FUNDAMENTALS OF CHEMISTRY
Science
The word Science is derived from the Latin word scientia, which means knowledge
...
It is the knowledge that provides understanding of this world
and how it works
...


Chemistry
Chemistry is the branch of science that deals with the study of properties, composition and structure of matter
along with chemical changes involved in it and principles that govern these changes
...
There are four states of matter:1
...


Solid
Gas

For example it
has generated toxic wastes, contaminated water and polluted air around us
...

Plato adopted Empedocles theory and coined the term element to
describe these substances
...
He thought
that all matter was derived from four elements:




Earth:
Air:
Fire:
Water:

Earth is dry and cold
Air is wet and hot
Fire is hot and dry
Water is cold and wet

...


All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms
...
They have same mass and same volume
...
They combine in simple ratios
...


Modern picture of an atom
Modern research has clearly shown that atom is further composed of subatomic particles such as electron,
proton and neutron
...

Empedocles concept:
An ancient Greek philosopher, Empedocles thought that all materials are made up of four things called
elements

Differentiation between branches of Chemistry
Acetic acid chemical formula: CH3COOH
Source: Vinegar which contain 5% acetic acid
...

Let’s see how various types of studies on this compound can help us to differentiate between the above
mentioned eight branches of chemistry
...
Explanation of conversion of acetic acid from solid to liquid and liquid to gaseous state and vice versa,
the application of laws and theories to understand its structure is physical chemistry

The following figure shows simple classification of matter into
different forms:-

Classification of Matter

Substance
Any matter that has a particular set of characteristics that differ from the characteristics of another kind of
matter is called a substance
...


Element
A substance that cannot be converted to other simpler substances is called an element
...
An element is now defined as a substance
whose all the atoms have the same atomic number
...
The properties of compounds are different from the properties of the
elements from which they are formed
...

Elements and compounds have uniform composition throughout

Mixture
An impure substance that contains two or more pure substances that retain their individual chemical
characteristics is called a mixture
...
Examples of mixture are air, water containing dissolved oxygen, table salt dissolved in water, salt +
sand etc
...
For
example sand + salt, oil floating on water etc
...
For example sugar mixed in water, salt
dissolved in water
...


Difference between a Compound and Mixture
Sr
...

They are made up of two or more elements
combined chemically
...

Compounds have fixed properties
...

A compound can have properties different
from its constituents, as a new substance is
formed when the constituents are
chemically combined
...


Mixtures
Mixtures are impure substances
...

The constituents of a mixture are present in
varying ratios
...
Their
properties depend on the nature of their components and the ratios in which they are combined
...
The
properties of a mixture are the same as the
properties of its constituents
...


Atomic Number
The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is known as its atomic number
...

For e
...
, there is only one proton in the nucleus of hydrogen atom; therefore its atomic number is 1
...
Do you think atomic number of He is 2?
Ans
...


Mass Number
The total number of protons and neutrons in an atom is known as its mass number
...

Q3
...
Carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 neutrons; hence its mass number is 12

No

Example 1
...
How many protons and neutrons are in the
nucleus of an atom of this element?
Solution
Number of protons = atomic number
= 17
Number of neutrons = mass number – atomic number
= 35 – 17 = 18

Relative Atomic Mass and Atomic Mass Unit
An atom is extremely small particle; therefore we cannot determine the mass of a single atom
...
The light isotope
of carbon (C-12) has been chosen as a standard, with reference to which atomic masses of all other elements
can be determined
Thus
“The mass of an atom of an element relative to the mass of an atom of C-12 is called its relative atomic mass”
...
40% as massive as the standard C-12

A chemical formula tells us:



Which elements are present in a compound
The whole number ratio of their atoms

In a chemical formula element’s symbol and numerical subscripts show the type and the number of each atom
in a compound
...
For example in compound hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) there is one H atom for every O
atom
...
So the empirical formula of hydrogen peroxide is
written as HO
...
The simplest ratio between C, H and O atoms in glucose is 1 : 2 :1
...
Empirical formula of glucose = CH2O

Molecular Formula
A molecular formula gives the actual whole number ratio of atoms of each element present in a compound
...
g
...
Therefore, actual
ratio of hydrogen to oxygen atoms is 2 : 2
...

Q5
...
What is the molecular
formula of glucose?
Ans
...


Difference between Empirical formula and molecular formula
An empirical formula shows the simplest number of atoms of each element in a compound whereas the
molecular formula shows the actual number of atoms of each element in the molecule of a compound
...
Benzene is a compound of carbon and hydrogen
...
There are
actually six C atoms and six H atoms in each molecule of benzene

Molecular mass of molecule AxB = x (atomic mass of A) + atomic mass of B
For example;
Molecular mass of water H2O = 2(atomic mass of H) + atomic mass of O

= 2 + 16
= 18 amu

Example 1
...
Determine the molecular mass of glucose C6H12O6 which is known as blood sugar
...
Determine the molecular mass of naphthalene C10H8, which is used in mothballs

Ionic compounds consist of oppositely charged ions rather
than separate molecules

There are two types of ions:
1) Cations
An atom or group of atoms having positive charge on it is called cation
...
For e
...
, Na form Na+ by losing one electron, Ca forms Ca+2 by losing
two electrons
...
Non-metal atoms usually gain
one or more electrons and form anions
...
g
...

Q10
...
An ion acquires a net positive or negative charge due to difference in number of protons and
electrons in it
...


Note that sodium has a nucleus of 11 protons and 12 neutrons
...

Around the nucleus, in the ion are 10 electrons, with a total charge of -10
...
5
Explain why?
1
...

Answer: An oxide ion has a nucleus of 8 protons and 8 neutrons
...

8 protons has charge = +8
10 electrons has charge = -10
So, Net charge on the ion =(+8) + ( – 10) = -2

Magnesium ion, Mg+2 has +2 charge
...
Around the nucleus, there are 10
electrons in magnesium ion
...
Sulphide ion, S-2 has -2 charge
...
Around the nucleus, there are 18 electrons in
sulphide ion
...
These ions are short
lived species and only exist at high temperature
...

Examples
 When O2 loses an electron it forms O2⁺ ion, but when it absorbs an electron it forms O2¯ ion
...

 Similarly N2¯and N2⁺ etc are examples of molecular ions of N2 gas
...
A molecule is made up of atoms of one or more elements
...
In a molecule, the
atoms are combined in a certain fixed ratio
...

...
When electron/s
are removed, the ion gains a net positive charge, while addition of electrons will give a net negative
charge to the molecular ion
...

3
...
In
comparison, a molecular ion is either positively charged or negatively charged, depending on whether it
gained or lost electron/s

A free radical is an atom which has an
unpaired (having odd number) electron
and bears no electric charge
...

6
7

Free radicals are not charged species even
if they have unpaired electrons
In a free radical, the number of electrons is
equal to the number of protons

Ion
Ion is an atom or group of atoms having a charge
on it
...

Ions always hold a charge
In an ion, the total number of electrons is always
not equal to the number of protons in the nucleus

064g

(vii) CO2 = 44g ;
let Carbon be X
X + 2(16) = 44g
X + 32 = 44g
X = 44 – 32
X = 12g
(viii)

(ix) Because O2 and H2O have molecules
(x) 1 mole of C = 12g = x atoms
1 mole of Mg = 24g = x atoms
12 g of Mg = 0
...

So, 12 g of Mg contain 0
