Ernest Rutherford developed a gold foil experiment that proved atoms had empty space II. Types of Radiation A. Alpha Radiation occurs when particles made of two protons and two neutrons are released (He2+ atoms) B. Beta Radiation occurs when an atom emits electrons C. Gamma Rays are when matterless particles are released III. The Quantum Theory A. Waves 1. Smaller waves move faster 2. Speed of waves is measured by frequency B. Light is electromagnetic radiation or wave-like behavior that travels through space C. Wavelength is the shortest distance between equivalent points on a continuous wave D. Frequency is the number of waves that pass at a given point per second E. Amplitude is the waves height from origin to crest F. the Speed of Light is 3.00 * 108 m/s 1. It is measured with the equation C = * G. Quanta are a specific amount of energy that matter can gain or lose H. A Quantum is the minimum amount of energy that can be gained or lost by an atom I. Plancks Constant (6.626 * 10-34) can be used to determine the energy of a quantum 1. It is used in the equation EQuantum = h * J. Light is emitted in particles called photons K. Ground State is the lowest allowed energy level in an atom L. Atoms enter an Excited State when they gain energy M. Niels Bohr suggested that electrons orbit the nucleus in certain spheres called quantum levels (Each has a number assigned to it from 1 to 7) N. The release of energy 1. When an electron falls to the 1st quantum level UV light is released 2. When an electron falls to the 2nd quantum level visible light is released 3. When an electron falls to the 3rd quantum level Infrared light is released O. n=1 (Lyman Series) n=2 (Balmer Series) and n=3 (Paschen Series) are the levels P. Louis de Brogile hypothesized that particles have wave-like properties 1. de Brogile Equation: = h/mv

Eventually evidence of atomic orbital was found T. Electrons orbit the nucleus in S, P, D, and F sublevels 1. the S sublevel has one orbital 2. the P sublevel has three orbitals 3. the D sublevel has five orbitals 4. the F sublevel has seven orbitals IV. Electron Behavior A. Electron Configuration is the arrangement of electrons in an atom B. the Aufbau Principle states that electrons try to occupy the lowest energy orbitals C. the Pauli Exclusion Principle states that a maximum of two electrons can occupy an orbital and only if they have opposite spins V. The Elements A. In the 1700s, Antoine Lavoisier listed and studied all the know elements of the time B. John Newlands proposed an arrangement where elements were ordered by increasing atomic mass C. Octaves are the repeating pattern that occurred in every 8th element D. Dmitri Mendeleev and Julius Meyer demonstrated a connection between elemental mass and the elements properties E. Moseley rearranged the table by increasing atomic number, and resulted in clear patterns F. Most of this information became know as Periodic Law VI. Periodic Table Organization A. Groups are the columns B. Periods are the rows C. Groups 1-2 and 13-18 are know as representative elements D. Groups 3-12 are known as transitional elements VII. Classification A.

Chemical Bonds are the forces that hold two atoms together C. Ionic Bonds form between the positive charges of one atoms nucleus and the other atoms electrons D. The positively charged ion becomes the Cation E. The negatively charged ion becomes the Anion F. Metals are so reactive because they lose valence electrons easily G. Ionic Crystals are formed when a repeated packing of ions into a compound occurs H. The strongest ionic attractions form a Crystal Lattice I. Ions in aqueous solutions that conduct electricity are Electrolytes J. Endothermic reactions absorb heat and Exothermic Reactions release heat K. Lattice Energy is used to break apart ions L. The Electron Sea Model proposed that all metal atoms contribute their valence electrons to forming a sea of electrons M. The electrons in a sea of electrons are call Delocalized Electrons N. As the number of delocalized electrons increases, so does the metals strength X. Covalent Bonding A. Sometimes its possible for atoms to share electrons instead of stealing them B. This allows the atoms in a compound to gain stability C. Diatomic Molecules are molecules made of two of the same atoms that bond to each other naturally 1. Iodine, Bromine, Chlorine, Fluorine, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Hydrogen D. Sigma Bonds are when atoms have single covalent bonds E. Pi Bonds are when atoms have double or triple covalent bonds F. Lewis Structures are used to describe these bonds G. XI. Chemical Reactions A. Evidence of a reaction: Light, Color, Gas (Bubbles), Heat B.
