    This document provides notes on atomic structure. It defines atoms as the building blocks of matter and notes they are found on the periodic table. It describes the main parts of an atom as the nucleus, which contains protons and neutrons, and electron shells, which contain electrons and give atoms their volume. Electromagnetic force and strong nuclear force are described as the two main forces that hold atoms together. Key aspects of the periodic table like atomic number, chemical symbol, atomic mass, and valence electrons are also summarized.

    What are atoms?


    The

    All

    building blocks of matter.

    atoms known as of today


    are found on Periodic table.

    ATOMIC
    STRUCTURE

    Parts of an Atom

    1. Nucleus (mostly all the mass found


    here)
    a. Proton (+) Positive charge
    b. Neutron (0) neutral charge

    2. Electron Shells

    also called energy levels &

    orbitals

    electrons (-) negative charge

    make up the volume of the atom

    What holds
    an Atom together?

    TWO FORCES
    1. Electromagnetic force
    Like charges REPEL (-,-) or (+,+)
    Opposite charges ATTRACT ( +, -)

    Ex: ATOM, magnet


    2. Strong nuclear force

    Atomic Number tells you # of protons


    (+) in the nucleus.

    # Protons (+) = # of Electrons(-)


    in a neutral atom

    # of Neutrons Subtract the Atomic #


    from atomic mass

    Valence Electrons- # of electrons in


    the outermost shell of the atom
    used

    in bonding of atoms

    Group

    # on Periodic table
    tells you how many valence eyou should have

    1st shell can hold up


    to 2 electrons (e-)

    ATOMIC STRUCTURE

    2nd shell can hold


    up to 8 electrons (e-)
    3rd shell can hold
    up to 8 electrons

    1st shell
    2nd shell

    3rd shell
