Study Notes
Matter and Classification of Matter
- Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space
- Matter is classified as elements, compounds, and mixtures
- Pure substances are either elements or compounds, and are uniform in composition
- Mixtures combine two or more substances, but do not have a uniform composition
Motion of Particles (Kinetic Energy) in Different States of Matter
- Particles of matter are constantly in motion
- The kinetic energy of particles affects the state of matter
- Solids have low kinetic energy and fixed positions
- Liquids have medium kinetic energy and can move past each other
- Gases have high kinetic energy and can move freely
Introduction to Atoms and Molecules
- Matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms
- Molecules are formed when two or more atoms bond together
Elements and Compounds
- Elements are pure substances made of only one type of atom
- Compounds are pure substances made of two or more different types of atoms bonded together
Physical and Chemical Properties
- Physical properties can be observed without changing the composition of a substance
- Examples of physical properties include color, density, and melting point
- Chemical properties describe how a substance reacts with other substances to form new substances
Physical and Chemical Change-Phase Change is a Physical Change
- Physical changes alter a substance's physical properties but do not change its composition
- Phase changes are examples of physical changes
- Chemical changes result in the formation of new substances with different properties
Atomic Structure
- Atoms have a central nucleus containing protons and neutrons, with electrons orbiting the nucleus
Subatomic Particles: Proton, Electron, and Neutron
- Protons: positively charged particles located in the nucleus
- Electrons: negatively charged particles orbiting the nucleus
- Neutrons: neutral particles located in the nucleus
Atomic Number, Atomic Symbol, Mass Number, Different Representation of Element
- Atomic number: the number of protons in an atom
- Atomic symbol: a one- or two-letter abbreviation for an element
- Mass number: the sum of protons and neutrons in an atom
Valence Electrons and Electron Dot Symbol
- Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom
- Electron dot symbols represent the valence electrons of an element as dots around the element's symbol
Determination of Electrons in Neutral Atoms and Charged Ions
- Neutral atoms have an equal number of protons and electrons
- Ions have a different number of protons and electrons, resulting in a positive or negative charge
Calculation of Average Atomic Mass
- Average atomic mass is calculated by considering the abundance of isotopes of an element
Different Types of Bonds Depending on Electronegativity Difference: Ionic and Covalent
- Ionic bonds form between metals and nonmetals
- Covalent bonds form between nonmetals
- Electronegativity difference dictates the type of bond
Distinguish between Properties of Ionic and Covalent Compounds
- Ionic compounds are typically crystalline solids with high melting and boiling points, and conductive when melted or dissolved
- Covalent compounds are typically gases, liquids, or low-melting solids with low melting and boiling points; and not conductive (generally)
Naming of Ionic and Covalent Compounds
- Ionic compound naming follows specific rules based on the ions present
- Covalent compound naming uses prefixes to indicate the number of atoms of each element
Polyatomic Ions
- Polyatomic ions are groups of atoms that carry a charge and act as a single unit
Naming of Ionic Compounds with Transition Elements and Polyatomic Ions
- Naming ionic compounds with transition metals requires use of Roman numerals to indicate the charge of the transition metal ion
Drawing Electron Dot Structures of Ionic and Covalent Compounds
- Electron dot structures show how valence electrons are arranged in atoms and molecules
Determine the Molecular Structure Using VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) Theory
- VSEPR theory predicts the shapes of molecules based on the repulsion between electron pairs
Metallic Bonding and Properties Related to Metal Bonding: Ductility, Thermal and Electrical Conductivity, Malleability
- Metallic bonding involves a "sea" of delocalized electrons that hold metal atoms together
- Properties like ductility, thermal and electrical conductivity, and malleability result from the mobile electrons in the metallic bond
