Subatomic particles in ions In reduction and oxidation reactions, electrons are transferred. When elements react to form ions, electrons are either lost or gained. This results in a stable electron arrangement. • • What changes to electrons occur during the formation of positive ions? What changes to electrons occur during the formation of negative ions?

The arrangement of the electrons The electrons are found at considerable distances from the nucleus in a series of levels called energy levels. Each energy level can only hold a certain number of electrons. The first level (nearest the nucleus) will only hold 2 electrons, the second holds 8, and the third also seems to be full when it has 8 electrons. These levels can be thought of as getting progressively further from the nucleus. Electrons will always go into the lowest possible energy level (nearest the nucleus) - provided there is space.
What is the electronic arrangement in chlorine ? The Periodic Table gives you the atomic number of 17. Therefore there are 17 protons and 17 electrons. The arrangement of the electrons will be 2, 8, 7 (i. e. 2 in the first level, 8 in the second, and 7 in the third). The electronic arrangements of the first 20 elements
Two important generalisations If you look at the patterns in this table: The number of electrons in the outer level is the same as the group number. (Except with helium which has only 2 electrons. T he noble gases are also usually called group 0 - not group 8. ) This pattern extends throughout the Periodic Table for the main groups (i. e. not including the transition elements). So if you know that barium is in group 2, it has 2 electrons in its outer level; iodine (group 7) has 7 electrons in its outer level; lead (group 4) has 4 electrons in its outer level. Noble gases have full outer levels.

RELATIVE MASSES Relative Atomic Mass (Ar) The mass of an atom relative to the 12 C isotope having a value of 12. 000 Ar = average mass per atom of an element x 12 mass of one atom of carbon-12 Relative Isotopic Mass Similar, but uses the mass of an isotope 238 U Relative Molecular Mass (Mr) Similar, but uses the mass of a molecule CO 2, N 2 Relative Formula Mass Used for any formula of a species or ion Na.

ISOTOPES Definition Atoms with… the same atomic number but different mass number or the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons. Properties Chemical properties of isotopes are identical Physical properties (such as density) can differ Theory Relative atomic masses measured by chemical methods rarely produce whole numbers but they should do (allowing for the low relative mass of the electron). This was explained when the mass spectrograph revealed that atoms of the same element could have different masses due to the variation in the number of neutrons in the nucleus. The observed mass was a consequence of the abundance of each type of isotope. ISOTOPES OF HYDROGEN Protons Neutrons 1 H 1 1 0 2 H 1 1 1 3 H 1 1 2

MASS SPECTRA An early application was the demonstration by Aston, (Nobel Prize, 1922), that naturally occurring neon consisted of 3 isotopes. . . 20 Ne 21 Ne 22 Ne. • positions of peaks gives atomic mass • peak intensity gives relative abundance • highest abundance is scaled up to 100% - other values are adjusted accordingly. Abundance / % 90. 92 8. 82 0. 26 19 20 21 22 23 m/z Calculate the average relative atomic mass of neon using the above information. Out of every 100 atoms 90. 92 are Average = 20 Ne , 0. 26 are 21 Ne and 8. 82 are 22 Ne (90. 92 x 20) + (0. 26 x 21) + (8. 82 x 22) = 20. 179 100 Relative atomic mass = 20. 18
Can we calculate the % composition if we know the isotopes ? Naturally occurring potassium consists of potassium-39 and potassium-41. Calculate the percentage of each isotope present if the average is 39. 1. Assume there are x nuclei of 39 K in every 100; so there will be (100 -x) of 41 K so 39 x + 41 (100 -x) 100 = 39. 1 therefore 39 x + 4100 - 41 x = 3910 thus - 2 x = - 190 and ANSWER x = 95 There will be 95% 5% 39 K 41 K and
