  • Organic Chemistry
    Study of carbon and Carbon-related compounds.
  • "Organic Chemistry" Comes from the word ORGANISM.
  • Friedrish Wohler
    A German chemist, that disproved "Vitalism Theory".
  • In 1828, A German chemist disproved the "Vitalism Theory", called Wohler Synthesis. He was able to Isolate UREA from an inorg compound, AMMONIUM CYANATE.
  • Organic Compounds
    • Do not dissolve on water
    • Dissolve in organic solvents like ether, alcohol, benzene, cloroform
    • Low melting point, decompose on heating
    • Inflammable
    • Covalent, non-electrolytes
  • Inorganic Compounds
    • Dissolve in water
    • Do not dissolve in Organic solvents
    • High melting point and boiling point, does not decompose on heating
    • Non inflammable
    • Ionic, Electrolytes
  • Ability to Catenate - Catenation

    Carbon atoms link together to form chains of varying lenght, branched chains, and rings of different sizes
  • Uniqueness of Carbon
    It is able to form 4 covalent bonds (Tetravalent), with other carbon or other elements.
  • Atomic Structure
    Erwin Schrödinger
  • Elements - Fundamental building blocks of all substances
    • Atoms: Smallest particle of an element
    • Neutron: Neutral subatomic particle
    • Proton: Positively Charged subatomic particle (+1 charge)
    • Electron: Negatively Charged subatomic particle (-1 charge, weightless)
    • Nucleus: Center of an atom; contains proton and neutrons
  • Isotopes - Atoms that have the same number of protons but differing numbers of neutrons and different mass number.
  • Mass Number
    Number if proton plus neutrons
  • Atomic Number
    Number of Protons in Nucleus

    • also known as WAVE FUNCTION
  • S - Spherical
    P - Dumbbell

    f Complex
  • Distribution of Orbitals within shells
    • Each shell contains subshells known as ATOMIC ORBITALS
    • Electrons are said to Occupy orbitals in an atom
  • (Subshells -
    S, P, D, F)
    (No. of orbital of equal energy -
    1, 3, 5 , 7)
    (Maximum number of electrons -
    2, 6, 10, 14)
  • Aufbau Principle
    "Build Up"
    States that electrons fill lower energy atomic orbitals before filling higher energy ones.
  • Pauli's Exclusion Principle
    Maximum of 2 electron per orbital with opposite spin.
  • Hund's Rule
    Fill the orbitals singly before they pair up. (One at a time)
  • Principal QN - To determine the size of the particle
    Symbol - n
    Values- 1, 2, 3
  • Azimuthal or Angular -Subshell or sublevel, determines the shape
    Symbol - l
    Values - 0 to (n-1)
  • Magnetic - Orbitals, determine orientation
    Symbol - m or mL
    Values – -1 to +1
  • Spin - Direction of spin or orientation
    Symbol - S or ms
    values — -1/2 to +1/2
  • Electron Configuration
    Symbolic notation of the manner which electron of its atom are distributed over different atomic orbitals
    It is where the electrons are around a nucleus
  • Chemical Bonding
    Joining of two atoms in a stable arrangement
  • Octet rule
    (Tendency Among Atoms)
    Atoms react in a way that achieve valence of eight valence electrons.
  • Ionic bond
    (Transfer of electron) N + NM
    Bond between anion and cation
    May lose or gain enough electron to acquire a completely filled valencr shell
  • Covalent bond
    Sharing of electron
    NM+NM/NM+METALLOID

    Valence shell electrons of an atom are represented as dot
  • Kekule Structure
    Line Bond Structure
    Each shared electron is represented by line between the atom symbols
  • Lone pair electrons or non-bonding electrons
    Pair of valence electrons that are used for bonding
  • Multiple bond
    When 2 atoms share more than 1 pair electrons
  • Electronegativity
    Measure of the ability of an atom to attract
  • Solid Line
    Represents bond in the plane of page
  • Heavy weighed Line
