What is pHun Reactions? 🔗
- A unit about chemical reactions, atoms and ions!
- We will learn about atomic structure,
- ions,
- ionic compounds,
- acids and bases,
- and neutralisation reactions!
Glue in your learning outcomes sheet!
Ngā Whāinga Ako 🔗
- Use diagrams to represent the arrangement of protons, neutrons and electrons in atoms.
- Use the periodic table to find proton, neutron and electron numbers.
Write the date and ngā whāinga ako in your book
Atoms 🔗
- To understand chemistry, we need to first start by learning about atoms and their structure!
- Atoms have three sub-atomic particles:
- Protons
- Electrons
- Neutrons
- Pātai: With the person next to you, draw a diagram of an atom in your book (if you can!).
🔗
- Protons
- Exist in the nucleus of the atom
- Have a positive charge
- Electrons
- Exist in shells/orbitals around the nucleus
- Have a negative charge
- Neutrons
- Exist in the nucleus of the atom
- Have no charge (neutral)
- In a neutral atom/element there is the same number of protons and electrons
- The number of protons determines what element the atom is
- The atomic number is also known as the mass number
Glue in your periodic table at the front/back of your book so you can always find it!
Elements 🔗
- Which elements do you need to know?
- The first 20!
- From hydrogen to calcium!
- Open the link on Classroom and start practising!
Akoranga 2 Mahi Tuatahi 🔗
- Open to the back of your book
- Answer these questions without looking at your notes!
🔗
- Copy this diagram and fill in the missing labels
- What element is this?
- What is the symbol of this element?
- How many protons exist in the nucleus of this atom?
- How many electrons exist in the shells?
- What element has symbol K?
- What element has symbol Be?
- What is the symbol of aluminium?
- What is the symbol of argon?
- How many protons does carbon have?
Ngā Whāinga Ako 🔗
- Can use the periodic table to find proton, neutron & electron numbers
- Can define atomic and mass number
Write the date and ngā whāinga ako in your book
Atomic Number 🔗
The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom. Each element has a different number of protons.
Mass Number 🔗
The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
Your periodic table gives an average mass number. You should round it to the nearest whole number.
Pātai: Sodium 🔗
- How many protons does sodium have in its nucleus?
- How many neutrons does sodium have in its nucleus?
- How many electrons orbit around sodium?
- Why is there that many electrons?
Whakatika 🔗
- How many protons does sodium have in its nucleus?
11 - How many neutrons does sodium have in its nucleus?
$23-11=12$ - How many electrons orbit around sodium?
11 - Why is there that many electrons?
Because the number of protons and electrons are the same in neutral atoms.
Pātai: Phosphorous 🔗
- How many protons does phosphorous have in its nucleus?
- How many neutrons does phosphorous have in its nucleus?
- How many electrons orbit around phosphorous?
- Why is there that many electrons?
Whakatika 🔗
- How many protons does phosphorous have in its nucleus?
15 - How many neutrons does phosphorous have in its nucleus?
$31-15=16$ - How many electrons orbit around phosphorous?
15 - Why is there that many electrons?
Because the number of protons and electrons are the same in neutral atoms.
Tākaro/Game: Atom Battleships 🔗
- Collect a board from the front
- Pair up
- Follow the instructions on the board!
Ngohe/Task: Atoms 🔗
- Collect a sheet from the front of class
- Glue it into your book
- Put any extra un-crumpled paper into the green bin
- Use your periodic table to fill out the sheet
- Do not complete the last three columns!
