Study Notes
Mixtures and Pure Substances
-
Mixtures are substances with varying compositions.
- Heterogeneous mixtures have components that can be identified.
- Colloids appear heterogeneous but behave homogeneously under testing.
- Homogeneous mixtures (solutions) have a uniform composition.
-
Pure Substances have a uniform composition.
- Elements consist of only one type of atom.
- Compounds are made of molecules, which are combinations of two or more elements.
Phases of Matter
- Solid: Defined shape and little to no molecular movement, rigid structure.
- Liquid: Molecular movement, no defined shape due to loose structure.
- Gas: High molecular movement, looser structure than liquid.
- Plasma: Very high molecular movement due to heat, molecules absorb and release energy, glowing color.
Phase Transitions
- Melting: Solid to liquid due to added heat.
- Evaporation: Liquid to gas due to added heat, breaking molecular bonds.
- Ionization: Gas to plasma due to added heat, charging molecules into ions.
- Recombination (Deionization): Plasma to gas due to removed heat, returning ions to a ground state.
- Condensation: Gas to liquid due to energy transfer, forming bonds.
- Freezing: Liquid to solid due to energy transfer, reforming bonds.
- Sublimation: Solid to gas due to added energy, skipping the liquid phase.
- Deposition: Gas to solid due to energy transfer, forming clumps of gas molecules.
Properties of Matter
- Physical Property: Measurable and observable by the five senses.
- Chemical Property: Assessed from the chemical structure and processes.
- Extensive Property: Dependent on the physical properties of the material.
- Intensive Property: Independent of the physical properties of the material.
Food Additives
- Substances added to food and beverages for flavor and appearance.
- Active ingredients: Substances that are biologically active.
Cleaning Agents
- Used to remove dirt, dust, stains, clutter, and foul odor.
- Surfactants: Chemical agents that help clean surfaces with oil, stains, and dirt.
- Bleaching agents: Formulations that cause whitening or lightening.
- Disinfectants: Substances that reduce or eliminate harmful microbes.
Types of Cleaning Agents
- General purpose cleaners: Weakly alkaline, for various uses.
- Bathroom cleaners: Designed for bathroom surfaces.
- Special surface cleaners: Designed for specific surfaces like glass, vinyl, carpets, and upholstery.
- Stain and deposit removers: Designed to remove spots.
Classifications of Cosmetics
- Lotions: Moisturize and soften skin.
- Deodorants: Prevent and remove unpleasant body smells.
- Perfumes: Impart a fragrant odor.
- Shaving creams: Soften hair stands for easy removal.
- Toothpaste: Cleanse and polish teeth, freshen breath.
- Shampoos: Cleanse hair.
Iron Formation
- Primarily formed through hydrogen fusion, helium burning, and carbon fusion in stars.
Alchemy
- Protoscience that aimed to purify substances and create new materials.
- Legendary goal of transforming base metals into gold and platinum.
Niels Bohr
- Developed the planetary model of the atom, building on Rutherford's work.
- Made significant contributions to understanding atomic structure and quantum physics.
Helium Formation
- Primary product of the proton-proton chain reaction.
- Neutrinos, photons, and positrons are by-products of this process.
Helium Burning
- Red supergiants undergo helium burning early in their life cycle.
Empedocles
- Proposed that all matter is composed of four fundamental elements: earth, water, air, and fire.
- This idea is mirrored in classical alchemical elements.
Explosive Nucleosynthesis
- Occurs during explosive events in stars, like supernovae.
- Extreme temperatures and pressures allow for rapid creation of heavy elements.
- Nickel and silicon are produced during the explosion.
Chemical Bonding
- Carbon monoxide (CO): Triple bond between carbon and oxygen atoms.
- Acetone (C₃H₆O): Single bonds and a carbonyl (C=O) bond.
- Hydrogen diatom (H₂): Single bond between two hydrogen atoms.
Mechanical Energy
- Situational: It depends on the context and movement of the object.
- Changes Quickly: It can fluctuate based on factors like velocity and position.
- Contained within any matter: Every object possesses mechanical energy.
Bohr's Orbital Levels
- Refer to Niels Bohr's model of the atom, which describes electrons moving in fixed orbits around the nucleus.
De Broglie's Wave Property of Atoms
- Introduces the idea that particles, like electrons, exhibit wave-like properties.
