Daltons 4 theory on atoms
- Elements are composed of extremely small particles called atoms
- All atoms of a give element are identical but atoms of another element are different
- Atoms of an element are not changed into atoms of a different element by chemical rxns. Atoms are not created or destroyed
- Compounds are formed when atoms of more than one element combine. A compound always has the same relative number and kind of atoms
JJ Thompson
1897- credited with the discovery of electrons. Was able to discover a charge/mass ratio.
Millikan
1909- oil drop experiment allowed him to determine charge on the electron.
Radioactivity
Spontaneous emission of radiation by an atom
3 types of radiation
Alpha-positive
Beta- negative
Gamma-neutral
Rutherford
Discovered the nucleus via the gold foil experiment. Postulated a very small dense nucleus and most of the other volume of the atom is empty space.
Proteins discovered by Rutherford in 1919
James Chadwick
Discovered neutrons in 1932
Average mass
Mass divided by their relative abundance
7 diatomic elements
H2 N2 O2 F2 Cl2 I2 Br2.
Empirical vs molecular formula
Empirical is lowest whole number and molecular is exact number of each atom in a compound
Inorganic nomenclature Rule 1
Metal with nonmetal- name the cation and change the last 3 letters to ide
NaCl is sodium chloride
Inorganic nomenclature Rule #2
Transitional element with nonmetal- keeps Rule #1 but indicate charge with Roman numeral
Fe2O3 is Iron (III) Oxide
Oxygen has a -2 charge for a total of -6 so Fe must have +3 charge to make it +6
Rule for hydrogen charge
H is +1 except when reacting with metals then it is a -1
Inorganic Nomenclature Rule #3
Naming two nonmetal- keep Rule number 1 but use prefix
H2O. Is dihydrogen oxide
Acid nomenclature
Must be in aqueous solution.
IDE becomes ic
HCL is hydrochloric acid
When three elements use middle one for naming.
Ite becomes ous
Ate becomes ic
HNO2. Is nitrous acid
HNO3 is nitric acid
Mnemonic for ate polyatomic ions

NO Br CO IO ClO CrO SO PO
Matter
Anything that has mass and takes up space
Atoms are the
Building block of matter
A compound is made of two or more different
Kinds of elements
Intensive properties are
Independent of the amount
Chromatography
Separates substances on the basis of difference in solubility
Metric prefixes

F to C
F= 9/5C +32
Sig Fig Rules
All nonzero digits are significant
zeroes between two sig figs are sig
Zeroes at the beginning are Never sig
Zeroes at the end of a number are sig if a decimal point is written in the number
