Atoms, Elements, and thePeriodic Table
Chapters 17-19
The Chemistry of Life
• Cell (skin cell)• basic building block of
living organisms (life)
• Atom • basic building block of
matter
• Where can we find a list of all the different types of atoms?
The Periodic Table of Elements
What are all these letters?
Atomic Symbols
What do all these letters represent?
Atoms? Elements? Both?
How do we distinguish between an element and an atom?
The Periodic Table of Elements
Atom is used to refer to submicroscopic particles is a sample and element is used for
microscopic and macroscopic samples.

1.Electron
2. ___________
2. Proton
3. __________
3. Neutron
• The parts that make up an atom are called subatomic subatomic particlesparticles.– Protons (p+) positively charged particle– Neutron (n) neutral particle (uncharged)– Electrons (e-) negatively charged particle
• Neutrons and Protons are located in the nucleusnucleus of an atom and are called nucleons.
• Electrons orbit around the nucleus.
• How are atoms of different elements distinguished from one another? In other words, how do we distinguish a helium atom from a carbon atom?– Their Number of Protons.
• What on the periodic table give us this information?– Atomic Number
Carbon
Atomic Number = 6
Mass Number = 12
The Periodic Table and Atoms
• Atomic Number– Gives us the number
of protons. and electrons in a neutral atom.
• Atom Mass– Tells us the atomic
mass of an atom of that element (measured in AMU, we’ll talk about this later)
How do we know how many neutrons there are in an atom?
• 1 proton = 1 atomic mass unit
• 1 neutron = 1 atomic mass unit
• 1 electron = nothing– Electrons are 1/1840 the
size of a proton or neutron.
– They do not factor into the atomic mass of an element
•So what formula can we come up with to determine the number of neutrons in an atom?
•Atomic Mass – Atomic Number = # of Neutrons
Lets practice!!! Find the missing information?

Radioactivity and Imbalance of Forces
• Strong nuclear force - The Strong Nuclear Force (also referred to as the strong force) is one of the four basic forces in nature (the others being gravity, the electromagnetic force, and the weak nuclear force). As its name implies, it is the strongest of the four. However, it also has the shortest range, meaning that particles must be extremely close before its effects are felt. Its main job is to hold together the subatomic particles of the nucleus (protons, which carry a positive charge, and neutrons, which carry no charge. These particles are collectively called nucleons).
• Balance between electric and the strong nuclear force is needed for a stable nucleus.
Radioactivity
Radioactivity – the process by which certain elements emit particular form of radiation.
• Radioactive – any element which emits any of these forms of radiation– Alpha radiation– Beta radiation– Gamma radiation
Alpha Radiation• Alpha particle –
combination of two protons and two neutrons
Beta Radiation• Beta particle – an
electron that is ejected by an atom

Chapter 21: Chemistry
Elements of ChemistryChapter 21
• What is chemistry?– Chemistry is the study of matter and the
transformations it can undergo.
– In other words, Chemistry is the study of atoms, molecules, and the interactions between them.
• Molecule – a unit of matter consisting of 2 or more atoms linked together
Properties of Substances Physical and Chemical
• Physical properties – describe the look or feel of a substance– Color, density, texture,
phase
• Physical change – substance changes its phase or some other physical property but not its chemical composition
Properties of SubstancesPhysical and Chemical
• Chemical properties – properties that relate to how a substance reacts with others.– Chemical property of baking soda is that it
reacts with vinegar to produce CO2 and H2O.
• Chemical change – any change in a substance that involves the rearrangement of its chemical bonds– Chemical bond – attraction between two
atoms that hold them together in a molecule.
Chemical Reaction
• Chemical reaction – same thing as chemical change.
• Let’s take a look at the chemical reaction that magnesium (Mg) undergoes with oxygen (O).
Magnesium

Chemical Change or Physical Change
• Physical change – substance changes its phase or some other physical property but not its chemical composition
• Chemical change – any change in a substance that involves the rearrangement of its chemical bonds
Element or Compound
How will Magnesium (Mg) and Oxygen (O) bind together?
Let’s take a look at this reaction.
Magnesium Oxide (MgO)
Can we come up with an easier way to represent this
Chemical Reaction?• Yes, we can write a chemical equation.
– chemical equation – a representation of a chemical reaction showing the relative numbers of reactants and products
• Mg2+ + O2- MgO
• So we get
• Mg + O MgO
Chemical Equation
• Lets write the chemical equation for Beryllium (Be) reacting with Fluorine (F).
– Be2+ + F1- BeF2
– Be + F BeF2
– Can we create or destroy matter?
• No, So we need to balance our equation then.
– Be + 2F BeF2
Balance the Following Chemical Equations
• Hydrogen reacts with oxygen to form water
• ___H2 + ___O2 => ___H2O
• ___Na + ___O2 => ___Na2O2
• ___Mg + ___Cl2 => ___MgCl2

Chemical Reactions and Equations
• ReactantsReactants - The elements or compounds that enter into a chemical reaction
• ProductsProducts - The elements or compounds produced by a chemical reaction
The Octet Rule• The octet rule says that atoms tend to gain,
lose or share electrons so as to have eight electrons in their outer electron shell. It is a very useful rule but you should also know that there are many bonding situations where it does not apply.
• Very simply, when atoms bond together they want to have 8 electrons in their outer shell.
Chemical Equations
• Step one – Write atomic symbols for Reactants• Step two – Write in the ionic charges for the
reactants• Step three – Write in the product (remember to
cross the ionic charges)• Step four – Balance the equation• Step five – Re-write the complete chemical
equation

WATER (H2O)
Electronegativity and Polarity
• Electronegativity – the affinity (want) for electrons.
• A water molecule is polar because there is an uneven distribution of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms.
TIMEOUT from WATER
Van Der Waals Forces
• Forces of attraction between molecules.
• Not nearly as strong as ionic or covalent bonds.
• Molecule – smallest unit of most compounds.
Hydrogen Bonds
• A type of Van Der Waals force.
• Not as strong as Ionic or covalent bonds
• But the strongest of all other bonds.
CohesionThe attraction between molecules of the same
substance
AdhesionThe attraction between molecules of different
substances.
Capillary ActionCombination of adhesion and cohesion
Why does polarity and hydrogen bonding makes water so special?
There are many reasons, but two main reasons are:
#1 ICE Floats
• ICE FLOATS• Water is one of the only substances that
expands when is freezes.• Almost all other substance constricts when
temperature drops.• This occurs because of the polarity of the
molecule.• Ice is less dense than water.

The pH Scale
• measurement system used to indicate the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) in solution; ranges from 0 to 14
Acids Acidic solutions contain higher concentrations
of H+ ions than pure water and have pH values below 7.
Bases
Basic, or alkaline, solutions contain lower concentrations of H+ ions than pure water and have pH values above 7.
Acid and Base Buffers
• Cells in our body like to keep their pH between 6.5 and 7.5 on the pH scale.
• A buffer helps to do just that!
• Buffer - weak acid or base that can react with strong acids or bases to help prevent sharp, sudden changes in pH

Organic Chemistry
• The study of carbon compounds.Is Carbon that important to devote an entire branch
of chemistry to it?YESCarbon atoms have four valence electrons. Each
electron can join with an electron from another atom to form a strong covalent bond. Carbon can bond with many elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, and nitrogen.
Even more important, carbon can bond with itself.
Macromolecules
Are “giant molecules” formed from thousands or hundreds of thousands of smaller molecules
Monomers (links) are the smaller units which are joined together to form Polymers (bike chain)
The four main groups of macromolecules (organic compounds) are:
