from fusion of H nuclei to form He).
Group 2. When could a protostar has become a main sequence star? (Answer:When the contraction of the protostarstops,
gravitational equilibrium is reached, the protostar has become a main sequence star).What causes the star to become red?
(Answer: When He begins burning, the outer temperature of the star becomes colder than the core, thus causes the star
to become red).
Group 3. Why does production of elements stops when iron is formed? (Answer: Fe is the most stable nuclei, it is unable to
undergo nuclear reactions). What happens to a red giant when its light elements like H & He are consumed in nuclear
reactions? (Answer: The core of the star starts to collapse & the star will finally explode).
Group 4. Explain the fate or destiny of low-mass star and & a massive star. (Answer: In a low-mass star [with mass less
than twice the Sun’s mass], there is not enough mass for a carbon fusion to occur. The star’s fuel is depleted, & over time,
the outer material of the star is blown off into space. The only thing that remains is the hot & inert carbon core. The star
becomes a white dwarf.A massive star on the other hand, has enough mass such that temperature & pressure increase to a
point where carbon fusion can occur. The star goes through a series of stages where heavier elements are fused in the core
& in the shells around the core. The element oxygen is formed from carbon fusion; neon from oxygen fusion; magnesium
from neon fusion: silicon from magnesium fusion; and iron from siliconfusion. The star becomes a multiple-shell red giant).

Nucleosynthesis: The Beginning of Elements (Formation of Heavier Elements during Star Formation & Evolution)
Objectives: 1. To give evidence for & describe the formation of heavier elements during star formation & evolution.
Review: How were the light elements – hydrogen, helium, lithium, & beryllium, were formed during the big bang nucleosynthesis?
Learn about it!
Elements heavier than beryllium are formed through stellar nucleosynthesis. Stellar nucleosynthesis is the process by which elements
are formed within stars. The abundances of these elements change as the stars evolve.
Evolution of Stars
The star formation theory proposes that stars form due to the collapse of the dense regions of a nebular cloud. As the cloud collapses,
the fragments contract to form a stellar core called protostar. Due to strong gravitational force, the protostar contracts & its temperature
increases. When the core temperature reaches about 10 million K, nuclear reactions begin. The reactions release positrons & neutrinos
which increase pressure & stop the contraction. When the contraction stops, gravitational equilibrium is reached, & the protostar has
become a main sequence star.
In the core of a main sequence star, hydrogen is fused into helium via the proton-proton chain. When most of the hydrogen in the core
is fused into helium, fusion stops, & the pressure in the core decreases. Gravity squeezes the star to a point that helium & hydrogen
burning occur. Helium is converted to carbon in the core while hydrogen is converted to helium in the shell surrounding the core. The
star has become a red giant.
However, the fate of a massive star is different. A massive star has enough mass
such that temperature & pressure increase to a point where carbon fusion can
occur. The star goes through a series of stages where heavier elements are
fused in the core & in the shells around the core. The element oxygen is formed
from carbon fusion; neon from oxygen fusion; magnesium from neon fusion:
silicon from magnesium fusion; and iron from silicon fusion. The star becomes a
multiple-shell red giant.
Page 2. The Formation of Heavier Elements during Star Formation and Evolution
A younger yellow star made up of H is fueled by the energy released from fusion of H nuclei to form He. Once enough He-4 is produced, these nuclei
become concentrated at the core of the star, thus the core of the star becomes hotter. H fusion continues in a “shell” surrounding the He core as
shown below.
Series of nuclear fusion in the formation of elements during star formation & evolution:
a. 11H + 11H 21He +01e b. 21H + 11H 32He + ooyc. 32He + 32He 42He + 11H + 11H
When the core reaches the temperature enough for He fusion to occur, He burning begins. The outer temperature then becomes colder than the
core, which causes the star to become red. From this fusion, Beryllium-8 (Be-8) is formed. Another He-4 fuses with Be-8 to form C12. These
reactions happen in the He fusion shell, beneath the H fusion shell.
d. .42He + 42He 8
4Be e. 84Be + 42He 12
6C
The C nuclei produced become more concentrated at the center, as He was earlier. This produces a carbon core, that when it reaches a certain
temperature to allow carbon fusion, it produces neon (Ne) within the carbon fusion shell. Nuclear reactions occurring in this shell include the ff.:
f. 126C + 126C 20 4
10Ne + 2He g. 126C + 126C2310Na + 21H
Neon (Ne) then becomes concentrated at the core, then undergoes fusion to produce oxygen (O).
h. 2010Ne + 00y 168Na + 42He i. 2010Ne + 42He2412Mg + 00y
When the Oxygen becomes concentrated at the core, fusion continues, producing silicon (Si). j. 168O + 168O2814Si + 42He
Lastly, the fusion of Si-28 produces radioactive Nickel-56 (Ni-56), which will then decay to iron. More nuclear fusions happen between different
nuclei to form the other elements. However, the production of elements stops when iron is formed. Since Fe is the most stable nuclei, it is unable to
undergo nuclear reactions. A great amount of energy is produced, enough to fuel more nuclear reactions; however, in order to produce elements
heavier than iron, energy input is necessary. At this point, the star has already exhausted its nuclear fuel.As the red giant star exhausted the nuclear
fuel of light elements, its core started to collapse & eventually led to the explosion of the star.
Pieces of Evidence
1. The discovery of the interstellar medium of gas & dust during the early part of the 20th century provided a crucial piece of evidence to support the
star formation theory. Other pieces of evidence come from the study of different stages of formation happening in different areas in space & piecing
them together to form a clearer picture.
2. Energy in the form of Infrared Radiation (IR) is detected from different stages of star formation. For instance, astronomers measure the IR
released by a protostar& compare it to the IR from a nearby area with zero extinction. Extinction in astronomy means the absorption & scattering of
electromagnetic radiation by gases & dust particles between an emitting astronomical object & an observer. The IR measurements are then used to
approximate the energy, temperature, & pressure in the protostar.
Key Points
1. Stellar nucleosynthesis is the process by which elements are formed within stars.
2. The star formation theory proposes that stars form due to the collapse of the dense regions of a molecular cloud.
3. A protostar is a stellar core formed when the fragments of a collapsed molecular cloud contract.
4. A main sequence star is formed when gravitational equilibrium is reached during the hydrogen fusion in a protostar.
5. A red giant is a star that has used up its hydrogen supply in the core and switched into the thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen in
the shell surrounding the core.
6. A massive star becomes a multiple-shell red giant when the elements oxygen, neon, magnesium, silicon, and iron are formed in
its core together with carbon, helium, and hydrogen.
7. A supernova is a star that blows apart and releases a large amount of energy.
8. Evidence of star formation comes from studying IR emissions from the different stages of star evolution.

practicing new skills # 2 As the red giant star exhausted the nuclear fuel of light elements, its core collapses & eventually explodes.
The explosion of the star is called supernova. This violent explosion released huge amount of nuclear energy & produced,
through neutron capture and radioactive decay, other elements heavier than iron. Neutron capture can be as fast as a
fraction of a second or as slow as a few million years. This process occurs as a seed nucleus captures neutrons, forming
heavier isotopes of element that can either be stable or radioactive. Stable isotopes can continue to capture neutrons &
form other heavier isotopes of the said nuclei. Unstable radioactive isotopes, however, will undergo beta decay, producing
an isotope of a new element. For seed nuclei with relatively few neutrons (from iron to bismuth), neutron capture occurs so
slowly that the beta decay of the product isotope happens before it can capture another neutron. This is referred to as the
slow process or s-process. An example of this is the formation of Copper (Cu) & Zinc (Zn) nuclei (Ni) from nickel nucleus.

Nucleosynthesis: The Beginning of Elements (The Nuclear Fusion Reactions in Stars)
Objective; To explain how elements are formed in stars through nuclear fusion.
What are the nuclear fusion reactions that happen in the stellar cores?
Learn about it!
Stellar nucleosynthesis is the process by which elements are formed in the cores and shells of the stars through
nuclear fusion reactions. Nuclear fusion is a type of reaction that fuses lighter elements to form heavier ones. It
requires very high temperatures and pressures. It is the reaction that fuels the stars since stars have very high
temperatures and pressures in their cores.
Hydrogen is the lightest element and the most abundant in space. Thus, the formation of heavier elements starts with
hydrogen. Hydrogen burning is the stellar process that produces energy in the stars. There are two dominant
hydrogen burning processes, the proton-proton chain and carbon-nitrogen-oxygen (CNO) cycle.
Learn about it!
Proton-Proton Chain (see figure below)
The proton-proton chain is a series of thermonuclear
reactions in the stars. It is the main source of energy
radiated by the sun and other stars. It happens due to the
large kinetic energies of the protons. If the kinetic energies
of the protons are high enough to overcome their
electrostatic repulsion, then proton-proton chain
proceeds.
The sequence proceeds as follows:
The chain starts when two protons fuse. When the fused
proton breaks, one proton is transmuted into a neutron.
The proton and neutron then pairs, forming an isotope of
hydrogen called deuterium.
Another proton collides with a deuterium forming a
helium-3 nucleus and a gamma ray.
Finally, two helium-3 nuclei collide, and a helium-4 is created with the release of two protons.

E.Discussing new concepts & Learn about it!:Neutron capture can either be slow or rapid.
practicing new skills # 2 Slow neutron capture or s-process happens when there is a small number of neutrons. It is termed slow because the rate of
neutron capture is slow compared to the rate of −10β decay. Therefore, if a −10β decay occurs, it almost always occurs
before another neutron can be captured.
Rapid neutron capture or r-process, on the other hand, happens when there is a large number of neutrons. It is termed rapid
because the rate of neutron capture is fast that an unstable nucleus may still be combined with another neutron just before it
undergoes −10β decay. The r-process is associated with a supernova. The temperature after a supernova is tremendously
high that the neutrons are moving very fast. Because of their speed, they can immediately combine with the already heavy
isotopes. This kind of nucleosynthesis is also called supernova nucleosynthesis.
Learn about it! :Proton Capture
Proton capture (p-process) is the addition of a proton in the nucleus. It happens after a supernova, when there is a
tremendous amount of energy available. It is because the addition of a proton to the nucleus is not favorable because
of Coulombic repulsion, which is the repulsive force between particles with the same charge.
Proton capture produces a heavier nucleus that is different from the seed nucleus.

Nucleosynthesis: The Beginning of Elements (How Are Elements Heavier than Iron Formed)
Objective:To describe how elements heavier than iron are formed.
Definition of Terms: Nucleosynthesis is the process by which new nuclei are formed from pre-existing or seed nuclei.
Review: In the previous lessons, you have learned about the types of nucleosynthesis. The big bang nucleosynthesis produced hydrogen and
helium, whereas the stellar nucleosynthesis produced elements up to iron in the core of the stars.
Preview Question: If the stellar nucleosynthesis produced only elements up to iron, then what type of nucleosynthesis produced the elements
heavier than iron?
Learn about it! :The stellar nucleosynthesis produced nuclei that are heavier than helium-4 by nuclear fusion. It started by fusing two helium-4
nuclei to form beryllium-8 accompanied by a release of energy in the form of gamma radiation (γ). This process continues until nickel-56. However,
nickel-56 is unstable and undergoes positron (+10β) emission. Recall that positron emission results in a nucleus with lower atomic
number.ZAx→Z−1Ay+ +10β: A is mass number, Z is atomic number, x is the seed nucleus, and y is the new nucleus formed.
Nickel-56 radioactively decomposes to a more stable iron-56 through subsequent emission of two positrons.
28
56
Ni→2756Co++10β→2656Fe++10β
Learn about it! :The fusion reactions cannot produce nuclei higher than iron-56 because fusion reaction becomes unfavorable. This is
because the nuclear binding energy per nucleon, the energy that holds the nucleus intact, decreases after iron-56. Therefore, different pathways are
needed for the synthesis of heavier nuclei.Synthesis of heavier nuclei happens via neutron or proton capture processes.
Neutron Capture
In neutron capture, a neutron is added to a seed nucleus. The addition of neutron produces a heavier isotope of the element.
Z x+0 n→Z y
A 1 A+1
26 Fe+301n→26 Fe
56 59
For example, iron-56 captures three neutrons to produce iron-59.
The generated isotope, when unstable, undergoes beta (−10β) decay. This decay results in an increase in the number of protons of the nucleus by
Z x→Z y+−1 β
A +1A 0
1. Hence, a heavier nucleus is formed.
Beta decay results in the formation of a new element. For example, the unstable iron-59 undergoes beta decay to produce cobalt-59.
26 Fe→27 Co+−1 β

Ideas of Ancients Greeks on elements.
Some Greek philosophers believed that there was only one element that made up all materials. Anaximenes thought that it
was air; Heraclitus supposed it was fire; Thales believed that it was water; and Xenophanus assumed it was earth.
Empedocles proposed that all four – air, fire, water, and earth, were the primordial substances.
Plato first used the term element. He treated the four elements geometrically and named them Platonic solids.
Aristotle described each element using the qualities hot, cold, wet, or dry. He also added a fifth element, aether.

The Atomic Structure and the Chemical Elements (The Ideas of the Ancient Greeks on the Atom)
Objective; To describe the ideas of the Ancient Greeks on atoms.
Can matter be infinitely divided into smaller particles?
Learn about it!
The Indivisible Atom: Democritus of Abdera (460 - 370 B.C.)& his teacher Leucippus of Miletus (c.500 B.C.) were Greek scholars who
believed that matter could be divided into tiny particles until such point where it can no longer be divided anymore. They became the
first proponents of the atomic theory. Their early ideas on atoms are summarized below.
1. All matter is made up of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms, which come from the Greek word atomos meaning uncuttable. The
atoms are indestructible, impenetrable, and unchangeable.
2. The atoms make up the universe as they are continuously moving in a “void” that surrounds them, repelling each other when they
collide, or combining into clusters.
3. Atoms are completely solid which means that there is no void or empty space inside that will make them prone to disintegration or
destruction.
4. Atoms are homogeneous in nature. They have no internal structures.
5. Atoms come in different shapes and sizes.
These proposed ideas about atoms were supported by some Greek philosophers but were strongly opposed by Aristotle.
Learn about it!
Aristotle's Opposing View on Atoms: Aristotle, a Greek philosopher, had a different view on atoms. He disregarded the existence of
atoms proposed by Leucippus and Democritus. He did not believe that matter is a collection of atoms. Instead, he believed that
everything in the universe is made up of the four elements, air, fire, water, and earth. He stated that believing in atoms would mean
putting restriction on the gods, who have the power to divide elements smaller than the atom.
Aristotle's beliefs greatly flourished especially in the Middle Ages in Europe, where Roman Catholics were strongly influenced by his
ideas. They believed that ideas about the atoms equated to Godlessness. Thus, the whole concept of the atom was dismissed for
centuries. However, the Greeks' concept of atoms and even Aristotle's arguments were rediscovered in France at the start of the
Renaissance period. The theory of Aristotle was proven incorrect, & Democritus' & Leucippus' theory on the existence of atoms was
proven right.

In 1897, John Thomson presented that electrons have negative charge. Thomson
proposed the “plum pudding” model of an atom, figure 1.5.
In 1911, Ernest Rutherford, from his experiment of scattering alpha particles using gold
foil, established that the nucleus is very dense, very small, & positively charged. He also
concluded that electrons are located outside the nucleus (figure 1.6).
Figure 1.5. “Plum pudding”
The Protons & Neutrons. The positively charge particle in the nucleus is called the protons. The
magnitude of each proton is of the same magnitude of an electron which is -1.6022 x 10-19
coulombs. Each proton weighs as much as 1.67262 x 10-24 grams.
In 1932, James Chadwick discovered neutral subatomic particles, which he named
neutrons.Chadwick concluded that the radiation consisted of neutral particles that are slightly
heavier than protons, & are together with protons in
the nucleus.

The Atomic Structure and the Chemical Elements (Discovery of the Structure of the Atom its Subatomic Particles)
Objective: At the end of this lesson, you should be able to identify the main ideas in the discovery of the structure of the atom and its subatomic
particles.
Review: In the previous lessons, you have learned that matter is composed of atoms.
What is the structure of the atom?
Learn about it!
Greek philosophers Democritus and Leucippus developed the idea that all matter is composed of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms. However,
their atomic theory was based only on assumptions. It was not until the early 1800s that experiments were performed to develop models for the
structure of the atom.
In 1803, John Dalton, a British scientist, did experiments on mixtures of gases. He studied how the properties of individual gases affect the
properties of the mixtures of these gases. He developed the hypothesis that the sizes of the particles making up different gases must be different.
After several experiments, he concluded that all matter is composed of spherical atoms, which cannot be broken down into smaller pieces. He added
that all atoms of one element are identical to each other but different from the atoms of another element.
Learn about it!
Discovery of the Subatomic Particles
The Electrons in the Plum Pudding Model. In 1897, Joseph John Thomson, a British physicist, proposed an atomic model known as the plum
pudding model. His model consisted of negatively charged particles (plum) spread evenly throughout the positively charged material (pudding). The
small, negatively charged particles are called electrons.
The Protons in the Planetary Model. In the early 1900s, Ernest Rutherford, a New Zealand-born physicist, established the planetary model which
described the atom as small, dense, and has a positively charged core called the nucleus. Inside the nucleus are positively charged particles called
the protons. The nucleus is surrounded by negatively charged particles or electrons. The electrostatic attraction between electrons and nucleus
mimics the gravitational force of attraction between planets and the sun.
The Neutrons. In 1923, James Chadwick proved the existence of the neutron, which is also situated in the nucleus together with the proton. It has
the same mass as the proton but unlike the latter, it has no electric charge.

Recent Atomic Models
Bohr’s Atomic Model
Rutherford’s model showed that the electrons and nucleus have opposite charges which according to the laws of physics, will attract each other.
Thus, Rutherford's model would have electrons collapsing into the nucleus, making the atom unstable. Niels Bohr solved this problem by proposing
that the electrons orbit around the nucleus in set energy levels. An electron absorbs energy if it moves from lower to higher energy level, and it emits
energy if it returns to the lower energy level.
Quantum Mechanical Model
The quantum mechanical model of the atom states that a nucleus is surrounded by a cloud of electrons called orbitals. It explains that it
is impossible to determine the exact location of the electron at a given time, but one can find its probable location. It incorporates the
concept of Bohr’s model where the electrons move in one orbital to another by absorbing or emitting energy.

x
A different metals bombarded with electrons produced varying frequencies of x-rays. He
attributed these results to the differences in the positive charge in the nucleus of the

element – the atomic number which serves as the identity of an atom, see the
representation at the left.
X - element; A - atomic mass; Z - atomic number Example: C
Atomic mass = number of protons + number of neutrons number of protons = atomic number = 6
Atomic mass = atomic number + number of neutrons number of neutrons = number of protons = 6
Atomic mass = 6 + 6 = 12
Sample problem: 4020Ca is produced during the stellar evolution. How many protons, neutrons, & electrons are
there in one atom of 4020Ca.
Solution: number of protons = number of electrons = 20
number of neutrons = A – Z = 40 – 20 = 20

Dmitri Mendeleeve arranged the elements according to their atomic weights/atomic masses in 1869. He
paved the way to the construction of the periodic table. Moseley in 1913 confirmed the use of the atomic
number as the basis for the arrangement of elements in the periodic table. Before the discovery of some
elements, the periodic table had gaps, which led to scientists to think that there were still undiscovered
elements that should fill the gaps. Through time, discoveries of these elements were made, while some are
synthesized in the laboratory like radium which was made by Marie Curie from uranium.

E.Discussing new concepts & Ions.Ions unlike isotopes (isotopes are formed from nuclear reactions which involves the nucleus of an atom),
practicing new skills # 2 are made from chemical reactions where only electrons of the atom are involved. During chemical reaction, the
number of protons remains the same in the atomic nucleus, but the electrons may be lost or gained by another
atom. When an electron is lost, the atom is said to be cation with net positive charge while an atom that gained
electrons is said to be anion with net negative charge. The charge q of an ion is written as superscript at the
right hand side of the chemical symbol. See the symbol, AZXq .
The charge of an atom may be computed using the formula ,
q = number of protons – number of electrons

Part 2. For 5-7 min. Make a short explanation for the ff. statements of Dalton on atoms.
The 4postulates of Dalton’satomic theory that led to modern era of chemistry.
1.Elements are made up of small particles called, atoms.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2.In any given pure element, the mass & other properties of all atoms are the same. Atoms of different elements differ in mass & other properties.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
3.Compounds are made up of atoms of more than one element. The constituent atoms in a given compound are present in the same whole # ratio.
