Study Notes
Separation of Mixtures
- Electrostatic Stabilization: Colloidal particles are charged to prevent coagulation.
- Decantation: Separation based on differences in specific gravity or density.
- Distillation: Utilizes evaporation and condensation to separate components based on boiling points.
- Evaporation: Transition of liquid to gas, allowing for concentration of dissolved substances.
- Magnetic Separation: Distinguishes magnetic materials from non-magnetic ones using ferromagnetism.
- Filtration: Separates solids from liquids or gases using a porous filter; results in filtrate (passed solution) and residue (retained solids).
- Sorting: Mechanical method to classify components by their physical properties.
- Centrifugation: Applies centrifugal force to accelerate the settling of particulates.
- Fractional Crystallization: Isolates components based on solubility by lowering temperature.
- Chromatography: Separates based on differences in solvent affinity.
Properties of Matter
- Extrinsic Properties: Extensive properties that vary with the amount of substance present.
- Intrinsic Properties: Intensive properties that remain constant regardless of quantity, e.g., law of definite proportions.
- Law of Multiple Proportions: Different compounds formed by the same elements have mass ratios that are whole numbers.
Fundamental Laws of Matter
- Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
- Conservation of Mass and Energy: In a closed system, total mass and energy remain unchanged; energy can convert to mass and vice versa, described by Einstein's equation.
Classification of Mixtures
-
Based on Nature of Particles:
- Heterogeneous Mixtures: Consist of distinct phases (e.g., sand and water).
- Homogeneous Mixtures: Uniform composition throughout (e.g., saltwater).
-
Based on Size of Particles:
- Solutions: Uniform mixtures of solute and solvent.
- Suspensions: Coarse mixtures with solid particles suspended in a liquid.
- Colloids: Intermediate phase, smaller than suspension particles but larger than those in solutions.
Colloidal Properties
- Tyndall Effect: Light scattering in colloids indicates particle presence.
- Brownian Motion: Random movement of colloidal particles.
- Adsorption: Surface adhesion of atoms or molecules from gas/liquid to a solid.
- Colligative Properties: Characteristics influenced by solute concentration including vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression, and osmotic pressure.
Changes in Matter
- Physical Change: Alters form or phase without creating a new substance.
- Chemical Change: Alters intrinsic and extrinsic properties and forms new substances, modifying atomic structure.
- Nuclear Change: Transformations at the atomic nucleus level, including nuclear fission (splitting heavy atoms) and fusion (combining light atoms).
Chemical Reactions
- Direct Union (Synthesis): Combines simple substances into a complex one.
- Decomposition: Breaks down complex substances into simpler forms.
- Single Replacement Reaction: One element replaces another in a compound, determined by the activity series.
- Double Replacement Reaction (Metathesis): Exchange between two compounds, as seen in neutralization reactions.
Activity Series
- Helps predict displacement reactions; metals higher in the series can displace those lower from compounds.
- For Non-metals: Fluorine is more reactive than chlorine, bromine, and iodine in displacement reactions.
Evidence of Chemical Change
- Indicators include gas evolution, precipitate formation, light emission, energy changes, and electrochemical activity.
Chemical Processes
- Oxidation: Addition of oxygen or loss of hydrogen.
- Reduction: Addition of hydrogen or loss of oxygen.
- Neutralization: Reaction between an acid and a base to form water and a salt.
Discovery of Atoms
- Democritus: Coined the term “atomos,” proposing that matter consists of small, indivisible particles.
- Conducted experiments by grinding materials to identify smaller particles, which he termed ATOMOS.
John Dalton
- Developed Dalton’s Atomic Theory based on empirical evidence rather than speculation.
- Key postulates of his theory:
- All matter is composed of atoms.
- Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.
- Different elements consist of different types of atoms.
- Atoms combine in fixed ratios to form compounds.
- Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions.
JJ Thomson
- Proposed the Raisin Bread/Plum Pudding Model of the atom.
- Discovered that atoms could emit smaller negatively charged particles, termed electrons, using cathode-ray tubes.
Eugen Goldstein
- Identified positive rays (ions) within the cathode-ray tube, labeling them "canal rays."
- Canal rays consist of positively charged particles that move toward the cathode, formed when gaseous particles lose electrons.
Ernest Rutherford
- Coined the term proton and discovered its concentration in the atomic nucleus.
- Conducted the Gold Foil Experiment, revealing that:
- Approximately 99% of alpha particles passed through the foil, indicating a vast amount of empty space in the atom.
Solutions Overview
- Solutions are homogeneous mixtures comprised of two or more substances.
- Solute: the component in lesser quantity, dissolved in the solvent.
- Solvent: the component in greater quantity, present in the solution.
Types of Solutions Based on Solubility
- Unsaturated Solution: Contains less solute than it can hold at a specific temperature.
- Saturated Solution: Contains the maximum solute amount that can be dissolved at a given temperature.
- Supersaturated Solution: Contains more solute than normally possible at a certain temperature, creating an unstable state.
Factors Affecting Solubility
- Polarity: Greater polarity difference between solute and solvent decreases solubility; principle of "like dissolves like."
-
Temperature:
- Endothermic reactions: Increased temperature leads to increased solubility.
- Exothermic reactions: Increased temperature leads to decreased solubility.
-
Pressure:
- Gases: Higher pressure increases gas solubility in a liquid.
- Liquids and Solids: Pressure has negligible effects on their solubility.
- Particle Size and Surface Area: Smaller particle sizes and increased surface area enhance solubility.
-
Presence of Salt:
- Salting-Out: Salt reduces solubility.
- Salting-In: Salt can increase solubility in certain cases.
Concentration Expression Methods
-
Percent Solutions:
- % by mass, % by volume, and % by mass/volume.
- Parts per million (ppm) and proof measure alcohol concentration.
-
Percentage Strength:
- Expressed as percentage weight-in-volume (% w/v), volume-in-volume (% v/v), and weight-in-weight (% w/w).
Formulas for Concentration
-
Percent Weight-in-Volume (% w/v):
- % w/v = (mass of solute in grams / volume of solvent in mL) x 100.
-
Percent Volume-in-Volume (% v/v):
- % v/v = (volume of solute in mL / volume of solvent in mL) x 100.
-
Percent Weight-in-Weight (% w/w):
- % w/w = (mass of solute in grams / (mass of solute + mass of solvent in grams)) x 100.
Proof Strength
- Proof is based on 50% alcohol being considered 100 proof; always double the percentage strength.
- 100% alcohol equals 200 proof; 25% alcohol equals 50 proof.
- Proof gallon evaluates alcohol content for taxation purposes.
Parts Per Million (ppm)
- Expresses concentration in terms of parts per million, often used for dilute solutions.
- Example: Limit of Arsenic in ZnO is 6 ppm or 0.0006%.
Moles and Avogadro's Number
- A mole measures the number of particles; one mole equals 6.02214076 x 10²³ particles.
- Moles (n) computed as weight of substance (g) divided by molecular weight (g/mol).
Normality
- Normality (N) expresses the gram equivalent weights of solute per 1000 mL of solution.
- Normality relates to the number of equivalents based on the acidity or basicity of the solute.
Colligative Properties
- Properties depend on solute particle amount, not identity.
- Vapor Pressure Lowering: Adding a non-volatile solute decreases solvent's vapor pressure according to Raoult's Law.
- Boiling Point Elevation: Temperature increases until vapor pressure equals atmospheric pressure.
History of the Periodic Table
- Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier created the first extensive list, documenting 33 elements and distinguishing between metals and non-metals.
- Meyer and Mendeleev established the "First Periodic Law," noticing that physical and chemical properties are periodic functions of atomic weights.
- Henry Moseley contributed to the "Modern Periodic Table," arranging elements by atomic number instead of atomic weight.
- Johann Dobereiner identified triads of elements with similar properties, emphasizing that the atomic mass of the middle element approximated the average of the other two.
Metals vs. Non-metals
- Metals: Good conductors of heat and electricity, form basic oxides, lustrous, ductile, malleable, generally have higher density and melting points, tend to lose electrons easily (low ionization potential).
- Non-metals: Poor conductors, form acidic oxides, usually dull and brittle if solid, lower density and melting points compared to metals, tend to accept electrons (high electron affinity).
Structure of the Periodic Table
- The periodic table consists of 7 periods (horizontal rows) and 18 groups (vertical columns).
- Group A: Known as representative elements, include s and p block elements.
- Group B: Transition elements, found in the d block.
- Inner transition elements include the lanthanide and actinide series (f block).
Period Overview
- 1st Period: Shortest, includes 2 elements (s block).
- 2nd & 3rd Periods: Short periods with 8 elements (s & p blocks).
- 4th & 5th Periods: Long periods comprising 18 elements (d block).
- 6th Period: Features rare earth metals with 14 elements.
- 7th Period: Contains 18 elements and a series of actinides with 14 elements.
Modern Periodic Table Features
- Metallic elements are located on the left, non-metals on the right, and inert gases on the extreme right.
- Transition metals act as a bridge between the highly metallic alkali elements and non-metals, positioned centrally.
- Lanthanide and actinide series elements are kept separately.
Metalloids
- Elements showing properties intermediate between metals and non-metals include Silicon (Si), Germanium (Ge), Polonium (Po), Antimony (Sb), Arsenic (As), Tellurium (Te), and Boron (B).
- Mnemonic: "SiGe Po Sabi AsTe Baby"
Periodic Trends
- Electron Affinity: Energy released when an atom gains an electron; defines an atom’s tendency to accept electrons.
- Electronegativity: Measure of an atom's ability to attract electrons; metals typically have low electronegativity and are electropositive, while non-metals, especially halogens, have high electronegativity.
- Ionization Energy: Energy needed to remove an electron from a neutral atom; metals have low ionization potential, forming cations easily.
Trends in Atomic Size and Properties
- Atomic Radius: Decreases from left to right across a period and decreases from bottom to top within a group.
- Electronegativity, Ionization Energy, and Electron Affinity: Increase from left to right and from bottom to top across the periodic table, indicating non-metallic properties increase in that direction.
- Metallic Property: Decreases from left to right and increases from top to bottom in a group.
