Title: Unit 2: Atoms and Elements
Description: Topics:
Covered slides 25-56:

Separating Mixtures (color, shape, size), Magnet, filtration, distillation, centrifuge, chromatography

Periodic Table organizing principle...Mendeleev (atomic mass) vs. Mosely (atomic number)
             metals/nonmetals and metalloids
             groups (vertical share properties) vs periods (horizontal)

Parts of the Atom and (location, mass and charge) of each...protons, neutrons, electrons
Ions - charged particles
             cations are positively formed and come from metals losing electrons
             anions are negatively charged and come from nonmetals gaining electrons.

Atoms DO NOT lose protons.
If an atom gains or loses electrons it becomes an ION
If an atom gains neutrons it becomes an ISOTOPE of the same element (different mass)
If an atom gains protons it is undergoing TRANSMUTATION and is changing into another element.
Transmutation can only happen during a NUCLEAR REACTION.

Finally, we covered Average Atomic Mass calculations and did two examples.
AAM = (mass "A")(% "A") + (mass "B")(% "B") + ... In the homework packet you should be able to complete
             1) Classifying Matter WS
             2) Ions and Subatomic Particles WS
             3) Complete Atomic Designation WS
             4) The Periodic Table WS
             5) Isotopes and Average Atomic Mass WS







Discuss mass, charge, location of protons, neutrons and electrons.

Differentiate between atoms (elements), ions and isotopes by subatomic particles.

Write complete atomic designation and isotope notation.

The link below has both the worksheet and the ANSWER KEY for Atoms, Mass and the Mole

We have not introduced this concept yet in class.

Enjoy yourself.
These are the "good old days" you're going to miss in the years ahead.
