           electron; measurement of the charge-to-mass
           ratio.

         • Robert Millikan (1923 Nobel Prize in Physics)

            Experiments - Electrons

Results of “Cathode Ray” Experiments

• Travel in straight lines
• invisible
• independent of cathode composition
• bend in a magnetic field like a
  negatively-charged particle would
• charge/mass = -1.76 x 108 C/g

electrons distributed throughout a diffuse, positively charged sphere.

        Robert Millikan’s oil drop Experiment -
         measured the mass of the electron

                    Millikan’s Results
•   The air molecules in the chamber were ionized by a beam of X-rays,
    producing electrons and positively-charged fragments
•   Fine mist of oil introduced into chamber; electrons adhere to the
    droplets
•   Negatively-charged droplets settle to bottom of chamber under
    influence of gravity
•   Charged repeller plates adjusted until droplets were suspended in
    mid-air
•   From the physics and knowledge of the size of the gravitational and
    electrostatic forces, the charge on each droplet could be calculated
•   Discovered that each droplet was a whole-number multiple of 1.60 X
    10-19 C, so the mass = 9.11 X 10-28 g

                Rutherford's Observations

     b) Expected results from “plum            c) Actual results.
            pudding” model.

1. the majority of particles penetrated undeflected
2. some particles were deflected at small angles
3. occasionally -particles scattered back at large angles

            Rutherford’s Conclusions
      • The atom is mainly empty space
        because most of the -particles passed
        through undeflected
      • The nucleus is very dense and
        positively charged because some of the
        -particles were repulsed and deflected
      • Electrons occupy the space around the
        nucleus
      • The atom is electrically neutral

                                                                           7

           Rutherford’s Model of the Atom

             atomic radius ~ 100 pm = 1 x 10-10 m
          nuclear radius ~ 5 x 10-3 pm = 5 x 10-15 m
If the nucleus was the size of an orange, then the radius of the atom would
be 2.5 miles

          Atomic Mass Units
• Atomic Mass Units (amu)
  • Comprise a relative scale to express the
    masses of atoms and subatomic particles.
  • Scale is based on the mass of 1 atom
    of carbon:
      » 6 protons + 6 neutrons = 12 amu.
  • 1 amu = 1 Dalton (Da)

       Isotopes: Experimental Evidence

Atomic number (Z) = number of protons in nucleus
Mass number (A) = number of protons + number of neutrons
                   = atomic number (Z) + number of neutrons
Isotopes (nuclides) are atoms of the same element with
                    different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus

         The Periodic Table of the Elements
            Mendeleev’s Periodic Table
Dmitrii Mendeleev (1872):
• Ordered elements
  by atomic mass.
• Arranged elements in
  columns based on similar
  chemical and physical
  properties.
• Left open spaces in the
  table for elements not yet
  discovered.

   The Modern Periodic Table
• Also based on a classification of elements in
  terms of their physical and chemical
  properties.
• Horizontal rows: called periods (1 → 7).
• Columns: contain elements of the same
  family or group (1 →18).
• Several groups have names as well as
  numbers.

 Average Atomic Mass

Weighted average mass of natural sample of an element,
calculated by multiplying the natural abundance of each
isotope by its exact mass in amu’s and then summing up
these products.
AM = (mass 1)(abn) + (mass 2)(abn) + (mass 3)(abn) +………
