Study Notes
Chemical Reactions
- Atoms are the smallest unit of matter, composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
- Elements are chemical substances containing only one type of atom.
- Compounds are chemical molecules containing two or more different types of atoms.
- Molecules are groups of atoms bonded together, including elements and compounds.
Acids and Alkalis
- Weak acids are found in everyday items like food, drinks, and skincare products and are safe to handle.
- Strong acids, like those in car batteries or laboratories, are corrosive and dangerous.
- Alkalis (bases) are chemically opposite to acids.
- Weak alkalis are found in soaps, cleaning materials, and antacids.
- Strong alkalis, like those in laboratories or bleach, are caustic and damaging.
- Acids have a sour taste, turn blue litmus red, and have a pH less than 7.
- Alkalis have a bitter taste, turn red litmus blue, and have a pH greater than 7.
Neutral Substances
- Neither acidic nor alkaline.
- Examples include pure water, saltwater, saliva, and blood.
Indicators
- Chemical substances that change color depending on whether they are in an acidic or alkaline solution.
- Litmus is an indicator that is blue in an alkaline solution and red in an acidic solution.
Universal Indicator
- Shows a range of colors to indicate the strength of an acid or alkali.
Newton’s Second Law (Law of Acceleration)
- The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force acting on it and inversely proportional to its mass.
- The equation for this law is F = ma.
Newton’s Third Law (Action and Reaction)
- For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
- Forces always exist in pairs.
Wavelength
- The distance between successive crests (or troughs) of a wave.
- Measured in meters (m).
- Wavelength and frequency are inversely related: as one increases, the other decreases.
Frequency
- The number of complete waves that pass a point in a given time period (usually one second).
- Measured in hertz (Hz).
- Higher frequency means more waves pass a point in the same time, contributing to the wave's energy.
Speed
- The distance a wave travels in a given time period.
- Calculated with the formula v = fλ.
- The speed of a wave varies depending on the medium it travels through.
Transmission of Sound Using the Particle Model
- Sound is a mechanical wave that propagates through a medium by causing particles to vibrate.
- Sound travels faster in solids than liquids or gases due to the tighter packing of particles in solids.
