1. Chapter One Matter and Life Fundamentals of General, Organic & Biological Chemistry

2. 2 1.1 Chemistry: The Central Science Chemistry is often referred to as “The Central Science” because it is crucial to all other sciences.

3. 3 Matter: Anything that has mass and occupies space – things you can see, touch, taste, or smell. Property: a characteristic that can be used to describe a substance. Size, color, temperature are most familiar properties of matter. Less familiar properties include: Chemical composition: what matter is made of. Chemical Reactivity: how matters behave.

4. 4  Physical Change: Does not alter the chemical makeup of a substance. Change is reversible. Melting of solid ice is a physical change. In this case only change in form takes place and the change is reversible. Chemical Change: Alters chemical makeup of a substance. Change is irreversible. Rusting of iron is a chemical change. Here, iron combines with oxygen and produces a new substance rust.

5. 5 States of Matter

6. 6  Solids have  A definite shape.  A definite volume.  Particles that are close together in a fixed arrangement.  Particles that move very slowly. Solids

7. 7  Liquids have  An indefinite shape, but a definite volume.  The same shape as their container.  Particles that are close together, but mobile.  Particles that move slowly. Liquids

8. 8  Gases have  An indefinite shape.  An indefinite volume.  The same shape and volume as their container.  Particles that are far apart.  Particles that move fast. Gases

12. 12 1.3 Classification of Matter Pure Substance: Uniform in its chemical composition and properties. Sugar and water are pure substances. Mixture: Composition and properties may vary. Different amounts of sugar dissolved in water will determine sweetness of water. Sugar water is an example of a mixture.

13. 13 Chemical Compounds: Substance that can be broken down into simpler substances. Water is a chemical compound since it can be broken down into hydrogen and oxygen by passing electric current through it. Element: Substance that can not be broken down chemically into simpler substances. Hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen are example of elements.

14. 14 The classification of matter is summarized in Fig 1.4 below.

15. 15 1.5 Elements and Symbols

16. 16  Elements are pure substances that cannot be separated into simpler substances by ordinary laboratory processes.  Elements are the building blocks of matter.  There are 115 elements known today. gold carbon aluminum Elements

17. 17 Sources of Some Element Names

18. 18  Every element has a symbol that represents its name.  Symbols consist of 1 or 2 letters.  Only the first letter in a symbol is capitalized. Examples: 1-Letter Symbols 2-Letter Symbols C carbon Co cobalt N nitrogenCa calcium F fluorine Al aluminum O oxygen Mg magnesium Symbols of Elements

19. 19 Several symbols are derived from Latin names. Some examples are shown below: copper, Cu (cuprum) gold, Au (aurum) iron, Fe (ferrum) silver, Ag (argentum) Symbols from Latin Names

20. 20 Carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen are the most abundant elements in the human body. Elements in the Body

21. 21  The physical properties of an element are the characteristics that can be observed without changing the substance. Physical Properties

24. 24 The Periodic Table Elements

25. 25 The periodic table arranges elements according to similar properties. Periodic Table

26. 26 On the periodic table, each vertical column is called a group of elements. A group contains elements with similar chemical and physical properties. Each group is identified by a group number at the top of the column. The representative elements have group numbers of 1A – 8A. The transition element Groups on the Periodic Table

27. 27 Groups and Group Numbers

28. 28 Numbering Groups One numbering system for groups assigns the letter A to the representative elements and the letter B to the transition elements. Another system assigns the numbers 1-18 to the columns across the periodic table.

29. 29 Group Numbers Group numbers

30. 30 Several groups of representative elements are classified by name. Group 1AAlkali Metals Group 2AAlkaline Earth Metals Group 7A Halogens Group 8ANoble Gases Representative Elements

32. 32 Group 1A, the alkali metals, includes sodium, lithium, and potassium. Group 7A, the halogens, includes chlorine, bromine, and iodine. Representative Elements

33. 33 On the periodic table, each horizontal row is called a period. A period is identified by a number such as 1, 2, 3, or 4. Periods 2-7 include representative elements and transition elements. Periods on the Periodic Table
