Atomic Theory
-
States of Matter
-
Matter is everywhere
o Made up of particles- atoms, molecules or ions
o Has particle sin constant motion
o Occupies volume or space
o Has mass
1.1Nature of matter and chemical change
- 3 States of Matter
o Solid
Fixed volume
Fixed shape
Cannot be compressed
Attracted forces within the particles hold them together
Always vibrating in fixed position (constant motion)
o Liquid
Fixed volume
No fixed shape-adapts to the container it occupies
Cannot be compressed
Weaker forces than solids, particle around freer
Particles vibrate, rotate and translate by moving around
o Gas
No fixed volume
NO fixed Shape- expanding to cover the volume or space
available
Can be compressed
Weaker forces between molecule allows for particle to move
freely and faster than liquid
- Temperature
o The way these particles move depends on the temperature
More temp. = More kinetic energy= particle moving more
o Fahrenheit, Celsius and Kelvin (K)
Changes in State
o Temp changes during changes in state
o Ex. Ice is heated until the the right temp is reached at 0* C (273K).
Ice melts and the solid liquid equilibrium is set up
There is no temperature change during the state change
All energy being used to disrupt the attractive force within the
lattice structure freeing the molecules
o Boiling and Boiling are endothermic
Energy must be transferred from the surroundings to begin the
process for the water
Decomposition
Opposite of Synthesis
Single reactant decomposed into 2 products
Single Replacement
One element replaces another in a compound
Double Replacement
Reaction between ions in solution to form insoluble substances
and weak
Errors
-
Random
o Equally likely to be too high or too low
o Average of many trials reduces errors
o Better estimate of what the acutely value of the uncertainty is
o Graphs-lines of best fit (Trend lines) diffuse random errors
Systematic Errors
o Due to Experimental design or execution
o Same results with the same mistakes unless action taken
o Improve but analyzing area of mistake (FIRST FINDING IT OFCOURSE)
o Direction of the systematic errors
Percent Error
o My result-accepted value/ accepted value x 100
Accurate vs Precise
o Single Data Point
Accurate= it is close to the anticipated value
Precise= it has many decimals places/significant figures (1.05
less precise then 1.05342)
o Multiple Points of Data
Accurate=Average of data points are near the data point
Precision= data point sets are close together
The Atom
-
Chemical Properties
o Chemical properties depend on the number of ELECTRONS since
ISOTOPES have same # of electrons
o Isotopes have same chemical properties
Physical Properties
o Depend on mass of atom
o Isotopes are slightly different (Boiling point, density)
Natural Abundance
o All Elements are made up of many different isotopes
o The amount of each found naturally is the isotopes natural abundance
Light can figure out the identity and structure of unkown elemnts
o 1. Examination of light (emissions spectrum) given off when excited
with heat or electricity
Emission and Absorption
o All elements have different # of electrons
o Different energies around nucleus
o Different arraignment of electrons in the levels
Results in emitting unique spectra of energy when excited
o Electrons will move up energy levels when excited (heat or electricity)
For electron to jump, has to absorb the exact amount of energy
of the wavelength
When electron relaxes, releasing the energy in form of light
Electrons
-
Do not predict where finding of electron is but rather will it most likely
will be
o Shape are mathematical models based from the wave properties
o NEED TO KNOW- basic shape of orbitals to understand how bonds form
Electrons described by a series of numbers`
o
