Study Notes
Matter Hierarchy and Types of Particles
- Hierarchy: a structured ranking system used to categorize groups based on levels.
- Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space, categorized into pure substances and mixtures.
Pure Substances
- Pure substances consist entirely of one type of particle.
- Elements cannot be broken down and are listed on the periodic table (e.g., Fe, Mg, Cl2).
- Compounds are formed from two or more different elements chemically bonded in fixed proportions (e.g., H2O, CO2).
Types of Particles
- Atoms are the basic units of elements; unique to each element.
- Molecules are particles formed from chemically bonded atoms; they are key building blocks for compounds.
Mixtures
- Mixtures are combinations of two or more pure substances, maintaining their individual properties.
- Heterogeneous mixtures have visible distinct components (e.g., salad dressing).
- Homogeneous mixtures or solutions appear uniform throughout (e.g., apple juice).
Particle Theory
- All matter is composed of tiny particles with space between them.
- Gas particles have large spacing and high movement; no definite shape or volume.
- Liquid particles are closer, move slower, and have a definite volume but not shape.
- Solid particles are tightly packed with strong attractions, maintaining a definite shape and volume.
Motion of Particles
- Particles in pure substances exhibit uniformity in size and shape.
- Heating increases particle movement and spacing, while cooling decreases movement and condenses particles.
Chemical Bonding
- Valence electrons are involved in forming bonds; they have more energy being further from the nucleus.
- Core electrons are inner electrons that do not participate in bonding.
Bohr-Rutherford Diagrams
- Electrons are arranged in shells or energy levels around the nucleus.
- Each shell has a maximum number of electrons it can hold:
- First shell: 2 electrons
- Second shell: 8 electrons
- Third shell: 8 electrons
- Atomic structures can be determined using atomic numbers and atomic mass to find protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Atomic Structure
- Atomic number represents the number of protons in an atom.
- Neutrons can be calculated as atomic mass minus atomic number.
- In a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons.
Practice and Application
- Bohr-Rutherford diagrams help visualize atomic structures, including protons, neutrons, and the distribution of electrons.
- Understanding atomic structure is crucial in chemistry for predicting properties and behaviors of elements in reactions.
