Study Notes
Elements in the Universe
- Carl Sagan said "We are made of star stuff"
- Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant element in the universe and found in humans
Stellar Nucleosynthesis
- Heavier elements are created in stars as they die or explode
- Stellar nucleosynthesis is the process where stars transform hydrogen into helium, and other elements
Big Bang Theory
- Scientists believe the Big Bang theory has stages: expansion, recombination, nucleosynthesis
- Stages in order of the theory: Primordial, singularity, Nucleosynthesis, Recombination, Singularity, Inflation, Nucleosynthesis Recombination
Formation of Molecules/Compounds
- Protons and neutrons combine in stars to form the lighter elements, followed by heavier elements
- This process is called nucleosynthesis and creates the elements on the periodic table and molecules/compounds
Particle Accelerators
- Cyclotron is a device to speed up protons to overcome repulsion between protons and atomic nuclei using magnetic and electrical fields.
Nuclear Fusion
- Nuclear fusion is when two or more nuclei combine to form heavier nuclei
Electron Configuration of Sulfur
- The highest energy level and number of electrons in Sulfur is 3,4
Miscibility of Liquids
- Polar substances are miscible when combined with polar substances
- Polarity of bonds and molecular geometry affect the polarity of molecules
- Polar bonds form when atoms equally share electrons
Dissolving Substances
- Polar solvents dissolve polar solutes easily
- Nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar solutes easily
