    Study Notes

    Atomic Structure and Bonding

    • Atoms are the fundamental building blocks of matter.
    • Atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
      • Protons have a positive charge.
      • Neutrons have no charge.
      • Electrons have a negative charge.
    • The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons.
    • Electrons orbit the nucleus in energy levels or shells.
    • Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom.
    • Atomic mass is the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom.
    • Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons.
    • Chemical bonds form when atoms share or transfer electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
      • Ionic bonds form between metals and nonmetals, where electrons are transferred.
      • Covalent bonds form between nonmetals, where electrons are shared.
      • Metallic bonds form between metals, where electrons are delocalized.

    Stoichiometry

    • Stoichiometry is the quantitative relationship between reactants and products in a chemical reaction.
    • Chemical equations represent chemical reactions, where reactants are on the left and products are on the right.
    • Balanced chemical equations have equal numbers of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation.
    • Mole concept is crucial in stoichiometry. A mole is a unit representing Avogadro's number (6.022 x 1023) of particles.
    • Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance and is numerically equal to the atomic or molecular weight in grams.
    • Calculations involve relating moles of reactants to moles of products and then to mass using molar masses.

    States of Matter

    • Matter exists in three primary states: solid, liquid, and gas.
      • Solids have fixed shape and volume.
      • Liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container.
      • Gases have neither a fixed shape nor a fixed volume.
    • Phase changes occur when matter transitions between states.
      • Melting: solid to liquid.
      • Freezing: liquid to solid.
      • Vaporization: liquid to gas.
      • Condensation: gas to liquid.
      • Sublimation: solid to gas.
      • Deposition: gas to solid.
    • Properties of the states depend on the arrangement and movement of particles.

    Solutions

    • A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances.
      • The solute is the substance dissolved in the solvent.
      • The solvent is the substance doing the dissolving.
    • Concentration describes the amount of solute in a given amount of solution.
      • Common units include molarity, molality, and percent by mass.
    • Factors affecting solubility include temperature, pressure, and nature of solute and solvent.

    Acids and Bases

    • Acids and bases are important classes of chemical compounds.
    • Acids have a sour taste, turn litmus paper red, and release H+ ions in water.
    • Bases have a bitter taste, turn litmus paper blue, and release OH− ions in water.
    • The pH scale measures the acidity or basicity of a solution.
      • pH values below 7 are acidic.
      • pH values above 7 are basic.
      • pH of 7 is neutral.
    • Strong acids and bases completely dissociate in water.
    • Weak acids and bases partially dissociate in water.
    • Neutralization reactions occur when acids and bases react to form a salt and water.

    Thermochemistry

    • Thermochemistry deals with the energy changes that occur during chemical reactions.
    • Exothermic reactions release heat, and endothermic reactions absorb heat.
    • Enthalpy (ΔH) is a measure of the heat content of a system.
    • Hess's Law allows calculation of enthalpy changes for complex reactions from known reactions' enthalpy changes.
    • Specific heat capacity measures the amount of heat required to change the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.

    Kinetics

    • Chemical kinetics studies the rates of chemical reactions.
    • Reaction rate is the change in concentration of reactants or products per unit time.
    • Factors affecting reaction rates include temperature, concentration of reactants, catalysts, and surface area.
    • Reaction mechanisms describe the step-by-step process of a reaction.

    Equilibrium

    • Dynamic equilibrium exists when the forward and reverse reaction rates are equal.
    • Equilibrium constant (K) is a numerical value that describes the position of equilibrium.
    • Le Chatelier's Principle predicts how a change in conditions (temperature, pressure, concentration) affects the position of equilibrium.
