Pure substance
- Element
* Compound
Element
simplest form of substance
Compound
2 or more chemical united (separated via
chemical means)
Mixture
- Homogeneous
* Heterogeneous
Mixture
2 or more substance wherein individual substance identifies are retained (separated via physical means. Alcohol +
Water via distillation)
Homogeneous
1 phase; solution *clear colored
Heterogeneous
2 phases; suspension, colloid *ex. milk
Extrinsic Property “Dependent”
Length, mass/weight, volume, pressure, entropy, enthalpy, electrical resistance
Intrinsic Property “Independent”
Density/ SpGr (water = 1g/ml or cc), viscosity (resistance to flow), velocity (m/sec), temperature, color
Law of Conservation of Mass/ Matter
- Antoine Lavoiser
- Mass/ Matter is always constant (neither created nor destroyed)
Law of Definite/Constant Proportions
- Joseph Proust (Proust’s law)
• Chemical compounds always contain the exact proportion of element in fixed ratio (by mass)
• Ex. H2O →2H + O, C6H12O6 = CH2O
Law of Multiple Proportion
- John Dalton • When 2 elements form more than 1 compounds, it can be expressed in a fixed whole number (by mass) • Ex. CO → 28g/mole, CO2 → 44g/mole C = 12g/mole O = 16g/mole
Law of combining weights
• Proportions by weight when chemical reaction takes place can be expressed in small integral unit
• Ex. MgO → 40g/mole (100%)
Mg = 24g/mole (60%); O = 16g/mole (40%)
Democritus
- atomos
- “indivisible”
John Dalton
- Billiard ball
- Matter is made up of atoms
Postulates
- Elements are composed of indivisible, indestructible atoms
- Atoms alike for a given element (isotopes)
- Atoms of different elements differ in size, mass & other properties (isobars)
- Compound are formed form 2 or more atoms at different elements
- Atoms combined in simple numerical ratios to form compounds
J.J. Thompson
- Plum Pudding/Raisin bread
- e- in (+) framework
Ernest Rutherford
- discoverer of proton (Nuclear - Gold foil/a-scattering experiment)
- atom is mostly empty; (+) particles in nucleus
Neil Bohr
- Planetary
- mostly used
Erwin Schrodinger
- Quantum/Mechanical/e- cloud
- Modern atomic Model; estimates the probability of finding an e- in certain position (i.e. at e-cloud/ orbital)
Proton
- (+) ion
• Atomic number (basis of electronic configuration)
