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.
