AQA A Level Chemistry - Atomic Structure

?
Suggested that all matter was made from indestructible atoms
John Dalton
1 of 26
Said some atoms are positive and some are negative. Calculated atomic weights
John Jacob Berzelius
2 of 26
Created the "plum pudding" model where electrons are in a sphere of positive charge
J J Thompson
3 of 26
Created the nuclear model where electrons orbit a positive nucleus. Done by gold foil experiment
Earnest Rutherford
4 of 26
Discovered that electrons are arranged in shells that orbit the nucleus and they determine reactivity. Protons form the nucleus
Niels Bohr
5 of 26
Discovered neutrons in the nucleus to stop protons repelling each other
James Chadwick
6 of 26
Has the same atomic number but a different atomic mass
Isotope
7 of 26
Average mass of one atom of an element divided by 1/12 the mass of one carbon-12 atom
Relative Atomic Mass
8 of 26
Average mass of one molecule divided by 1/12 the mass of one carbon-12 atom
Relative Molecular Mass
9 of 26
Have different numbers of electrons but the same number of protons
Ion
10 of 26
Holds 2 electrons in 1 orbital
S Subshell
11 of 26
Holds 6 electrons in 3 orbitals
P Subshell
12 of 26
Holds 10 electrons in 5 orbitals
D Subshell
13 of 26
Holds 14 electrons in 7 orbitals
F Subshell
14 of 26
An electron from 4s is promoted to 3d giving the formation [Ar] 4s1 3d5 which is more stable
Chromium
15 of 26
An electron from 4s is promoted to 3d giving the formation [Ar] 4s1 3d10 which is more stable
Copper
16 of 26
The number of protons in the nucleus, which attracts the electrons to it
Nuclear Charge
17 of 26
Electrons in each inner shell and subshell shields the outer electrons from the pull of the nucleus
Shielding
18 of 26
Nuclear charge minus shielding
Effective Nuclear Charge
19 of 26
Electrons in the same orbital repel each other as they are both negative, making them easier to remove
Electron Repulsion
20 of 26
The energy required to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of gaseous atoms
First Ionisation Energy
21 of 26
A beam of fast moving electrons is fired at a vaporised sample, knocking off electrons and turning molecules into ions
Electrospray Ionisation
22 of 26
The sample passes through an electric field of fixed strength (constant P.D.) which gives all the ions the same energy
Acceleration
23 of 26
The ions move freely through an area. Light, high charge ions are quickest
Ion Drift
24 of 26
The mass of an ion divided by its charge
Mass Charge Ratio
25 of 26
The ion hits a plate where an electron is transferred to the ion to make it an atom. This makes an electronic signal which is used to make a mass spectrum
Ion Detector
