Study Notes
Reaction Rates and Factors
- Chemical powders have a greater surface area than solid lumps, increasing the reaction rate due to more available surface for collisions.
- Agitation or stirring of reactants accelerates particle movement, leading to more frequent collisions and a higher reaction rate.
Combustion Reactions
- Combustion occurs when a fuel reacts with oxygen, producing heat and light.
- Word equation for combustion: Fuel + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water.
- Common examples include petrol in engines, burning wood, gas stoves, and fireworks.
- Complete Combustion occurs with excess oxygen, producing carbon dioxide and water.
- Incomplete Combustion occurs with insufficient oxygen, resulting in carbon or carbon monoxide production.
Phase Changes
- Condensation: Transition from gas to liquid when heat is removed, causing particles to slow and attract each other.
- Solidification (Freezing): Transition from liquid to solid when heat is removed, fixing particles in place.
- Sublimation: Direct transition from solid to gas as surface particles gain enough energy to overcome bonds.
- Deposition: Direct transition from gas to solid when gas particles lose energy and bond together.
Boiling and Melting Points
- Boiling point: Temperature at which a liquid turns into gas (Water: 100°C).
- Melting point: Temperature at which a solid turns into liquid (Water: 0°C).
Properties of Matter
- Properties are measurable qualities of matter, including color, density, volume, mass, strength, viscosity, compressibility, and hardness.
- Strength: High tensile strength allows stretching without breaking (e.g., elastic bands), and high compressional strength withstands force (e.g., concrete).
- To convert kilograms to grams, multiply by 1000.
Measuring Volume
- Volume is measured in cubic centimeters (cm³) or milliliters (mL); 1 L = 1000 mL.
Density Calculations
- Density formula: Density = Mass/Volume.
- Calculations involve converting units and applying the formula to find unknowns.
Solutions and Diffusion
- A solution is formed through the process of dissolving, resulting in a uniform mixture.
- Diffusion: Mixing of gases or liquids without stirring, as particles move until evenly distributed (e.g., odors spreading in a room).
Atoms and Elements
- Atoms are the fundamental building blocks of matter; they can be single or combined in molecules.
- Elements consist of only one type of atom; there are 90 naturally occurring elements.
- The Periodic Table displays elements with atomic numbers indicating the number of protons.
Physical and Chemical Changes
- Physical Change: The appearance changes, but the same elements and compounds remain (e.g., ice melting).
- Chemical Change: Involves a reaction creating new substances (e.g., rusting iron forming iron oxide).
- Indicators of chemical change include gas production, irreversible color changes, heat, or light release.
Reactants and Products
- Reactants are the starting substances in a chemical reaction, while products are formed at the end.
- Atom count remains the same, but atoms rearrange to produce different substances (e.g., mixing sodium chloride and silver nitrate produces silver chloride and sodium nitrate).
