  1. Chapter 1 • Matter and Measurement

  2. Matter Pure Substance Mixture Element Compound Homogeneous Heterogeneous Salt water Sandy water Iron Salt, NaCl Classification of matter

  3. Pure substances • Element • Cannot be converted to a simpler form by a chemical reaction. • Example hydrogen and oxygen • Compound • Combination of two or more elements in a definite, reproducible way. • Example water - H2O

  4. Mixtures • A combination of two or more pure substances. • Homogeneous - Uniform composition • Heterogeneous - Non-uniform composition • Which are homogeneous or heterogeneous? • Blood Kool-Aid Air • Gasoline Twinkie Salad Dressing

  5. Lab Techniques Filtration Distillation Chromatography Gas-liquid Chromatography

  6. What process is this called and what is it used for?

  7. Salt remains after all water is boiled off.

  8. Paper Chromatography • Chromatography is a method used to separate mixtures. • There is a mobile phase and a stationary phase. • There are many types of chromatography • TLC • GC • Gel Electrophoresis

  9. Gas-Liquid Chromatography

  10. SI Units • Many different systems for measuring the world around us have developed over the years. • People in the U.S. rely on the English System. • Scientists make use of SI units so that we all are speaking the same measurement language.

  11. Measurement in chemistry • Metric Units One base unit for each type of measurement. Use a prefix to change the size of unit. • Some common base units. • Type NameSymbol • Mass gram g • Length meter m • Volume liter L • Time second s • Energy joule J

  12. Metric prefixes • Changing the prefix alters the size of a unit. Prefix Symbol Factor mega M 106 1 000 000 kilo k 103 1 000 hecto h 102 100 dekada 101 10 base - 100 1 deci d 10-1 0.1 centi c 10-2 0.01 milli m 10-3 0.001 micro µ 10-6 0.000001 nano n 10-9 0.000000001

  13. mg g g kg Example. Metric conversion • How many milligrams are in a kilogram? • 1 kg = 1000 g • 1 g = 1000 mg • 1 kg x 1000 x 1000 • = 1 000 000 mg

  14. Converting units • Factor label method/Dimensional Analysis • Regardless of conversion, keeping track of units makes thing come out right • Must use conversion factors • - The relationship between two units • Canceling out units is a way of checking that your calculation is set up right!

  15. Certain Digits Uncertain Digit Significant figures • Method used to express accuracy and precision. • You can’t report numbers better than the method used to measure them. • 67.2 units = three significant figures

  16. Significant figures • 255 • 25.5 • 2.55 • 0.255 • 0.0255 These numbers All have three significant figures!

  17. Significant figures: Rules for zeros • Leading zeros are notsignificant. 0.421 - three significant figures Leading zero Captive zeros are significant. 4012 - four significant figures Captive zero Trailing zeros are significant when there is a decimal point. 114.20 - five significant figures Trailing zero

  18. Significant figures • In science, all of our numbers are either measured or exact. • Exact - Infinite number of significant figures. • Measured - the tool used will tell you the level of significance. Varies based on the tool. • Example • Ruler with lines at 1/16” intervals. • A balance might be able to measure to the nearest 0.1 grams.

  19. Significant figures:Rules for zeros • Scientific notation - can be used to clearly express significant figures. • A properly written number in scientific notation always has the the proper number of significant figures. 0.00321 = 3.21 x 10-3 Three Significant Figures

  20. Example • 257 mg • \__ 3 significant figures • 120 miles • \__ 2 significant figures • 0.002 30 kg • \__ 3 significant figures • 23,600.01 $/yr • \__ 7 significant figures

  21. 123.45987 g + 234.11 g 357.57 g 805.4 g - 721.67912 g 83.7 g Significant figures and calculations • Addition and subtraction • Report your answer with the same number of digits to the right of the decimal point as the number having the fewest to start with.

  22. Significant figures and calculations • Multiplication and division. • Report your answer with the same number of digits as the quantity have the smallest number of significant figures. • Example. Density of a rectangular solid. • 25.12 kg / [ (18.5 m) ( 0.2351 m) (2.1m) ] • = 2.8 kg / m3 • (2.1 m - only has two significant figures)

  23. Rounding off numbers • After calculations, you may need to round off. • If the first insignificant digit is 5 or more, • - you round up • If the first insignificant digit is 4 or less, • - you round down.

  24. Rounding off If a set of calculations gave you the following numbers and you knew each was supposed to have four significant figures then - 2.5795035 becomes 2.580 34.204221 becomes 34.20 1st insignificant digit

  25. Extensive and intensive properties • Extensive properties • Depend on the quantity of sample measured. • Example - mass and volume of a sample. • Intensive properties • Independent of the sample size. • Properties that are often characteristic of the substance being measured. • Examples - density, melting and boiling points.

  26. Physical properties • Properties that do not involve substances changing into another substance. • Examples • color density • odor melting point • taste boiling point • feel compressibility

  27. Chemical properties • Properties that involve substances changing into another substance. • Chemical Reaction - one or more substances are changed into other substances. • Example A chemical property of wood is it’s ability to burn - combustion. wood + oxygen carbon dioxide + water + heat ReactantsProducts The reactants and products are very different.

  28. Mass Density = Volume Density • Density is an intensive property of a substance based on two extensive properties. • Common units are g / cm3 or g / mL. • g / cm3 g / cm3 • Air 0.0013 Bone 1.7 - 2.0 • Water 1.0 Urine 1.01 - 1.03 • Gold 19.3 Gasoline 0.66 - 0.69 cm3 = mL

  29. Chapter 2 Atoms, Molecules and Ions

  30. Dalton’s atomic theory • All matter is composed of atoms -- the smallest particle of an element that takes part in a chemical reaction. • All atoms of an element are alike. • Compounds are combinations of atoms of one or more elements. The relative number of atoms each element is always the same. • Atoms cannot be created or destroyed by a chemical reaction. They only change how they combine with each other.

  31. Radioactivity • One of the pieces of evidence for the fact that atoms are made of smaller particles came from the work of Marie Curie (1876-1934). • She discovered radioactivity, the spontaneous disintegration of some elements into smaller pieces.

  32. Types of Radioactive Emissions

  33. Structure of the atom • Atoms have a specific arrangement. • Nucleus Small, dense, positively charged • in the center of an atom. • Contains protons (+) and neutrons • Electrons Surround the nucleus. • Negative charge.

  34. Atomic number Atom symbol Atomic weight Atomic Number, Z • All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons in the nucleus, Z 13 Al 26.981

  35. Mass Number, A • Mass Number(A) = # protons + # neutrons • A boron atom can have A = 5 p + 5 n = 10 amu

  36. Hydrogen Isotopes Hydrogen has 3 isotopes 1 proton and 0 neutrons, protium 1 1H 1 proton and 1 neutron, deuterium 21H 1 proton and 2 neutrons, tritium radioactive 31H
