Atomic and Molecular Structure

  1. The periodic table displays the elements in increasing atomic number and shows how periodicity of the physical and chemical properties of the elements relates to atomic structure. As a basis for understanding this concept:
    1. Students know how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its atomic number and atomic mass.
    2. Students know how to use the periodic table to identify metals, semimetals, nonmetals, and halogens.
    3. Students know how to use the periodic table to determine the number of electrons available for bonding.
    4. Students know the nucleus of the atom is much smaller than the atom yet contains most of its mass.
    5. * Students know how to relate the position of an element in the periodic table to its quantum electron configuration and to its reactivity with other elements in the table.
    6. * Students know the experimental basis for Thomson's discovery of the electron, Rutherford 's nuclear atom, Millikan's oil drop experiment, and Einstein's explanation of the photoelectric effect.
    7. * Students know the experimental basis for the development of the quantum theory of atomic structure and the historical importance of the Bohr model of the atom.
    8. * Students know that spectral lines are the result of transitions of electrons between energy levels and that these lines correspond to photons with a frequency related to the energy spacing between levels by using Planck's relationship (E = hv).
