Study Notes

Chemistry Basics

  • Chemistry is the science that deals with the composition, structure, and properties of matter
  • Atoms are the basic building blocks of all matter and are the smallest particle of an element that has the chemical identity of the element

Chemical Compounds and Properties

  • Chemical compounds are combinations of two or more atoms of different elements united chemically with fixed chemical composition, definite proportions, and distinct properties
  • Compound molecules are two or more atoms of different elements united chemically with fixed chemical composition, definite proportions, and distinct properties
  • Chemical properties are characteristics that can only be determined with a chemical reaction
  • Chemical change is a change in the chemical composition of a substance by which new substances are formed

pH and Solutions

  • Acids are solutions that have a pH below 7.0
  • Alkalis (also known as bases) are solutions that have a pH above 7.0

Shampoos

  • Balancing shampoos are designed for oily hair and scalps, washing away excess oiliness while keeping the hair from drying out
  • Clarifying shampoos contain an active chelating agent that binds to and helps remove metals from the hair, providing thorough cleansing and cutting through product buildup
  • Color-enhancing shampoos are created by combining surfactant bases with basic dyes
