Atoms and the Periodic Table
Parts of the Atom
• Proton
–Found in the nucleus
–Number of protons defines the element
–Charge +1, mass 1
Parts of the Atom
• Neutron
–Found in the nucleus
–Stabilizes the nucleus
–Charge 0, mass 1
Parts of the Atom
• Electron
–Found outside the nucleus in the electron cloud
– Does all the work in chemical reactions
–Charge -1, mass 0
ISOTOPES
• Atoms of a given element are not all identical
–They can have different masses
–Chlorine has atoms with masses of
35 amu and 37 amu
These are called isotopes
ISOTOPES
• Atoms of a given element with different masses are called isotopes
– They can have different masses because they have different numbers of neutrons
– Chlorine has atoms with a masses of
35 amu and 37 amu
Both have 17 protons, but the isotope with a mass of 35 has 18 neutrons and the one with a mass of 37 has 20 neutrons
ISOTOPES
• Name an isotope in one of these ways:
Cl1737
37 is the Mass number (# of protons + # of neutrons)
17 is the number of protons
ISOTOPES
• Name an isotope in one of these ways:
Chlorine-37
Or
Cl-37
37 is the mass number of the isotope
ISOTOPES
• Some Isotopes are not stable
–When they decompose, some mass changes to energy. This energy is radiation
• Marie and Pierre Curie researched radioactive isotopes in 1903
How do we know how many?
• Number of protons is the same as the atomic number
• Number of electrons is the same as the number of protons
• Number of neutrons is the atomic mass minus the number of protons
We get these numbers from the Periodic Table

Properties of Metals• Good conductors of heat and electricity
• A clean metal surface will be shiny or “lustrous”
• Solids at room temperature
– (Except mercury [Hg])
• Ductile- can be made into wire
• Malleable- can be hammered into shapes without breaking
Properties of Non-metals
• Properties vary a lot
• Most are gases, but the ones that are not have low melting or boiling points
• Poor conductors of heat or electricity (except carbon)
• If solid, they are brittle – they break easily
• Usually not shiny
Properties of Metalloids
• Also called semi-metals and semiconductors
• Under some conditions they act like metals
• Under other conditions they act like non-metals
• Used in computers and other electronics

– The smallest, lightest element.
– All the other elements get made from hydrogen in the cores of stars or when stars explode.
– Electron configuration is 1s1
