    Study Notes

    Matter and Properties

    • Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass.
    • Extensive properties depend on the amount of matter, e.g., mass and volume.
    • Intensive properties are quantity-independent and depend on the type of matter, e.g., density and color.

    Mixtures

    • Mixtures consist of two or more substances.
    • Homogeneous mixtures have evenly distributed components, difficult to distinguish visually.
    • Heterogeneous mixtures have unevenly distributed components, easily distinguished by the eye.

    Pure Substances

    • Pure substances can be either elements or compounds.
    • Elements consist of identical atoms, while compounds are made of two or more different elements in a fixed ratio.

    Historical Development of the Periodic Table

    • Dobereiner’s Triad (1817): Similar elements grouped in threes; average atomic weight of the second equals the average of the first and third.
    • Newlands’ Law of Octaves (1866): Elements arranged by increasing atomic mass, with the properties of the eighth element repeating those of the first.
    • Mendeleev’s Table (1869): Elements’ atomic weights relate to periodic variations in properties; predicted Gallium's existence.
    • Henry Moseley (1894): Discovered that atomic charge (atomic number) is distinct from atomic mass.

    Modern Periodic Table Structure

    • Metals give electrons, nonmetals accept electrons, and metalloids possess characteristics of both categories.

    States of Matter

    • States vary from Bose-Einstein condensate (coldest) to plasma (hottest).

    Properties of Matter

    • Physical properties do not change the substance's composition; examples include hardness and malleability.
    • Atomic Radius: Distance between the nucleus and valence shell; increases down the group.
    • Electron Affinity: Energy released when an atom gains an electron; higher affinity the closer to fluorine.
    • Ionization Energy: Energy required to remove an electron; increases as the atom approaches fluorine.
    • Electronegativity: Atom's ability to attract electrons; higher values indicate proximity to fluorine.
