Today’s vocab • • Orbital Principal energy level Proton Spectral lines Subatomic particle Valence electron wave mechanical model
• Smallest particle of an element that represents its physical and chemical properties
• Atom
Subatomic particle with a charge of -1 and a mass of 1/1836 of an amu; orbits the nucleus
electron
Substance that can be decomposed by a chemical change; composed of 2 or more elements chemically combined in a definite ratio
compound
An atom with one or more electrons not in the ground state or lowest energy level
Excited state
Atoms with the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons
Isotopes
The name for the superscript 4 in
Mass number
Name given to the outermost principal energy level
Valence level
How many shells in the following atom?
Four
How many valence electrons in the following atom?
one
Region of most probable location of electrons in an atom
orbital
Subatomic particle located in the nucleus with a charge of +1; determines the identity of the element
proton
Weighted average of all the isotopic masses of an element
Atomic mass
1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom
amu or atomic mass unit
Concepts Atoms: What are they made of? How are they put together? How do we know?
Parts • Nucleus has most of mass (protons: +1, neutrons: 0) • Electrons (-, lightweight) orbit in shells
Rutherford’s model
Bohr Model
Nuclear Notations
Electron configurations
Electron dot structures • As would likely make 3 covalent bonds
