Test (Chapters up till 7) Flashcards
introduction chapter
Who was george stahl? What theory did he propose? How does it work
George Stahl proposed phlogiston theory. Phlogiston flowed out of burning material. Burning stop when air became saturated w/ phlogiston.
what did Joseph priestly discover? What did he name it?
Oxygen. Named it dephlogisticated air.
Who was Antoine Lavoisier?
Father of modern chemistry. Disproved phlogiston theory. Explained combustion and stated it supports life. Published first modern book: elementary treatise on chemistry.
What law did Joseph Proust create? What is it?
Law of constant composition (or definite proportion). a given compound always has exactly the same proportion of elements by mass.
What law did John dalton propose? What was it
Law of multiple proportion. If elements combine in different ratios, they are always whole numbers.
Name all 4 parts of daltons atomic theory?
- each element is made of atoms
- atoms of given elements are identical
- chemical compounds are formed when elements combine. A combine always has the same relative # of atoms
- Chemical Reactions are reorganizations of atoms
What else did John dalton do?
Constructed a table of masses. Many were wrong but it was an important step in creating the periodic table
Joseph Gay Lussac and Amadeo Avogadro- What did they do?
determined formulas for compounds, gay-lussac measured volume of gases that reacted with each other at constant temp and pressure. Avogadro’s hypothesis interpreted lussacs experiments and proposed that a tthe same temp and pressure, equal volumes of different gasses contain the same number of particles.
What are all of the diatomic molecules?
H2, N2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2
What did Berzelius do?
discovered 4 elements, created a symbol system for elements, determined atomic mass of 50 known elements, and performed over 2000 experiments in 10 years.
Who was JJ Thomson?
discovered electrons
what is electrons charge to mass ratio?
e/m= 1.76*10^8 (C/g) *coulombs per gram
Plum Pudding Model?
since atoms are electrically neutral, atoms must be positive. The diagram was a positive cloud with electrons scattered inside of them.
Gold foil experiment?
determined positive charge was central
Oil drop experiment
Robert Millikan performed it to measure charge of an electron. Used charge to mass ratio.
Mass of an electron?
9.10*10^-28 (g)
Who was Henri Becquerel? What did he do? Who was Marie Curie? What did she do?
Henri saw a rock leaving an image on a photographic plate in absence of light. Marie curie coined it radioactivity. She later identified other radioactive elements. Won nobel prize for chem.
What is radiation? What are the 3 types?
It is spontaneous emission of radiation. Gamma rays are high speed energy (light/photon), Beta particles are high speed electrons, and aplha particles are helium ions (w/ no e-).
What are isotopes?
Atoms w/ different numbers of neutrons. Identical chemical properties. In nature, most elements are mixtures of isotopes.
What is counting by weighing?
Weigh a small sample, calculate the mass per unit, then weigh a larger sample and find the number of units.
how many g in one amu?
1.66*10^-24 (g)
What does a mass spectrometer do?
most accurate machine for atomic weighing.
Know how to calculate avg atomic mass
Avogadros number?
6.022*10^23
Know stoichiometry
Know % mass composition
Know how to find molecular formula from empirical formula
Know how to detrmine an empirical formula from a given mass
obtain masses. Calculate mass by % of each element. Assume 100g of compound. Calculate moles of each element. Calculate rations.
What is the Bohr Model?
Proposed electrons move in orbits rather than rings
Energy Equation from Bohr’s Model?
E= -2,178*10^-18 [Z^2/N^2] where e is energy, z is nuclear charge (# of protons), and n is integer (energy level)
