    Study Notes

    Units of Measurement

    • Measurements are used in everyday life.
    • Units are used in the metric and International System of Units (SI) to specify measurements.
    • The English system is used in the United States.
    • The metric system is used in most countries.
    • The SI system is used by scientists and is based on the metric system.

    Measurements

    • Length is measured using a meter stick in both the metric and SI systems.
    • Volume is measured in liters (L) in the metric system and cubic meters (m3) in the SI system.
    • Mass is measured in grams (g) in the metric system and kilograms (kg) in the SI system.
    • Temperature is measured in Celsius (°C) in the metric system and Kelvin (K) in the SI system.
    • Time is measured in seconds (s) in both the metric and SI systems.

    Mass

    • Mass of an object is the amount of matter in it.
    • Ionic compounds are represented using their Empirical Formulas.

    Chemical Formulas

    • Molecular Formula gives the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule.
    • Structural Formula shows how atoms in a molecule are bonded together.
    • Molecular Models include Ball-and-Stick Model and Space-Filling Model.

    Atomic Level View of Elements and Compounds

    • Atomic Elements are elements whose particles are single atoms.
    • Formula Mass is the sum of the masses of the atoms in a single molecule or formula unit.
    • Molar Mass is the mass of one mole of a substance, expressed in g/mol.

    Chemical Reactions

    • A chemical reaction is a process that transforms one set of substances into another.
    • Reactants are substances initially involved in a chemical reaction.
    • Products are substances produced by a chemical reaction.

    Chemical Equations

    • Chemical Equation is a shorthand way to describe a chemical reaction.
    • Net Ionic Equation is the chemical equation that shows only the ions that participate in the reaction.

    Chemical Bonds

    • Chemical Bonds hold atoms together in compounds.
    • Chemical bonds form due to attractions between protons and electrons of bonded atoms.
    • Chemical bonds lower the potential energy between charged particles in atoms.

    Types of Chemical Bonds

    • Ionic Bonds form when electrons are transferred, resulting in oppositely charged ions that attract each other.
    • Covalent Bonds form when atoms share electrons.
    • Metallic Bonds form between metal atoms.

    Intermolecular Forces

    • Intermolecular Forces (IMF) are weak attractions between molecules.
    • IMF affect the rate and outcome of chemical reactions.

    Types of Intermolecular Forces

    • London Dispersion Forces are weak interactions due to momentary changes in electron density in a molecule.
    • Dipole-dipole interactions are attractive forces between permanent dipoles of polar molecules.
    • Hydrogen Bonding is a strong type of dipole-dipole interaction that occurs between molecules containing hydrogen bonded to oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine.

    Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonding

    • Intermolecular hydrogen bond occurs between two molecules with hydrogen located between two electronegative groups.
