A. Preliminary activities

a. Greetings

Good morning/Good afternoon class, how are Good morning/ good afternoon Ma’am, we’re
you this day? good.

Good to hear that!

b. Prayer

almighty God. Amen.

c. Checking of attendance

kindly say present if your name was called. If

your classmate is absent, just say absent (yes ma’am)
d. Review

What did we tackle last meeting?

Ma’am we discussed about the development

of atom. The modern atomic theory
specifically about the observations of Robert
Boyle, Antoine-Laurent Laivosier, Joseph
Louis Proust, and John Dalton.

Very good! Who can summarize what we

have discussed?
ROBERT BOYLE (1627- 1691 )- Irish
philosopher and Alchemist– believed that
atoms exist even though they are not visible
to the naked eye.

- done experiment using J shape tube.

ANTOINE – LAURENT LAVOISIER (1743-

1794) -conducted experiments that supported
idea of the presence of atoms.

- conducted experiment on Sulfur and

phosphorus.

JOSEPH LOUIS PROUST ( 1754- 1826)

- a French Chemist. He Performed an

experiment using a copper carbonate as a
reactant in a decomposition reaction.

John Dalton ( 1766-1844) – a British chemist

- he introduces the first “table of elements”

and published the first true atomic theory in
1803.

Very good. Thank you so much.

OBSERVATIONS THAT LED TO

THE MODERN ATOMIC THEORY

THOMSON’S “PLUM PUDDING” model of

the Atom

Joseph John Thomson (1856-1940)-

discovered one component of the atom – the
electrons through the cathode ray tube
experiment.

- suggested that an atom consist of electrons

(plums) embedded inside a sphere of uniform
positive charge (pudding)

Whoo among you knows what is pudding?

Ma’am pudding is a sweet

or savory steamed dish made with flour.
Exactly! Why do you think J.J Thompson use
Pudding as a model of his study? Ma’am because Thomson realized that the
accepted model of an atom did not account
for negatively or positively charged particles.
Therefore, he proposed a model of the atom
which he likened to plum pudding. The
negative electrons represented the raisins in
the pudding and the dough contained the
positive charge.
Mr. Thomson used cathode rays tube in
determining electron. The cathode rays tube
have 2 charges plate the cathode(-) and
anode( +).
This is a cathode rays tube look like. The
cathode rays consisted of negatively charged
particles the electron.

Did you get it?

Yes Ma’am.
The next scientist is the British physicist
Ernest Rutherford.

Kindly read!

RUTHERFORD’S PLANETARY MODEL OF

THE ATOM

Ernest Rutherford (1871-1973) – he

concluded that Thomson’s model was
incorrect.

experimented with thin gold foil.

- For Rutherford if the plum pudding model
were indeed true, then the mass of the atom
must be spread out or distributed throughout
the atom. Thus if high velocity alpha particles
were to be bombarded at an atom, an
insignificant deflection of the alpha particles
must occur.
Thank you!
- To confirm this, Rutherford experimented
with a thin gold foil, which he bombarded with
alpha particles. He observed that most alpha
particles just passed through the film of gold
atoms. This implied that the atom is mostly
an empty space. However, a few alpha
particles rebounded directly backwards, other
did so at an angle.

Kindly read.

 An Alpha particle will be deflected

at an angle once it hits another
positive entity.
  Considering that the charges repel
each other, the slight deflection of
new alpha particles signified that
the nucleus of an atom is positively
charged.
Nucleus – carries most of the mass of the
atom.
- Such deflections were certainly
inconsistent with Thompson’s plum pudding
model. The backward deflections can occur if
an atom has a point wherein it’s mass is
concentrated in that area.
Because of that, Rutherford then arrived his
Planetary Model of Atom.

What is Planetary Model of Atom?

Who can explain to this picture?

Ma’am Planetary Model of atom- which

pictures the atom having all its positive
charges – the protons, in the nucleus and the
electrons surrounding the nucleus like planet
revolving around the sun.
>In this model, an atom is mostly empty
space, with electrons orbiting a positively
charged fixed nucleus in predictable paths.
Rutherford's model proposed that the
negatively charged electrons surround the
nucleus of an atom. He also claimed that the
electrons surrounding the nucleus revolve
around it with very high speed in circular
paths. He named these circular paths as
orbits.

Excellent!

Understood?
Yes, ma’am!

Any questions?
 None ma’am

E. GENERALIZATION:

Ok, who among you can summarize the

difference between the study of J.J
Thompson and Rutherford

Yes Mr.________
(student raise his hand)

Joseph John Thompson discovered one

component of the atom- the electrons through
the cathode ray tube experiment.

His study was named “PLUM PUDDING”

because Thomson realized that the accepted
model of an atom did not account for
negatively or positively charged particles.
Therefore, he proposed a model of the atom
which he likened to plum pudding. The
negative electrons represented the raisins in
the pudding and the dough contained the
positive charge.
Very good! How about Ernest Rutherford?

Ernest Rutherford he concluded that J.J

Thompson was incorrect. He experimented
with thin gold foil.

For Rutherford, if the plum pudding model

were indeed true, then the mass of the atom
must be spread out or distributed throughout
the atom. Thus, if high velocity alpha particles
were to be bombarded at an atom, an
insignificant deflection of the alpha particles
must occur. That’s why he arrived to his
Planetary Model Atom wherein the protons in
the nucleus and the electrons surrounding
the nucleus like planet revolving around the
sun. in this model, an atom is mostly empty
space, with electrons orbiting a positively
charged fixed nucleus in predictable paths.

Excellent! It seems that you understand our

topic for today. Let’s have an activity
F Application: answer the given questions.

1. He discovered that the atom consists electrons through the cathode rays tube experiment.
2. He conducted experiments, which led him to conclude that Thompson’s model was incorrect.
3. What did Thompson used as model of his study?
4. How about Rutherford?
5. He conducted gold foil experiment.

IV: Evaluation. Using a Venn Diagram, compare and contrast the observations or model of atom o J.J
Thompson and Ernest Rutherford.

V. Assignment: in a 1 whole sheet of paper, draw the PLUM PUDDING model of atom and
PLANETARY model of atom
