    Study Notes

    Introduction

    • Ancient Indian philosophers, like Maharishi Kanad (500 BC), considered dividing matter into smaller pieces.
    • Pakudha Katyayama furthered this concept.
    • Ancient Greek philosophers, Democritus and Leucippus, proposed the idea of indivisible particles called atoms.
    • 18th Century scientific advancements led to understanding of elements and compounds, and how they combine.
    • Antoine Lavoisier laid the foundation of chemistry.

    Laws of Chemical Combination

    • Law of Conservation of Mass: Mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. The total mass remains constant.
    • Law of Constant Proportions: A chemical compound always contains the same elements in the same fixed proportion by mass.

    Dalton's Atomic Theory

    • All matter is made of atoms.
    • Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.
    • Atoms of different elements have different masses and properties.
    • Atoms combine in simple whole number ratios to form compounds.
    • Atoms are indivisible in chemical reactions.

    Symbols of Atoms

    • Element symbols are derived from their names.
    • Dalton first used symbols for elements.
    • Berzelius suggested using one or two letters from the name.

    Atomic Mass

    • Atomic mass is the relative mass of an atom compared to 1/12th the mass of a Carbon-12 atom.
    • Dalton proposed the concept of atomic mass.
    • Atomic mass is used to compare the masses of different atoms.

    Molecules of Elements and Compounds

    • Atoms of most elements can't exist independently; they form molecules.
    • Molecules of elements consist of identical atoms.
    • Molecules of compounds are formed by different elements combining in definite mass ratios.

    Molecules of Compounds

    • Atoms of different elements combine in definite proportions to form compounds.
    • Examples include water (H₂O), ammonia (NH₃), and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
    • Examples of molecules like water (H2O), ammonia (NH3), and carbon dioxide (CO2) are included to showcase combining ratios in compounds.

    Formula Unit Mass

    • Formula unit mass is the sum of atomic masses in a formula unit.
    • It's similar to molecular mass but used for ionic compounds.
    • Calculated by adding atomic masses of each atom in the formula unit.

    Molecular Mass

    • Molecular mass is the sum of atomic masses of all atoms in a molecule.
    • Calculated by adding atomic masses of each atom in the molecule.
    • Unit is atomic mass units (u).
