Chemistry: the study of the composition, structure, and properties of matter, the processes that matter undergoes, and the energy changes that accompany these processes. Composition refers to identifying the elements that are present in a substance. For example: water is composed of 11.2% hydrogen and 88.8% oxygen by mass Structure refers to specifically how the elements are combined to make a substance what it is. For example: in water, there are two hydrogen atoms bonded to a single oxygen atom like the structure shown here: H–O–H Properties refer to how a substance behaves: things like the temperature at which it would melt or freeze, how dense it is, or how it would react with another substance. For example: the freezing point of water is 0.0oC, water has a density of 1.0 g/mL, and water will react with sulfur trioxide to make sulfuric acid Branches of Chemistry: main areas of study within the field of chemistry Organic Physical Inorganic Analytical Theoretical Biochemistry The study of compounds that generally do not contain carbon is called _________________________________ chemistry. The identification of components and composition of materials is called _________________________________ chemistry. The study of substances and processes occurring in living things is called _________________________________ . The study of most carbon-containing compounds is called _________________________________ chemistry. The use of mathematics and computers to study chemical behavior is called _________________________________ chemistry. The study of properties and changes including energy changes of matter in is called _________________________________ chemistry. Since chemistry is the study of matter, we begin by defining matter. Matter: anything that has mass and takes up space (has a volume). Anything that is not energy is matter. Mass: a measure of how much matter is present. An element is a substance that can not be broken down into simpler substances. An element contains only one type of atoms. A compound is a substance that can be broken down into simpler substances and contains two or more different elements. An atom is the smallest amount of matter than can be identified as a specific element. An atom is made up of smaller pieces of matter (protons, neutrons and electrons). The periodic table is used to identify all of the known elements. When studying matter, we study properties of matter. Properties tell us something about the way the matter behaves or what it is like. Extensive Property: a property that depends upon how much matter is present. Examples include things like: mass, volume, length, etc… Intensive Property: a property that does not depend upon how much matter is present. Examples include things like boiling point, density, hardness, etc… Physical Property: a property that can be studied without changing the substance into a different substance. For example, we can study water to find its boiling point. We can find the temperature where water boils, but the water is still water. Chemical Property: a property that relates to how a substance changes into a different substance. For example, when iron rusts it becomes iron oxide (an orange solid). When studying matter, we also study changes in matter. Change: a change is an action-something is happening or is failing to happen now. Physical Change: a change that does not change the substance into a different substance. For example, breaking glass does not change the glass into a different substance. Chemical Change: a change that causes a substance to change into a different substance. For example, burning paper changes the paper into carbon dioxide and water. Properties versus Changes Property: a property is something that describes how a substance may behave, but it does not have to happen now. Change: a change is an action-something is happening or is failing to happen now. A physical property of glass is that it is rather brittle and can break (rather than bend). A physical change for glass is when we are actually breaking the glass. A chemical property of sodium is that it will react violently with water. A chemical change for sodium is when it is actually reacting with water. Physical versus Chemical and Properties versus Changes Underline any property or change that is chemical. Put a star next to anything that is a change. iron is hard butter is melting gold is inert lead is dense aluminum is malleable the egg is rotting copper sulfate is blue water boils at 100oC bacon is frying he is ripping the paper copper conducts electricity paper burns easily wax is melting sodium will react with water gold is expensive States of Matter There are four states of matter (three normal and one that requires special circumstances to maintain). Solid: particles are rigidly held in place and can not move about within the substance Liquid: particles are able to move about but they stay relatively close together Gas: particles move about and are relatively very far apart from one another Plasma: is a gaseous type of state where some of the atoms present have lost their electrons (gaseous atoms, ions and electrons are all present together). This is considered to be a high energy state of matter and if it loses energy it will revert to the gas state. Changing from one state to another is a physical change. The conditions when a substance changes from one state to another are physical properties. States of Matter Continued: Solid to Liquid Changing from a solid to a liquid is called melting or fusion and melting point is a physical property Liquid to Solid Changing from a liquid to a solid is called freezing or solidification and freezing point is a physical property (note that the melting point and the freezing point are the same temperature for a given substance). Liquid to Gas Changing from a liquid to a gas is called boiling or vaporization and boiling point is a physical property Gas to Liquid Changing from a gas to a liquid is called condensation Solid to Gas Changing from a solid to a gas is called sublimation Gas to Solid Changing from a gas to a solid is called deposition Pure Substance versus Mixtures A pure substance contains only one substance. Pure substances are either elements of pure compounds Mixtures contain more than one pure substance. Mixtures are either Homogeneous or Heterogeneous Homogenous Homogeneous mixtures are also called solutions. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that is uniform in composition (mixed at the atomic level-we usually say that one substance is dissolved in the other one). An example is sugar water-the sugar dissolves in the water and cannot be seen. Heterogeneous Heterogeneous mixtures are not uniform throughout (we can usually see that there are two or more substances present). An example is salt and pepper-we can see the pepper specs mixed with the salt crystals. The periodic table is broken down into three main categories of elements. There are seven periods (horizontal rows). The vertical columns are called groups. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Non-metals Metals Metaloids 11 Metals are elements that are: good conductors of heat good conductors of electricity can be drawn into a wire (called ductility) can be hammered into flat sheets (called malleability) Non-Metals are elements that are the opposite of metals: poor conductors of heat poor conductors of electricity (called insulators) are brittle if they are solids Metalloids are elements that have properties of both metals and non-metals Practice Questions: In which branch of chemistry is the focus studying the composition or makeup of a substance?
