Study Notes
Chemistry Overview
- Chemistry is the study of matter's composition, structure, changes during reactions, and properties.
- It originates from "alchemy," which comes from "al-kamia" meaning "cast together."
- Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass.
States of Matter
- Solid
- Liquid
- Gas
- Plasma
- Bose-Einstein Condensate
Phases of Matter
- Phase changes involve energy absorption or release (e.g., heat).
- Melting (solid to liquid)
- Freezing (liquid to solid)
- Sublimation (solid to gas)
- Deposition (gas to solid)
- Evaporation (liquid to gas)
- Condensation (gas to liquid)
- Ionization (gas to plasma)
- Deionization (plasma to gas)
Properties of Matter
- Physical Properties: Observed without changing substance (e.g., color, density, melting point).
- Chemical Properties: Observed only when substance changes to a new substance (e.g., flammability, reactivity).
- Intensive Properties: Independent of substance amount (e.g., boiling point, density).
- Extensive Properties: Dependent on substance amount (e.g., mass, volume).
Pure Substances
- Elements: Simplest substances, cannot be broken down chemically. (E.g., metal, metalloid, nonmetal).
- Compounds: Two or more elements combined chemically (e.g., water, salt).
Mixtures
- Mixtures are two or more substances mixed together, but not chemically combined.
- Homogeneous: Uniform appearance, single phase (e.g., solutions).
- Heterogeneous: Different distinguishable phases (e.g., suspensions, colloids).
Separation Techniques
- Decantation/Floatation
- Filtration
- Distillation
- Mechanical Separation
- Centrifugation
- Chromatography
- Solvent Extraction
- Amalgamation
- Cyanidation
Atomic Structure
- Atoms are the fundamental building blocks of matter.
- Atoms consist of a nucleus (protons and neutrons) and orbiting electrons.
Isotopes
- Isotopes of an element have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.
Ions
- Ions are charged particles formed by adding or removing electrons from neutral atoms.
- Cations: positively charged ions
- Anions: negatively charged ions
Periodic Table
- Elements are arranged in the periodic table based on increasing atomic number.
- Elements with similar properties appear at periodic intervals.
- Groups (columns) and periods (rows) are used to organize elements.
Atomic Mass, Atomic Number
- Atomic number is the number of protons in the atom.
- Atomic mass is the total mass of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom.
Avogadro's Number
- Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23) represents the number of atoms or molecules in one mole of a substance.
Laws of Chemistry
- Conservation of Mass: Mass cannot be created or destroyed.
- Law of Definite Proportions: A chemical compound always contains the same proportion of elements by mass.
- Law of Multiple Proportions: When two elements combine to form more than one compound, the ratio of weights of one element combined with a fixed weight of the other is a simple ratio of small whole numbers.
Concentration
- Concentration is the measure of how much of one substance is present in another. -Parts per Million (ppm): useful to describe very dilute concentrations -Molarity (M): The number of moles of solute per liter of solution -Molality (m): The number of moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. -Mole Fraction(x): The ratio of moles of one component to the total number of moles of all components in a solution. -Normality (N): concentration expressed as the equivalence of solution.
