CHEM 111 Fall 2012: OWLBook Chapter 2 OWL Assignments Coming Due this Weekend!! Be sure to review units and pre-fixes on your own. This should be material you covered in high school science.
X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X Accuracy and Precision • Accuracy = how close you are to the known value • Precision = how reproducible (similar to each other) your results are
Chapter 2: Elements and Compounds • Atomic Structure • Elements and Isotopes • The Periodic Table • Covalent Compounds • Naming • Ions and Ionic Compounds • Naming
Atomic Structure • Protons: • Determine the identity of the element • Neutrons • With protons in the nucleus • Stabilize the nucleus (or make it unstable-radioactive) • Result in different isotopes • Electrons • Exist outside of the nucleus • Alter the overall charge on an atom • Adding or subtracting them makes ions
Alpha Particle Scattering-helped determine the structure of the atom
Atomic Symbols How many protons, neutrons, electrons are in:
Isotopes & Atomic Weight • Every form of a unique element is one of its isotopes • Some elements only have one isotope. • Remember-protons are what make an element • Isotopes are forms of an element with different masses • Adding or subtracting neutrons from the nucleus makes isotopes • Some isotopes are stable • Some are unstable • Radioactive
The Periodic Table Groups, Periods, Main Group (A), Lanthanide & Actinide Elements, Metals, Non-Metals, Metaloids (semi-metals), Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Transition Elements (B), Halogens, Noble (“inert”) gases. What is an allotrope?
Covalent Compounds • Compounds are formed when two or more elements join in a defined ratio • Covalent compounds consist of elements held together by covalent bonds • Covalent bonds are bonds where electrons are shared between atoms • The atoms don’t have a positive of negative charge on them • Some are named systematically, some have long used “historical” names.
Empirical and Molecular Formula • Empirical formula has the ratio of atoms correct, but not necessarily the absolute number of each • HO • CF2 • Molecular formula has the absolute number of each atom in the molecule • H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) • C2F4 (Teflon monomer)
Types of Molecular Models Butanol Wedge and Dash Ball and Stick • C4H10O1 • Formula • Structural Formula
Naming Covalent Compounds • Binary, non-metal compounds • Name first element (use prefix if needed) • Name second element, using a prefix if needed • Some have historical names that are more commonly used
H2O • CO • CO2 • UF6 • SiO2 • PF5
Naming Inorganic Acids (see trends?)(think about other names you may know for these)
Ions and Ionic Compounds • Atoms normally have zero net charge • # of electrons = # protons • Ions have gained or lost electrons • Ions can form from any isotope • Ions have nothing to do with the nucleus, only the electrons.
Some Monoatomic Ions What do the numbers mean? What is a cation? What is an anion? What trends or patterns do we see? Are these all the monoatomic ions there are?
Polyatomic Ions (covalently bonded atoms that carry a charge amongst the whole group)
Excuse me, Sir, but how many of these things are we going to have to know? My brain’s turning to Jell-O here!
Formulas and Naming Ionic Compounds • Ions can have charge, but ionic compounds should have a net neutral charge • One can have Empirical and Molecular Formulas for ionic compounds • Instead of pre-fixes, IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) conventions are used.
Naming……. • The name of the cation (+) comes first. • If it has more than one possible charge, that number comes next • The name of the anion comes second. • CaF2 • LiF • Fe2O3 • Formulas • Remember, the charges MUST balance. • Use subscripts to make the charge balance. • Calcium Chloride • Zinc Sulfate • Calcium Nitrate • Magnesium Phosphate
