Study Notes

Mixture Types

  • A homogeneous mixture has uniform composition and properties throughout
  • A heterogeneous mixture has non-uniform composition and properties throughout
  • A compound has atoms of different elements chemically bonded together
  • A pure substance has a fixed composition and properties
  • Solid, liquid, and gas are states of matter

Element Symbols

  • The symbol for sodium is Na
  • The symbol for tin is Sn
  • The symbol for iron is Fe
  • The symbol for neon is N
  • The symbol for bromine is Br
  • The symbol for potassium is K
  • The symbol for lead is Pb

Physical Properties

  • Density is an intensive property that does not depend on the amount of substance
  • Temperature is an intensive property that does not depend on the amount of substance
  • Mass is an extensive property that depends on the amount of substance
  • Boiling point and freezing point are intensive properties that do not depend on the amount of substance
  • Accuracy refers to how close a measured number is to the true value
  • Precision refers to how close a measured number is to other measured numbers

Temperature Conversions

  • T(K) = t(°C) + 273.15
  • 1 °C = 1.8 °F + 32
  • 1 K = -272.15 °C

Density Calculations

  • Density = mass / volume
  • Volume of a cube = side length × side length × side length
  • Mass of a cube = density × volume

Unit Conversions

  • 1 nanometer = 1000 picometers
  • 1 kilogram = 1,000,000 milligrams
  • 1 meter per second = 3.6 kilometers per hour

Other Concepts

  • Absolute zero is 0 K or -273.15 °C
  • Momentum is defined as the product of mass and velocity
  • The SI unit for force is the Newton, which is kg·m/s²
  • The SI unit for velocity is m/s
