Study Notes
Unit 1: Gas Laws
- Relationship between Pressure (P), Volume (V), Temperature (T), and Moles (n) is described by the Ideal Gas Law: PV=nRT
- Boyle's Law states that P1V1=P2V2
- Charles' Law and Avogadro's Law are also important gas laws
- Kinetic Molecular Theory describes the behavior of gas particles, assuming particles are in constant random motion, collisions are elastic, and no intermolecular forces
Unit 2: Atoms
- Nuclear Reactions: Fission, Fusion, Alpha Decay, Beta Decay, and Gamma Decay
- The Nucleus of an Atom contains protons and neutrons
- Isotopes: Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons
- Radioactive Decay: Alpha (α) decay, Beta (β) decay, Gamma (γ) decay, and Half-Life: Time it takes for half of a radioactive sample to decay
Unit 3: Electrons and Bonding
- Electron Configurations: Arrangement of electrons in an atom, noted by notation (e.g., 1s² 2s² 2p⁶)
- Spectra: Emission and Absorption Spectra, used to identify elements
- Electron Shielding: Inner electrons shield outer electrons from the full charge of the nucleus
- Electronegativity: Measure of an atom's ability to attract electrons in a bond
Unit 4: Bonds
- Types of Bonds: Ionic (Transfer of electrons), Covalent (Sharing of electrons), and Metallic (Free-flowing electrons in metals)
- Ionic Compounds: Formed from positive and negative ions, with properties like high melting points and conductivity when molten or dissolved in water
- Polyatomic Ions: Ions composed of two or more atoms covalently bonded (e.g., NH₄⁺, SO₄²⁻)
Unit 5: Molecules
- Periodic Table Trends: Atomic radius, Ionization Energy, Electron Affinity, Electronegativity
- Lewis Structures and Structural Formulas: Representation of molecules showing how atoms are bonded
- Molecule Shapes and Isomers: VSEPR theory for predicting shapes, Isomers: Compounds with the same formula but different structures
- Polar/Non-polar: Polar molecules have uneven distribution of charge, Non-polar molecules have even distribution of charge
- Intermolecular Forces (IMFs): Dipole-dipole, Hydrogen Bonding, London Dispersion Forces
Unit 6: Reactions
- Balancing Reactions: Ensuring the same number of each type of atom on both sides of the equation
- Types of Reactions: Synthesis, Decomposition, Single Replacement, Double Replacement, Combustion
- Stoichiometry: Calculations based on balanced chemical equations
- Limiting Reactants: The reactant that is completely consumed first, limiting the amount of product formed
Unit 7: Energy in Reactions
- Exothermic/Endothermic Reactions: Exothermic releases heat, Endothermic absorbs heat
- Energy Diagrams: Graphical representation of energy changes during a reaction
- Heat of Reaction: The change in enthalpy (ΔH) during a reaction
- Bond Energy: Energy required to break a bond
Unit 8: Solutions
- Mixtures and Solutions: Mixture is a combination of two or more substances, Solution is a homogeneous mixture of solute dissolved in solvent
- Calculating Concentrations and Dilutions: Concentration is amount of solute per unit volume of solution (e.g., molarity M = moles/L), Dilution: C1V1=C2V2 (Concentration and volume before and after dilution)
