Atomic Structure and Significant Figures

This introductory section establishes fundamental chemistry concepts, focusing on atomic structure and numerical precision in calculations.

Definition: Significant figures are digits that carry meaning in a measurement, determining precision in calculations.

Example: In the number 0.0025, there are 2 significant figures as leading zeros don't count.

Highlight: The electron configuration follows a specific order: 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, and so on, following the Aufbau principle.

Vocabulary: SPDF notation refers to the quantum mechanical description of electron orbitals, where:

s = sharp
p = principal
d = diffuse
f = fundamental

Periodic Trends and Atomic Properties

This section explores fundamental periodic trends and atomic properties, essential for understanding chemical behavior.

Definition: Atomic radius trend shows how the size of atoms changes across the periodic table.

Highlight: Electronegativity trend increases from left to right across a period and decreases down a group.

Example: Carbon (atomic number 6) has 6 electrons arranged in 1s² 2s² 2p².

Vocabulary: Effective Nuclear Charge (ENC) refers to the net positive charge experienced by an electron from the nucleus.

Page 8: Acids, Bases, and pH Calculations

Comprehensive coverage of acid-base chemistry and pH calculations.

Definition: pH is the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

Example: To find pH from [H⁺] = 0.0035, calculate -log(0.0035) = 2.45

Highlight: pH + pOH = 14 in all aqueous solutions.

Page 6: Solutions and Concentration

Comprehensive coverage of solution chemistry, including types of solutions and concentration calculations.

Definition: Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

Vocabulary: Electrolytes are substances that produce ions when dissolved in water.

Highlight: "Like dissolves like" principle: polar substances dissolve in polar solvents.

View

Page 3: Empirical and Molecular Formulas

Detailed explanation of empirical and molecular formula calculations, including hydrate determinations.

Definition: An empirical formula shows the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.

Example: For a compound with Na (32.37%), S (22.57%), and O (45.06%), calculate moles of each element to determine the empirical formula.

Highlight: Molecular formula can be found by dividing the actual molar mass by the empirical formula mass.

View

Page 7: Solubility Rules

Detailed presentation of solubility rules for aqueous solutions.

Definition: Solubility rules predict whether compounds will dissolve in water under standard conditions.

Highlight: All nitrates and acetates are soluble.

Example: Halides are soluble except when combined with Ag⁺, Pb²⁺, and Hg⁺.

Empirical and Molecular Formulas

This section covers how to determine chemical formulas from experimental data.

Definition: An empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.

Example: For a compound with 32.37% Na, 22.57% S, and 45.06% O, the process involves converting percentages to moles.

Highlight: The molecular formula can be determined by comparing the empirical formula mass to the actual molar mass.

Page 4: Limiting Reactants and Yield Calculations

Comprehensive coverage of limiting reactant problems and yield calculations in chemical reactions.

Definition: The limiting reactant is the reactant that determines the maximum amount of product possible.

Example: In the reaction 2N₂ + 5O₂ → 2N₂O₅, calculate limiting reactant using given masses.

Vocabulary: Theoretical yield is the maximum amount of product possible based on the limiting reactant.

Page 5: Gas Laws and Pressure Measurements

Detailed explanation of gas laws, pressure measurements, and related calculations.

Definition: The Combined Gas Law relates pressure, volume, and temperature for a fixed amount of gas.

Highlight: 1 atm = 760 mmHg = 101.325 kPa = 14.7 psi

Example: Using PV = nRT to calculate molar mass or density of gases.
