Study Notes
Water Molecules and Polarity
- Water molecules are polar; oxygen side is slightly negative while hydrogen side is slightly positive.
Atomic Structure
- An atom with 3 protons, 4 neutrons, and 3 electrons has a mass number of 7.
- The three particles that make up atoms are protons, neutrons, and electrons.
- An atom with 11 protons and 12 neutrons has an atomic number of 11.
Solutions and Mixtures
- A solution is an evenly distributed mixture of two or more substances.
- The concentration of a solution refers to the amount of solute dissolved in a fixed amount of solution.
Enzymes and Reactions
- Enzymes influence chemical reactions by changing the speed of the reaction.
Acidity and pH
- Acidic solutions have a pH less than 7; a substance with a pH of 6 is classified as an acid.
- Stomach acid has a pH below 7, while oven cleaner has a pH above 7.
Bonds and Electrons
- Valence electrons are available to form bonds through sharing (covalent bonds) rather than transferring (ionic bonds).
- A covalent bond results from sharing an electron pair.
States of Matter
- Solids are states of matter where particles are tightly linked together, maintaining a definite shape.
Compounds and Isotopes
- Compounds are formed by the combination of two or more elements in definite proportions.
- Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons but differ in the number of neutrons.
Neutral Solutions
- A neutral solution contains an equal number of hydroxide and hydronium ions, balancing the pH.
Fundamental Composition of Matter
- All matter in the universe is composed of atoms, which are the basic building blocks.
