Bellwork: Friday, September 21st • How are the elements on the periodic table organized?
Elements & Compounds Chapter 3.4
Periodic Table: History • Dmitri Mendeleev first began to organize the elements by similarities in mass. • He was the first one to create a periodic table, though we no longer organize it by atomic mass
Periodic Table Today • Arrange by atomic number (number of protons) • Organizes elements into a grid of horizontal rows called periods and vertical columns called groups or families • Elements in the same group have similar chemical and physical properties
Elements- pure substances that cannot be separated into simpler substances by physical or chemical means • 92 naturally occurring • Others have been developed by scientists (synthetic) • Not equally abundant • Examples: 75% of universe is hydrogen and oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen make up 90% of the human body and francium is the least abundant element with only 20g total in the Earth’s crust • Each has a unique chemical name and symbol
Element Symbols • Symbols are 1, 2, or 3 letters • First letter is ALWAYS capitalized • Remaining letters are ALWAYS lowercase • Universally accepted system so that scientists can communicate
What elements do YOU need to know? • 4-5 quizzes • 3 announced • 1-2 unannounced • Quiz Monday, 24th (Actinium –Hydrogen) • Quiz Wednesday, 26th (Iodine-potassium) • Quiz Friday, 28th(Radium-Zirconium)
Compounds • Made up of 2 or more different elements that are chemically combined • Most matter exists in this form • 10 million known compounds • New ones are created at a rate of 100,000/year • Can be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means • More stable than individual elements
Identifying the number of atoms in a compound: • Coefficient: A number that comes in front of a chemical formula, indicates how many molecules of that compound you have. • Examples: 4CO23H2O • Subscripts: a number that is below the elements listed in the compound, indicates how many of each element you have. • These numbers only apply to the number in FRONT of them. • Examples: 4CO23H2O
Let’s Practice! • Figure out how many atoms are in each compound!
Bellwork: Monday, September 24th • Determine how many atoms are present in the following compounds: • 1. H3PO4 • 2. NH4H2PO4 • 3. 3CaCrO4 • 4. 4K2Cr2O7
Law of Definite Proportions • A compound is always composed of the same elements in the same proportion by mass • The same amounts of the elements in a compound can be expressed by percent mass x 100
Example Problem: • A 200.0g sample of sugarcane contains 32.5g of hydrogen. What is the percent by mass of hydrogen in the compound?
Law of Multiple Proportions • The same elements can form more than one compound • Happens if different compounds have different mass compositions • Example: Water and Hydrogen Peroxide Mass ratio of compound I Mass ratio of compound II *Look at the example on page 89*
