Introduction to Chemistry

Compiled from Various Sources:

Wikipedia, Regents Reference

Table, Text Books.

God created our natural world and

filled it with various different materials –

common and exotic.

God created mankind with intelligence

and curiosity about the world around

them.

Introduction

What are the natural things made of?

Why some things like metals conduct

electricity – whereas other materials

are non-conductors?

What makes them different?

Introduction

What makes metals like gold and

platinum stable for indefinite period of

time – whereas materials made of iron

rust?

This field of curiosity is about four

thousand years old.

Introduction

Chemistry Involves Studying the

Properties and Behavior of Matter.

Matter is the Physical Material of the

Universe; it is Anything that has Mass

and Occupies Space.

Matter and Chemistry

A Property is any Characteristic that

Allows us to Recognize a Particular

Type of Matter and to Distinguish it

from Other Types.

Matter and Chemistry

Chemistry Provides Important

Understanding of Our World and How it

Works.

It is an Extremely Practical Science that

Greatly Impacts our Daily Living.

Chemistry

Matters are made up of Basic

Building Blocks Called Elements.

An Element is a Pure Substance that

cannot be Separated into Simpler

Substances by Physical or Chemical

Means.

Matters

Matters are made up of Basic

Building Blocks Called Elements.

91 Such Elements Occur Naturally on

Earth.

Copper, Oxygen, and Gold – Examples.

Each Element has a Unique Chemical

Name and Symbol.

Matters

Three Main Classifications:

1. Metals: Generally Shiny when

Smooth and Clean, Solid at RT, and

Good Conductors of Heat and

Electricity.

Elements

2. Nonmetals: Generally Gases or

Brittle – Dull-looking Solids. Poor

Conductors of Heat and Electricity.

The only Nonmetal that is Liquid at

RT is Bromine.

Elements

3. Metalloids: Physical and Chemical

Properties of Both Metals and

Nonmetals.

B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Te, Po, and At are Eight

Metalloids.

Elements

Elements are made up of

1. A heavy small nucleus –

containing protons and

neutrons;

2. Light electrons spinning

around the nucleus.

Elements

Protons are Positively

Charged.

Electrons are Negatively

Charged.

Elements

Are Arranged in the Periodic table

in the Ascending Order of the

Number of Protons.

An Element is Characterized by its

Number of Protons – Atomic

Number.

Elements

Except Some Metals and the Group

18 Elements (Inert Gases) – the

Elements themselves are too

Unstable to be Found Alone in

Nature.

Molecules or Compounds

They Combine with the Same or

Different Element(s) to Make More

Stable Molecules or Compounds.

Molecules or Compounds

A Compound is a Combination of

Two or More Different Elements

that are Combined Chemically.

Compounds

Are Formed When Metals Combine

with Nonmetals.

LiF Li + F -

LiCl Li + Cl -

KF K + F -

Ionic Compounds

LiF Li + F -

Li + has 3 Protons and 2 Electrons,

F – has 9 Protons and 10 Electrons.

Cl – has 17 Protons and 18 Electrons.

K + has 19 Protons and 18 Electrons.

Ionic Compounds

Are Formed When Nonmetals

Combine with Nonmetals.

Molecular Compounds or Molecules.

H2O, NH3, CH4

Covalent Compounds

The Smallest Particle of an Element

that Retains the Properties of the

Element is Called an Atom.

Atoms

The smallest atom is helium with a radius of 32 pm,

while one of the largest is cesium at 225 pm.

A picometer (symbol pm) is a unit of length in the

metric system, equal to one trillionth, i.e.

(1/1,000,000,000,000) of a meter. It can be written in

scientific notation as 1×10−12 m (scientific notation) or

1 E−12 m (engineering notation) — both meaning 1

m / 1,000,000,000,000.

width of a strand of human hair is 10-4 meters or 100

µm.

Atoms

Some examples will demonstrate the minuteness of the atom.

width of a strand of human hair is 10-4 meters or 100 µm

A typical human hair is about 1 million carbon atoms in width.

A single drop of water contains about 2 sextillion (2 × 1021) atoms

of oxygen, and twice the number of hydrogen atoms.

A single carat diamond with a mass of 2 × 10-4 kg contains about

10 sextillion (1022) atoms of carbon.

If an apple were magnified to the size of the Earth, then the

atoms in the apple would be approximately the size of the original

apple.

Atoms

A Molecule is Formed when Two or

More Atoms Bond Covalently.

Molecules

H2, O2, N2, F2, Cl2, Br2,and I2 – These

are not Compounds – Composed of a

Single Element.

H2O, CO2, CH4 – are Compounds –

Each is Made from More than One

Element.

Molecules/Compounds

All Atoms are Neutral – Number of

Protons and the Number of electrons in

an Atom must be Equal.

Atomic Number = Number of Protons

= Number of

Electrons

Number of Electrons

All atoms of a Particular Element have

the Same Number of Protons and

Electrons – the Number of Neutrons on

their Nuclei May Differ.

Three Types of Carbon Atoms: 6

Neutrons, 7 Neutrons, and 8 Neutrons.

Isotopes

Atoms - with the same number of

Protons and Electrons but Different

Number of Neutrons – are Called

Isotopes.

Isotopes have different masses, but

essentially the same Chemical

Behavior – determined by the number

of Electrons.

Isotopes

To Make it Easy to Identify each of the

Various Isotopes of an Element,

Chemists Add a Number after the

Elements Name (C-14).

This Number is Called the Mass

Number – Represents the Sum of the

Number of Protons and Neutrons.

Isotopes

107Ag 109 Ag

47 47

Number of Neutrons = Mass

Number – Atomic Number

Isotopes

The Arrangement of electrons in an Atom is

called the Atom’s Electron Configuration.

(Ions Electron Configuration)

The Most Stable, Lowest-Energy

Arrangement of the Electrons in an Atom is

Called its Ground-State Electron

Configuration.

Electron Configuration

The Periodic Table found in your Reference

Table Gives you these Ground-State

Electron Configuration for each Element

underneath the Symbol of the Element.

Electron Configuration

Only Certain Electrons – Valence

Electrons – Determine the Chemical

Properties of an element.

Valence Electrons

Electrons in the Outermost Orbitals

(the Last Number on your Ref. Tab.

Periodic table underneath the symbol

of the Element).

C 2-4 4 is the # of V. Electrons.

Valence Electrons

Because the Valence Electrons are

Involved in Forming Chemical Bonds

– Chemists often Represent them

Visually using a Simple Shorthand

Method.

Electron-Dot Structure

Consists of the Element Symbol –

which Represents the Atomic Nucleus

and Inner Electrons – Surrounded by

Dots Representing the Atom’s

Valence Electrons.

Electron-Dot Structure

An American Chemist G.N. Lewis

(1875-1946) Devised this method

while teaching a College Chemistry

Class in 1902 – Lewis Dot structures.

Electron-Dot Structure

Dots – Representing Valence

Electrons – are Placed one at a time

on the four sides of the symbol (any

sequence is ok) and then paired up

until all are used.

Electron-Dot Structure

The Atoms tend to Gain, Lose, or

Share Electrons in order to acquire a

full set of eight valence electrons.

Exceptions: H, He, Li, Be, B

Octet Rule

The Force that Holds Two Atoms

Together is Called A Chemical Bond.

Attraction between a Positive Nucleus and

Negative Electrons.

Attraction between a Positive Ion and a

Negative Ion.

Chemical Bonds

When the Elements Sodium and

Chlorine Reacts – a Sodium atom

transfers its valence electron to a

Chlorine atom – becomes a Positive

Ion. The Chlorine atom accepts this

electron - becomes a Negative Ion.

Ionic Bonds

Metals usually Lose electrons to form

Positive Ions – Cations.

Nonmetals usually Gain electrons to

form Negative Ions – Anions.

Ions

The main principle to remember is that

ions are completely different in

physical and chemical properties from

the neutral atoms of the element .

Ions

Whereas elements are neutral in charge,

IONS have either a positive or negative

charge depending upon whether there is

an excess of protons (positive ion) or

excess of electrons (negative ion).

Ions

The Compound Sodium Chloride

forms because of the Attraction

between Oppositely charged Na+ and

Cl- Ions.

Ionic Bonds

The Electrostatic Force that Holds

Oppositely Charged Particles Together

in an Ionic Compound is Referred to as

Ionic Bond.

Compounds that Contain Ionic Bonds are

Ionic Compounds.

Ionic Bonds

Ionic Compounds Contain Both

Cations and Anions.

The Simplest Ratio of the Ions

Represented in an Ionic Compound is

Called a Formula Unit.

Formulas – Ionic Compounds

Because the Total Number of Electrons

Gained by the Nonmetallic Atoms must

Equal the Total Number of Electrons

Lost by the Metallic Atoms – the

Overall Charge of the Formula Unit is

Zero.

Naming – Ionic Compounds

All Ionic compounds tend to have the

following characteristics:

1. Usually solid at room temperature

forming a crystal lattice structure.

Properties Of Ionic Compounds

2. Most ionic compounds are brittle and

break under stress.

3. Usually soluble in water, the polar

water molecule pulls the cations and

anions apart to cause dissociation.

Properties Of Ionic Compounds

4. Ionic compounds conduct electricity

when dissociated or molten.

5. Usually have very high melting points

(unlike covalent compounds).

Sodium chloride, NaCl, melts at 8010C

Properties Of Ionic Compounds

Many of the Ionic Compounds are Soluble

in Water.

Solubility – Temp Relationships of a few

Solid Ionic Compounds are Shown in

Table G in the Reference Table.

Review: Octet Rule

When Metals and Nonmetals react to

form binary Ionic Compounds –

Electrons are Transferred – Resulting

Ions have Noble-Gas (Inert Gas)

Electron Configurations.

But Sometimes Two Atoms that both

Need to Gain Valence Electrons to

become Stable – Can Share Electrons.

Naming Binary Covalent

Compounds

Two nonmetals

Name each element

End the last element in -ide

Add prefixes to show more than 1 atom

Prefixes

mono 1 penta 5

di 2 hexa 6

tri 3

tetra 4

Rules

1. The first element is named first, using

the elements name.

2. Second element is named as an Anion

(suffix "-ide")

3. Prefixes are used to denote the number

of atoms

4. "Mono" is not used to name the first

element

Note: when the addition of the Greek prefix

places two vowels adjacent to one another, the

"a" (or the "o") at the end of the Greek prefix is

usually dropped; e.g., "nonaoxide" would be

written as "nonoxide", and "monooxide" would

be written as "monoxide". The "i" at the end of

the prefixes "di-" and "tri-" are never dropped.

Electronegativity

The attraction of an atom for electrons is

called its electronegativity.

Fluorine has the greatest

electronegativity.

The metals have low electronegativities.

Relative Scale (Reference Table: Pages

10-11) – no values are given for the inert gases

(Group 18 elements) because they do not bond

readily to other atoms.

105

Electronegativity:

• The ability of atoms in

a molecule to attract

electrons to itself.

• On the periodic chart,

electronegativity

increases as you go…

– …from left to right

across a row.

– …from the bottom to

the top of a column.
