Gen Chemistry Flashcards
Branch of science that is concerned in the study of matter and changes it undergoes
Chemistry
Study of organic compounds (contains carbon)
Organic chemistry
Study of elements and compounds that is considered to be inorganic
Inorganic Chemistry
Study of chemistry of life
Biochemistry
Area of chemistry that is used in characterization of matter both quantitatively and qualitatively
Analytical chemistry
Study of macroscopic, and particulate phenomena in chemical systems in terms of the principles, practices, and concepts of physics such as motion, energy, force, time, thermodynamics, quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, analytical dynamics and chemical equilibrium
physical chemistry
Study of energy, conversion of energy that in various forms and ability of energy to do work from the word ‘therme’ which means heat and ‘dynamis’ which means power or energy
Thermodynamics
Total amount of energy in an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time energy is neither created nor destroyed, it can only be transformed or changed from one form to another
Law of Conservation of Energy (1st Law)
Energy inside the system
Internal energy
Thermodynamic property that is the measure of a system’s thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work.
Degree of disorderliness
Entropy
Law of disorderliness / Spontaneous Law. In relation of heat energy and entropy, it is impossible to obtain the process where the unique effect is the subtraction of positive heat from reservoir and the production of positive work states that the spontaneous natural processes increase entropy overall heat can spontaneously conducted or radiated only from higher temperature region to lower temperature region but not the other way around for natural spontaneous process the entropy increases, this can lead now to higher disorderliness for natural process
Law of Entropy
Entropy of perfect crystal is absolute zero is exactly equal to zero
solid entropy crystalline
All processes, temperature approaches absolute zero 2 bodies are in equilibrium with the 3rd body separately then it follows the 1st and 2nd body are also in thermal equilibrium.
Zeroth Law
Anything that occupies space and has mass (solid, liquid, gas). It has structure. It involves change. It requires energy for those changes and interaction
Matter
Matter possessing a definite and unvarying composition
Pure substance
Simplest form of substance that cannot be decomposed of a simple chemical reaction. 1 atom (+ or -)
Element
Substances composed of 2 or more elements united chemically in definite proportions
Compound
2 or more substances that retain its own characteristics
Mixture
Uniform throughout the mixture. No dissolved part particles
homogenous mixture
Composition is not uniform throughout the mixture, insoluble substance, 2 or more phases
heterogeneous mixture
Consist of positively charged core (atomic nucleus) which contains protons and neutrons
Atoms
Basic unit that made up all matter and basic unit of an element that can enter a chemical reaction.
Atoms
- (Gold foil experiment)
- Proton (+)
Ernest Rutherford
Electron (-)
JJ thompson
3 LAW PRINCIPLES
- Definite proportions
- Multiple proportions
- Combining weights
aka Proust’s Law (Joseph-Louis Proust)
LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTIONS
states that a chemical compound always contain exactly the same proportion of elements by mass
LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTIONS
copper carbonate either made from the laboratory or obtained from natural resources are always compose of mass of 1.3 parts of copper ,1 part of carbon and 4 parts of oxygen
LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTIONS
states that when 2 elements formed more than 1 compound between them then the ratios of the masses of 2nd element which combine with a fix mass of an element will be ratios of small whole number
LAW OF MULTIPLE PROPORTION
states that proportion by weight by chemical reactions take place can be express in terms of small integral multiple of fixed number could as combining weights of equivalent weight
LAW OF COMBINING WEIGHTS
“law of reciprocal proportions or law of equivalence”
Law of Combining weights
fundamental unit of structure of matter that can enter into a chemical reaction.
Atom
Diff elements, same atomic mass
Isobars
Atoms of different elements having the same number of neutrons
Isotone
Diff, structure, same molecule
Isomers
coined ‘’atomos’’ (tiny indivisible particles)
Democritus
considered to be 90% right
Democritus
atoms enter into a combination with other atoms to form compounds but it will remain unchanged during ordinary chemical reaction
John Dalton
atoms can combine in a simple numerical ratio
John Dalton
‘’Billiard ball model’’
John Dalton
atom is a hard indestructible sphere - Supports the law of definite proportion and law of multiple proportion
John Dalton
Thompson Model & Raisin bread model
JJ Thompson
Atom is a spherical mass containing electrons and that this spherical mass is positive but is made neutral by the electron embedded in it
JJ THOMPSON
Plum pudding (hollow but filled in structure)
Jj Thomspon
Negatively charged particles are embedded in the positively charged particles
Electrons are randomly spread throughout the clouds of massless positively charged material
Jj thompson
Gold film experiment
RUTHERFORD MODEL
Based on additional experimental evidence of ‘’alpha scattering experiments’’
RUTHERFORD MODEL
2 experiment in RUTHERFORD MODEL
- Geiger Marsden experiment
- Gold film foil experiment
To prove that atoms are in a really small space called atomic nucleus
Geiger Marsden experiment
Atom is mostly empty space and most of its mass and positively charged particles are concentrated in nucleus
Gold film foil experiment
Planetary Model
BOHR MODEL OF AN ATOM
Proton are in the nucleus and the electrons are in the orbital motion around the nucleus
BOHR MODEL OF AN ATOM
Electrons orbits the nucleus in a fix circular orbits
BOHR MODEL OF AN ATOM
Atoms are in elliptical orbits of increasing number
NEIL-BOHR MODEL
This principle states that simultaneous determination of the exact position and exact momentum of electron is impossible
HEISENBURG UNCERTAINTY PRINCIPLE
Aka Electron Cloud Model
WAVE MECHANICAL ATOM
The nucleus is a single cluster of particles at the center of the atom while the electrons are everywhere in rotating motion
WAVE MECHANICAL ATOM
What is the Model of Wave Mechanical atom?
Pauli’s Exclusion Model
- Formulated by Wolfgand Pauli (1925)
- No 2 electrons in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers
Pauli’s Exclusion Model
This theory makes the assertion that electromagnetic radiation like X-rays, gamma rays, radio waves and light rays are made up of energy
SCHROEDINGER ‘’QUANTUM MODEL’’
Does not define the exact path of an electron but rather predicts the odds of the location of the electron
SCHROEDINGER ‘’QUANTUM MODEL’’
Nucleus surrounded by an electron cloud. Where the clouds are most dense, therefore the probability of finding the electron is quick and conversely the electron is like to be in less dense area of the cloud
SCHROEDINGER ‘’QUANTUM MODEL’’
This model introduces the concept of the subenergy levels
