30. A physical property
is

31. Properties depend on size

32. Properties do not depend on size

33. A chemical property is

34. 1. All matter have ______ and will
occupy ________.
2. Matter is made up of __________.
3. Between these particles are
___________.

36. Studying about what matter is
made of involves dealing with
very small “particles” beyond
what your eyes can see.

37. The atomic model
has changed
throughout the
centuries, starting in
400 BC, when it
looked like a billiard
ball.

38. Almost 2,500 years ago, Greek
philosophers, Leucippus and his disciple,
Democritus believed that nature consisted
of two things, “atoms and the void that
surrounds them” (Knieram, 1995-2013).
They believed that “atoms are physically,
but not geometrically, indivisible.”

39. He named the
smallest piece of
matter “atomos,”
meaning “not to
be cut.”

40. To DEMOCRITUS
•Atoms were small, hard particles that
were all made of the same material but
were different shapes and sizes.
•Atoms were infinite in number, always
moving and capable of joining together.

41. This theory was
ignored and
forgotten for more
than 2000 years!

42. •The eminent
philosophers of the
time, Aristotle and
Plato, had a more
respected, (and
ultimately wrong)
theory.

44. •In the early 1800s,
the English Chemist
John Dalton
performed a
number of
experiments that
eventually led to the
acceptance of the
idea of atoms.

45. •All elements are composed of atoms. Atoms
are indivisible and indestructible particles.
•Atoms of the same element are exactly alike.
•Atoms of different elements are different.
•Compounds are formed by the joining of atoms
of two or more elements.
Dalton’s Theory

46. Today, we know that although atoms are
very small, they are not indivisible as
Democritus thought, rather they consist
of still smaller particles, Democritus
was right in one aspect of his belief, that
is, atoms are the smallest particles of
which substances are made.

47. Atoms of most elements have the
ability to combine with other atoms.
When two or more atoms are
combined together in a specific
arrangement, a molecule is
formed.

49. The size of an atom is measured
in angstroms. One angstrom is
a unit of length equal to one ten
millionth of a millimetre.

50. The scanning tunneling microscope
(STM) allows scientists to view and scan the
surface of very small particles like atoms.

54. 11. It is a characteristic that can
be observed without changing or
trying to change the substance.

55. 12. It a characteristic that
cannot be observed without
changing a substance.
