002 Week 1 Module 2

The document discusses how the concept of atomic number led to the synthesis of new elements in the laboratory. It explains that Henry Gwyn-Jeffreys Moseley demonstrated that the atomic number, which is the number of protons in an atom, determines an element's properties. This discovery allowed scientists like Ernest Rutherford to use particle accelerators to transmute one element into another by changing its number of protons. New elements formed after synthesis could be identified and placed in the periodic table based on their unique atomic number.

Q3 - Week 2 : Concept of the Atomic
Number that Led to the Synthesis of
New Elements in the Laboratory
Quarter 3 Week 2
At the end of the session you will be able to;

• explain how the concept of atomic number led to


the synthesis of new elements in the laboratory
• Identify the elements formed after the process of
synthesis
• Realize the importance of atomic number in
identifying the new element’s identity in the periodic
table

•The atomic
number is the
number of
protons
(positively
charged particles
in an atom)
Key points
•Henry Gwyn – Jeffreys
Moseley, an English
physicist demonstrated
that the atomic number,
the number of protons in
an atom determines
most of the properties of
an element.
Key points
•In 1919, Ernest
Rutherford successfully
carried out a nuclear
transmutation reaction –
a process of
transforming one
element or isotope into
another element

• A particle accelerator
is a device that is used
to speed up the
protons to overcome
its repulsion between
the protons and the
target atomic nuclei
by using magnetic and
electric fields.
Key points
•Elements with
atomic numbers
greater than 92
(atomic number of
Uranium) are called
transuranium
elements.

created a
classification of
elements based on
their atomic
weight.

work to solve the
problems with
Mendeleev’s
periodic table
Key points
•He used x-ray
spectroscopy in
identifying elements
– shooting electrons
and analyzing the x-
rays emitted
