Hello everyone, my name is Alexey. This is an
0:02
intensive training center. Today we're going over
0:04
the structure of the atom. It's clear and understandable, no fluff. Let's
0:06
go. We don't think about it,
0:09
but all the objects that
0:12
surround us are made up of tiny
0:15
particles called atoms.
0:18
Today we'll look at the structure of the atom. An atom
0:21
consists of a nucleus and an electron shell. The
0:27
nucleus consists of particles called protons,
0:31
which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have a zero
0:34
charge, while electrons,
0:37
which have a negative charge, revolve
0:41
The number of protons, electrons, and
0:43
neutrons in different atoms varies, and you
0:46
need to be able to determine their number.
0:49
Let's practice doing this using a
0:51
carbon atom as an example. To determine
0:54
the number of protons, electrons, and
0:56
neutrons, we need to know the atomic
0:58
carbon, which is 6, and the mass
1:01
number, which is 12. The number of protons and electrons is
1:05
always equal to the atomic
1:08
number. If carbon has an atomic number of
1:10
six, then carbon will have six protons
1:14
and six electrons, and the number of neutrons
1:19
is determined as follows: we
1:24
number twelve from the mass number. Minus 6 is 6, which means
1:29
carbon will also have 6 neutrons, and
1:32
if everything is clear with protons and neutrons,
1:35
they are in the nucleus, then
1:38
you need to be able to arrange the electrons around the nucleus
1:44
energy levels, these are like pockets into
1:46
which carbon shove its
1:49
electrons, and carbon will have two such
1:53
energy levels, and you will say,
1:55
why two, how do we determine this?
1:57
Determined by the periodic table,
1:59
carbon is in the second period, this
2:04
means that it will have only two
2:06
energy levels. At the first
2:11
can always be a maximum of
2:14
only 2 electrons, and if we said that
2:17
carbon has only 6 electrons and at the
2:20
first energy level there are
2:23
two electrons, then at the second
2:26
energy level there will be 4
2:28
electrons, because in total there are 4 at the second,
2:32
barely at the first, this will be exactly 6
2:35
electrons, and you also need to be able to
2:39
display this on paper, and this is called an
2:41
electron diagram, it is made as
2:43
follows: you write carbon, then put a
2:47
circle, this means the nucleus of the atom, and put
2:51
here a charge of plus 6, thus you
2:53
show that carbon 6 protons
2:57
then put two such showers these are the
3:00
energy levels of carbon there are 2 1 2
3:05
on the first level 2 electronics and on the
3:10
second level 4 electrons with carbon
3:15
let's look at another example sulfur atom sulfur
3:18
has an atomic number 16 and a
3:25
we start as usual with the nucleus and determine
3:29
the number of protons and electrons and
3:31
neutrons the number of
3:33
protons and electrons will be
3:36
equal to the atomic number
3:38
therefore if the atomic number of
3:40
sulfur is 16 then the number of protons is 16 the number of
3:45
electrons will also be 16 but
3:48
we determine the number of neutrons as
3:50
follows from the mass number we
3:53
subtract the atomic number 32 -16 is 16
3:58
so sulfur will have 16 protons 16
4:01
electrons 16 neutrons
4:03
now we need to distribute the electrons into
4:07
layers around sulfur and it must be said that
4:10
sulfur will have three energy levels
4:13
why because sulfur is in the
4:17
third period means sulfur will have three
4:19
energy levels at the first
4:22
energy level we said with you is
4:24
always located A maximum of two electrons
4:27
at the second energy level of sulfur
4:31
will be in 8 electrons and you
4:34
at the second level there are a maximum of 8
4:38
electrons and if we count how many
4:41
electrons we have already filled, their
4:43
number will be 10 and if sulfur has only
4:46
16 electrons and we have already drawn 10, then it will be
4:51
logical to assume that at the
4:53
third energy level there
4:56
will be a total of 6 electrons left, that is,
5:00
in total you should have 16 yourself, you
5:04
can still check if you did everything correctly
5:06
in the periodic table
5:10
there are more groups and sulfur is in the
5:14
sixth group and the group shows
5:17
the number of electrons at the outer level, the
5:20
outer level of sulfur, accordingly,
5:23
here is the last third and here we have 6
5:26
electrons matching the group number,
5:28
which means we did everything correctly now we need to
5:30
make an electronic circuit of sulfur atoms
5:33
we write sulfur put a circle in a circle
5:38
write plus 16 show that the charge of the nucleus is
5:42
16 plus because protons have a
5:47
then we make three energy
5:50
levels along which the electrons will be distributed
5:52
at the first level a maximum of two
5:56
electrons can already be directly Just
5:57
count 2 in the second we distributed
6:00
one two three 4 5 six 7 8 electrons and
6:04
in the third energy level there are
6:07
6 electrons left with the gray atom, let's
6:13
consider the sodium atom and so the
6:16
nucleus and information on sodium from the periodic table
6:20
on 3 has an atomic number of 11 and a
6:23
mass number of 23 we say that the
6:26
atomic number is equal to the number of
6:28
protons and the number of electrons we
6:34
need to determine the neutrons for this
6:36
we subtract the atomic number from the mass number
6:39
23 -11 is 12 as you can see
6:44
the number of neutrons may not coincide
6:47
with the number of protons and electrons the
6:49
proton and neutron are in the nucleus
6:52
and the electrons need to be distributed around the
6:54
nucleus sodium will have three energy
6:57
levels as we determined this we see
7:00
sodium is in the third period
7:03
means it will have a total of three
7:05
energy levels across which the electrons will be
7:11
contains two electrons we say
7:15
at the first level there are a maximum of two
7:17
electrons the second energy level
7:20
contains 8 electrons if we count the
7:25
number of electrons that we have already
7:26
arranged on two levels then this
7:29
number There will be 10 if sodium has only
7:35
we have already placed 10 on the first two levels, then it will be logical to
7:39
assume that on the third level we will have
7:41
only one electronics engineer left and
7:48
there is one electron on the outer level, then sodium
7:51
should be in the first group,
7:52
let's check sodium is in the
7:55
first group, which means we did everything
7:57
correctly now we need to write the
8:00
electron diagram of the sodium atom we write
8:05
put a circle this is the nucleus write the charge in
8:09
nucleus contains one of the protons then we
8:12
make three energy levels on the
8:16
first level two electrons for 2 we
8:19
put in total on the second level the
8:22
maximum can be in total
8:24
no more fits and on the third level we have
8:27
one electronics engineer left we
8:30
have analyzed carbon which has two
8:32
levels sulfur with three levels and sodium
8:36
also with three levels but I want to
8:38
show you another atom which has
8:42
only one energy level and this is the
8:46
helium atom the nucleus and only one
8:51
energy level let's determine
8:54
the number of protons and electrons and
8:56
atomic number Helium has 2
8:59
electrons, so helium has
9:04
protons because the atomic number is
9:06
equal to the number of protons and electrons.
9:09
We determine neutrons by
9:11
subtracting the atomic number from the mass number. 4 minus
9:16
means we've killed two neutrons, and helium has only
9:22
If we look at the periodic table,
9:23
helium will be in the first
9:27
meaning it has one energy
9:30
level. If it has two electrons and
9:33
one energy level, then these same two electrons will be
9:36
level. Let's make an electron diagram from
9:42
write a circle, +2 charge of the nucleus, and one
9:47
energy level. We made it and
9:48
showed that there are two electrons there.
9:52
We've analyzed the structure of the atom.
