• Lived from 460-370 B.C

• Ancient Greek philosopher

• His mentor was Leucippus

• The two of them worked together on atoms

•He was more of a scientists than other Greek philosophers

•Leucippus and Democritus realized that the world consisted of myriads of

indivisible particles, called atoms which were the smallest particles of

matter possible•Upon further speculation, they came up

with the idea that the observable properties of common materials are because of the different shapes of

atoms which they contain, or different motions of atoms

• Lived from 384 to 322 BC

• He was a Greek philosopher

• A student of Plato and a teacher of Alexander the Great

• Had ideas referring to many different subjects

• Aristotle’s Theory of the Elements: A piece of matter could be divided an infinite number of times and one would never

find a piece of matter that could be further divided

• He believed in the four elements: earth, fire, water, and air

• According to him, everything in the world was made up of some combination of these four elements

•At this time this was the most popular theory.

•The atomic theories that were created at this time were not 100% accurate; however, they provided insight in an area never explored

before•The central ideas of Leucippus and Democritus have remained

unchanged

Lavoisier burnt phosphorous and sulfur in air and proved the products weighed more than the reactants but the weight gained was lost from the air.

Lavoisier burnt phosphorous and sulfur in air and proved the products weighed more than the reactants but the weight gained was lost from the air.

ExperimentExperiment

When you heat a piece of copper metal in air, it comes together with oxygen in the air. If you weigh it, it is found to have a greater mass that the original piece. However, the mass of the oxygen of the air is combined with the mass of copper, the mass of the product is equal to the sum of the masses of the copper and oxygen that were combined.

Ernest Rutherford, 1st Baron Rutherford of Nelson was a British-New Zealand chemist and physicist. In his early work he discovered the concept of radioactive half and also differentiated and named alpha and beta radiation. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1908 "for his investigations into the disintegration of the elements, and the chemistry of radioactive substances”.

ConclusionsConclusions

The Gold Foil experiment showed that the plum pudding model of the atom was not accurate. This is because the experiment showed how there had to be a piece of the atom with a large mass in the center of the atom. The realization that things were not just loosely "hanging out" around an atom but instead are arranged in a specific way around a center led him to discover the Atomic Nucleus. See diagram below

More ConclusionsMore Conclusions

Without this discovery, much of what we know about atoms would not be possible. If not for the discovery of the nucleus, we could not know about the important parts that it consists of (protons and neutrons). Also, the periodic table of elements that we all know so well (from intense memorization for Chemistry tests), the elements would not be ordered the same way, because Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Also, we can also identify different atoms by mass number. This is the number of protons and neutrons added together in the nucleus. All these things, and many more, that are the basis of our knowledge of atoms would not be possible without the information from Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment.

James Chadwick Background Info

James Chadwick Background Info

•Chadwick was born in Cheshire, England in 1891.•He went to Manchester University in 1908.•After college, he spent his time studying under Professor Rutherford.•Professor Rutherford created the first artificial nuclear transformation.•This is where he made studies on atomic nuclei.•In 1921, he became Assistant Director of Research of the Cavendish Laboratory.•In 1927, he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.

Background Info (con’t) In 1932, he discovered the

existence of neutrons. For this he was awarded the

Hughes Medal of the royal society.

He was later awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1935 for physics.

From 1943 to 1946, he worked in the United States on the Manhattan Project for the development of the atomic bomb.

He retired in England in 1948.

He died in 1974.

Neutron Discovery Rutherford discovered the proton in the nucleus

Noticed it was not the only particle in the nucleus Atomic mass could not only be the mass of protons

(e.g. Helium has an atomic mass of 4, but the number of protons is 2

Chadwick went further in trying to discover the neutron, and kept on trying, even as he failed.

Walter Bothe and Herbert Becker did experiments with beryllium where it emitted radiation to penetrate 200 mLs of lead. They thought this was high energy gamma rays, but Chadwick noticed it was something else

Without the clues and inspirations of Rutherford, Bothe, and Becker, Chadwick would not have been able to discover the neutron.

Neutron Discovery (Cont.)

Two other scientists, Federic and Irlene Joliot-Curry, tracked particle radiation by putting paraffin wax in front of the rays (thought to be gamma rays) coming from the beryllium. During this, they observed high-speed protons coming out the paraffin.

Chadwick recognized the rays from the beryllium were not gamma rays because they were too strong. He concluded that they were neutrons. He did his own experiments to back this up.

Since neutrons are neutral, they can penetrate thick layers of different substances because they are not disturbed by positive or negative charges.

Chadwick also discovered that the mass of a neutron is 1.0067

The Neutron Experiment

Significance By knowing about the

neutron, scientists could use atomic number and atomic mass because they were no longer extremely similar.

Also, knowing about neutrons was important in the creation of nuclear weapons and nuclear reactors.

In addition, the creation of plutonium-235 and uranium-235 is caused by their absorption of neutrons.

Significance (Cont.) At extremely high pressure and temperature, neutrons and

electrons collapse into neutronic matter, known as neutronium.

This is what happens in neutron stars Neutron capture results in neutron activation, which

creates radioactivity Used to excited delayed and prompy gamma rays from

elements in materials Neutron emitters can detect light in the nuclei,

especially hydrogen found in water molecules.

Significance of Bohr and Shell Model

Significance of Bohr and Shell Model

Shell Model is used as a basis for Chemistry, since Chemistry is about the RXNS and interactions between elements/chemicals

The Bohr Model gave a more accurate model of an atom. The fact that electron movement was not applicable in classical mechanics caused the introduction of quantum mechanics into modern science.
