    Study Notes

    Mole Concept & Equivalent Concept

    • Matter is any substance that has mass and occupies space, categorized as either pure or a mixture.
    • Pure substances can be elements (e.g., O2, Na) or compounds (e.g., H2O, NaCl), while mixtures can be homogeneous or heterogeneous.
    • Homogeneous mixtures have uniform composition, whereas heterogeneous mixtures contain distinct phases.

    Colloid & Suspension

    • Colloids consist of particles sized between 1 - 100 nm and exhibit the Tyndall effect, examples include sand-water and oil-water mixtures.
    • Suspensions contain larger particles greater than 100 nm, such as S8 crown sulfur.

    Atomic Structure

    • Atom: smallest indivisible unit participating in chemical reactions.
    • Key scientists and their discoveries include:
      • J.J. Thomson - Electron
      • Goldstein - Proton
      • Chadwick - Neutron
      • Rutherford - Nucleus

    Chemical Reactions

    • Chemical reactions involve rearrangement of atoms, maintaining mass conservation (total mass of reactants = total mass of products).
    • Types include chemical and nuclear reactions (e.g., HCl + NaOH vs. 90233Th + 24He).

    Atomic Mass

    • Atomic mass unit (amu) is defined as 1/12 of the mass of a C-12 atom.
    • Isotopes share the same atomic number but differ in mass; C-12 is the standard due to stability.

    Molecules

    • Molecules are formed from atomic groups, classified as homoatomic (e.g., O2, Cl2) or heteroatomic (e.g., H2O, CO2).
    • A molecule of O2 consists of 2 atoms; 1 mole of glucose contains 6 C, 12 H, and 6 O atoms.

    Molecular Weight

    • Molecular weights vary among compounds, given for a variety of substances (e.g., H2O = 18, H2SO4 = 98).
    • Calculation of moles can be done with the formula: number of atoms = given mass/atomic weight.

    Stoichiometry

    • Stoichiometry is involved in the quantitative relationships of reactants and products in chemical reactions.
    • Example reaction: 2SO2 + O2 → 2SO3, with the stoichiometric ratios of 2:1:2.

    Limiting Reagent

    • A limiting reagent is a reactant that is consumed first, halting the reaction; the excess reagent remains unreacted.
    • Calculating limiting and excess reagents involves understanding initial amounts and stoichiometric relationships.

    Chemistry Calculations

    • Ratios must be used in calculations of limiting reactants to determine product formation accurately.
    • Percentage yield and percentage purity calculations help assess the efficiency of reactions.

    Empirical & Molecular Formulae

    • Empirical formulas represent the simplest whole number ratio of elements, while molecular formulas indicate the exact number of atoms.
    • Steps for determining empirical formula from % composition include calculating moles, establishing the ratio, and deriving both empirical and molecular formulas.

    Laws of Chemical Combination

    • Law of Conservation of Mass: Mass is neither created nor destroyed; total mass of reactants equals total mass of products.
    • Law of Definite Proportion: Elements combine in fixed ratios to form compounds, regardless of the source.
