Title: Introduction to Chemistry
1Introduction to Chemistry
2Chemistry and Matter
- Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes
that it undergoes.
3Matter and its Characteristics
- Matter anything that has mass and takes up
space.
4Matter and its Characteristics
- Mass and Weight
- Mass the amount of matter that makes up an
object. - Weight the amount of matter in an object AND
the effect of Earths gravitational pull on that
matter. - The mass of an object DOES NOT change with
location - The weight of an object DOES change if the force
of gravity changes. (Things weigh less on the
moon because the moons gravity is lower than
earths.)
5Scientific Method
- The Scientific Method is an organized plan used
to gather, organize and share information.
6Scientific Method
Make an Observation (Ask a Question) Uses the
senses (sight, hearing, taste, touch, smell)
7Scientific Method
- Develop a Hypothesis
- A Prediction
- An educated guess
- Developed in an attempt to answer a question.
- Must be testable.
8Scientific Method
- Test the Hypothesis
- Perform an Experiment, gather data.
- Qualitative Data information that describes
color, odor, shape, or some other physical
characteristic. - Quantitative Data numerical information telling
how much, how little, how fast, etc.
9Scientific Method
Analyze Data
10Scientific Method
Draw Conclusions
11Scientific Method
If the data does not support the hypothesis,
revise (change) the hypothesis.
12Scientific Method
Develop a Theory
13Scientific Method
- Theory
- Developed after MANY, MANY experiments have
supported the hypothesis - Explains the question or observation.
14Scientific Method
Whats the difference between a Scientific
Theory and a Scientific Law?
15Scientific Method
Theory Explains the question or observation
weve made.
16Scientific Method
- Scientific Law
- Summarizes a pattern found in nature
- Does NOT explain the observation or question.
17Experimentation
Controlled Experiment In a controlled
experiment, there are two groups
Control Group a group or material that all
conditions (except the independent variable) are
identical to the experimental group.
18Experimentation
Controlled Experiment In a controlled
experiment, there are two groups
Experimental Group the group or material
with which you are deliberately changing the
independent variable.
19Experimentation
In an experiment, there are two variables
- Independent Variable the condition that is
controlled (and changed) by the scientist
Manipulated Variable. Graphed on the X-Axis of a
graph. - Dependent Variable the result of the change in
the independent variable. Graphed on the Y-Axis
of a graph. - Remember In a controlled experiment, Only ONE
independent variable is changed at a time.
20Types of Research
- Pure Research Research that seeks only to gain
knowledge.
- Applied Research Research that seeks to solve a
problem.
21Technology
- Technology is the practical use of scientific
information. It is used to make improvements in
human life and the world around us.
22Data Analysis
23Units of Measurement
- Scientists are able to communicate
internationally because they all use the same
units the International System of Units (SI).
24Metric (SI) Prefixes
After you learn the base units, you need to
understand the prefixes.
Example 1 kilogram means 1000 grams.
25Volume
- Volume is how much space an object takes up.
- The metric unit for volume we normally use in
chemistry is the Liter. A liter is approximately
equal to one quart. - 1 L 1 dm3
- 1 ml 1 cm3
26Density
- Density is mass divided by volume.
Units g/cm3
- Density of water is 1 g/cm3
27Density Lab
Required Materials
Triple-beam balance Graduated Cylinder cm
Ruler water Objects to be measured
28Temperature
- In science we use two Temperature Scales
- Celsius Scale uses the freezing point and
boiling point of water. - Freezing point of water 0C
- Boiling point of water 100C
- Kelvin Scale uses absolute zero
- K C 273
- Freezing point of water 273 K
- Boiling point of water 373 K
29Scientific Notation
In science, we sometimes use very large or very
small numbers. These numbers are hard to write
so
We use Scientific Notation to make writing these
numbers easier.
30Scientific Notation
- Multiplying Exponents
- (1 x 103) x (2 x 104)
You multiply the first numbers (1 x 2)
and add the exponents (3 4).
(1 x 2) x 10(34)
2 x 107
31Scientific Notation
- Dividing Exponents
- (1 x 103) (2 x 104) first, lets rewrite it
1 x 103
2 x 104
You divide the first numbers (1/2) and subtract
the exponents (3 - 4).
1 X 10 (3-4)
2 X 10 (3-4)
.5 x 10-1
5 x 10-2
32Significant Figures
- The precision of the instruments used determines
how exact your data is and determines the number
of significant figures in your calculations. - Significant figures include all known digits plus
one estimated digit.
33Significant Figures
- Rules for Significant Figures
- Non-Zero numbers are always significant.
72.3 g has 3 - Zeros between non-zero numbers are significant.
60.5 g has 3 - All final zeros to the right of the decimal place
6.20 g has 3are significant. - Zeros that are placeholders are NOT significant.
0.0253 has 3
4320
has 3
34Tables and Graphs
- Data is also presented in graphs.
Types of graphs Bar graphs Line graphs Circle
graphs
35Tables and Graphs
- Bar Graphs are often used to compare sets of data.
36Tables and Graphs
- Circle Graphs are often used to show how one part
compares to the whole.
37Tables and Graphs
- Line Graphs are often used to show how one
variable changes in response to another.
38Tables and Graphs
- The slope on line graphs can also give us
information.
The slope of a line is rise over run.
Slope 3 g/ml
The slope of this line tells us density!
39Tables and Graphs
- Graphs need to have the following labels
- Dependent Variable on Y-Axis
- Y-Axis Title
- Y-Axis Units
- Independent Variable on X-Axis
- X-Axis Title
- X-Axis Units
- Graph Title
- Reasonable graph
40Matter Properties and Changes
41Properties of Matter
- Substance (also known as a Pure Substance)
matter that has a uniform and unchanging
composition. - Water is a substance H2O each atom of water is
always made up of two Hydrogen atoms and one
Oxygen atom. - Seawater is NOT a substance samples taken at
different locations will have different
compositions.
42Properties of Matter
- Physical Property can be tested without
changing the composition of the substance. - Water can be frozen but it is still H2O.
- Ice can be melted but it is still H2O.
- Water can be boiled to form vapor but it is
still H2O.
43Properties of Matter
- Chemical Property the way a substance combines
with (reacts with) another substance to form a
new substance. - Sodium an unstable metallic element reacts with
Chlorine an unstable gaseous element to form
Sodium Chloride Table Salt.2 Na Cl2 ? 2 NaCl - Iron reacts with Oxygen to form rust.4 Fe 3 O2
? 2 Fe2O3

45Properties of Matter
46Properties of Matter
- States of Matter
- Solid
- Liquid
- Gas
47Properties of Matter
Solid
- Has a definite shape and volume
- Atoms are packed closely together and have an
orderly arrangement of atoms
48Properties of Matter
Solid
- Solids have a definite volume and shape because
the particles of a solid vibrate around fixed
locations.
49Properties of Matter
Solid
- Solids are only very slightly compressible.
50Properties of Matter
Liquid
- Has a definite volume, but not a definite shape
- Atoms are close together but the arrangement of
atoms is more random
51Properties of Matter
Liquid
- Takes on the shape of its container because
particles can flow to new locations - The volume is constant because forces of
attraction keep the particles close together.
52Properties of Matter
Liquid
- Liquids are slightly compressible.
53Properties of Matter
Gas
- Has no definite shape nor definite volume
- Atoms are loosely spaced and are not arranged in
a regular pattern
54Properties of Matter
Gas
- The constant motion of particles in a gas allows
a gas to fill a container of any shape or size.
55Properties of Matter
Gas
- Gases are highly compressible.

57Properties of Matter
Phase Changes
When enough kinetic energy is added to a solid,
it can become a liquid.
When enough kinetic energy is added to a liquid,
it can become a gas.
58Properties of Matter
Phase Changes
Melting, freezing, vaporization, condensation,
sublimation and deposition are six common phase
changes.
59Properties of Matter
Freezing
- Often, farmers spray water (that freezes) onto
tender blossoms and fruit to protect them from
freeze damage.
When water freezes, temperature decreases so
the water is giving up energy.
- So, freezing is an exothermic change (releases
heat)!

Solid / Solid Liquid
Melting Point
Note Temperature does not change during a phase
change.
61Properties of Matter
- Endothermic - describes a process or reaction
that absorbs energy in the form of heat
Sublimation, melting and vaporization are
endothermic processes (heat is absorbed). - Exothermic - describes a process or reaction that
releases heat Deposition, freezing and
condensation are exothermic processes (heat is
released).
62Properties of Matter
Chemical Changes
- Chemical Changes are usually referred to as a
chemical reaction.
- Law of Conservation of Mass states that mass is
neither created nor destroyed during a chemical
reaction. - So, the mass of the reactants must equal the mass
of the products.
63Properties of Matter
Mixtures
- A Mixture is a combination of two or more pure
substances where each substance keeps its
individual chemical properties. - Heterogeneous Mixture is not blended smoothly
individual substances remain distinct. Examples
Sand, Tossed Salad. - Homogeneous Mixture SOLUTION there is a
constant composition throughout. Examples Sugar
water, Air, Alloy (solution of metals).
64Properties of Matter
Mixtures Separation Techniques
- Remember A Mixture is a combination of two or
more pure substances where each substance keeps
its individual chemical properties. So, we should
be able to separate them!
65Properties of Matter
Mixtures Separation Techniques
- Methods for Separation
- Filtration
- Distillation
- Crystallization
- Chromatography
66Properties of Matter
Mixtures Separation Techniques
- Filtration a method to separate liquids from
solids.
67Properties of Matter
Mixtures Separation Techniques
- Crystallization a method to recover substances
in a solution.
68Properties of Matter
Mixtures Separation Techniques
- Distillation a method to separate mixtures
based on boiling points.
69Properties of Matter
Mixtures Separation Techniques
- Chromatography a method that separates a
mixture by its tendency to move across a surface
of another material.

80Elements and Compounds
- Element a pure substance that cannot be
separated into simpler sub stances by physical or
chemical means. - Compound a combination of two or more different
elements that are combined chemically. - The properties of a compound are different from
the properties of the elements it is made of.
81Elements and Compounds
- Compounds can be broken down into simpler
substances by chemical means.Example Water can
be broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen2 H2O ?
2 H2 O2
82Law of Definite Proportions
Elements and Compounds
- This law states that regardless of amount, a
compound is always composed of the same elements
in the same proportion by mass.
- When water is broken down, two parts of hydrogen
and one part of oxygen are always produced. Also,
the ratio of weight of Oxygen to Hydrogen is
always 8 1.
83Law of Multiple Proportions
Elements and Compounds
- This law states that the same elements can
combine in different ratios to form different
compounds.
- Shown here are two compounds containing Copper
and Chlorine. Compound 1 is CuCl. Compound 2 is
CuCl2.
