[SCIENCE] chem - models for the atom

Hannah Rabano Mentorsplus Review English 24 cards

Cards in this deck (24)

  1. 1spherical model (discoverer)Leucippus and Democritus
  2. 2spherical model (def)the continued division of matter would eventually yield indivisible particles
  3. 3atom acc to spherical model- indivisible particles
    - solid and spherical
  4. 4theory of john dalton- atoms cannot be created nor destroyed but they combine to form complex structures
    - each element is made up of their own type of atoms that have distinct weights
  5. 5what model did john dalton adoptspherical model
    (john dalton)
  6. 6plum pudding model (discoverer)Joseph John Thomson
  7. 7plum pudding model (def)- cathode rays are composed of negatively charged particles which are much smaller than the atom
    - atom is not indivisible but is a spherical sea of positive charge with embedded negatively-charged corpuscles called electrons
  8. 8electrons acc to plum pudding modelembedded negatively-charged corpuscles
  9. 9experiment under nuclear modelgold foil experiment
  10. 10gold foil experiment (who conducted)Ernest Rutherford
  11. 11gold foil experiment (def)- bombarded a thin gold foil with alpha particles (which are positively charged)
    - results showed that alpha particles passed through most of the atom, but a few were heavily deflected
  12. 12theory of ernest rutherford- atom is mostly open space with most of its mass concentrated in a small positively charged nucleus
    - the lighter electrons surround this nucleus
    - atoms of different elements have different positive charges
  13. 13who discovered protonsEugen Goldstein
  14. 14positively charged particlesprotons
  15. 15who discovered neutronsJames Chadwick
  16. 16neutral particlesneutrons
  17. 17what hold protons togetherneutrons
  18. 18planetary model (discoverer)Niels Bohr
  19. 19planetary model (def)- electrons can be found around the nucleus only along particular orbits with a specific energy level
    - resembles planets of the solar system that have distinct orbits
  20. 20quantum mechanical model (discoverer)> Louie de Broglie
    > Erwin Schrödinger
    > Werner Heisenberg
  21. 21quantum mechanical model (Louie de Broglie: def)subatomic particles such as electrons exhibit wave-like behavior
  22. 22quantum mechanical model (Erwin Schrödinger: def)- he mathematically modeled electrons as waves
    - was able to predict phenomena that cannot be explained by Bohr’s model
  23. 23quantum mechanical model (Werner Heisenberg: def)- it is mathematically impossible to know the position and momentum of an electron at the same time
    - the model does not show the exact position of electrons but the regions
    where electrons are most likely to be found (atomic orbitals)
  24. 24atomic orbitals acc to quantum mechanical modelregions where electrons are most likely to be found
