Atoms 
Atoms are indivisible (Cannot be broken down) 
 
Protons, Neutrons and Electrons are subatomic particles 
 
Protons (+ve): Positive Charge 
Neutron - No Charge 
Electrons (-ve): Negative Charge 
 
JJ Thompson:  
Plum Pudding Model, discovered Electrons 
 
James Chadwick:  
Discovered Neutrons 
 
Ernest Rutherford:  
Gold Foil Experiment, discovered Proton and Nucleus, contributed to 
the model of the atom 
 
 
Atom = Proton + Neutron + Electron 
Nucleus = Proton + Neutron 
 
Electrons has NO MASS 
Neutron & Proton has MASS 
 
Number Of Protons = Number Of Electrons 
 
 
 
 
 

Elements & Periodic Table 
There are ​118 Elements​ in a periodic table
...
 
Atomic Number: Number Of Protons and Electrons 
Mass Number: Total Number Of Protons And Neutrons in the atom
...
 
 
 
Properties: 
- Soft 
- Shiny 
- React with water vigorously 
- Conduct electricity well 
 
 
Reaction: 
- Metal + water -> Metal hydroxide + hydrogen gas 
Eg: Sodium + Water -> Sodium hydroxide + hydrogen gas 
 
 
Test for an alkali solution: 
- Using Litmus Paper 
- Universal Indicator 
 
 

Group 7 Elements 
Known as ‘Halogens’ 
They are ‘Non-Metals’ 
 
 
As you go down the group…… 
Reactivity decreases 
Boiling Point increases 
Melting Point increases 
 
 
They are gases at room temperature and Bromime is a liquid
...
 
They are inert (Unreactive) and can’t form any compound
