History of Chemistry
Democritus (5 th postulate Lucretius (1 the void” st Century BC) atomic Century AD) “atoms and Priestly (18 th oxygen Century AD) discovers Lavoisier (18 th ) diamond=carbon
Conservation of Mass and Chemical Proportions
Mass unchanged in chemical reactions Implies atoms conserved in reactions Elements combine in definite, simple proportions by mass.
Molecules are atoms in definite proportions!
- Dalton
John Dalton (1808)
Elements are collections of identical, miniscule atoms.
Different elements differ in their atoms.
Compounds are combinations of different elements.
Under reaction, compounds rearrange their atoms.
Subatomic Components
J.J. Thompson (1897) electrons” “cathode rays are (e – ) and finds e/m ratio Robert Millikan (1909) measures e and hence m electron known at 9.11
10 -31 kg E. Rutherford (1906) bounces (He 2+ ) off Au tissue proving protons (p + ) in nucleus F.A. Aston (1919) “weighs” atomic ions J. Chadwick (1939) observes neutrons (no charge) by decomposition (to p + , e – , and ).
Structure of the Atom
Nucleons (protons and neutrons) of almost the same mass (1.67
10 -27 kg) live in nucleus (R~2 fm).
Electrons occupy the full atomic radius (R~50 pm), shielding the nucleus.
Electron and proton count identical in neutral atom.
Symbology of an Atom
35 79 Br Z=35 is bromine’s atomic number (count of protons) A=79 is its mass number (count of all nucleons) So 35 79 Br has 79–35 or 44 neutrons 35 81 Br exist too in equal #s.
So isotope average A=80
Molecules and Ions
Atoms in molecules share (covalent) or steal (ionic) electrons to bond.
Stolen electrons lead to attraction of unlike charged ions (ionic bonding) Directional electron “clouds” lead to molecular shapes.
Molecules can be ionic as well as atoms.
Periodic Table
Z increases linearly from 1 H upper left Groups (columns) have similar chemistry Alkali metals , alkaline earths , transition metals , halogens and noble gases
Naming Compounds
IONIC Cation named first.
If atom 1 makes only one cation: Strontium chlor SrCl 2 ide If atom 1 makes several cations: Iron(III) chloride FeCl 3 COVALENT Less electronegative element named first Most electronegative gets “anionic” – ide Greek prefixes show proportions: Di chlorine hept oxide Cl 2 O 7 Mono prefix is never used for first atom.
Polyatomic Ions
Few polyatomic cations Most common: ammonium (NH 4 ) + Many polyatomic anions NO 3 – hydrogen sulf phosph ClO – chlor nitr ate , C ate , H 2 PO 4 – ate , Cr 2 O 7 2– hypo chlor ite , ClO 2 – ate , ClO 4 – 2 O 4 2– oxal ate , HSO 4 – per chlor ate dihydrogen dichrom ate chlor ite , ClO 3 –
Naming Exercise
