Table of Contents
What is Chemistry?
Chemistry is the branch of science concerned with the understanding of matter; the substances it is composed of and their properties, as well as the ways in which they interact and change to form new substances.

Matter

Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains; a way of quantifying matter. Matter exists in three physical states.
  • Solid matter with fixed shape and volume (rigid)
  • Liquid matter with a fixed volume but indefinite shape
    • Takes on the shape of the container it is in
  • Gas matter without a fixed shape or volume
    • Conforms to the volume and shape of its container
Physical and Chemical Properties
  • Physical property characteristics that can be measured and observed without changing the chemical makeup of the substance
    • Examples: color, melting point, boiling point, density, etc.
  • Physical change a substance changes its physical appearance but does not change identity
    • Changes in state (e.g., liquid to gas, solid to liquid) are all physical changes
  • Chemical property any property that becomes evident during a chemical reaction
    • Examples: pH, corrosiveness, etc.
  • Chemical change (aka chemical reactions) a substance is transformed into a chemically different substance
Mixtures
Mixtures are combinations of two or more substances in which each substance keeps its chemical identity. Mixtures can be separated into two or more substances.
  • Heterogenous mixtures mixture that is divided into different regions of appearance and properties
    • Results from components not being distributed uniformly
  • Homogenous mixtures mixture that is uniform throughout without any visible separations
    • Solutions are homogenous mixtures
      • Where a solid (the solute) is dissolved in a liquid (the solvent)
Elements and Compounds
Pure substances have definite and consistent composition and are composed of elements or compounds.
  • Element - substance that cant be broken down into other substances by chemical means
  • Compound substance formed from two or more chemical elements that are chemically bonded together
  • Law of definite proportions
    • Pure compounds always contain exactly the same proportions of elements by mass
Energy
Energy is the capacity to do wok.
  • Kinetic energy energy possessed by an object due to its motion
  • Potential energy energy stored in matter because of its position or location
    • Something suspended in the air has higher potential energy than something sitting on the ground
  • Total Energy = potential energy + kinetic energy
  • Lower energy states are more stable in nature
  • Law of conservation of energy
    • Energy cant be created or destroyedbut it can be transformed
      • Example: potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy
    • Energy is always conserved
Scientific Method
The scientific method is a technique for investigation that is used to answer scientific questions.
  • Hypothesis - a proposed explanation made on observations or limited evidence that serves as the starting point for further investigation
  • Theory explanation of general principles of a phenomena that has been repeatedly tested and observed
  • Fact indisputable truth
  • Steps in scientific approach
    • Observations, Hypothesis, Experiment, Development of a model or theory, Further experimentation
Measurements
Measured quantities consist of a number and a unit.
  • Units are standardized in the form of the International System called SI units
  • Units have associated prefixes to make them easier to use and reports

Conversion factors a mathematical multiplier used to convert a quantity - photo 3

  • Conversion factors a mathematical multiplier used to convert a quantity expressed in one set of units into an equivalent quantity expressed in
    • Example: 1 yard = 3 feet (10 yard = 30 feet)

Scientific Notation

  • Scientific notation is a way of handling very large or very small numbers
