Chemistry = Memorization?FALSE!

Look at the following numbers. How easy would it be to memorize this list and regenerate it in a week or so on a quiz?

1, 3, 5, 11, 21, 43, 85, 171, 341, 683, 1365, 2731, 5461, 10923, 21845 Pretty hard? Pretty Easy?

Why?

Easy huh? OK, what’s the next number in

the sequence? How about the next 5 numbers?

Page 3: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

1, 3, 5, 11, 21, 43, 85, 171, 341, 683, 1365, 2731, 5461,

10923, 21845http://www.antiqueradiomuseum.org/RR%20Rule%20Book%20for%20CMSP&P%20RR.jpg

The numbers don’t seem to follow any kind of pattern.

But, what if you knew a rule? It wouldn’t just be memorization then.

OK, good point! The rule is: Start with 1. Double and add 1. Double and subtract 1. And so on.

You just wish it was that EASY!

Doesn’t “knowing the rule” make the list easier to memorize?

You don’t have to memorize a bunch of unrelated numbers.

IF YOU KNOW the rule, you can generate the number list on the test easily. Anytime! Anywhere!

Don’t

The Gettysburg Addresshttp://www.old-picture.com/defining-moments/pictures/Abraham-Lincoln-Antietam-Battlefield.jpg

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettysburg_Address

“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”

Being able to look at something new, and make sense of it is an important skill for the rest of this course.

You have to be able to DO chemistry in your mind.

Yes, Ms Rackley, I know this was Antietam, but it’s a nice picture.

Unfortunately (for you) I’m not Bill Nye

http://www.tvgasm.com/newsgasm/Bill-nye.jpg

In Chemistry, when we have numbers, most of the time we do one of three things: Multiple 2 x 3 Divide 2 / 3 Divide 3 / 2

If you can figure out which operation to do when, you can actually solve the problem.

That’s our goal.

What would Bill Nye do?

Page 8: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Units TELL you the right ANSWER

If your units don’t work out right, your answer is wrong.

Don’t just ignore wrong units. It is a big clue for you.

LISTEN to the units!

Page 9: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Graphing Variables

Slope = rise/run

Slope = mass/volume

Slope = density

We don’t graph just to graph; the graph and the data tells us something meaningful. Like density!

Page 10: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Line of Best FitReal data never(almost never) falls exactly on the line!

The line is an “average”

Once you know the line of best fit, you can use it to predict other values.

The line represents the data.

Page 11: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

We never “connect the

dots” in a graph.Don’t connect the dots. The line of best fit doesn’t have to go through ANY of the data points.

However, some points might be exactly on the line.

Ideally the points above the line = the points below the line

Page 12: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

y = mx + b To graph without your calculator,

you need 2 points to define a line. Use the y-intercept for the first

point (x = 0 so y = b) Set y = 0 to find the second point

(x = − b/m when y = 0). Use a RULER to draw your lines!

Page 13: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Accuracy & Precision

Accuracy is how close you are to the true value. Think of a “bullseye” in darts.

Precision is how close all your measurements are to each other.

Can you be accurate but not precise? Can you be precise but not accurate?

Page 14: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Density Anyone remember the formula for density?

Anyone remember the “density heart?”

Page 15: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

D = m / VOMG, we just zoomed into Chapter 3

We don’t use x to solve Chem problems.

We use real variables that mean something D = density m = mass (units of grams) V = volume (units of mL or L or cm3)

Page 16: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

D = m / V

OMG, we just zoomed into Chapter 3

Density equals mass divided by volume. That’s what the formula is telling you. (Most of you probably already knew that).

Density has units of “g/mL” or “g/cm3”

But what does density really mean? Density tells you how much 1 milliliter (volume) is going to weigh.

One mL of water weighs 1 g. One mL of gold weighs 19.3 g.

Write this down and learn it!

Page 17: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

D = m / V

If you know 2 of those 3 variables, you can solve for (calculate) the remaining one. This is basic, basic algebra 1.

Rearrange the formula so that mass is by itself.

Rearrange the formula so that volume is by itself.

Rearrange the formula so that volume is by itself.

Write these into your notes. You don’t need to memorize all 3. Memorize the top one and rearrange when you need one of the others!

m = V x D

V = m / D

K = °C + 273

This formula converts Celcius temperature into Kelvin temperature.

This will be on the SOL.

For some problems in Chemistry, we need to use Kelvin temperature.

We don’t use Fahrenheit temp. If this is first semester, it’s probably about 80°F outside (maybe 30°F it is second semester). But you do need to know how to convert from Celcius to Kelvin (and vice versa).

What is the formula if you want °C by itself?

Answer: °C = K − 273

Temperature Conversions K = °C + 273 (note K does not have a °

symbol) °C = K − 273 °C = (°F − 32) ÷ 1.8 (won’t be on test) ΔT = T2 − T1 or ΔT = Tfinal − Tinitial

Directly Proportional

Directly proportional means that as one goes up, the other goes up too.

For matter, kinetic energy (KE) is directly proportional to Kelvin temperature (K)

If you graph these variables, you will get a straight line with a POSITIVE slope.

Page 24: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Inversely Proportional

Inversely proportional means that as one goes up, the other goes down (and vice versa).

For any gas, pressure (P) is inversely proportional to volume (V)

If you graph these variables, you will get a straight line with a NEGATIVE slope (sometimes a curve with a negative slope).

Let’s Do Some Math!: First,

plan! Convert 45 cm to mm?

To do this you need to know the conversion factors 100 cm = 1 m 1,000 mm = 1 m.

First step: convert cm to meters.

Second step: convert meters to mm.

To find the answer: cancel out units until you have the units you are looking for.

Page 32: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Let’s Do Some Math! Then, use

the calculator. Convert 45 cm to mm? 45 cm × 1 m × 1,000 mm = ? 100 cm 1 m 45 cm × 1 m × 1,000 mm = 450 mm 100 cm 1 m

The framework works!

Significant Figuresaka Sig figs

If you didn’t know the exact amount of coffee, is adding one more drop significant?

In other words, by adding one more drop, do you now know that it’s exactly 200.05mL?

Page 45: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Sig Fig Rules 1. All digits except for zero are ALWAYS significant.

How many sig figs does 12.34 have? How many sig figs does 45.6 have?

2. Zero is SOMETIMES significant. 0’s between other numbers are significant.

100.3 has 4 sig figs. 10101010101 is totally significant. Every one of the digits is

significant. Make sense? 0’s at the end of a number are significant IF they are also to the

right of the decimal point. BOTH things must be true. End of the number. AND, to the right of

the decimal point.

Zeros are the beginning of a number are never significant

Page 46: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Sig Fig Rules

Therefore. 14.50 has 4 sig figs (end of the

number AND right of the decimal point).

1,450 has 3 sig figs (zero is at end of the number BUT to the LEFT of the decimal point).

0.02345 has 4 sig figs (zeros are at the beginning of the number).

Page 47: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Sig Figs How many sig figs do each of the following have

1234.0 0.000000000000000000001 0.000100 50 50.0 60 min = 1 hour

How many sig figs does 60 have? How many sig figs does 1 have?

Page 48: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Rules for Sig Figs if you take the

measurement yourself. All of the digits you can read directly off the measuring

instrument are significant.

The first digit you can ESTIMATE is also significant.

Suppose you have water in a graduated cylinder. The meniscus is EXACTLY on 20 mL. The next mark up is 20.1 mL. What should you record the volume as?

Suppose the meniscus was between 20 and 20.1 mL. What then?

Page 49: Chemistry is where you learn 2 + 2 = 10 or something. —Dennis Rodman Chemistry Math With Chemistry-specific graphs

Rules for Sig Figs when doing math

problems. When adding/subtracting, use the number of decimal places to

decide. 2.22 + 3.333 = 5.553.

2.22 has 2 decimal places. 3.333 has 3 decimal places. Your answer can only have 2 (because 2 is less than 3).

Your answer is 5.55.

When multiplying/dividing, use the least number of sig figs for the numbers you are working with. 2.00 x 6 = 12.00

2.00 has 3 sig figs. 6 has only 1 sig fig. Your answer can only have 1 (because 1 is less than 3).

What is your answer? The answer CANNOT be 12, since that has 2 sig figs!!
