
corresponds to the first element and
the second corresponds to the
second element similar to ionic
compound naming. “ide” is used as
the suffix.
If there are more than one atom in a
molecule, prefixes need to be added.
