3. Periodic TablePeriodic Table
Atoms make up all matterAtoms make up all matter
Elements are any material that is made upElements are any material that is made up
of only one type of atomof only one type of atom
Elements are organized onto the periodicElements are organized onto the periodic

6. An Atom is made up of three parts:An Atom is made up of three parts:
ProtonsProtons
NeutronsNeutrons
ElectronsElectrons
7. ElectronsElectrons
Electrons surround the nucleus in anElectrons surround the nucleus in an
electron cloudelectron cloud
Electrons carry a negative chargeElectrons carry a negative charge
The atom is mostly empty spaceThe atom is mostly empty space
9. Why don’t we pass through one another?Why don’t we pass through one another?
Electrical repulsion – two electrons withElectrical repulsion – two electrons with
negative charges will repel each othernegative charges will repel each other
10. ProtonsProtons
Protons and neutrons are bound to theProtons and neutrons are bound to the
atomic nucleusatomic nucleus
Protons carry a positive chargeProtons carry a positive charge
Protons are identified byProtons are identified by Atomic numberAtomic number
atom is electrically neutral: Number ofatom is electrically neutral: Number of
protons = number of electrons;protons = number of electrons;
11. NeutronsNeutrons
Neutron has no electrical charge, but theNeutron has no electrical charge, but the
same mass as a protonsame mass as a proton
Protons and neutrons are called nucleonsProtons and neutrons are called nucleons
Mass given to each proton and neutron is 1Mass given to each proton and neutron is 1

• Electrons are so small they areElectrons are so small they are
considered negligible in massconsidered negligible in mass
• Atomic mass is measured in the unit –Atomic mass is measured in the unit –

13. Agenda Bell work
• Review HW
• Notes: Mass Number,
Isotopes, and Ions
• Practice
• Have HW out to be checked
• Give the protons, electrons,
neutrons, and Atomic Mass
for the following:
– Carbon
– Hydrogen
– Neon
– Zinc
– Silver

20. Ions
Atoms that gain or lose electrons
Lose electrons – positive in charge
Gain electrons – negative in charge
21. Hydrogen that has lost an electron
H+1
Hydrogen that has gained an electron
H-1
