C1-Atomic structure And The Periodic Table Flashcards
(29 cards)
Who made the Plum Pudding Model?
JJ Thomson
What did JJ Thomson discover?
Electrons
What experiment did Rutherford do?
Fired alpha particles at gold foil(can be squashed to one cell thick)
What model did Rutherford propose?
Nuclear model
What model did Niels Bohr propose?
Energy level model
In Bohr’s model of the atom where are the electrons?
In shells around the nucleus
Who discovered the neutrons?
James Chadwick
What does the mass number tell you?
Number of protons+Number of neutrons
The number of protons is the same as…
The number of electrons
What is the mass and charge of a proton?
Mass=1
Charge=+1
What is the mass and charge of a neutron?
Mass=1
Charge=0
What is the mass and charge of an electron?
Mass=Very small
Charge=-1
What does the nucleus of an atom contain?
Protons and neutrons
Which of these are neutral; atoms or ions?
Atoms
What does the atomic number tell us?(the bottom number)
How many protons there are
What does the mass number tell us?(the top number)
The total number of protons and neutrons in the atom
What is an element?
A substance that only contains atoms with the same number of protons.
What is an isotope?
Different forms of the same element, which have the SAME NUMBER OF PROTONS but a DIFFERENT NUMBER OF NEUTRONS.
What is the equation for relative atomic mass(Ar)?
Sum of (isotope abundance(%)x isotope mass number) / Sum of abundances(%) of all the isotopes
What is an example of compounds which are bonded ionically?
Sodium chloride
What is it called when positive and negative (opposite) charges of the ions are strongly attracted to each other?
Ionic bonding
What is covalent bonding?
When an atom shares an electron with another atom.
What is filtration used for?
If a product is an insoluble solid that needs to be separated from a liquid reaction mixture.
Explain the steps of evaporation
Pour the solution into an evaporating dish.
The solvent will evaporate, and the solution will get more concentrated. Eventually crystals will start to form.
Keep heating until all you have left are dry crystals.
