Isotopes and Atomic Mass

This page expands on the concept of isotopes and introduces the calculation of average atomic mass. Key points include:

Detailed explanation of isotopes and their properties
Introduction to allotropes of carbon
Calculation of average atomic mass using weighted averages

Highlight: Isotopes of an element have the same atomic number (number of protons) but different mass numbers due to varying numbers of neutrons.

The page provides examples of isotopes for hydrogen and carbon, and explains how isotopes can undergo chemical changes and spontaneous decay.

Example: Isotopes of Hydrogen: Protium (¹H), Deuterium (²H), Tritium (³H)

The concept of average atomic mass is introduced, explaining that it is the weighted average of all isotopes of an element.

Definition: Average Atomic Mass - The weighted average of the masses of all isotopes of an element, taking into account their relative abundances.

The page also begins to introduce Bohr's model of the atom and the concept of energy levels for electrons.

Electron Configuration and Energy Levels

This final page focuses on the distribution of electrons in atoms and introduces electron configuration notation. Key concepts covered include:

Bohr's model of the atom
Energy levels and their relation to electron distribution
Maximum number of electrons per energy level (2N²)
Electron configuration notation using s, p, d, and f orbitals

Example: Electron configuration for Carbon: 1s² 2s² 2p²

The page provides examples of electron configurations for various elements and introduces electron dot diagrams (Lewis structures).

Vocabulary: Ground state - The lowest energy state of an atom, where electrons occupy the lowest available energy levels.

The concept of ions is briefly introduced, explaining how metals lose electrons to form cations and non-metals gain electrons to form anions.

Definition: Cation - A positively charged ion formed when an atom loses one or more electrons. Definition: Anion - A negatively charged ion formed when an atom gains one or more electrons.

The page concludes with a brief mention of the aufbau principle for filling electron orbitals, setting the stage for more advanced discussions of electronic structure.

Separation Techniques for Mixtures

This page focuses on técnicas para separar mezclas heterogéneas and covers various methods used to separate different types of mixtures. The key separation techniques discussed include:

Separatory funnel: Used to separate liquids based on density differences.
Filtration: Separates heterogeneous mixtures, often solids from liquids.
Manual separation: Physical separation of visible components.
Magnetism: Uses magnets to separate magnetic materials from non-magnetic ones.
Centrifugation: Separates liquids of different densities, like blood cells from plasma.
Distillation: Separates liquids with different boiling points.
Chromatography: Separates mixtures based on molecular polarity.

Example: Separating salt and sand: 1) Dissolve the mixture in water, 2) Set up filtration using a funnel and filter paper, 3) Collect the salt solution (filtrate), 4) Evaporate the water to recover the salt.

The page also introduces the concept of atoms and subatomic particles, laying the groundwork for more detailed atomic structure discussions.

Definition: Heterogeneous mixture - A mixture where the components are visibly distinct and can be separated by physical means.

Calculating Subatomic Particles and Atomic Structure

This page delves into cómo calcular partículas subatómicas dentro de un átomo and explores the fundamental structure of atoms. Key concepts covered include:

Atomic number and its relation to protons and electrons
Mass number and its connection to protons and neutrons
Calculating the number of subatomic particles in an atom

Vocabulary: Atomic number - The number of protons in an atom's nucleus, which determines the element's identity.

The page provides a detailed table of subatomic particles, including their charge, mass, and location within the atom. It also introduces isotopic notation and gives examples of calculating subatomic particles for various elements.

Example: For Argon-40 (⁴⁰Ar), Atomic number = 18, Mass number = 40 Number of protons = 18, Number of electrons = 18, Number of neutrons = 40 - 18 = 22

The concept of isotopes is introduced, explaining that isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons.

Definition: Isotopes - Atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons.

Dimensional Analysis and Unit Conversions

This page introduces cómo utilizar el análisis dimensional para convertir variables known to unknown. It covers the following key points:

The page demonstrates how to use dimensional analysis to convert between different units of measurement. It provides step-by-step examples for converting centimeters to meters, grams to kilograms, and milliliters to cubic millimeters.

Example: Converting 15 cm to meters: 15 cm x (1 m / 100 cm) = 0.15 m

The page also includes a more complex example of calculating the number of seconds in a year using dimensional analysis and unit conversion factors.

Highlight: Dimensional analysis allows systematic conversion between units by setting up conversion factors that cancel out unwanted units.

Additionally, the page touches on particle diagrams for substances, mixtures and phases, showing visual representations of elements, compounds, and different states of matter.

Vocabulary: Dimensional analysis - A problem-solving method that uses the fact that any number or expression can be multiplied by one without changing its value.
