    Study Notes

    Unknown Liquids Data

    • Students investigated whether unknown liquids were acids or bases
    • The dependent variable was the color change of litmus paper
    • The independent variable was the pH of the unknown liquid
    • Litmus paper indicator was a constant

    Compounds, Elements and Mixtures

    • A compound is a pure substance made of two or more elements bonded together
    • An element is the purest form of matter that cannot be broken down further
    • A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that are not chemically bonded

    Examples of Elements, Compounds, or Mixtures

    • H₂ - element
    • H₂O - compound
    • Air - mixture
    • C₆H₁₂O₆ - compound

    pH Scale

    • Substances were placed on a pH scale.
    • Distilled water (pH 7.0) - located on spot B
    • Battery Acid (pH 1.5) - located on spot A
    • Milk (pH 8.5) - located on spot C
    • Sodium Hydroxide (pH 13.0) - located on spot D

    Acid Properties

    • Sour taste
    • Rough
    • Conducts electricity
    • Reacts with bases
    • pH less than 7

    Base Properties

    • Bitter taste
    • Slippery
    • Conducts electricity
    • Reacts with acids
    • pH greater than 7

    Atom Inventory

    • Data was given to conduct an atom inventory for some molecules.
    • The number and type of atoms in a molecule is identified.

    Chemical Equation

    • 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂
    • Reactants: 6CO₂ and 6H₂O
    • Products: C₆H₁₂O₆ and O₂
    • CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ +2H₂O is a balanced equation for combustion of methane
    • C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 4H₂O +3CO₂ is a balanced equation

    Law of Conservation of Mass

    • Matter cannot be created or destroyed
    • The mass of the reactants will equal the mass of the products in a closed system.
    • 34 g C₆H₅COOH + 9 g O₂ → 18 g CO₂ + 13 g H₂O represents that the mass of reactants equals the mass of products

    Physical and Chemical Changes

    • Examples of physical changes: ice melting, salt dissolving, changing color of water, cutting paper
    • Examples of chemical changes: burning wood, mixing baking soda and vinegar, iron rusting, copper turning green
    • Clues to chemical changes: unexpected color change; gas formation (bubbles), precipitate (solid) formation, change in temperature

    Types of Reactions

    • Exothermic reactions: release heat to surroundings; feel warm to touch
    • Endothermic reactions: absorb heat from surroundings; feel cold to touch

    pH Values

    • pH range for acids: 0-6.9
    • pH range for bases: 7.1 and above
    • pH of a neutral substance: 7

    Metals and Nonmetals

    • Metals are elements left of the staircase on the periodic table
    • Properties of metals include: luster, good conductors, ductile, malleable, solid at room temperature
    • Nonmetals generally are right on the periodic table, have dull appearances that are poor conductors, brittle that are not ductile or malleable, often gases at room temperate.

    Bonds

    • Ionic bonds: form between metals and nonmetals; electrons are transferred
    • Covalent bonds: form between nonmetals and nonmetals; electrons are shared

    Ions and Isotopes

    • Ion: a charged atom
    • Isotopes: atoms with the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons
