What is chemistry?• Chemistry deals with non-reversible
changes of matter.
• Chemistry explains using atoms and molecules.
• Chemical Concepts and Models improve your problem solving skills
• Chemistry is a Central Science
What is Matter
• Matter: Anything that has a mass and volume. The opposite of matter is energy.
• Matter and Energy is intertwined.

Hierarchy of Matter
How do you Separate Mixtures?
• Flotation: based on density
• Filtration: Solid- liquid
• Distillation- Liquid-liquid
• Magnetic Separation- Magnetic-
• Chromatography:
• 1) Paper 2) Column 3) Gas
What is a Substance?• Substance:
• Substance is what matter is made up of. Substances are either elements or compounds.
• Pure substances:
• have characteristic properties such as color, boiling point and reactivity.
What is an Element
• Element: Elements are substances made up of only one kind of atoms.
• Eg. oxygen- O2,
• iron-Fe,
• copper-Cu.
What is a Compound?
• Compounds: Compounds are substances made up of more than one kind of atoms.
• E.g. Water -H2O.
Properties of Substances• Physical properties:
• Physical properties are descriptions of matter such as color, density, viscosity, boiling point, and melting point.
• Chemical properties:
• Chemical properties relates to the changes of substances making up the matter. For example, corrosiveness, Flammability
Type of Changes• Physical change:
• A change in the state of matter. It does not involve a change in the substances. E.g. melting of wax and water.
• Chemical change: • A change involving at least one of the
substances making the matter. E.g. Electrolysis of water, formation of rust: reaction of iron and oxygen to from iron oxide.
Scientific Method.
• A method common to all sciences
• Four Basic Steps:
• a) Experiment
• b) Results
• c) Hypothesis
• d) Further experiments to test
• hypothesis
Measurement• Measurements or observations are made
• using our physical senses or using scientific instruments.
• 1) Qualitative measurements.
• Changes that cannot be expressed in terms of a number.
• 2) Quantitative measurements.
• expressed in terms of a number and an unit.
Measurement
• Number
• a) Uncertainty (significant figures)
• b) Precision
• c) Accuracy
• Unit
• a) basic units
• b) derived units
Significant Figures:
• indicate the uncertainty
• rules to obtain the significant figures
• Significant• 1) Non-zero digits are always significant.
• 2) Any zeros between two significant digits 3)Trailing zeros in the decimal portion
• Not significant • 1) leading zeros • 2) trailing zeros in whole numbers (use
scientific notion to avoid confusion.• 3) Exact numbers: unit definition has an
unlimited number of sig. digs. 1 ft = 12 in • Rounding off: superfluous digit(s) is/are• 1) less than 5, the preceding figure is
retained. • 2. Greater than 5, the last place retained is
increased by one• 3. Iof the digit 5 exactly rounded off to a
even.
Examples
• 0.00341........3 sig. digs.
• 1.0040.........5 sig. digs.
• 0.00005........1 sig. digs.
• 65000.......… 2 sig. digs. 6.5 x 104
• 40300..........3 sig. digs.
• 200300.........4 sig. digs. 2.003 x 105
Significant figure in Calculations
•1. Adding/ subtracting numbers.
•2. In multiplication and division
•3. The root or power of a number
• 4. Exact Numbers
Adding/ subtracting
•Arrange the numbers in columnar form. Use most uncertain digit to round off the answer.
multiplication and division
•the result should have no more sig. digs. than the factor having the fewest number of sig. digs.
Root or Power of a number
•should have as many sig. digs. as the number itself.
•Exact Numbers: Numbers coming from definitions such as 12 in = 1 foot. They are not considered in Sig. Fig. Calcualtions.
a) 10.26 + 0.02 + 450 = 460.28 = 460 2 significant figures
ones place in 450 has the greatest uncertainty
b) 3.56 x 1.2 = 4.272 = 4.3 2 significant figuresc) 356.001 x 15.43
-------------------- = 45.58585 = 45.59 120.5
4 significant figuresc) (2.8 + 3.4) (2.35 - 4.1) = 6.2 x (-1.75) = 6.2 x (-1.75) = -10.85 = -11 2 significant figures

CONVERSION FACTORS
•convert from one unit to another
• Length:1 km = 10 3 m; 1 ft = 12 in;• 1 in = 2.54 cm;1 cm = 10-2 m; 1 yd = 3
ft;• 1 m = 39.37 in• 1 mm = 10-3 m 1 mile = 5280 ft ;• 1 mile = 1.609 km;1 nm = 10-9 m• Volume:1 m3 = 106 cm3 ;1 gal = 4 qt
= 8 pt; 1 ft 3 = 28.32 L;1 cm3 = 1 mL; 1 qt = 57.75 in3 ;1 L = 1.057 qt
• Mass:1 kg = 103 g; 1 lb = 16 oz; 1 lb = 453.6 g; 1 mg = 10-3 g; 1 short ton =2000 lb
• 1 g = 0.03527 oz;1 metric ton =103 kg• 1 metric ton =1.102 short ton
Unit Conversion MethodDimensional(Unit) Analysis
• Normally calculations are done using an equation.
• Method of calculations using units
• a) write the measurement you want convert
• b)Find all conversion factors needed
• c) arrange all conversion factors to cancel and to get units of the answer
Factor Label Method• 3 km ---> ? m ; • conversion factor: 1 km = 1000m• 1 km 1000m• ------- or --------• 1000m 1 km• 1000 m • 3 km x ----------- = 3000 m• 1 km
3.00 x 108 m 6.21 x 10-4 mile 31536000 s
1 s 1 m 1 yr
= 5.87 x 1012
mile/yr
.Speed of light is 3.00 x 108 m s-1 . Convert the speed of light to miles per year (1 mile = 1.61 km).
Temperature Conversions
• oF -- > oC ; C = 5/9 (F - 32)
• oC -- > oF ; F =9/5 C + 32
• oC -- > K ; K = C + 273.15• Human body temperature is 98.6 oF.
Convert this temperature to oC and K scale
• oC = 5/9 (98.6 - 32) = 5/9 (66.6) = 37.0
• oC--> K = 37.0 oC +273.15 = 310.2 K
Density Calculations• Equation method:
• Density = mass ÷ volume; d = m/v
• Factor Label method:14.2 g -- > ? cm3
