TermDefinition
matter Anything that has mass and takes up volume
composition simple components that make up a material (
structure both composition and arrangement of simpler matter
atom the fundamental unit of all matter
element simplest form of matter and is only made up of one atom.
compound composed of one or more elements in a fixed ratio and is in a fixed ratio as in you cant change it.
molecule groups of atoms bound tightly together that behave as a single unit.
pure substance materials only composed of one element or one compound
mixture contains more than one substance and not in a bound ratio
homogeneous mixture components evenly blended
heterogenous mixture contain regions of significantly different concentrations
can mixtures be separated into individual components without changing the identity of substances? yes
can compounds be separated into individual components without changing the identity of substances? no bc it will change what it is originally
definite shape and volume solid
no definite shape but definite volume water
no definite shape and volume gas
particle arrangement the behavior of any substance is determined by the arrangement of the particles that compose the substance.
composes of mass, volume, temperature, color, hardness physical properties
physical property can be measured without changing the identity of the substance
chemical property cannot be measured without changing the identity of substance/a change that forms new compounds
toxicity, acidity/basicity, reactivity, oxidation state chemical properties
energy the ability to do work
potential energy energy that is stored
kinetic energy the energy of motion
heat energy involves the kinetic energy of the particles in a substance
exothermic releases hit energy
hypothesis a tentative explanation that has not been tested
theory an idea supported by experimental evidence, or a paradigm, or way of thinking about a topic
scientific law a statement that describes observations that are true in widely varying circumstances
units of measurements quantities with accepted values that can be communicated between people
10^12 1,000,000,000,000 tera (T)
10^9 1,000,000,000 giga (G)
10^6 1,000,000 mega (M)
10^3 1,000 kilo (k)

10^-2 1/100 centi (c)
10^-3 1/1,000 milli (m)
10^-6 1/1,000,000 micro (μ)
10^-9 1/1,000,000,000 nano (n)
10^-12 1/1,000,000,000,000 pico (p)
accuracy how reliable are the measurements are
precise how closely grouped together they are
significant digits indicate how precisely we know a measurement and they show the precision of a measured quantity
1. all nonzero digits are significant, and all zeros between nonzero digits are significant 2. if a decimal point is present, zeros to the right of the last nonzero digit are significant 3. zeros to the left of significant digits
exact numbers values for which there is no uncertainty
circumference of a ball c=πd
volume formula mass x length x height
d = m/v density formula
v = m/d if density is given but not volume
m = v x d if density is given but not mass
water's density 1.00
F = 9/5°C + 32 farenheit conversion
C = 5/9(°F −32) celsius conversion
K = °C + 273.15 kelvin conversion
law of conversation of mass in chemical reactions, matter is neither created or destroyed (Antoine Lavoisier)
atomic theory •Elements are made of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms • The atoms of each element are unique. • Atoms can join together in whole-number ratios to form compounds. • Atoms are unchanged in chemical reactions.
periodic table of elements Arranged by atomic mass and properties (Mendeleev)
groups columns in the periodic table (have similar properties)
periods rows in the periodic table
metals to the left of the periodic table
non-metals to the right of the periodic table (the building blocks of life)
metalloids located in between metals and nonmetals (semiconductors)
alkali metals soft metals that react violently with water group 1
alkaline earth metals less reactive than group 1 (burns brightly) group 2
halogens diatomic molecules in an element form many different compounds group 7
noble gases generally do not form compounds and are gases at room temperature group 8
subatomic particles particles that make up atoms
1 u = 1.66 × 10^−27 kg atomic mass unit
opposite attracts and like charges repel charges
electrical energy a form of energy that involves the motion of charged particles.
electron a tiny, negatively-charged particle mass of each particle is 1/2000 the mass of a hydrogen atom.
ernest rutherford and his model Positive charge is localized over a very tiny volume of the atom, which also contains most of the atom's mass
plum pudding model envisioned negative electrons spread throughout a positively-charged material.
alessandro volta invents electrochemical cell (battery) Flow of charged particles generates electrical current
atomic number number of protons and also the number of electrons in a neutral atom
atomic identity the number of protons determines the identity of the atom
mass number p+n
isotopes have the same atomic number, but different mass number
average atomic mass a weighted average of the different isotopes of an element.
average value average value = (value A × fraction A) + (value B × fraction B)
bohr model electrons orbit the nucleus. • Only certain orbit energies are “allowed”. • Electrons can jump between levels. • Light is absorbed or released when electrons jump.
quantam model electrons behave as particles and waves
ions an atom or group of atoms with an overall charge
light electromagnetic radiation • a form of energy • travels in waves • exists in increments called photons
electromagnetic spectrum tv/radio - lowest frequency and wave (0) microwave infrared (600) visible UV (500) x rays (400) gamma rays
wavelength the length of one wave
frequency the number of waves per second
speed of light formula c = wavelength x frequency
3.00 × 10^8 m/s speed of light
red wave length longer wavelength lower frequency lower energy
blue wavelength shorter wavelength higher frequency higher energy
E = hv (v is frequency and h is plancks constant) or E=hc/wavelength energy of photon
line spectra model white light is composed of all colors of light Light from a heated hydrogen gas only produces only specific colors
line spectra each element produces a unique line spectrum. this is the fingerprint of each element.
photoelectric effect light causes atoms to eject electrons and that there is a dense nucleus
heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle It is impossible to precisely know the exact velocity and location of a particle.
capacity of 2 electrons energy level 1
capacity of 8 electrons energy level 2 how many electrons?
capacity of 18 electrons (levels) energy level 3 how many electrons can it hold?
energy level 4 capacity of 32

14 how many electrons in sublevel f
hund's rule if empty orbitals of the same energy are available, electrons singly occupy orbitals rather than pairing together.
isoelectronic have the same electron configuration
valence electrons electrons in the highest occupied energy level (s and p levels)
other electrons electrons beyond the largest FILLED noble gas
inner electrons non bonding electrons
octet rule an atom is stabilized by having its highest-occupied (valence) energy level filled.
