Lecture Notes Flashcards
Types of Chemistry
organic- carbon biochemistry- carbon life physical- physical inorganic- everything else analytical- what and how much
goal of chemistry
understand the atoms and molecules that compose them
observe
measure, interpret, calculate publish
exact
not used in sig figs
inexact
used in sig figs
accurate
how close a measurement to the true value
precison
how close a set of measurements are to each other
add/sbutract
least amount of decimal places
matter
anything that occupies space and has mass
what isnt matter
heat, electricity, and light
types of matter
state- physical form,
composition- basic components that make it up
states of solids
crystalline
amorphous
ionic compound-
metal-nonmetal
covalent compound
nonmetal-nonmetal
diatomic molecules
H2, O2, N2, I2, Cl2, Br2, F2
Universe
helium, hydrogen,
earth’s crust
oxygen, silicon, aluminum, hydrogen, calcium, magnesium
body

matter
pure substance or mixture
element or compound and heterogenous or homogenous
compounds ionic or molecular
most oxygen
ate
one less oxygen
ite
acid
ate to ic
ite to ous
classification by atom rearrangement
A+B=C- combination
C= A+B- decmposition
X+YZ=Y+XZ- single replacement
AX+BY=AY+BX- double replacement
acid/base
salt and H2O
combustion
reacts with O2= CO2+H2O
strong acids
HCl HNO3 H2SO4 HBr HI
what are bases
bitter, feel slippery
strong bases
group 1 and 2
and hydroxide
