The Structure of
The Atom
1. Atom
Warm up
• What is all matter made up? And to what do they look
like?
Joseph John
Thomson
(1856 – 1940)
He
discovered
the electron
in 1897
2. Thomson’s Atomic Model
Thomson’s atomic model
Solution
6C: 2) 4)
13Al: 2) 8) 3)

Chapter 3 2. Subatomic Particles
Chapter 3 3. Isotopes
• Isotope atoms have the same number of protons but
different number of neutrons.
Example 2
12 13 14
C C C atoms are isotopes.
6 6 6
All they have 6 protons but 6, 7 and 8 neutrons respectively.

Example 7
What is the number of protons and atomic mass
number of Zn.
? +2
35
?
Zn 28
Chapter 3 5. The Atomic Terminology
Solution
q=p-e
A=p+n
65 +2
+2 = p – 28
p = 30
A = 30 + 35
A = 65

Example 8
Cr+3 ion has 21 electrons and its atomic mass number is 52.
What is the number of neutrons for Cr ?
Solution
q=p-e 3 = p – 21 p = 24
A=p+n 52 = 24 + n n = 28

Example 9
Relative formula mass of CH4 and NO2
Example 10
Naturally occurring Ga consists of 60% 69Ga and 40% 71Ga.
What is the average mass of Ga?
Solution
Average Atomic Mass =
A1x% of 1st isotope + A2x% of 2nd isotope + ……
Example 11
Find the average atomic mass of Pb?
