Valencies of Elements

  • Valency represents an element's combining power in a chemical reaction.
  • It's the number of electrons an element can gain or lose.
  • Some elements exhibit multiple valencies (e.g., Fe, Cu, Sn, Pb).

Examples of Elements and Their Valencies

  • Tin (Sn) - Valency 2, 4
  • Copper (Cu) - Valency 1, 2

Compound Names and Formulas

  • Examples of compound names, chemical formulas, and their constituent elements are provided in the text.

Mixtures vs. Compounds

  • Mixtures: Can be homogeneous or heterogeneous; constituents are physically combined in variable ratios; properties are the sum of individual constituents.
  • Compounds: Always homogeneous; constituents are chemically combined in fixed ratios; properties are different from those of individual constituents.

Relative Atomic Mass Calculation

  • Calculations are shown for determining relative atomic mass from isotopic abundance.

Percentage Composition in Compounds

  • Calculations are shown for determining the percentage composition by mass of elements in compounds (e.g., NaOH, H₂SO₄, Ca(OH)₂).

  • Molecular formula: Shows the actual number of atoms of each element in a compound.
  • Calculations are provided to determine empirical and molecular formulas from percent compositions and molar masses.

Law of Conservation of Mass

  • The law states that mass cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system; it can only be transformed.
  • Mass of reactants = Mass of products in low-energy thermodynamic processes.
  • The law has been refined with quantum mechanics and special relativity.
  • The law is expressed mathematically using the continuity equation (differential form) in fluid and continuum mechanics.

Law of Conservation of Mass Examples and Calculations

  • Examples and calculations provided demonstrate how to calculate unknown masses of reactants or products in chemical reactions while adhering to the law of conservation of mass.
