    Study Notes

    Properties of Matter

    • Physical Property: Observable characteristic without altering the substance's identity; includes color, odor, state, melting point, boiling point, and hardness.
    • Chemical Property: Describes how a substance interacts or resists change to form new substances; example: copper turning green upon exposure to air.
    • Boiling Point as a Physical Property: Although a liquid's appearance changes when boiled, it remains the same substance; chemical identity is consistent across physical states.

    Physical States of Matter

    • States: Solid, liquid, and gas are the fundamental physical states of matter.
    • Liquid:
      • Indefinite shape but definite volume.
      • Conforms to the shape of its container up to its volume.
    • Gas:
      • Indefinite shape and volume.
      • Fully occupies the container, adopting both shape and volume.
    • Factors Influencing State: Temperature, surrounding pressure, and the strength of interparticle forces determine the state of a substance.

    Properties of Substance

    • Distinguishing Characteristic: Each substance has a unique set of properties that aids in its identification and description.
    • Property Types: Divided into physical and chemical categories.

    Changes in Matter

    • Physical Change: Involves alteration of physical appearance without changing the chemical composition; examples include boiling or freezing water, which do not form new substances.

    Properties of Matter

    • Physical Property: Observed without altering the substance's identity. Includes color, odor, physical state, melting point, boiling point, and hardness.

    • Boiling point remains a physical property despite the different states of matter since the chemical identity of the substance is unchanged.

    • Chemical Property: Describes how a substance undergoes or resists changes to form a new substance.

    • Example: Copper oxidizes to turn green when exposed to air. Decomposition can occur through energy presence, indicating a chemical change.

    Atoms and Molecules

    • Atom: The smallest particle of an element with its properties, representing the limit of chemical subdivision.

    • A mere 254 million atoms lined up measure approximately 1 inch in length.

    • Molecule: A unit formed by two or more tightly bound atoms, acting as a distinct particle.

    • Types:

      • Diatomic: Contains two atoms.
      • Triatomic: Contains three atoms.
      • Homoatomic: Composed of the same type of atom (elements).
      • Heteroatomic: Composed of different types of atoms (compounds).

    Chemical Bonding

    • Ionic Bond: Formed by the transfer of one or more electrons from one atom to another, creating charged ions.

    Valence Electrons

    • Valence Electron: Electrons in the outermost shell of an element, crucial for bonding. Located in s or p subshells for representative and noble gases.
    • Lewis Symbol: A representation showing an element's chemical symbol surrounded by dots that denote valence electrons.

    Concept Applications

    • Classify molecules such as XeF4:
      • Type: Pentatomic, Heteroatomic, Compound.
    • Understand valence electrons for elements like Calcium (2), Selenium (6), and Carbon (4).

    Key Chemical Reactions

    • Scenario analysis involving sodium and chlorine reacting to produce sodium chloride through electron transfer, highlighting the process of ionic bonding.

    Chemical Nomenclature

    • Understanding chemical formulas and naming conventions, particularly for various compounds.

    Changes in Matter

    • Chemical Change: Involves changes in a substance's chemical composition leading to new substances; e.g., rusting of iron.

    • Pure Substances vs. Mixtures:

      • Pure Substance: Cannot be separated into other types of matter by physical means (e.g., water, sucrose).
      • Mixture: A combination of two or more pure substances retaining their individual properties (e.g., salt water).

    Atoms and Molecules

    • Heteroatomic Molecule: Contains two or more kinds of atoms; such substances are classified as compounds.

    • Classification of XeF4:

      • Pentatomic
      • Heteroatomic
      • Compound

    • True Statements about Atoms and Molecules:

      • The smallest particle of an element that retains properties is an atom.
      • A molecule is formed from multiple atoms functioning as a unit.
      • Molecules may be classified as diatomic, homoatomic, or heteroatomic.

    Ionic Compounds

    • Chemical Formula Determination:

      • Interaction between ions yields specific formulas: Ba2+ and Cl– → BaCl2, Fe3+ and O2– → Fe2O3, Pb4+ and O2– → PbO2.

    • Solid Ionic Compounds:

      • Composed of positive and negative ions; each ion has nearest neighbors of opposite charge due to electrostatic attraction.

    • Formula Unit: Represents the smallest whole-number ratio of ions in an ionic compound ensuring charge neutrality.

    Naming Binary Ionic Compounds

    • Definition: Binary compounds consist of two elements; binary ionic compounds include one metal and one nonmetal.

    • Naming Convention:

      • List the full name of the metallic element first, followed by the nonmetal with the suffix –ide added to its stem.
