Chemistry
AS 2014-2015
Unit 1
Topic 1
1.1
Atoms
Nucleus
Protons
Sub-atomic particle with + charge
Neutrons
Neutral charge sub-atomic particle
Electrons
Sub-atomic particle with - charge.
Orbits the nucleus
Element
Substance can't be broken down chemically into simpler substances
Atomic Number
Number of Protons in an atom of an element
Mass Number
The number of neutrons plus the number of protons in nucleus
SMALLEST COMPLETE UNIT OF ELEMENT. CONSISTS OF NUCLEUS AND ELECTRONS
Isotopes
ATOMS OF THE SAME ELEMENT WITH THE SAME ATOMIC NUMBER BUT WITH DIFFERENT NUMBER OF NEUTRONS GIVING THEM DIFFERENT MASS NUMBERS
Physical Properties
Properties which don't involve the chemical nature of the element or compound
Chemical Properties
Properties which affect the way in which an element or compound reacts with other substances
some of isotopes's nuclei are unstable and undergo radioactive decay.
Unstable
Forces that make up the nucleus are unbalanced and there is an excess of internal energy.
Be radioactive as unstable nucleus emits radiation to become stable
1.2
BONDING
Ionic Bonding
Chemical bond formed when atoms gain or lose electrons to form positive or negative ions
Loss or gain in electrons give the ion a complete outer shell of electrons
ION
An atom which has lost or gained electrons to take a positive or negative charge.
ionic bonds
Strong force attraction between oppositely charged ions formed during ionic bonding.
Electrostatic forces holding two oppositely charge ions together
Covalent bonding
Chemical bond formed when two or more atoms share electrons to gain a full, stable outer shell
Covalent bonds
Strong bonds which result from sharing electrons during covalent bonding
Representing chemical reactiosn
