Study Notes
Lewis Structures and Electronegativity
- Lewis structures depict atomic bonding and electron pairs in molecules.
- Electronegativity quantifies an atom's attraction for bonding electrons, impacting bond polarity.
Intermolecular Forces
- Hydrogen bonds are strong dipole-dipole interactions in molecules with H bonded to highly electronegative atoms (O, N, F).
- Dipole-dipole attractions occur between polar molecules with partial positive and negative charges.
- Dispersion forces are weak intermolecular forces due to temporary dipoles in molecules.
Polyatomic Ions and Prefixes
- Hydroxide: OH⁻
- Sulfate: SO₄²⁻
- Nitrate: NO₃⁻
- Ammonium: NH₄⁺
- Carbonate: CO₃²⁻
- Electronegativity differences: 0-0.3 (nonpolar), 0.4-2 (polar), >2 (ionic).
- Covalent compound naming prefixes: mono(1), di(2), tri(3), tetra(4), penta(5), hexa(6), hepta(7), octa(8), nona(9), deca(10).
Organic Compounds (Chapter 12)
- Organic compounds primarily contain carbon and hydrogen, sometimes other nonmetals.
- Found in various products: oil, gasoline, medicines, plastics, etc.
- Every carbon atom forms four bonds.
IUPAC Naming Conventions (Chapter 12)
- IUPAC system for naming organic compounds.
- Carbon Chain Base Names: meth-(1), eth-(2), prop-(3), but-(4), pent-(5), hex-(6), hept-(7), oct-(8), non-(9), dec-(10).
- Suffixes: alkane(-ane), alkene(-ene), alkyne(-yne).
Types of Hydrocarbons (Chapter 12)
- Alkanes: Saturated hydrocarbons with single bonds.
- Alkenes: Unsaturated hydrocarbons with double bonds.
- Alkynes: Unsaturated hydrocarbons with triple bonds.
- Cycloalkanes: Hydrocarbons arranged in ring structures.
Isomerism (Chapter 12)
- Cis-trans isomers: Alkenes with restricted rotation due to double bonds.
- Structural isomers: Same molecular formula, different bonding arrangements.
Identifying Alkenes and Alkynes (Chapter 12)
- Look at the molecular formula (C and H count).
- Double bond (C=C) indicates an alkene.
- Triple bond (C≡C) indicates an alkyne.
- Alkenes and alkynes are unsaturated (fewer hydrogens than alkanes).
Chemical Reactions (Chapter 7)
- Combustion: Example: CH₃CH(OH)C(O)OH + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O.
- Synthesis: A + B → AB (reactants combine).
- Decomposition: AB → A + B (compound breaks down).
- Exchange: AB + CD → AC + BD (components swap).
Balancing Chemical Equations (Chapter 7)
- Balance atoms for each element on both sides.
- Start balancing atoms within compounds.
- Adjust coefficients to balance individual elements.
Limiting Reagents and Percent Yield (Chapter 7)
- Limiting reagent is completely consumed, limiting product.
- Percent yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100%.
Mole Calculations (Chapter 7)
- Moles are 6.022 × 10²³ particles (Avogadro's number).
- Converting between mass and moles.
Common Oxidation States (Chapter 7)
- Oxygen (O) = -2
- Hydrogen (H) = +1
- Alkali metals (+1)
- Alkaline earth metals (+2)
Types of Chemical Reactions (Chapter 7)
- Synthesis, Decomposition, Exchange reactions.
Gases (Chapter 8)
- Temperature (T): Average kinetic energy of gas particles.
- Volume (V): Space occupied by the gas.
- Amount (n): Number of moles of gas.
- Pressure (P): Gas particle collisions with container walls.
Gas Laws (Chapter 8)
- Boyle's Law: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂ (Pressure and volume, constant temperature).
- Gay-Lussac's Law: P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂ (Pressure and temperature, constant volume).
- Charles's Law: V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂ (Volume and temperature, constant pressure).
Breathing and Gas Exchange (Chapter 8)
- Inhalation: Lung volume increase, pressure decrease.
- Exhalation: Lung volume decrease, pressure increase.
Ideal Gas Law (Chapter 8)
- PV = nRT
Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) (Chapter 8)
- 0°C (273 K) and 1 atm (760 mmHg)
Solubility and Solutions (Chapter 9)
- Solubility of most solids increases with temperature, gases decrease.
- Osmotic pressure is crucial for red blood cells.
Solutions (Chapter 9)
- Preparing Solutions: Calculate solute mass using molarity (M) = moles of solute / liters of solution.
- Dilution: M₁V₁ = M₂V₂ for concentration changes.
