The Study of Chemistry
What is Chemistry?
Chemistry is the study of the properties and behavior of
matter.
Matter – anything that occupies space and has mass.
Chapter 1
2
Classification of Matter
The basic difference between these states is the
distance between the “bodies.”
• Gas – bodies are far apart and in rapid motion.
• Liquid – bodies closer together, but still able to
move past each other.
• Solid – bodies are closer still and are now held
in place in a definite arrangement.

Classification of Matter
Pure Substances and Mixtures
Mixture – combination of two or more substances
in which each substance retains its own
chemical identity.
– Homogeneous mixture – composition of this mixture
is consistent throughout.
• Solution (Air, gasoline)
– Heterogeneous mixture – composition of this mixture
varies throughout the mixture.
Chapter 1

Classification of Matter
Separation of Mixtures
Mixtures can be separated by physical means.
– Filtration.
– Chromatography.
– Distillation.

Classification of Matter
Pure Substances and Mixtures
It is also possible for a homogeneous substance to be
composed of a single substance – pure substance.
• Element – A substance that can not be separated into
simpler substances by chemical means.
• Atom – the smallest unit of an element that retains a
substances chemical activity.
Chapter 1

Classification of Matter
Elements
• There are 114 elements known.
• Each element is given a unique chemical symbol
(one or two letters).
– Carbon C, Nitrogen N, Titanium Ti
– Notice that the two letter symbols are always capital letter
then lower case letter because:
• CO – carbon and oxygen
• Co – element cobalt

Classification of Matter
Pure Substances and Mixtures
It is also possible for a homogeneous substance to
be composed of a single substance – pure substance.
• Compound – A substance composed of two or more
elements united chemically in definite proportions.
Chapter 1
11
Classification of Matter
Compounds
• Formed by combining elements.
• The proportions of elements in compounds are the
same irrespective of how the compound was formed.
Law of Constant Composition (or Law of Definite
Proportions):
– The composition of a pure compound is always the same,
regardless of its source.

Properties of Matter
Physical and Chemical Changes
Physical Property – A property that can be measured
without changing the identity of the substance.
Example: color, odor, density

Properties of Matter
Physical and Chemical Changes
Intensive properties – independent of sample size.
Extensive properties - depends on the quantity of the
sample (sample size).

Properties of Matter
Physical and Chemical Changes
Physical change – the change in the physical
properties of a substance.
– Physical appearance changes, but the substances
identity does not.
Water (ice)  Water (liquid)
Chapter 1

Properties of Matter
Physical and Chemical Changes
Chemical change (chemical reaction) – the
transformation of a substance into a chemically
different substance.
– When pure hydrogen and pure oxygen react
completely, they form pure water.

Units of Measurement
SI Units
• There are two types of units:
– fundamental (or base) units;
– derived units.
• There are 7 base units in the SI system.
• Derived units are obtained from the 7 base SI units.
• Example:
units of distance
Units of velocity 
units of time
meters

seconds
 m/s

Temperature
Kelvin Scale
Used in science.
Same temperature increment as Celsius scale.
Lowest temperature possible (absolute zero) is zero Kelvin.
Absolute zero: 0 K = -273.15oC.
Celsius Scale
Also used in science.
Water freezes at 0oC and boils at 100oC.
To convert: K = oC + 273.15.
Fahrenheit Scale
Not generally used in science.
Water freezes at 32oF and boils at 212oF.

Units of Measurement
Volume
• The units for volume are given by (units of length)3.
– i.e., SI unit for volume is 1 m3.
• A more common volume unit is the liter (L)
– 1 L = 1 dm3 = 1000 cm3 = 1000 mL.
• We usually use 1 mL = 1 cm3.
Chapter 1
25
Units of Measurement
Mass
Mass is the measure of the amount of material in an
object.
– This is not the same as weight which is dependant on gravity.
Chapter 1
26
Uncertainty in Measurement
• All scientific measures are subject to error.
• These errors are reflected in the number of figures
reported for the measurement.
• These errors are also reflected in the observation
that two successive measures of the same quantity
are different.
Chapter 1
27
Uncertainty in Measurement
Precision and Accuracy
• Measurements that are close to the “correct” value are
accurate.
• Measurements which are close to each other are
precise.
• Measurements can be
– accurate and precise;
– precise but inaccurate;
– neither accurate nor precise.

Uncertainty in Measurement
Significant Figures
• The number of digits reported in a measurement
reflect the accuracy of the measurement and the
precision of the measuring device.
• The last digit to the right in a number is taken to be
inexact.
• In any calculation, the results are reported to the
fewest significant figures (for multiplication and
division) or fewest decimal places (addition and
subtraction).
Chapter 1
30
Uncertainty in Measurement
Significant Figures
• Non-zero numbers are always significant.
• Zeros between non-zero numbers are always significant.
• Zeros before the first non-zero digit are not significant. Zeros at
the end of the number after a decimal place are significant.
• Zeros at the end of a number before a decimal place are
ambiguous. For this book, it a decimal point is used the zeros
are significant.
– 10,300 has 3 significant figures.
– 10,300. has 5 significant figures.
• Physical constants are “infinitely” significant.
Chapter 1
31
Uncertainty in Measurement
Significant Figures
• Multiplication / Division
– The result must have the same number of significant figures as
the least accurately determined data
Example:
12.512 (5 sig. fig.)
5.1 (2 sig. fig.)
12.512 x 5.1 = 64
Answer has only 2 significant figures
Chapter 1
32
Uncertainty in Measurement
Significant Figures
• Addition / Subtraction.
– The result must have the same number of digits to the right of
the decimal point as the least accurately determined data.
Example:
15.152 (5 sig. fig., 3 digits to the right),
1.76 (3 sig. fig., 2 digits to the right),
7.1 (2 sig. fig., 1 digit to the right).
15.152 + 1.76 + 7.1 = 24.0.
24.0 (3 sig. fig., but only 1 digit to the right of the decimal point).

Uncertainty in Measurement
Rounding rules
• If the leftmost digit to be removed is less than 5,
the preceding number is left unchanged.
“Round down.”
• If the leftmost digit to be removed is 5 or greater,
the preceding number is increased by 1.
“Round up.”

In dimensional analysis always ask three questions:
What data are we given?
What quantity do we need?
What conversion factors are available to take us from
what we are given to what we need?

Dimensional Analysis
Convert the quantity from 2.3 x 10-8 cm to nanometers (nm)
First we will need to determine the conversion factors
Centimeter (cm)  Meter (m)
Meter (m)  Nanometer (nm)
Or
1 cm = 0.01 m
1 x 10-9 m = 1 nm

Convert the quantity from 2.3 x 10-8 cm to nanometers (nm)
1 cm = 0.01 m

Now, we need to setup the equation where the cm cancels and nm is
left.
