The Atomic Structure.

What is inside atoms?

The Atomic Structure

Thomson (1897) proved that the fundamental particles in all atoms are called electrons.

The Atomic Structure.

Rutherford (1920) discovered positively charged particels called Protons.

The Atomic Structure.

Chadwick (1932) discovered particles with no electric charge called neutrons.

The Atomic Structure.

All atoms contain: electrons.

The Atomic Structure.

All atoms contain: protons.

The Atomic Structure.

All atoms contain: and neutrons.

The Atomic Structure.

except the ordinary hydrogen atom which contains no neutrons.

The atomic structure

Particle name Mass (kg) Relative masses

electron 9.109x10-31 0.000549

proton 1.672x 10-27 1.007275

neutron 1.674x10-27 1.008665

The nucleus

An atom consists of electrons moving around a nucleus in the centre of the atom.

The nucleus

The nucleus of ordinary hydrogen is a proton.

The nucleus

The nuclei of other atoms consist of protons and neutrons

The nucleus

The number of protons Z varies from 1 to 92

The nucleus

Many elements with more than 93 protons have been made artificially and they are all radioactive

The nucleus

Neutron number N = number of neutrons in

the nucleus of an atom.

The nucleus

Nucleon number = total number of protons

or mass number +neutrons in a nucleus

The nucleus

Mass number A= Proton number Z +

neutron number N

The nucleus

Protons have positive charge.

The nucleus

Neutrons have no charge.

The nucleus

Electrons have negative charge.

Elecctrons in an atom

Elecctrons move in orbits, orbitals or energy levels around the nucleus

Elecctrons in an atom

In a neutral atom Number of protons = number of electrons

Elecctrons in an atom

The arrangement of electrons in orbitals of an atom is called electronic configuration.

Elecctrons in an atom

The chemical properties of an atom of an element depends on the electronic configuration of on atom.

Elecctrons in an atom

The first shell is the duplet shell and can accomodate up to a maximum of 2 electrons.

Elecctrons in an atom

The second shell is called octet can accomodate up to maximum of 8 electrons.
