Study Notes
Important Atom Values
- Mass number (A) = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
- Atomic number (Z) = Number of protons
- AXZ notation illustrates atomic structure: A (mass number), Z (atomic number), X (chemical symbol).
Electron Shells and Structure
- Maximum electrons in nth shell = 2n².
- Electronic structures of the first 20 elements outlined, e.g.:
- H: 1, He: 2, Li: 2, 1, Na: 2, 8, 1.
- Noble gas arrangement signifies stability, e.g.:
- O atom (2, 6) vs. O2- ion (2, 8) showing stability post electron gain.
Periodic Table Insights
- Arranged by atomic number, reflecting electronic arrangements.
- Periods indicate the same occupied electron shell; groups indicate the number of outermost electrons.
- Group VII elements are colored substances; color deepens down the group.
- Group 0 elements are colorless gases.
General Classifications
- Elements categorized as metals, non-metals, and semi-metals.
- Unstable elements lack noble gas electronic arrangements.
Ionic and Covalent Bonds
- Ionic compounds require balanced charges between cations and anions.
- Example ionic formulas:
- NaCl, MgCl2, CuO.
- Covalent bonds represented through line notation showing single, double, and triple bonds.
Composition of Air
- Composed of 78% Nitrogen (N2), 21% Oxygen (O2), 0.93% Argon (Ar), and 0.04% Carbon dioxide (CO2).
- Fractional distillation is used for isolating components of liquid air.
Sea Water and Electrolysis
- Sea water is a mixture of elements and compounds.
- Electrolysis of sea water produces disinfectants and gases; e.g., NaCl yields Na+ and Cl2.
Flame Test
- Distinct flame colors for various compounds, e.g.:
- Sodium: golden yellow, Potassium: lilac, Copper: bluish green, Calcium: brick red.
- Utilizes non-luminous flame and concentrated HCl for wire cleansing.
Natural Sources and Extraction
- Natural sources for argon, oxygen, and nitrogen include liquid air; sodium hydroxide and hydrogen come from sea water.
- Most abundant substance and salt in sea water is water (H2O) and sodium chloride (NaCl) respectively.
Properties and Stability
- Physical appearances of elements under room conditions:
- Chlorine: yellowish-green gas, Argon: colorless gas, Fluorine: pale yellow gas.
- Elements with stable electronic arrangements conform to noble gas configurations.
Practice Questions Overview
- Questions test knowledge of electronic arrangements, classification of elements, physical appearances, and methods of distinguishing compounds through tests.
- Examples of questions cover periods and groups in the periodic table, ion formation, and chemical formulas for ionic compounds.
