    Study Notes

    Chemistry: Exploring the Fundamentals

    • An atom consists of a nucleus surrounded by electrons
    • Nucleus contains protons and neutrons
    • Protons are positively charged
    • Neutrons are neutral
    • Electrons are negatively charged
    • The number of protons defines an element's identity
    • Neutrons can vary, creating isotopes
    • Electrons typically equal the number of protons
    • Protons = Atomic Number
    • Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number
    • Electrons = Atomic Number (neutral atom)

    Chemical vs. Physical Properties

    • Chemical properties describe how a substance interacts with other substances and changes its composition
      • Reactivity
      • Flammability
      • pH
      • Solubility
    • Physical properties describe the observable characteristics of a substance
      • State (solid, liquid, gas)
      • Color
      • Density
      • Melting/Boiling Point
