ELEMENTS OF CHEMISTRY
STUDY TIP
• The Study Cycle:
• Preview • Attend Class • Review • Study • Check PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
• Properties that describe the look or feel of a substance
• Color • Hardness • Density • Texture • Phase PHYSICAL PROPERTIES CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
• Transforms from one substance
to another • Any change in a substance that involves a rearrangement of the way atoms are bonded • Materials undergoing a chemical change are said to be reacting CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Formation of H2O from Hydrogen and Oxygen Combustion of Methane:
CHEMICAL BOND
• Force of attraction between atoms
• Bonds change during chemical reactions ELEMENTS ARE MADE OF ATOMS
• An element is any material consisting of only one type of atom
The way atoms combine leads to the great variety of substances ELEMENTS AND ATOMS Elemental Formula: Shows number of atoms in molecules of elements CONCEPT CHECK
• O2 is converted to Ozone in the presence of an electric spark. Is this a physical
or chemical change?
Which form of oxygen (O2 or O3) is its elemental form?
USING THE PERIODIC TABLE
•Organizes the known
elements •Shows atomic symbol for each element METALS, METALLOIDS, AND NONMETALS
Metals: shiny, malleable, and good conductors
Metalloids: metallic/nonmetallic properties
Nonmetals: poor conductors, dull, brittle
PERIODS AND GROUPS
• Periods: 7 Horizonal Rows
• Atomic size decreases as you move to the right PERIODS AND GROUPS
• Groups (Families): 18 vertical columns • Similar chemical behavior • Mendeleev • Traditional Names (KNOW THESE!!) KAHOOT
