What is Chemistry?
structure and behavior of matter
What is a value?
Quantitative description that has a unit and number.
Micro
u 10^-6
Milli
m 10^-3
Centi
c 10^-2
Kilo
k 10^3
Mega
M 10^6
Mass
amount of matter in an object
Matter
anything that occupies space
Weight
Earth its the measure of the force of gravitational attraction between the object and Earth
Celcius
c-0-100
Farenheight
32 and 212
Kelvin
0 K lowest point
Model
understand core concepts;simplified reality
Kinetic Molecular Theory
All matter is composed of particles and all particles are in motion (varying speeds)
How do solids, liquids, and gases differ?
Freedom of motion of their particles and how strongly the particles attract
Solid
constant shape and volume, always moving direction and velocity vary
Liquid
Constant volume, variable shape, faster than solid
Gas
Variable shape and volume, large avg. distance between particles little attraction
Elements
114+ building block of matter, cannot be chemically converted into simplar substance
Metals
Shiny, metallic, conduct heat well and electric currents into solid form
Malleable
Gold Au can be hammered into sheets without breaking
Hg + Br
Liquid
Noble Gases
H, O, N, F, Ci
Neuron, proton, electron
Neuron= 0 charge Proton= +1 p+ Electron= -1 charge
A^Z X
a=mass number which is on the bottom in periodic table and is protons + neutrons; Z is Atomic #,can vary & is # of protons
Classify Matter-Constant Comp, chemical formula to describe?
No=Mixture Yes-can it be with a single symbol Yes- Element H2 no=compound H20
Covalent Bond
Link between 2 atoms due to the sharing of two electrons 2 nonmetallic elements
Non-polar Covalent
Electrons share equally there is an even distribution of the - charge for the electrons in the bond no partial charges of atom
Ions
charged particles due to a loss or gain of electrons
Cation
particles lose 1 or more electrons leaving them with a positive overall charge
Anion
particles gain one or more electrons leaving them with a negative overall charge
Isotopes
atoms with same atomic # but different mass #, atoms with same # of protons & electrons in uncharged atom but different # of neutrons,
Isotop is also
atoms of the same element with different masses
