    Study Notes

    Kinetic Particle Theory

    • Describes Brownian Motion, where all particles are constantly and randomly moving.
    • All matter is composed of tiny randomly moving particles.
    • Particle movement is determined by temperature, which is a measurement of kinetic energy related to heat.
    • Higher heat means higher kinetic energy and faster average molecular speed.
    • Lower heat means lower kinetic energy and slower average molecular speed.
    • Energy is neither created nor destroyed, but changes form.
    • Energy is the capacity to do work.

    States of Matter

    • Solids: Compact, fixed arrangement of atoms with strong attraction forces, low kinetic energy, incompressible and has a definite volume and shape.
    • Liquids: Moderately loose arrangement of atoms, moderate attraction forces, low kinetic energy, flows/slides and has a constant volume with an indefinite shape.
    • Gases: Widely spaced arrangement of atoms with a weak attraction force, high kinetic energy, compressible and has an indefinite shape and volume.

    Phase Changes

    • Evaporation (liquid to gas): High heat energy and temperature needed to change state.
    • Condensation (gas to liquid): Low heat and temperature for a phase change to occur
    • Melting (solid to liquid): Temperature increase at or above 0°C for melting.
    • Freezing (liquid to solid): Temperature decreases below 0°C to freeze.
    • Sublimation (solid to gas): Bypasses the liquid phase, high heat needed.
    • Deposition (gas to solid): Bypasses the liquid phase, low heat needed.

    Diffusion

    • Movement of molecules from higher to lower concentration along a concentration gradient.
    • It is a passive transport process, doesn't require energy.

    Atomic Structure and Periodic Table

    • Atoms are the basic building blocks of elements.
    • Molecules are formed from one or more atoms bonded together.
    • Atomic structure includes protons, neutrons, and electrons.
    • Protons have a positive charge.
    • Neutrons have no charge.
    • Electrons have a negative charge.
    • Atomic number is the number of protons.
    • Atomic mass is the sum of protons and neutrons.
    • Isotopes are different forms of the same element with varying numbers of neutrons.

    Ions

    • Ions are atoms or molecules with a net electric charge due to gaining or losing electrons.
    • Cations are positively charged ions.
    • Anions are negatively charged ions.

    Bonds

    • Ionic bonds: Transfer of electrons between atoms, creating oppositely charged ions that attract each other.
    • Covalent bonds: Sharing of electrons between atoms to achieve stability.
    • Octet rule: Atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer electron shell (eight valence electrons).

    Periodic Table

    • Elements are organized by increasing atomic number.
    • Elements in the same column (group) share similar chemical properties due to similar valence electron configurations.
    • Elements in the same row (period) have increasing numbers of electron shells.
