  1. 1Relitive Atomic MassThe weighted average of all the isotopes of an atom, Relitive to 1/12 of Carbon 12
  2. 2Relitive isotopic massMass of one atom of an isotope, Relitive to 1/12 of carbon 12
  3. 3IsotopesDifferent versions of an element or kind of atom
  4. 4Mass Spec: bombardmenthigh energy electrons to a gaseous substance, knocking out an electron forming a positive ion, instantly fragmenting into a positive ion and neutral
  5. 5Mass Spec: accelerationPositive ions accelerated by very high electric potential and passed through slit to form a beam of cations.
  6. 6Mass Spec: deflectionBeam of ions are deflected by powerful magnetic field. The larger massed ions are deflected less.
  7. 7Mass Spec: detectionSmaller mass ions deflected first, then heavier ones last, they are deflected into a detector which is paired to a computer, which calculates its mass to charge ratio and compares it to most abundant particle, this is then converted into a % and graph
  8. 8How to calculate RAM from mass spec graph?(Peak A (M\E) x Relitive abundance) + (Peak b (M/E) x Relitive abundance) (keep doing more if more peaks)
    All divided by 100
  9. 9Calculating Relitive abundanceIf you know mass and RAM of isotopes then use algebra. 1. X 2. 1-X
    RAM=peak a X + peak B 1-X
  10. 10Valence electronsElectrons in outer shell
  11. 11S-Orbital2 electrons
    Spherical shape
    Start with 1s
  12. 12P orbitals2 electrons but 3 of them so a p orbit holds 6 electrons
    Upside down pear shape
    Starts at 2p
  13. 13D orbitals2 electrons but 5 of them so a D orbit holds 10 electrons
    Starts at 3D
  14. 14Shells1st shell holds 2
    2nd holds 8
    3rd holds 18
  15. 15Electron configure chart1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d
    Fill with split backwards arrow sign. Include energy on arrow axis
  16. 16Aufbau's principleElectrons always fill lowest energy level first
  17. 17Paulis excursion principleAll electrons must have opposite spins
  18. 18Hounds rule of maximum multiplicityElectrons must fill energy levels with parallel spins first
  19. 19Noble gas notationsUse the last noble gas the carry on the electron configuration from that e.g
    [Ne] 3s^3 3p^1
  20. 20Ionisation energyThe energy needed to remove the outer most electron from an atom or ion.
    A(g) -------> A+(g) + e-
  21. 21Value of IE depends on...?More protons- larger the value
    More shielding - less value
    More distance from electron and nucleus - less value.
  22. 22Second IEAmount of energy required to remove 2nd outermost electron.
    A+------> A+2 + e-
  23. 23Forces In AtomsElectrons repel eachother
    Electrons attracted to protons
    Closer electron is to nucleus = stronger
    Repulsion from inner electrons to outer ones
  24. 24Evidence for hunds ruleRelate to IE and the repealing of electron in energy levels.
  25. 25Electron affinityThe amount of energy required to give an electron to an atom.
    A(g) + e- -------> A-(g)
  26. 26Second EAAlways positive
    A-(g) + e- --------> A-2 (g)
  27. 27RadioactivitySome isotopes of elements are radioactive.
  28. 28Short half lifeVery radioactive but decreases very rapidly quickly.
  29. 29Long half lifeNot very radioactive but a long time.
  30. 30Alpha raysHelium nuclei
    2 protons an 2 neutrons
    Few sheets of paper stops it.
  31. 31Beta raysStopped by thin sheet of metal.
  32. 32Gamma raysThick concrete stops these.
  33. 33Nuclear fissionSome nuclei fissile. Nucleus absorbs neutron and then breaks into smaller pieces. 2 or 3 neutrons released. Splits into two nuclei. Some energy released.
    Chain reaction.
  34. 34Nuclear fusionWhen nucleus of hydrogen isotopes fuse together enormous amounts of energy released. This emergency drives the universe and makes stars(Suns)
  35. 35ELECTRONEGATIVITY IE EAIncrease across period
    Decrease down group
