Study Notes
Atomic Structure
- Atomic number: number of protons in an atom
- Atomic mass: total number of protons and neutrons in an atom
- Number of protons = number of electrons
- Number of neutrons = atomic mass - atomic number
- Atomic structure consists of protons, neutrons, and electrons
Isotopes
- Isotopes: atoms of the same element with the same atomic number but different atomic mass
- Isotopes have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons
- Relative atomic mass calculation: weighted average of the atomic masses of the isotopes
Chemical Bonding
- Ion: a charged atom formed by losing or gaining electrons
- Classification of ions: cation (positive ion) and anion (negative ion)
- Ionic bond: formed between a metal and a non-metal by the transfer of electrons
- Ionic bond diagram: dot cross diagram and outer shell diagram
Covalent Bonding
- Covalent bond: formed between two non-metals by sharing electrons
- Covalent bond diagram: dot cross diagram and outer shell diagram
- Properties of covalent compounds: differ from ionic compounds
Chemical Calculations
- Relative molecular mass (Mr): sum of the atomic masses of the atoms in a molecule
- Moles: amount of substance that contains Avogadro's number of particles
- Molar mass: mass of one mole of a substance
- Molar volume: volume of one mole of a gas
- Empirical and molecular formula: different types of formulae to represent a compound
- Percentage composition by mass: calculation of the percentage of each element in a compound
Ceramics and Polymers
- Ceramics: inorganic, non-metallic materials
- Types of ceramics: earthenware, porcelain, and bone china
- Polymers: long chains of molecules formed by repeating units of monomers
- Types of polymers: natural (e.g. proteins, cellulose) and artificial (e.g. nylon, polyethylene)
- Uses and sources of polymers: varied and diverse
