GUIDE QUESTIONS
Guide Questions:
1.What makes up an atom?
2.What are the subatomic particles of an atom?
3.Which subatomic particle is the lightest?
4.Which subatomic particle is the heaviest?
5.Which subatomic particles have almost the same
mass?
GUIDE QUESTIONS
6.How can we know that atoms exist and understand
them if they are invisible?
7. Atoms were thought to be indivisible (not able to be
broken down). We now know that they are made of
smaller particles. Should we still think of them as the
building blocks of matter?
8. If scientists found a new particle that they thought
was the smallest part of an atom, how could they be
sure that there wasn’t anything smaller?
9.Can you think of anything that is not made of atoms?

The term “proton” is a Greek word that means
“first.” Ernest Rutherford first used the term in 1920
to describe the nucleus of hydrogen. Although
protons weren’t named until the 20th century, the
existence of the proton was theorized in 1815 by
William Prout.

Recap
Atoms are composed of
-protons – positively charged
particles
-neutrons – neutral particles
-electrons – negatively charged
particles

Protons and neutrons are located in the Atomic


nucleus. Electrons are found in Structure
orbitals/shells surrounding the
nucleus.

Atomic Mass
What is an atomic number and atomic mass?

Atomic Number The atomic number of an


element describes the
total number of protons in
its nucleus

No. of electrons= No.


of protons
The sum of protons and
neutrons is the atom’s
atomic mass.
Atomic Mass
1. How many protons does it
have? 6 ( atomic number)
2. How many electrons does it
have? 6 ( no. of proton = no. of eletrons )
3. How many neutrons does it
have? 6 ( atomic mass – no. of protons )

How are atoms important in everyday Life?)
01
Without atoms, there would
not be a functioning world.
Atoms make up matter and 02
matter makes up
everything in the world. Oxygen atoms are in the air and
keep up alive because we need
oxygen in order to breathe.

Hydrogen atoms and
Carbon Dioxide atoms are oxygen atoms bond
released from our bodies together to form H2O
and plants take in the CO2 which is water.Water
.So that they can is so important in the

cannot survive.

Lead atoms bond together Copper atoms ,
and they make up the aluminum atoms ,
lead that we use as a nickel atoms etc , all
pencil. make up metal which
is used for a variety of
things in everyday life.
Engineers use their knowledge of the structure of atoms to
do everything from developing new materials (non-stick
coatings for frying pans, safer football helmets, carbon fiber
for faster cars and lighter prosthetics and bicycles, etc.) to
harnessing the energy of nuclear reactions for electricity.
They also create machines, such as lasers, to artificially
create elements. Lasers are used in the medical and dental
fields, as well as in various types of industry. Many of the
technologies from the old series Star Trek are real
possibilities for the future, as scientists and engineers learn
more about the makeup of matter.
