All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike - and yet it is the most precious thing
we have.-Albert Einstein
This is thebasics of *DOING*

Matter’s propertiesMatter’s properties• When observing matter, we observe many of its properties.
• Extensive Property - depends upon how large your sample of matter is.– What are some extensive properties?
• Mass and volume are extensive properties.
• Intensive Property - unique to that type of matter, and does not depend on sample size.– What are some intensive properties?
• Density, and melting point are intensive properties.

States of Matter and ChangesStates of Matter and Changes• The four primary states of matter are: (?)
• solid, liquid, gas, and high energy plasma.
• When we observe properties, these can be physical or chemical properties:
• Physical property - can be observed without changing the substance.
• (color, mass, others?)
• Chemical property - requires that the substance be changed to be observed.
• (flammability, others?)

Changes of MatterChanges of Matter• Physical change - substance does not change,
just the form.– (It can also revert back to its original state…ie:
melting and vaporization)
• Chemical change - original substance is lost, and a new substance is formed.– (The original substance cannot be returned without
additional chemical changes.)
• Which kinds of changes are these?:– Burning, freezing, vinegar + baking soda, and
opening a soda bottle,

Chemical ReactionsChemical Reactions• When chemicals react, we call them “reactants”
and they are placed on the left side of a “chemical reaction equation”:
• The chemical(s) that is produced is called a “product”, placed on the right.
• Remember:
“Reactants react to produce products”

Energy TransferEnergy Transfer• The law of conservation of energy states that
energy cannot be created or destroyed.• We can force energy to change form and store
energy in various forms.– How is a flashlight battery like gasoline in a car?
• Exothermic process – releases energy.– (think exit energy)
• Endothermic process – takes energy from surroundings.– (think into energy)
• Can you think of an exothermic reaction?• Can you think of an endothermic reaction?

From the macro to the micro…From the macro to the micro…• We can classify matter in terms of its complexity:• Mixture - collection of two or more physically different
compounds.– The compounds in a mixture can be separated out without
the need to chemically change either of the compounds.
• Two types of mixtures are Homogeneous (homo) meaning “same”)…– Homogenous mixtures cannot be easily separated
• And Heterogeneous (“hetero” meaning “different”)– Heterogeneous mixtures can be separated with simple
mechanical processes. These often have “phases.”

A step closer to the micro…A step closer to the micro…• A compound - substance made up of two or
more pure elements.
• Water is a compound because it is composed of the elements H and O.
• Table salt is a compound because it is composed of the elements Na and Cl.
• A compound cannot be separated from its elemental makeup– (without destroying the compound)
• Compounds have very different properties than their elements.

The micro…The micro…• Elements - simplest form of pure substances.
– There are approximately 110 elements, and they can be found on the periodic table.
• Elements consist of a single type of atom.
• Water is NOT an element. Pure diamond IS an element. Why?
• Allotropes – different forms of a single element.
• Each allotrope has different properties due to different arrangements of its atoms.– Diamond and graphite are allotropes.

The The very microvery micro……• Atom - smallest thing with the properties of something
in the macro.– (a single helium atom will function just like a the helium in a party
balloon.
• Atoms = protons and neutrons in the nucleus + electrons in electron orbits.
• Properties of atoms depends upon the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the atom– (we’ll get into atomic and sub-atomic theory later.)
• Isotopes - Two atoms with same number of protons (are the same element) but a different number of neutrons
• Ions - Atoms with a different number of electrons

The Periodic TableThe Periodic Table• The periodic table is a collection of all the
known elements into a model that groups elements with similar properties.
• Vertical columns are Groups of elements with similar properties.

Three Main Areas of the Periodic TableThree Main Areas of the Periodic Table
• Metals are found on the left.– Metals tend to be malleable, ductile, and good
conductors of heat and electricity.
• Nonmetals are found on the right.– Nonmetals tend to be brittle, and poor conductors of
e- and heat.
The elements between metals and nonmetals
are called Metalloids and have some
characteristics of both metals and nonmetals

The Scientific Method The Scientific Method (p29 in text)(p29 in text)• The scientific method - process of solving problems by asking and testing
questions.• Observation
– Observation of a natural phenomena.• Question
– Create a question to test your observations.• Hypothesis
– A reasonable explanation of your observations. A possible answer to your question. This is NOT a guess. Your text: A Testable statement
• Experiment/Test– A controlled observation (a test of your hypothesis).
• Collect and Analyze Data– Experimental results must be collected and interpreted. A
valid experiment must be reproducible.• Conclusions
– Data is explained and compared to the hypothesis. The final step… What next? How can I this new information?

Theory vs. LawTheory vs. Law• Theory - an explanation of observations of
natural phenomena.– A theory cannot be proven, but it has never been
disproven.– If a theory is disproven, it must be modified or
rejected.– A theory explains whywhy things do what they do.
• Law - a description of fact.– A law describes whatwhat willwill happenhappen.– Because a law is a description of fact, it cannot be
broken.

Measuring…Standard UnitsMeasuring…Standard Units• Standard units we use in the sciences:
• Meter – length (m)
• Kilogram* – mass (kg)
• Second – time (s)
• Kelvin – temperature (K)
• Liter** – volume (L)• Mole – amount of substance (mol) (more later)
• AMU – atomic mass (amu) (more later)
– * in lab, we will usually measure in grams, (g)– ** in lab, we will usually measure in milliliters, (mL)

Measuring…SI PrefixesMeasuring…SI Prefixes• Prefixes are added to the standard units to express
measurements that are very large or very small. Common prefixes are:
• kilo – (k) x103 (x 1,000)– kilogram = 1000 grams
• milli – (m) x10-3 (x 1/1,000)– milliliter = 0.001 liters
• micro – (μ) x10-6 (x 1/1,000,000)• Mega – (M) x106 (x 1,000,000)• centi – (c) x10-2 (x 1/100)
– centimeter = 0.01 meters
• nano – (n) x10-9 (x 1/1,000,000,000)
1.0ml = 1.0cc
cc = cm3

by a power of ten.• Example:
• To convert 12 meters to centimeters…
• Or to convert 345 milligrams to grams…
• REMEMBER: If the unit gets bigger, the number gets smaller! (and vice versa)

Measuring…Scientific NotationMeasuring…Scientific Notation• Scientific notation - a form of shorthand used to
express numbers that are very large or very small.• SciNot - real decimal number, multiplied by a base-ten
exponent.– The number is expressed with one digit to the left of
the decimal– and the base-ten exponent is always an integer.
• For instance, 135000 becomes 1.35 x105.
• Can you figure what 4500 is?• How about moving the decimal the other way…try
0.00056.

Measuring…Significant DigitsMeasuring…Significant Digits• Significant Digits tells us how many digits to
include in our measurements, calculations, and answers.– It is a measure of how accurate our equipment is.
• Rules:– All non-zero numbers are significant.
• 1, 2, 256, 952456
– Zeros between significant numbers are significant.• 303, 50034, 1001
– Zeros to the RIGHT of a decimal are significant.• 3.000, 24.0, 31.0000, 35.520
– Zeroes to the LEFT of a decimal are NOT.• 4000, 256000, 10, 2400, 1 000 000 000

Bires, 2004 Slide 28
Why Use Significant Digits?Why Use Significant Digits?• We use Significant Digits to express
accuracy.• When you measure something, your
measurement is only as accurate as your weakest instrument.
• When you add figures, round your answer to the least number of digits after the decimal.
• When you multiply, express your result with the least significant digits.
• What is the volume of a box 2.34m wide, 3.1m deep, and 3.56m long?

Qualitative vs. Quantitative Qualitative vs. Quantitative MeasurementsMeasurements
• Qualitative measurement – a description of an object.– “blue” “sticky” “smelly.”
• Quantitative measurement – data expressed with numbers and units.– “42.3 kilograms” “14 kilometers per hour” “3.80
grams.”
• To accurately describe a compound or solution in chemistry:– use color, transparency, and texture/state.– “A colorless, clear, liquid.” ?

Accuracy and PrecisionAccuracy and Precision• Accuracy - closeness to an accepted
value.• Precision - closeness of a set of
measurements.– we strive for accuracy and demand
precision!– All equipment has a level of precision that
you should record in lab. (ie: +/- 0.001gram)
• We use a percent error calculations when working with data.

RelationshipsRelationships• If one variable changes as another
changes, we say they have a relationship.
• Direct relationship:– If A increases as B increases– If their quotient is a constant (y/x = k),
we say they are directly proportional.
• Inverse relationship:– If A decreases as B increases– If their product is a constant (yx=k),
we say they are inversely proportional.

Factor Label Analysis (T-chart)Factor Label Analysis (T-chart)• Factor label analysis is a way of converting
between a number of units.
• Convert 32,000 inches into miles, knowing that there are 1609 meters in a mile and 39.4 inches in a meter.
• Using factor analysis helps keep us from making costly mistakes by using the units (labels) as a check.
• Convert 1.5 days into seconds
• Convert 36 pounds into grams
• Convert 44 ounces (fluid) into mL.

A Little MoleA Little Mole• The mole is an amount, much like a
dozen.
• Referred to as Avogadro's number,
the mole is equal to 6.02x1023 things.
• We’ll find this number to be very handy later. For now, just know that when you see one mole, that equals
6.02x1023 things.
