Study Notes

Atomic Structure and Properties

  • Atoms are small, dense, indivisible spheres. They are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
  • The nucleus is positively charged, containing protons and neutrons. Electrons orbit the nucleus.
  • Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but a different number of neutrons.
  • Atomic number is the number of protons.
  • Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons.
  • An electron returning to a lower energy level emits energy.
  • An element's chemical properties are determined by its atomic structure.

Chemical Bonding

  • Chemical properties describe how a substance reacts or changes with other substances.
  • Sodium is highly reactive with water.
  • The most probable location of an electron in an atom is defined as an orbital.
  • Atoms share electrons (covalent bonding) to achieve a stable outer electron configuration.
  • Ionic bonding occurs when electrons are transferred between atoms, forming ions with opposite charges which attract.
  • Metallic bonding occurs in metals where electrons are shared among all atoms in the lattice.

Molecular Structure

  • Oxygen exists in diatomic (O2) and triatomic (O3) forms. These forms have differing structures and properties (e.g., stability).
  • Different molecular structures lead to diverse properties.
  • Polyatomic ions are groups of atoms with a net positive or negative charge (example: KCN).
  • A molecule with an asymmetrical distribution of charge is polar.

Atomic Mass and Isotopes

  • Different isotopes of an element have the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons.
  • Calculating atomic mass involves considering the mass and abundance of each isotope.

Atomic Models

  • Wave-mechanical model describes electron locations as orbitals.
  • Ground state electrons absorb energy to reach an excited state.
  • Electrons release energy as they move from excited states to ground states.

Ions and Ionic Radii

  • Ions form when atoms gain or lose electrons.
  • Ionic radius differs from atomic radius because of the added or subtracted electrons.
  • Noble gases have stable electron configurations, acting as a benchmark for other elements.

Compounds and Compounds Properties

  • Chemical formulas represent the types of elements and the ratio of atoms in a compound.
  • Empirical formula shows the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
  • Structural formula shows how atoms are arranged relative to one another in a molecule.
  • The chemical name for PbO2 is lead(IV) oxide.
  • Chemical compounds can be made of ionic or covalent bonds.

Mole Conversions

  • Moles are a unit of measurement relating atoms and compounds.
  • Elements in the same group often exhibit similar chemical properties due to similar electron configurations.

Other

  • The number of electron pairs shared between nitrogen atoms in a N2 molecule is 3.
  • Periodic table changes over time as more elements are added and their properties understood.
  • Specific elements are identified by atomic mass, abundance and their characteristics.
