What is Chemistry?

Chemistry is the study of matter and its interaction with other matter and energy.

What is Energy?
It is either light or Heat ( it can interacts w types of matter; absorbed or released)

What is Matter?
It is something with mass and also something that takes up space.

Matter can be broken down into pure substance or mixture.

(Insert Diagram 1 from notebook here)

Units
Meters (m)
Kg – mass
Moles- amount of something mol=6.02x10 somthings (number of anything in a mole… ex. Number or student per mole) – Number of atoms of Carbon in one mole
Seconds- Time (s)
Temperature (K- Kelvin)
L- Volume =0.001m3
J= k*gm3/s2

Conservations

Current x _Desired/ Currents_= Desired Units

Ex. 1.00x102g Hg 13.6g/L

Sig Figs- keep track of how precise your measurement is..

(Insert Sig Figs Example here)

Rules of Sig Figs:
1. Any non zero digit is significant
2. Any zero in between integers is significant
3. Leading zeros- 0.0003.. Not Significant (so all the four 0’s)
4. Trailing zeroes- if there is a decimal point all of the zeroes are significant- ex. 100.00; If it without a decimal point then it is not significant. Ex. 100

100- 1 sig fig BUT 1.0x102 – is also 100 but has 2 sig figs
1.00000x102 – has 6 sig figs

635- has 3 sig figs… (The precision happened in the highlighted digit)

6350- has 3 sig figs

635.00- has 5 sig figs… (The precision happened in the highlighted digit)

Ex. 0.00001234 – There is a decimal point and then there are zeroes but it does not start off with an integer so there are only 4 sig figs which are 1234. Ift it was 10.00001234 there will be 10 sig figs.

For Multiplication or Division- answer has same number of sig figs as the FEWEST in your calculations

(Insert example from notebook here)

For addition and subtraction : answer will match with the fewest decimals from your calculation.

(Insert Example from notebook here)

If you have multiplication/division and addition/ subtraction in one problem.. you combine the rules.

The power of a scientific theory-

One or more well established hypotheses may form the basis for a scientific theory. A scientific theory is a model for the way nature is and tries to explain not merely what nature does but why. As such, well established theories are the pinnacle of scientific knowledge often prediction behavior far beyond the observations or laws from which they were developed.

Why do atoms forms bonds?  Atoms want to have the same number of electrons as the nearest noble gas atom (noble gas configuration). This requires having a completely full or completely empty valence shell of electrons.  Most main groups atoms will try to have eight valence electrons to completely fill their valence shell; this is the octet rule. There are some exceptions: hydrogen…

Chemistry Honors In High School

while I was left scrambling to make sense of electronegativity. However, as I would love to pursue a nursing career, I knew I had to overcome my fear of molecules. I decided I had better do this sooner rather than later, so I signed myself up for Chem 1A at the local community college. I took the course in the summer when I knew I wouldn’t have to study for anything else, so I could devote all my study time to fully understanding the material. I ended up loving the class. The material was harder…

What Is A Kidney Ultrasound Performed By Barbara Jimenez

feature is precomputation. Barbara does this in two ways: 1) by pulling up the patient’s chart and 2) checking her settings. Barbara is actually reducing the amount of work that is being done by redistributing the cognitive workload (Hutchins Cogs 101A Lecture, 10/19/13). Barbara checks the patients weight, medical history and setting. In doing this, she identifies what transducer to use in order to penetrate the organ under investigation. A heavier patient would require a stronger transducer. Furthermore…

Linkage Isomerism Of Some Cobalt Complexes

they often occur in isomeric forms having the same empirical formula, but with a different arrangement of atoms. Many types of isomerism exist, more so than in organic chemistry e.g. geometrical, optical, ionisation, ligand isomerism etc. (see CH160 lecture notes). Linkage isomers arise because some ligands can bond via one donor atom in one compound, but via a different atom of the same ligand in another compound. Typical examples of linkage isomersism are: NO2– M-NO2 nitrito-κN (formerly nitro) M-ONO…
