  1. Chapter 3Atoms: Building Blocks of Matter

  2. Learning Objectives: • Explains the Law of Conservation of Mass, Law of the Definite Proportions, and the Law of Multiple Proportions • Summarize the 5 essential points of Daltons Atomic Theory • Explain the relationship between Daltons Atomic Theory and the Law of Conservation of Mass, the Law of definite Proportions, and the Law of Multiple Proportions

  3. FYI • The transformation of a substance or substances into one or more new substances – chemical reaction

  4. Law of Conservation of Mass • Mass is neither created or destroyed during ordinary chemical reactions or physical changes. • Regardless of where or how a pure chemical compound is prepared, it is composed of a fixed proportion of elements.

  5. Law of Definite Proportions • The fact that a chemical compound contains the same elements in the exact same proportions by mass, regardless of the size of the sample or source of the compound.

  6. Law of Definite Proportions • Ex. Sodium Chloride, ordinary table salt • ALWAYS : 39.34% by mass Sodium and 60.66% by mass Chlorine

  7. Law of Multiple Proportions • If two or more different compounds are composed of the same two elements, then the ratio of the masses of the second element combined with a certain mass of the first element is always a ratio of small whole numbers

  8. Law of Multiple Proportions • Example: Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide

  9. Dalton’s Atomic Theory • Dalton’s Atomic Theory was created by an English school teacher John Dalton • His theories were based on explanations for the laws of conservation of mass, law of definite proportions, and law of multiple proportions. • Dalton said “all elements are composed of atoms, and only whole numbers of atoms can combine to form compounds.”

  10. Daltons Atomic Theory can be summarized by the following 5 statements.

  11. 1. • All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms.

  12. 2. • Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties; atoms of different elements differ in size, mass, and other properties.

  13. 3. • Atoms CANNOT be subdivided, created, or destroyed.

  14. 4. • Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole number ratios to form chemical compounds.

  15. 5. • In a chemical reaction, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged.

  16. Daltons Atomic Theory/Law of Conservation of Mass • Chemical reactions involve the separation, combination, and rearrangement of atoms and during that process atoms are not subdivided, created, or destroyed.

  17. Modern Atomic Theory • Daltons Atomic Theory has been modified to explain new observations • All matter is composed of atoms • Atoms of any one element differ in properties from atoms of another element remain unchanged.
