Chapter1: Introduction to the Atom

1. Basic Atomic Structure

Teacher’s Notes: Introduction to the Atom (Adobe Acrobat .pdf) Page 1 – Discusses subatomic particles, isotopes, and introduces the terms “atomic mass”, “mass number”, and “atomic number”.

Introduction to the Atom Additional Problems (Word)(html) – 10 problems: identify the element given p,n,e; write the hyphen notation of an element given p and n; identify the isotope given mass number and atomic number. Good review for the Chapter 1 Atomic Structure Evaluation.

The Atom Worksheet (Word)(html)

Introduction To Atom Structure Practice Worksheet (Word)(html)

Introduction To Atomic Structure Worksheet (Word)(html). This page will be handed in as a homework assignment.

2. Isotopes

Teacher’s Notes: Introduction to the Atom (Adobe Acrobat .pdf) Page 1. Listed above.

3. Average Molar Mass

Average Molar Mass Problems Tutorial (Word)(html) – This page discusses how to solve problems (text, page 84) 2.41, which requires you to solve the average mass per atom first, then convert to average mass per mole; and 2.43. Included are four additional problems, answers provided.

Teacher’s Notes: Additional Average Molar Mass Problems – Solutions (Adobe Acrobat .pdf) Page 1. This page displays the solutions to the four problems given on the back of the tutorial.

4. Chapter 1 Atomic Structure Evaluation Study Guide (Word)(html). This page outlines the exact content of this evaluation.
