C. Analysis You have discovered that matter is
made up to indivisible atoms and
there are no parts of it. However,
our scientists discovered that an
atom is made up of even smaller
particles

You do have any idea how many According to modern

subatomic particles are present research, there are 36
inside of an atom? subatomic particles present
inside of an atom.

Very Good Class!

But in this level we are not going to
study these 36 subatomic particles,
but rather we’ll focus with these
subatomic particles. The 3 subatomic particles
Are you familiar with the three (3) are proton, neutron and
subatomic particles? electron

Good Job class!

What is a proton, neutron and Proton is the positively

electron class? Do you have any charged particles in an
idea on what are their differences? atom while electron is the
negatively charged
particles and the neutron is
The easy way for you to remember the neutral charge of an
the subatomic particles of an atom atom
is to remember “PEN”
“P” stands for proton
“E” stands for electron and
“N” for neutron

Understand Class? Yes, Ma’am!

Atoms are best described through

different atomic models.

This started by John Dalton in the

year 1803 with his theory of
chemical postulates which involves
the following postulates.
1. Elements consist of
indivisible small particles
2. All atoms of the same
element are identical;
different elements have
different types of atom
3. Atoms can neither be
created nor destroyed.
After Dalton’s Theory, more
scientists became interested in the
discovery and development of new
methods and equipment that could
further prove the nature of matter.
The scientists were able to confirm
the existence of subatomic
particles.

In 1897, Joseph John Thompson

led to the discovery of the aletrin
using the cathode ray experiment.

He revised the atomic theory and

proposed the raisin bread atomic
model. According to him, an atom
is positively charged sphere with
loosely embedded electrons.
This is somehow similar to a kind It is a bread with embedded
of food, right class? Do you have raisins.
any idea?

Yes class, and it was later on they

called it the plum pudding Model.
In 1910, Ernest Rutherford together
with Giger Marsden carried out his
famous experiment using helium
nuclei in a sheet of a gold foil What They found out that most
did they found out? of the helium nuclei passed
through the foil. A small
number were deflected and
some helium nuclei bound
straight back

Rutherford’s new evidence allowed

him to propose more detailed
model with the central nucleus. He
suggested that the positive charge
was all in a central nucleus with
this holding the electrons in place
by electrical attraction.

Until someone put interest on

Rutherford’s idea, do you have any He is Niels Bohr
idea who is he?
Very Good! He refine Rutherford’s
idea by adding that electron were
orbit like planets orbiting the sun
Niels Bohr proposed a model of the
atom in which the electron was able
to occupy only certain around the
nucleus

It was called the Niel’s

Later this idea, what model called? Bohn Model of the
Planetary Model.
Good Job Class!

As time goes by, in 1926 Erwin

Schrodinger discovered that
electrons move around the nucleus
in a cloud not orbits. Orbital help
us predict that area where we can
find electrons. the closer position to
the nucleus the higher the chance to
find electrons.
The structure of an atom contains 3
main areas
1. Nucleus- the central part of
an atom
2. Shells- the energy levels
around the nucleus
3. 99.99 Empty space- in
relation to the subatomic
particles of an atom

Now let’s move on and discuss the

atomic number and atomic mass of
each element in the periodic table.

How can we identify the difference It is by using the periodic

of atomic mass and atomic table. The Atomic number
number? is normally on the left most
part while the atomic mass
is either on the right
topmost part or below the
element symbol in name
depending on the periodic
table that we are using.
Amazing Class!

For example, the atomic number of

of element Helium is two (2) and
the atomic mass is 4.

Another example is the Carbon.

What is its atomic number? 6

How about its atomic mass? 12

Good Job Class!

Now, what is atomic number and Atomic number is the

atomic mass? number of protons in an
atom, while atomic mass is
the number of protons and
neutrons and an atom.

For you to master, let’s try this.

Kindly prepare your periodic table.
Answer the following questions by
stating true if the statement is
correct and false if it is not.

1. The atomic number of TRUE

Chlorine is 17

2. The atomic mass of FALSE, because the

Calcium is 20 atomic mass of calcium is
40
Impressive class!

Now, let’s study how to determine

and figure out the number of
protons, neutrons and electrons on
each element.

The calculate the numbers of

subatomic particles, atomic mass
and atomic number are very
important to determine the numbers
of the subatomic particles in an
atom.

As I mentioned a while ago, the

atomic number is the number of
protons in the nucleus of an atom.
Atomic mass is the total number of
protons in neutron

So how do we get the number of

protons?

Very Good! For example, the

element Sodium

the atomic number is 11, therefore The number of protons is

what is its proton? the same with the atomic
number. The proton of
Sodium is also 11

How about the number of The number of electrons is

electrons? equal to the number of
protons. if Sodium has 11
protons therefore it also has
11 electrons.
Good Job Class!

The number of neutrons is

How about the number of equal to the difference
neutrons? between the mass number
and the number of protons.
In our example Sodium has
11 protons and an atomic
mass of 23 therefore the
 difference of the two
numbers is 12.

Very Good!

To avoid confusion let’s have a

recap. using the given example, the
atomic number of Sodium is 11, the
atomic mass is 22.99 or rounded
into 23. The number of protons is
the same with the atomic number.
The number of electrons is equal to
the number of protons and the
neutron is equal to the difference
between the mass number and the
number of protons

Understood Class?

Good Job Class.

Yes, Ma’am!
D. Abstraction To Test if you really understood
our lesson, let’s fill in the blanks.

The number of protons is the same

with the___________. The number 1. Atomic number
of electrons is equal to the number
of ____________, and the 2. Protons
____________is equal to the
difference between the mass 3. Neutrons
number and the number of protons

Excellent Class!
