Study Notes
Atomic Structure
- Atoms are the smallest units of an element, composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
- Protons are positively charged, found in the nucleus, and determine the element.
- Neutrons are neutrally charged, also in the nucleus, and contribute to atomic mass.
- Electrons are negatively charged, orbiting the nucleus in energy levels (shells).
- Electron configuration describes the arrangement of electrons in energy levels.
- Atomic number (Z) is the number of protons.
- Mass number (A) is the sum of protons and neutrons.
- Isotopes are variations of an element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
The Periodic Table
- The periodic table organizes elements by increasing atomic number and similar properties.
- Groups (vertical columns) contain elements with similar chemical properties due to similar outer electron configurations.
- Periods (horizontal rows) show gradual changes in properties, reflecting the number of electron shells.
- Elements are classified as metals, nonmetals, or metalloids.
- Alkali metals (Group 1) are highly reactive, especially with water.
- Halogens (Group 17) are reactive nonmetals.
- Noble gases (Group 18) are inert with complete electron shells.
Elements, Compounds, and Mixtures
- Elements are pure substances of one type of atom.
- Compounds are formed by chemically bonded elements.
- Mixtures combine substances without chemical bonds, physically separable.
Types of Bonds
- Ionic bonds involve electron transfer, forming positive and negative ions.
- Covalent bonds involve electron sharing.
Naming Compounds
- Ionic compounds combine cation (positive) and anion (negative) names.
- Covalent compounds use prefixes to indicate the number of atoms.
Chemical Equations
- Word equations use names, symbol equations use formulas.
- Balancing equations ensures equal atoms on both sides.
Nanoscience
- Nanoscience studies materials at the nanoscale (1-100 nanometers).
- Nanoparticles have unique properties due to large surface area.
- Applications include medicine, electronics, and materials science.
Magnets and Magnetic Fields
- Magnets produce magnetic fields with field lines running from north to south.
- Like magnetic poles repel, unlike poles attract.
Electromagnets
- Electromagnets use electric current to create a magnetic field.
- They are formed by a coil of wire (solenoid) often with an iron core.
- Uses include electric motors, generators, and magnetic cranes.
Static Electricity
- Static electricity is the buildup of electric charge.
- Discharge occurs when objects come into contact.
- Applications include lightning, photocopiers, and electrostatic precipitators.
Electricity: Circuits and Components
- Circuits are complete paths for electric current.
- Components include resistors (limit current), capacitors (store energy), switches, batteries, and bulbs.
Electric Current, Voltage, and Resistance
- Current (I) is the flow of charge (measured in amperes).
- Voltage (V) is the potential difference (measured in volts).
- Resistance (R) is the opposition to current (measured in ohms).
- Ohm's Law: V = IR
