Study Notes
Acid-Base Concepts
- Litmus paper indicates acidity: blue turns red in acid, red stays unchanged.
- Acids contain hydrogen ions (H+) and can be amphoteric, acting as both acids and bases.
- Sulfuric acid is an example of a notable acid with different nomenclature.
Law of Conservation of Mass
- The total mass before a chemical reaction equals the total mass after.
- Chemical reaction: Reactants (A + B) transform into Products (FAB).
- Example: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O illustrates the conservation principle, where mass is balanced.
Atomic Structure
- Democritus proposed that atoms are the smallest particles of matter.
- John Dalton described atoms as indivisible and indestructible particles that are chemically alike.
- Avogadro's number (6.02 x 10²³) defines the number of atoms in one mole of an element.
Laws of Proportions
- Law of Definite Proportions states compounds have a constant composition.
- Law of Multiple Proportions applies when elements combine in different ratios.
Atomic Theories and Discoveries
- J.J. Thomson discovered electrons: negatively charged particles.
- Ernest Rutherford identified that atoms consist mostly of empty space with protons in the nucleus.
- James Chadwick confirmed the existence of neutrons also in the nucleus.
- Niels Bohr introduced the planetary model of the atom, likening electron orbits to planetary orbits around the sun.
Electron Configuration
- Electron arrangement in atoms follows specific energy levels:
- First level: 2 electrons.
- Second level: up to 8 electrons (2(2)^2).
- Third level: up to 18 electrons.
- Pauli's Exclusion Principle states that each orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons with opposite spins.
- Hund’s Rule dictates that electrons will singly occupy degenerate orbitals before pairing occurs.
Quantum Mechanics
- Principal Quantum Number describes the energy level of an electron in an atom, determining its average distance from the nucleus and energy state.
