Study Notes
Particle Theory
- All matter is composed of tiny particles.
- Particles are constantly moving.
- Particle movement increases with temperature.
- Particles attract each other.
- Each pure substance has unique particles.
Matter
- Two categories: pure substances and mixtures.
- Pure substances include elements and compounds.
- Mixtures include heterogeneous and homogeneous mixtures.
Physical Properties
- Clarity
- Temperature
- Density
- Malleability
- Luster
- Ductility
- Color
- Conductivity
- State (solid, liquid, gas)
- Hardness
- Melting/boiling point
- Taste
- Odor
- Solubility
- Texture
Chemical Properties
- Describes how a substance reacts with others.
- Reaction with acid
- Combustibility (reaction with oxygen)
Chemical and Physical Changes
- Physical change: substance remains the same.
- Examples: changes of state, dissolving.
- Chemical change: new substance(s) formed.
- Signs: precipitate formation, gas evolution, color change, heat/light production, usually irreversible.
Gas Tests
- Gases are often identified by their unique chemical reactions.
- Gas test | Result for test
- Carbon Dioxide (CO2) | Turns limewater cloudy.
- Oxygen (O2) | Relites a glowing splint.
- Hydrogen (H2) | Causes a "pop" sound with a flaming splint.
Atomic Structure
- Three subatomic particles:
- Proton: +1 charge, located in the nucleus.
- Electron: -1 charge, located in orbitals surrounding the nucleus.
- Neutron: 0 charge, located in the nucleus.
- Atomic number (Z): number of protons, defines the element.
- Mass number: number of protons + neutrons.
- Isotopes: atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons.
- Radioactive isotopes: unstable nuclei.
Bohr-Rutherford Model
- Orbitals depicted as rings.
- First orbital holds 2 electrons.
- Second and third orbitals typically hold 8 electrons each.
- Valence electrons: electrons in the outermost orbital.
- Chemical reactions involve valence electrons.
- Octet rule: tendency for atoms to gain/lose electrons to achieve 8 valence electrons (or 2 for elements with a low atomic number).
Periodic Table
- Groups (vertical columns): elements in the same group have the same number of valence electrons.
- Alkali metals (Group 1).
- Alkaline earth metals (Group 2).
- Transition metals (Groups 3-12).
- Halogens (Group 17).
- Noble gases (Group 18).
Lewis Diagrams
- Show element symbol with dots representing valence electrons.
Ions
- Formed when atoms gain or lose electrons.
- Cations: positive ions (metals).
- Anions: negative ions (non-metals).
Naming Ions
- Cations keep element name + "ion."
- Anions: element stem + "ide" + "ion."
- Examples: Chloride, Oxide, Bromide.
Ionic Compounds
- Formed between metals and non-metals.
- Metal atoms lose electrons to form cations, non-metal atoms gain electrons to form anions.
- Ionic bond: electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.
- Often crystalline solids.
- High melting/boiling points.
- Many dissolve in water.
Electrolytes
- Compounds that form ions when dissolved in water, conducting electricity.
- Most ionic compounds are electrolytes.

- Balanced equations: same number of atoms of each element on both sides.
- Coefficients: numbers in front of formulas, representing the relative number of particles.
- Steps to balance equations:
- Count atoms of each element.
- Add coefficients to balance atoms.
Types of Chemical Reactions
- Synthesis: 2 or more reactants form one product.
- Decomposition: one reactant breaks down into 2 or more products.
- Single displacement: one element replaces another in a compound.
- Double displacement: two elements in different compounds switch places.
Combustion
- Rapid reaction with oxygen producing oxides and energy.
- Hydrocarbon: compound of hydrogen and carbon.
- Complete combustion: produces CO2 and H2O.
- Incomplete combustion: produces CO2, H2O, and carbon/CO.
Corrosion
- Breakdown of a metal due to chemical reactions.
- Rusting: specific form of iron corrosion.
- Prevent by protective coatings, corrosion-resistant materials, or galvanizing.
Acids
- Substances releasing H+ ions in water.
- Sour taste.
- React with metals to produce H2 gas.
- React with carbonates to produce CO2 gas.
Bases
- Substances releasing OH⁻ ions or CO₃²⁻ ions in water.

- Conducts electricity in solution.
pH Scale
- Measures acidity or basicity of a solution (0-14).
