Atomic Theory: Late 19th Century
Atomic theory—everything is made of atoms—generally accepted
(thanks to Ludwig Boltzman, and others).
Mendeleev/periodic table—accepted, but the basis for periodic behavior
not understood
What are atoms made of?
How are they held together?

Electrical behavior: “+” attracts “-” but like charges repel

than β
Atoms must contain smaller sub-units.
Alpha particle  2 n0 + 2p+
Beta particel  electron (e-)
Gamma photon

•Thomson
(1897) discovered the e-:
“Cathode rays”
– high voltage +
fluorescent
screen
cathode ray
• Travel from cathode (-) to anode (+).
• Negative charge (e−).
• Emitted by cathode metal atoms.
Electric and magnetic fields deflect the beam.
• Gives mass/charge of e- = −5.60 x 10-9 g/C
• Coulomb (C) = SI unit of charge

•
Millikan (1911) studied electrically-charged oil drops.
9
Charge on each droplet was:
n (−1.60 x 10-19 C) with n = 1, 2, 3,…
n (e- charge)
Modern value = −1.60217653 x 10-19 C.
= −1 “atomic units”.
•These
experiments give: me = charge x
= (-1.60 x 10-19 C)(-5.60 x 10-9 g/C)
mass
charge
= 8.96 x 10-28 g
Modern value = 9.1093826 x 10-28 g

•
Atoms gain a positive charge when e- are lost.
Implies a positive fundamental particle.
Hydrogen ions had the lowest mass.
• Hydrogen nuclei assumed to have “unit mass”
• Called protons.
Modern science: mp = 1.67262129 x 10-24 g
mp ≈ 1800 x me.
Charge = -1 x (e- charge).
= +1.602176462 x 10-19 C = +1 atomic units
11

How were p+ and e- arranged?
Thompson:
• Ball of uniform positive charge, with small negative
dots (e-) stuck in it.
• The “plum-pudding” model.
1910 Rutherford (former Thompson graduate
student) fired α-particles at thin metal
foils.
Expected them to pass through with minor
deflections.
12
Rutherford Scattering Experiment
13
Different Models of the Atom: different scattering results
α particles
“Plum pudding model”
•+ and – charges evenly distrubted
•low, uniform density of matter
•No back scattering
Rutherford’s explanation of results:
α particles
Small regions of very high density
+ charge in the dense regions
- Charges in region around it
From wikipedia
14
Some Large Deflections were osbserved
α particles
Rutherford
“It was about as credible as if you had fired a 15-inch shell
at a piece of paper and it came back and hit you.”
15
Most of the mass and all “+” charge is
concentrated in a small core, the nucleus.
≈10,000 times smaller diameter than the entire atom.
e- occupy the remaining space.

•Atomic
mass > mass of all p+ and e- in an atom.
•Rutherford proposed a neutral particle.
Chadwick (1932) fired -particles at Be atoms.
Neutral particles, neutrons, were ejected:
mn ≈ mp (0.1% larger).
mn = 1.67492728 x 10-24 g.
Present in all atoms (except ‘normal’ H).

Nucleus
• Contains p+ and n0
• Most of the atomic mass.
• Small (~10,000x smaller diameter than the atom).
• Positive (each p+ has +1 charge).
Electrons
• Small light particles surrounding the nucleus.
• Occupy most of the volume.
• Charge = -1.
Atoms are neutral. Number of e− = Number of p+
23
A neutron can decay into a proton and electron:
n0  p+ + eThis can cause decay of a radioactive element, e.g.,
# of p+ + n0

Isotopes and Moles (more on this later) and isotope abundance:
1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 of anything!
1 mole of atoms = 6.02 x 1023 atoms
Molar Mass (in grams) = average atomic mass (in amu)
1 mole of H atoms = 1.008 gr.
Why not 1.000 gr??  most atoms are 1H, but some are 2H (deuterium)
30
Average atomic mass of H = 1.008 amu
100 atoms have a mass of 100.8 amu
# of 2H atoms = n
# of 1H atoms = 100 –n (assume these are the only two isotopes that matter)
Mass of 100 atoms = n x 2.000 +(100-n) x 1.000 = 100.8 amu
2n + 100-n = 100.8
n = 0.8 So, out of every 100 atoms , have 0.8 2H atoms
Out of every 1000 atoms, have 8 2H atoms
Natural abundance of “heavy hydrogen (deuterium) is then 0.8%
31
Most
elements occur as a mixture of isotopes.

For
most elements, the percent abundance of its
isotopes are constant (everywhere on earth).
The
periodic table lists an average atomic weight.
Example
Boron occurs as a mixture of 2 isotopes, 10B and 11B.
The abundance of 10B is 19.91%. Calculate the
atomic weight of boron.
33
Boron occurs as a mixture of 2 isotopes, 10B and 11B. The abundance of 10B is
19.91%. Calculate the atomic weight of boron.
Atomic mass = Σ(fractional abundance)(isotope mass)
10B
19.91 (10.0129 amu) = 1.994 amu
100
% abundance of 11B = 100% - 19.91% = 80.09%
11B
80.09 (11.0093 amu) = 8.817 amu
100
Atomic weight for B = 1.994 + 8.817 amu
= 10.811 amu

A
counting unit – a familiar counting unit is a “dozen”:
1 dozen eggs
= 12 eggs
1 dozen donuts = 12 donuts
1 dozen apples = 12 apples
1 mole (mol) = Number of atoms in 12 g of 12C
• Latin for “heap” or “pile”
• 1 mol = 6.02214199 x 1023 “units”
• Avogadro’s number

peas/foot.
(48)3 / ft3 ≈ 1 x 105 peas/ft3.
V of 1 mol ≈ (6.0 x 1023 peas)/(1x 105 peas/ft3)
≈ 6.0 x 1018 ft3
U.S. surface area = 3.0 x 106 mi2
= 8.4 x 1013 ft2
height = V / area, 1 mol would cover the U.S. to:
6.0 x 1018 ft3
8.4 x 1013 ft2
=7.1 x 104 ft = 14 miles !
37
1
mole of an atom = atomic weight in grams.
1 Xe atom has mass = 131.29 amu
1 mol of Xe atoms has mass = 131.29 g
1 He atom has mass = 4.0026 amu
1 mol of He has mass = 4.0026 g
There are 6.022 x 1023 atoms in 1 mol of He and 1
mol of Xe – but they have different masses.
… 1 dozen eggs is much heavier than 1 dozen peas!
38
Example
How many moles of copper are in a 320.0 g sample?
Cu-atom mass = 63.546 g/mol (periodic table)
Conversion factor: 1 mol Cu = 1
63.546 g
1 mol Cu
nCu = 320.0 g x
= 5.036 mol Cu
63.546 g
n = number of moles
39
Calculate
the number of atoms in a 1.000 g
sample of boron.
nB = (1.000 g) 1 mol B
10.81 g
= 0.092507 mol B
B atoms = (0.092507 mol B)(6.022  1023 atoms/mol)
= 5.571  1022 B atoms

Dimensional Analysis and Problem Solving
Special Homework Problem: Due Tues. Recitation
Density = mass/volume
Problem:
Assume that a hydrogen atom has a spherical diameter of 1 angstrom
Assume that the nucleus (1 proton) has a diameter of 10-4 angstrom
1. Calculate the densities of the nucleus, and of the electron charge
cloud in kg/m3
2. Calculate the ratio of the two densities: R = dnucleus/delectron cloud
Mass of proton = 1.67 x 10-27 kg
Mass of electron = 9 x 10-31 kg
