4. Subatomic Particles In the Nucleus: In the Electron Cloud: Protons: + charge Neutrons: no charge Mass of each:1 atomic mass unit (amu) Electrons: - charge Practically no mass
13. Exercise Draw a neutral lithium atom (protons, neutrons, electrons) with an mass number of 7
14. Isotope Atom with same # of protons but different # of neutrons (different mass number)
15. Radioactivity Too many or too few neutrons compared to protons UNSTABLE It wants to be sane (more stable)…so it gets rid of something! Emits a particle or energy Ever heard of uranium? Types of nucleus radiation that can be emitted: Alpha Beta Gamma
19. Electron cloud Electrons arranged in Energy level 1st level can hold 2 electrons 2nd energy level can hold 8 3rd…18 4th…32 Outermost electrons called valence electrons – chemical bonds
21. Exercise Draw a neutral carbon atom with an atomic mass of 12 Draw the electron cloud of Na Draw the electron cloud of Cl
22. Bonding As it turns out, atoms bond together for a very simple reason: atoms like to have full valence shells http://web.jjay.cuny.edu/~acarpi/NSC/5-bonds.htm http://www.kentchemistry.com/links/bonding/bondingflashes/bond_types.swf

24. Ions Atoms that are Not neutral # Electrons not equal to # protons Previous example of sodium and chlorine
