3 Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) gives information about a chemical -- lists “Dos” and “Don’ts;” emergency procedures --

4 Chemical Exposure a one-time exposure that causes damage acute exposure vs.chronic exposure damage occurs after repeated exposure reaction to drugs or medication e.g. smoking, asbestos

5 How Toxic is “Toxic?” Flammable Explosive Radioactive Corrosive Irritant Carcinogenic Mutagenic Teratogenic Chemicals may cause harm in many different ways:

6 the lethal dosage for 50% of the animals on which the chemical is tested LD 50 There are various ways an LD 50 can be expressed. For example, acetone has the following LD 50 s: ORL-RAT LD 50 : 5,800 mg/kg IHL-RAT LD 50 : 50,100 mg/m 3 h SKN-RBT LD 50 : 20 g/kg

7 LD 50 Example Which is more toxic? Chemical A is more toxic because LESS is necessary to kill half of a given population Chemical A: LD 50 = 3.2 mg/kg Chemical B: LD 50 = 48 mg/kg

8 Science

9 The Functions of Science pure science applied science the search for knowledge; facts using knowledge in a practical way e.g., properties of aluminum strong lightweight good conductor

10 Corning Glass Corning Glass Company FAILED…but SUCCEEDED at making great cookware that can withstand extremes in temperature. Design a face shield to protect and provide clear vision.

11 Aluminum Mining 1850s: aluminum sold for $500 / pound Charles Martin Hall Developed method to extract aluminum from bauxite Hall’s method –1 pound Al costs $ 0.30 4-6 pounds bauxite current1 lb Al + =

12 Science attempts to establish cause/effect relationships Science can NEVER prove a cause/effect relationship, only make a correlation…

13 risk-benefit analysis weigh pros and cons before deciding Because there are many considerations for each case, “black/white thinking” rarely applies. It is usually shades of grey.

14 How does scientific knowledge advance? 1. curiosity 2. determination 3. persistence 4. good observations

15 The Scientific Method

16 ** Key: Be a good observer. observationinference involves a judgment or an assumption uses the five senses

17 Types of Data Observations are also called data. qualitative data quantitative data colorless liquid -- -- e.g.,e.g., descriptionsmeasurements 17 mL; 83 o C (vs. clear liquid)

18 Candle Observation Activity

19 A Description of a Burning Candle A photograph of a burning candle is shown 1 in the upper right corner. The candle is cylindrical 2 and has a diameter 3 of about 3 cm. The length of the candle was initially about 16 centimeters 4, and it changed slowly 5 during observation, decreasing about 1 cm in one hour 6. The candle is made of a translucent 7, white 8 solid 9 which has a slight odor 10 and no taste 11. It is soft enough to be scratched with the fingernail 12. There is a wick 13 which extends from top to bottom 14 of the candle along its central axis 15 and protrudes about 5 mm above the top of the candle 16. The wick is made of three strands of string braided together 17. A candle is lit by holding a source of flame close to the wick for a few seconds. Thereafter the source of flame can be removed and the flame sustains itself at the wick 18. The burning candle makes no sound 19. While burning, the body of the candle remains cool to the touch 20 except near the top. Within about 1.5 cm of the top the candle is warm 21 (but not hot) and sufficiently soft to mold easily 22. The flame flickers in response to air currents 23 and tends to become quite smoky while flickering 24. In the absence of air currents, the flame is of the form shown in the photograph, though it retains some movement at all times 25. The flame begins about 2 mm above the top of the candle 26, and at its base the flame has a blue tint 27. Immediately around the wick in a region about 2 mm wide and extending about 5 mm above the top of the wick 28 the flame is dark 29. This dark region is roughly conical in shape 30. Around this zone and extending about 1 cm above the dark zone is a region which emits yellow light 31, bright but not blinding 32. The flame has rather sharply defined sides 33 but a ragged top 34. The wick is white where it emerges from the candle 35, but from the base of the flame to the end of the wick 36 it is black, appearing burnt, except for the last 0,5 cm, where it glows red 37. The wick curls over about 3 mm from its end 38. As the candle becomes shorter, the wick shortens too, so as to extend roughly a constant length above the top of the candle 39. Heat is emitted by the flame 40, enough so that it becomes uncomfortable in 10 to 20 seconds if one holds his finger 10 cm to the side of the quiet flame 41 or 10 – 12 cm above the flame 42.

20 Parts of the Scientific Method Identify an unknown. Make a hypothesis: a testable prediction Repeatedly experiment to test hypothesis. procedure: order of events in experiment variable: any factor that could influence the result (i.e., a recipe)

21 A Scientific Experiment conclusion: must be based on the data Experiments must be controlled: Only one variable can change at a time! (Ideally…)

22 A Controlled Experiment?

23 Make observation Ask question Develop hypothesis Develop hypothesis Test hypothesis with an experiment Test hypothesis with an experiment Analyze data and draw conclusions Analyze data and draw conclusions Hypothesis IS supported Hypothesis IS supported Hypothesis is NOT supported Hypothesis is NOT supported Develop theory Develop theory Test hypothesis with further experiments Test hypothesis with further experiments Revise hypothesis Revise hypothesis Wysession, Frank, Yancopoulos, Physical Science Concepts in Action, 2004, page 8 Scientific Method

24 Scientific Law vs. Scientific Theory law: states what happens, i.e., a relationship between various quantities -- e.g., Newton’s law of gravity, --Laws are often written in the form of… an equation. laws of conservation

25 Theory of Gravity, Atomic Theory tries to explain WHY or HOW something happens theory: -- e.g., -- based on current evidence images of nickel atoms taken by an STM a scanning tunneling microscope (STM)

26 Phlogiston Theory of Burning 1. Flammable materials contain phlogiston 2. During burning, phlogiston is released into the air 3. Burning stops when… …object is out of phlogiston, or …the surrounding air contains too much phlogiston. (superceded by combustion theory of burning)

27 Chemistry

28 The Beginning The Greeks believed there were four elements Early practical chemistry: household goods, weapons, soap, wine, basic medicine earthwindfire water  ~ ~  ___ 

30 transmutation: we cannot transmute elements into different elements changing one substance into another COPPER GOLD  Philosopher’s Stone In ordinary chemical reactions…

31 Alchemy was practiced in many regions of the world, including China and the Middle East. Alchemy arrived in western Europe around the year 500 C.E. Modern chemistry evolved from alchemy.

32 Contributions of alchemists: experimental techniques new glassware information about elements developed several alloys

33 What is chemistry? the study of matter and its changes

34 Areas of Chemistry organic physical inorganic biochemistry studies everything except carbon e.g., compounds containing metals the study of carbon containing compounds measuring physical properties of substances the chemistry of living things e.g., the melting point of gold

50 Essential Math of Chemistry

51 Scientific Notation …used to express very large or very small numbers. Also used to maintain correct SF. Form:(# from 1 to 9.999) x 10 exponent 800= 8 x 10 x 10 = 8 x 10 2 2531 = 2.531 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 2.531 x 10 3 0.0014 = 1.4 10 10 10 = 1.4 x 10 –3 (-) exponent = number < 1 (+) exponent = number > 1

52 Put in standard form 1.87 x 10 –5 = 0.0000187 3.7 x 10 8 = 370,000,000 7.88 x 10 1 = 78.8 2.164 x 10 –2 = 0.02164 Change to scientific notation 12,340 = 1.234 x 10 4 0.369 = 3.69 x 10 –1 0.008 = 8 x 10 –3 1,000,000,000 = 1 x 10 9 6.02 x 10 23 = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

53 Using the Exponent Key EXPEE

58 All numerical data are the result of uncertain measurements. 8 m Accuracy and Precision precision: a measure of the degree of fineness of a measurement; it depends on the extent to which the instrument is calibrated e.g.,vs. 8.00 mvs. 8.00000 m

59 0.653 m When repeated, precise measurements yield similar answers each time. e.g., precise… imprecise… 0.652 m 0.654 m 0.7 m 0.8 m 0.6 m A good rule of thumb is… It is the % difference that is important.

60 accuracy:how close a measured value is to the true value Three types of error can affect accuracy. human error: method error: instrument error: -- minimize with repeated measurements e.g., parallax in measuring with a meter stick e.g., bathroom scale that always reads 5 lbs. too heavy mistake in reading instrument or recording results measuring device is improperly calibrated using measuring instrument improperly

61 Significant Figures A student is combining separate water samples, all of differing volumes, into one large bucket. Samples A, B and C are 25.5 mL, 16.37 mL and 51 mL, respectively. Once combined, what is the total volume of all the samples? 92.87 mL NO! Because the samples were each measured with a different level of precision, we must factor that into our calculations by identifying what are called significant figures. about…

62 Measurement and Precision The last digit of any measured number is assumed to be an estimate (uncertain) The second to last digit is assumed to be known with certainty A (25.5 mL)B (16.37 mL)C (51 mL) 26 25 16.4 16.3 60 50 (think dashes…)

63 Identifying Significant Figures Counting SF in a number Non-zero numbers: ALWAYS count as SF Zeroes Left: NEVER count as SF (0.000345) Middle: ALWAYS count as SF (5001) Right: sometimes… w/ decimal point: count as SF (25.10) w/o decimal point: DO NOT count as SF (8200) Exact Numbers: IGNORE SF (assumed to have an infinite number of SF) Counts (28 students in this class) Constants (1 mol = 6.022 x 10 23 ) Conversions (1 in = 2.54 cm) Relative to the non-zero numbers

65 Sig Figs with Calculations Note: For any calculations, always perform the entire calculation without rounding, and then round the final answer. Addition/Subtraction Round the answer to the LEAST number of decimal places found (least precise) 11.31 + 33.264 + 4.1 = 48.674 Multiplication/Division Round the answer to the smallest number of SF found 5.282 x 3.42 = 18.06444 → rounded to 48.7 → rounded to 18.1 (3.42 only has 3 SF)

66 Back to the original question… A student is combining separate water samples, all of differing volumes, into one large bucket. Samples A, B and C are 25.5 mL, 16.37 mL and 51 mL, respectively. Once combined, what is the total volume of all the samples? 25.5 mL + 16.37 mL + 51 mL = 92.87 mL 93 mL Could I write that as 93.0? NO!

90 Basic Concepts in Chemistry

91 chemical: any substance that takes part in, or occurs as a result of, a chemical reaction *All matter can be considered to be chemicals or mixtures of chemicals. chemical reaction: a rearrangement of atoms such that… “what you started with” differs from “what you end up with” products reactants

92 methane + oxygen  + H 2 O(g) carbon dioxide O 2 (g)CO 2 (g)CH 4 (g)+  water+ 22  Reactants Products

93 NaOH(aq) water Na(s)H 2 O(l)H 2 (g)2 sodium 22 hydrogen sodium hydroxide +  + +  +  Reactants Products

94 Law of Conservation of Mass: total mass of productsof reactants P mass = R mass = 2 Cu + H 2 O + CO 2 + O 2  CuCO 3 + Cu(OH) 2 Copper “patina” is a mixture of copper(II) carbonate and copper(II) hydroxide. It has a characteristic green color.
