  • Matter
    Anything that occupies space and has mass
  • Substance
    A form of matter that has a definite composition and distinct properties
  • Chemistry
    The study of matter and the changes it undergoes
  • Mixture
    A combination of two or more substances in which the substances retain their distinct identities
  • Types of mixtures
    • Homogeneous mixture - composition of the mixture is the same throughout
    • Heterogeneous mixture - composition is not uniform throughout
  • Examples of mixtures
    • soft drink, solder
    • cement, iron filings in sand
    • Milk
  • Physical means
    Can be used to separate a mixture into its pure components
  • Examples of physical separation methods
    • magnet
    • distillation
  • Element
    A substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical means
  • Elements
    • 118 elements have been identified
    • 82 elements occur naturally on Earth
    • 36 elements have been created by scientists
  • Examples of elements
    • gold, aluminum, lead, oxygen, carbon, sulfur
    • technetium, americium, seaborgium
  • Compound
    A substance composed of atoms of two or more elements chemically united in fixed proportions
  • Compounds
    Can only be separated into their pure components (elements) by chemical means
  • Examples of compounds
    • lithium fluoride
    • quartz
    • dry icecarbon dioxide
  • Molecule
    An aggregate of two or more atoms in a definite arrangement held together by chemical forces
  • Types of molecules
    • Diatomic molecule - contains only two atoms
    • Polyatomic molecule - contains more than two atoms
  • Examples of diatomic molecules
    • H2, N2, O2, Br2, HCl, CO
  • Examples of polyatomic molecules
    • O3, H2O, NH3, CH4
  • Ion
    An atom, or group of atoms, that has a net positive or negative charge
  • Types of ions
    • Cation - ion with a positive charge
    • Anion - ion with a negative charge
  • Examples of ions
    • Na+, Cl-, Ca2+, O2-, Al3+, N3-
    • OH-, CN-, NH4+, NO3-
  • Types of ions
    • Monatomic ion - contains only one atom
    • Polyatomic ion - contains more than one atom
  • Common Ions Shown on the Periodic Table
  • Ionic compounds
    Consist of a combination of cations and anions
  • The formula is usually the same as the empirical formula
  • The sum of the charges on the cation(s) and anion(s) in each formula unit must equal zero
  • The most reactive metals (green) and the most reactive nonmetals (blue) combine to form ionic compounds
  • Covalent bond
    Attraction between the nucleus of the 1st atom and the electrons of the 2nd atom; and the attraction of the nucleus of the 2nd atom and the electrons of the 1st atom. Sharing of electrons. Atoms of non-metals combine. Electronegativity difference is 0 to < 2.
  • Electronegativity
    The ability of an atom to attract toward itself the electrons in a chemical bond
  • Fluorine has the highest electronegativity
  • Properties of covalent compounds
    Intermolecular forces of attraction is weak, gas, liquid or low-mp solid, insoluble in H2O (mostly), aqueous solutions do not conduct electricity
  • Bond energy
    Amount of energy involved when bond is broken, amount of energy released when bond is formed, strong bond; ↑ bond energy
  • Bond length
    Distance between the nuclei of atoms forming the bond, strong bond; ↓ bond length
  • Bond order
    Number of bonds between atoms, single, double or triple, strong bond; ↓ bond length; ↑ bond order
  • Ionic bond
    Attraction between cations and anions, atoms of metal and nonmetal combine, atoms with a large difference in electronegativities (≥2), metals lose electrons (cations), nonmetals gain electrons (anions) and the total net charge is 0
  • Valence electrons
    The outer shell electrons of an atom that participate in chemical bonding
  • Valence electron configuration by group
    • 1A - ns1
    • 2A - ns2
    • 3A - ns2np1
    • 4A - ns2np2
    • 5A - ns2np3
    • 6A - ns2np4
    • 7A - ns2np5
  • Electron configuration
    How the electrons are distributed among the various atomic orbitals in an atom
  • Order of orbitals (filling) in multi-electron atom: 1s < 2s < 2p < 3s < 3p < 4s < 3d < 4p < 5s < 4d < 5p < 6s
  • Outermost subshell being filled with electrons
