Section 4.1 Early Ideas About Matter
•Compare and contrast the atomic models of
Democritus, Aristotle, and Dalton.
theory: an explanation supported by many
experiments; is still subject to new experimental
data, can be modified, and is considered
successful if it can be used to make predictions
that are true
•Understand how Dalton's theory explains the
conservation of mass.

4. Section 4-1
Section 4.1 Early Ideas About Matter (cont.)
Dalton's atomic theory
The ancient Greeks tried to explain
matter, but the scientific study of the
atom began with John Dalton in the
early 1800's.

5. Section 4-1
Greek Philosophers (cont.)
•Many ancient scholars believed matter was
composed of such things as earth, water,
air, and fire.
•Many believed
matter could be
endlessly divided
into smaller and
smaller pieces.

6. Section 4-1
Greek Philosophers (cont.)
•Democritus (460–370 B.C.) was the first
person to propose the idea that matter was
not infinitely divisible, but made up of
individual particles called atomos.
•Aristotle (484–322 B.C.) disagreed with
Democritus because he did not believe empty
space could exist.
•Aristotle’s views went unchallenged for 2,000
years until science developed methods to test
the validity of his ideas.

7. Section 4-1
Greek Philosophers (cont.)

8. Section 4-1
Greek Philosophers (cont.)
•John Dalton revived the idea of the atom in
the early 1800s based on numerous
chemical reactions.
•Dalton’s atomic theory easily explained
conservation of mass in a reaction as the
result of the combination, separation, or
rearrangement of atoms.

model: a visual, verbal, and/or mathematical
explanation of data collected from many
experiments
•Distinguish between the subatomic particles in
terms of relative charge and mass.
•Describe the structure of the atom, including the
locations of the subatomic particles.

Section 4.2 Defining the Atom (cont.)

neutron
An atom is made of a nucleus containing
protons and neutrons; electrons move
around the nucleus.

15. Section 4-2
The Atom
•The smallest particle of an element that
retains the properties of the element is
called an atom.
•An instrument called the scanning tunneling
microscope (STM) allows individual atoms to
be seen.

16. Section 4-2
The Electron
•When an electric charge is applied, a ray of
radiation travels from the cathode to the
anode, called a cathode ray.
•Cathode rays are a stream of particles
carrying a negative charge.
•The particles carrying a negative charge are
known as electrons.

17. Section 4-2
The Electron (cont.)
•This figure shows a typical cathode ray
tube.

18. Section 4-2
The Electron (cont.)
•J.J. Thomson measured the effects of both
magnetic and electric fields on the cathode
ray to determine the charge-to-mass ratio
of a charged particle, then compared it to
known values.
•The mass of the charged particle was much
less than a hydrogen atom, then the lightest
known atom.
•Thomson received the Nobel Prize in 1906 for
identifying the first subatomic particle—the
electron

19. Section 4-2
The Electron (cont.)
•In the early 1910s, Robert Millikan used the
oil-drop apparatus shown below to
determine the charge of an electron.

20. Section 4-2
The Electron (cont.)
•Charges change in discrete amounts—
1.602  10
–19
coulombs, the charge of one
electron (now equated to a single unit, 1–).
•With the electron’s charge and charge-to-
mass ratio known, Millikan calculated the
mass of a single electron.

a hydrogen
atom

21. Section 4-2
The Electron (cont.)
•Matter is neutral.
•J.J. Thomson's plum pudding model of the
atom states that the atom is a uniform,
positively changed sphere containing
electrons.

22. Section 4-2
The Nucleus
•In 1911, Ernest Rutherford studied how
positively charged alpha particles
interacted with solid matter.
•By aiming the particles at
a thin sheet of gold foil,
Rutherford expected the
paths of the alpha
particles to be only
slightly altered by a
collision with an electron.

23. Section 4-2
The Nucleus (cont.)
•Although most of the alpha particles went
through the gold foil, a few of them
bounced back, some at large angles.

24. Section 4-2
The Nucleus (cont.)
•Rutherford concluded that atoms are
mostly empty space.
•Almost all of the atom's positive charge and
almost all of its mass is contained in a dense
region in the center of the atom called the
nucleus.
•Electrons are held within the atom by their
attraction to the positively charged nucleus.

25. Section 4-2
The Nucleus (cont.)
•The repulsive force between the positively
charged nucleus and positive alpha
particles caused the deflections.

26. Section 4-2
The Nucleus (cont.)
•Rutherford refined the model to include
positively charged particles in the nucleus
called protons.
•James Chadwick received the Nobel Prize in
1935 for discovering the existence of
neutrons, neutral particles in the nucleus
which accounts for the remainder of an
atom’s mass.

27. Section 4-2
The Nucleus (cont.)
•All atoms are made of three
fundamental subatomic
particles: the electron, the
proton, and the neutron.
•Atoms are spherically
shaped.
•Atoms are mostly empty
space, and electrons travel
around the nucleus held by
an attraction to the positively
charged nucleus.

28. Section 4-2
The Nucleus (cont.)
•Scientists have determined that protons
and neutrons are composed of subatomic
particles called quarks.

29. Section 4-2
The Nucleus (cont.)
•Chemical behavior can be explained by
considering only an atom's electrons.

35. Section 4-3
Atomic Number
•Each element contains a unique positive

Isotopes and Mass Number
•All atoms of a particular element have the
same number of protons and electrons but
the number of neutrons in the nucleus can
differ.

different numbers of neutrons are called
isotopes.

37. Section 4-3
Isotopes and Mass Number (cont.)
•The relative abundance of each isotope is
usually constant.

Radioactivity
•Nuclear reactions can change one element
into another element.
•In the late 1890s, scientists noticed some
substances spontaneously emitted radiation,
a process they called radioactivity.
•The rays and particles emitted are called
radiation.
•A reaction that involves a change in an

radioactive decay thus forming stable

changes in the nucleus of an atom.
•There are three types of radiation: alpha (charge of 2+),
beta (charge of 1–), and gamma (no charge).
•The neutron-to-proton ratio of an atom’s nucleus
