History of Chemistry

• 400 B.C. Greeks proposed 4 elements
• Earth
• Fire
• Water
• Air
• Next 2000 yearsalchemy
• During this period discoveries were made
• Hg, S, Sb
• prepared acids

6
Controversial Thinking!
Democritus (460-370 B.C)
Greek thinker Coined the term atoms and thought
they were indivisible.
Aristotle (384 B.C.-322B.C.)
Thought matter was continuous and indefinitely
divisible (did not believe in atoms) His idea
was accepted for nearly 2000 years!
7
Indivisible or Divisible?Democritis vs. Aristotle

Robert Boyle

• Founder of Modern Chemistry (1627-1691)
• Took the Al out of Alchemy (although he started
  as one)
• First scientist to understand the importance of
  careful measurement
• Insisted science be based on experiments
• Famous for P1/V

9
Late 1700s

• Most chemists accepted element definition
• Understood elements combined to form compounds
  with various properties
• Disagreed whether compounds are always in the
  same ratio

10
What happened in 1790?

• Study of matter was revolutionized by new
  emphasis on Quantitative Analysis
• Aided by improved balances
• Measurements were actually ACCURATE!!!

11
Antoine Lavoisier

• Father of Modern Chemistry (1743-1794)
• Recognized and named hydrogen and oxygen
• Introduced the metric system
• Wrote first list of elements and revised
  nomenclature
• Because of prominence in pre-revolutionary
  government, was beheaded at the height of the
  French revolution

12
Law of Conservation of Mass
Mass is neither created nor destroyed during
chemical or physical reactions.
Total mass of reactants Total mass of products
Antoine Lavoisier
13
Law of Definite (or Constant) Composition

• The fact that a chemical compound contains the
  same elements in exactly the same proportions by
  mass regardless of the size of the sample or the
  source of the compound.

14
What does this mean? (Law of Definite Composition)

• 50.0 g sample of pure H2O decomposed into its
  elements
• would find 5.6 g H and 44.4 g oxygen
• mass would be
• mass H 5.60 g x 100 11.2 H
• total mass 50.0 g
• mass 0 44.4 g x 100 88.8 O
• total mass 50.0 g

15
Law of Multiple Proportions

• If two or more different compounds are composed
  of the same two elements, then the ratio of the
  masses of the second element combined with a
  certain mass of the first element is always a
  ratio of small whole numbers. (CO, CO2)

17
John DaltonBeginning of Modern Atomic Theory

• Englishman from a Quaker family (1766-1844)
• Revolutionized chemistry by emphasizing that
  atoms can have weights and weights can be
  measured (quantitative)
• Opened a school at age 12
• Color blind/researched
• Interested in botany
• Theory not accepted until 1905 Albert Einstein
  paper

18
Daltons Atomic Theory (1808)

• All matter is composed of extremely small
  particles called atoms (fundamental particles)
• Atoms of a given element are identical.

John Dalton

• Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or
  destroyed.
• Atoms of different elements combine in simple
  whole-number ratios to form chemical compounds.
  (Law of Multiple Proportions)
• In chemical reactions, atoms are combined,
  separated, or rearranged

19
Dalton vs. Today
All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. (fundamental particles) Atoms are not fundamental, made up of smaller particles (protons, neutrons, electrons)
Atoms of a given element are identical. Atoms of a given element have same p and e-, but may differ in of neutrons.
Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed. except in nuclear chemistry
Law of Multiple Proportions Law of Multiple Proportions
In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged

Atomic Particles
Particle Charge Mass (kg) Location
Electron (e-) (J.J.Thomson 1897) -1 9.109 x 10-31 Electron cloud
Proton (p) (Thomson/Goldstein/ Rutherford 1907-1919) 1 1.673 x 10-27 Nucleus
Neutron (no) (Chadwick 1932) 0 1.675 x 10-27 Nucleus
23
Discovery of the Electron
In 1897, J.J. Thomson used a cathode ray tube to
deduce the presence of a negatively charged
particle.
Cathode ray tubes pass electricity through a gas
that is contained at a very low pressure.
24

26
Mass of the Electron
1909 Robert Millikan determines the mass of the
electron.
The oil drop apparatus
Mass of the electron is 9.109 x 10-31 kg
27
Conclusions from the Study of the Electron

• Cathode rays have identical properties
  regardless of the element used to produce them.
  All elements must contain identically charged
  electrons.
• Atoms are neutral, so there must be positive
  particles in the atom to balance the negative
  charge of the electrons
• Electrons have so little mass that atoms must
  contain other particles that account for most of
  the mass

28
Thomsons Atomic Model
Thomson believed that the electrons were like
plums embedded in a positively charged pudding,
thus it was called the plum pudding
model. Based on the following facts (1) atoms
contain small, negatively charged particles
called electrons and (2) the atoms of the element
behave as if they have no charge at all
29
Ernest Rutherford

• 1871-1937
• Learned physics in JJ Thomsons lab
• Did much work with alpha particles ( charged
  part with mass)
• Most famous for his GOLD FOIL EXPERIMENT

Try it Yourself!
In the following pictures, there is a target
hidden by a cloud. To figure out the shape of the
target, we shot some beams into the cloud and
recorded where the beams came out. Can you figure
out the shape of the target?

Rutherfords Findings

• Most of the particles passed right through
• A few particles were deflected
• VERY FEW were greatly deflected

Like howitzer shells bouncing off of tissue
paper!
Conclusions

• The nucleus is small
• The nucleus is dense
• The nucleus is positively charged

37
Disbelievers.

• Albert Einstein when to his grave not totally
  believing it
• According to classical physics, the electron
  would have collapsed into the nucleus
• 1910-1930 began the Quantum Physics Revolution
  (the physics of atomic and subatomic particles)

38
The Atomic Scale

• Most of the mass of the atom is in the nucleus
  (protons and neutrons)
• Electrons are found outside of the nucleus (the
  electron cloud)
• Most of the volume of the atom is empty space

q is a particle called a quark
39

Oopswrong Quark!

About Quarks
Protons and neutrons are NOT fundamental
particles.
Protons are made of two up quarks and one
down quark.
Neutrons are made of one up quark and two
down quarks.
Quarks are held together by gluons

The Year 1860.

• First International Congress of Chemists
• 60 to 70 of 113 elements had been discovered
• Italian chemist Cannizzaro presented method for
  measurement of atomic mass that all could agree
  on.

60
Dimitri Mendeeleev

• Writing a book about the same time.
• Wanted to include new information of atomic
  masses
• Wanted to find an arrangement for all of the
  information on the 60-70 elements

61
Law of Mendeleev

• Properties of the elements recur in regular
  cycles (periodically) when the elements are
  arranged in order of increasing atomic mass.

Properties of Metals

• Metals are good conductors of heat and
  electricity
• Metals are malleable
• Metals are ductile
• Metals have high tensile strength
• Metals have luster

74
Figure 3.17 Spherical atoms packed closely
together.
75
Metalloids

• Mostly brittle solids
• Properties between metal and non-metal
  (semi-conductors)
• With exception of Bismuth, found in nature only
  as compound
• Once obtained as free metals, that are stable in
  the presence of air

76
Properties of Nonmetals
Carbon, the graphite in pencil lead is a great
example of a nonmetallic element.

• Nonmetals are poor conductors of heat and
• electricity
• Nonmetals tend to be brittle
• Many nonmetals are gases at room temperature

77
Examples of Nonmetals
Microspheres of phosphorus, P, a reactive
nonmetal
Sulfur, S, was once known as brimstone
Graphite is not the only pure form of carbon, C.
Diamond is also carbon the color comes from
impurities caught within the crystal structure

TYPES OF IONS (Remember an ion is an atom or
group of atoms that has a net or net charge.
Cations

• Positively charged ions

• Smaller than the corresponding
• atom (lost e/closer together)

Anions

• Negatively charged ions

• Larger than the corresponding
