change in kinetic energy of the molecules or temperature of the object).

 Latent Heat (L):

 Balancing is the process of designing a machine in which unbalance force is minimum.
 Machines and Engines have moving elements or parts. Some of them are rotating and some
of them are reciprocating. These parts should be balanced. If the parts in a machine are not
balanced, unbalanced forces setup in the machine and they increase the loads on machine
parts and also create stresses and vibrations in the machine parts.
 Balancing of Rotating Masses:
 When any the part is rotating, it produced centrifugal force. If this centrifugal force is
unbalanced then it bends the parts of the machine. To balance this unbalanced centrifugal
force, a mass is attached opposite side of the part to balance the centrifugal force.
 Balancing of Reciprocating Masses:
 There are various forces acting on the reciprocating parts of an engine. The resultant of all
the forces is known as unbalanced force or shaking force. If the resultant is zero, then there
is no unbalanced force. And if the resultant increased, then the unbalanced force will
increase.

 Work of compression – Three Methods: Compression of gas can be done in the following
methods:

Work of compression – Three Methods

58
 1. Isothermal compression ( 1-2'' ): PV = C
 If heat is added or taken away to maintain the gas at a constant temperature.
 In practice, no compressor is isothermal (𝜂𝐼𝑠𝑜 = 100%), because the temperature
of a gas rises when it is compressed.
 Isothermal compression is more efficient than adiabatic compression because no
energy goes to raise the temperature of the gas; all energy input goes to raise the
gas pressure.

2. Polytropic compression ( 1-2 ): PVn = C

 If gas is compressed, then cooled (in an intercooler), then compressed again.
 To make compression more efficient it needs to be as close as possible to
isothermal. In practice, this is achieved by cooling the compressed gas several
times during compression.
 It is less efficient than isothermal compression but more efficient than adiabatic.

3. Adiabatic compression ( 1-2' ): PVƳ = C

 If no heat is added or taken away during compression.
 In practice, no compressor is adiabatic, because some heat is always lost to
surroundings.
 It is used in a single stage of a centrifugal compressor to measure the
performance of machines.

 Various Terms & Efficiencies Used in Air-Compressor:

a) Free Air Delivery: (F.A.D.): It is the volume flow rate of compressor expressed in
m3/min as reduced to intake pressure and temperature.
b) Volumetric efficiency: It is the ratio of volume of free air delivered per the swept

volume. 𝜂𝑉𝑜𝑙 = =
Swept Volume 𝑉𝑠
c) Isothermal efficiency: It is the ratio of isothermal work to the actual indicated work.
Isothermal work
𝜂𝐼𝑠𝑜 = Actual indicated work , Actual indicated work: The area on P-V diagram.
e) Isentropic efficiency: It is the ratio of isentropic work of a compressor to the actual
work required by compression. This term is mostly used in refrigerant compressor.
Isentropic work
𝜂𝐼𝑠𝑒 =
Actual indicated work
d) Mechanical efficiency: It is the ratio of indicated power of compressor to the actual
shaft power of compressor. Shaft power of compressor means power required to be
given to its driving shaft.
Indicated power
𝜂𝑀𝑒𝑐ℎ =
Actual shaft power
e) Clearance ratio: It is the ratio of clearance volume to the total swept volume of an air
𝑉
compressor. It is denoted as K or C. 𝐾 = 𝑐
𝑉𝑠
f) Pressure ratio: It is the ratio of discharge pressure to suction pressure of a compressor

 Work of compression without clearance:

i. The area under the cycle diagram gives the net work done on the compressor.
ii. In case of an isothermal compression, i.e. compression without any rise in temperature,
compressor raises the pressure of air by decreasing of volume only, so work is least.
iii. In case of isentropic compression, compressor raises the pressure by decreasing of
volume of air and also due to rise in temperature thus more work is required.
59
 iv. If some cooling is done, temperature rise will be less and also pressure rise will also be
less thus lesser work will be required.

T-S diagram P-V diagram

 Work of compression with clearance:

Reciprocating compressor P-V diagram

Working

Compression (process 1-2): During this process, both suction and discharge valve remain
closed and compressor becomes a closed system. The piston moves inside the cylinder from
BDC to TDC, so pressure of air rises. The compression may happen theoretically as any of the
isentropic, isothermal or polytropic processes. In actual compressor it is always a polytropic
process and try to keep it as close to isothermal process as possible by external cooling. Piston
work is less in case of isothermal compression.

Compressed air discharge (process 2-3): When the pressure in the cylinder reaches to a
required value, discharge valve opens and compressor becomes an open system. Compressed
air is discharged to compressed air tank through the discharge valve. This process ends when
the piston reaches to the TDC.

Expansion of air in clearance volume (process 3-4): During this process, both suction and
discharge valve are closed and compressor becomes a closed system. The piston moves down
towards BDC and cylinder volume starts increasing. Due to increase in volume, pressure

60
 decreases, but some high pressure air remains in the clearance volume which could not be
discharged. This clearance volume expands air polytropically or isothermally or isentropically
doing some work on piston. When pressure becomes below the outside normal air pressure,
suction valve opens and expansion process ends. This process is reverse of compression
process 1-2. Due to this process the effective suction of air is reduced and volumetric efficiency
becomes less than 1.

Suction of air (process 4-1): After opening of suction valve, atmospheric air is absorbed in the
cylinder. In this process, compressor becomes an open system. At the end of this process, the
theoretical work by compressor during one cycle is given by area inside the cycle 1-2-3-4. In
this way, when the piston is reciprocated continuously in the cylinder by rotating the
crankshaft with the help of an electric motor, it completes one working cycle in two strokes of
piston or one revolution of crankshaft.

 Multistage Compression:

Multistage Compression P-V diagram

i. If the number of stages is increased, the compression process become nearly isothermal
and the compression work decreases.
ii. The pressure increased from P2 to P2' causes the volume reduces from (V1 – V4) to (V1 –
𝑃 𝑃2 ′
V4') with increased pressure ratio from ( 2 ) to ( ).
𝑃1 𝑃1
iii. Low Pressure Cylinder: LP cylinder compresses the air from suction pressure (P1) to
intermediate pressure (P2).
iv. High Pressure Cylinder: HP cylinder compresses the air from intermediate pressure (P2)
to discharge pressure (P2').
v. Advantages of multistage compression
1) (Save Power): The air can be cooled at intermediate pressure between the
stages of compression, thus decreasing the work required for next stage.
2) Multistage compressors have better mechanical balance. So lighter flywheel is
required.
3) The pressure and temperature range kept within desirable limits to improved
lubrication, Improved volumetric efficiency, and Reduced losses due to air
leakage.
vi. Disadvantages
1) The multistage compressor with intercoolers is more expensive than a single
stage.

 Comparison of various refrigeration methods

a) Vapor compression COP is quite high while for air refrigeration COP is generally less
than unity.
b) Refrigerant required is smaller in vapor compression system because the heat is
carried away by latent heat of vapor and so the amount of liquid refrigerant
circulated per ton is less. Also size of evaporator is small.
c) Operating cost of vapor compression system is very less compared to air
refrigeration system.

destructive interference. Amplitude of a minimum is A = A – A
min 1 2

73
 Sound waves:
 Sound waves (or audible waves) are mechanical waves which produce sense of hearing in the
human ear.
 Sound waves need medium to move (they cannot move in vacuum).
 Range of frequency of sound waves, for a normal person, is from 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
 A mechanical wave having frequency below the audible range (below 20 Hz) is called infrasound
or infrasonic wave. Example: Seismic waves.
 A mechanical wave having frequency above the audible range (above 20 kHz) is called
ultrasound or ultrasonic wave. Example: Waves produced by bats to catch insects, waves

 6.3 Reflection and Refraction of light

 Reflection of Light:
 If light is incident on a boundary separating two media, a part of the incident light goes back into
the first medium. This is called reflection of light.
 The angle (θ1) made by the incident ray with the normal is
called angle of incidence. Incident Reflected
ray ray
 The angle (θ1’) made by the reflected ray with the normal is
called angle of reflection.
 The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence θ1= θ1’
 Note: The normal is a line drawn perpendicular to the surface
at the point where the incident ray strikes the surface.

 Refraction of Light:
 When light travels from one transparent medium to another transparent medium, the speed of
light changes causing bending in the path of light at the boundary. This is called refraction of
light.
 The angle (θ1) made by the incident ray with the normal is called angle of incidence.
 The angle (θ2) made by the refracted ray with the normal is
called angle of refraction.
 The incident ray, the reflected ray, the refracted ray, and the
normal lie in the same plane.
 As light travels from one medium to another, its speed and
wavelength change but frequency does not change.
 The speed of light and the angle of refraction θ2 depends on the
properties of the medium.

 Refractive Index (or Index of Refraction)

 The ratio of the speed of light in vacuum to the speed of light in the given medium is called
refractive index of the medium.
speed of light in vacuum c
 Refractive Index, n 
speed of light in the medium v

 no unit of refractive index (n)

 For a vacuum, n = 1. For other media, n > 1
n1v1 = n2v2 also n11 = n22

Here, v1 = speed of light in medium1, v2 = speed of light in medium 2

 Snell’s Law of Refraction:

sin n
n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2 or sin2  n1  constant
1 2

Here, θ1 = angle made by the light ray

with the normal in medium 1,
θ2 = angle made by the light ray with the
normal in medium 2,
n1 = refractive index of medium1,
n2 = refractive index of medium 2.
75
  Example 1: A laser beam is incident at an angle of 30° to the vertical onto a solution of corn syrup
in water. If the beam is refracted to 19.24° to the vertical, (a) what is the refractive index of the
syrup solution? Suppose the light is red, with wavelength 632.8 nm in a vacuum. Find its (b)
wavelength, (c) frequency, and (d) speed in the solution.
Sol:
(a) Here, angle of incidence, θ1=30°, angle of refraction, θ2=19.24°, & refractive index of air, n1=1
 Using Snell’s Law, n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2, we get refractive index of the syrup solution as
sin1 sin 30
n2  n1  1  1.517 .
sin2 sin19.24

(b) Here,1=632.8 nm, n1 = 1, n2 = 1.517 ∵ n11 = n22 ⇒ 2  1 n1  632.8  1

 417.14 nm
n2 1.517

(c) For air, v = c = 3 X 10 m/s.  v = ƒ λ gives ƒ  v 
8 3  10
 4.741  1014 Hz.
 632.8  109

(d) Frequency of light does not change with medium.  Speed of light in the solution is
v  ƒ  4.741 1014  417.14  109  1.978  108 m / s.

 When the light goes from rarer medium to denser medium, the ray
bends toward the normal.
⇒ Angle of Refraction is less than Angle of Incidence, i.e. θ2 < θ1

 When the light goes from denser medium to rarer medium, the ray
bends away from the normal.
⇒ Angle of Refraction is greater than Angle of Incidence, i.e. θ2 > θ1

 Critical angle: It is the angle of incidence in denser medium for which

the angle of refraction is 90°.
n2
So, n1 sin θc = n2 sin 90 ⇒ sin C  for n1  n 2
n1

 Total Internal Reflection:

 If the angle of incidence in denser medium is greater than
the critical angle, then light is completely reflected into
the denser medium. This is called Total Internal Reflection.
 Total internal reflection can occur if light attempts to move
from a denser medium to a rarer medium.
 Ray 5 shows Total Internal Reflection

 Applications of Total Internal Reflection:

 Optical Fibre is a very thin plastic or glass rod which can carry light from one place to another
using the principle of total internal reflection.
 Uses of Optical Fiber:
1) Telecommunications
2) For the diagnosis and correction of medical problems.

 6.4 Ac Circuits

 A current whose magnitude and direction changes periodically with time is called alternating
current or AC.
 An AC circuit consists of AC generator (source) connected across a combination of circuit elements
(resistors, capacitors, inductors, etc.).
 The output of AC generator is given as: V = Vo sint
Here, ω = 2ƒ = angular frequency of AC, V = instantaneous voltage or voltage at time t,
Vo=maximum voltage or peak voltage or amplitude of voltage.
 Current is the simplest possible alternating current. It is given as: I = Io sint
Here, I = instantaneous current or current at time t,
Io = maximum current or peak current or amplitude of current.
 The average value of current and voltage over a complete cycle in an AC circuit is zero.

 Instead of average value we find root mean square (rms) value of AC current and voltage.
Vo
 rms Voltage: V rms = V o = 0.707 V o and rms Current: V rms = = 0.707 V o
2 2

 Usually, rms values are used when discussing AC currents and voltages.

 6.5 Kinetic Theory of Gases

 Properties of Ideal Gas:

1. The volume of a molecule of an ideal gas is zero.
2. Molecules move randomly in all possible directions inside the container.
3. There is no force between the molecules except during their collisions.
4. Molecules have only kinetic energy and do not have potential energy.
5. Ideal Gas cannot be liquefied.

 Avogadro’s Hypothesis:
 Equal volumes of gas at the same temperature and pressure contain same number of molecules.
 Example: If gas 1 and gas 2 are at same temperature T and same pressure P and if their volumes
are also equal then N1 = N2. Here N1 = number of molecules of gas 1 and N2 = number of
molecules of gas 2.
 The number of particles in a mole of a substance is called Avogadro’s Number (NA).
𝑵𝑨 = 𝟔. 𝟎𝟐 × 𝟏𝟎𝟐𝟑 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒊𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒔/𝒎𝒐𝒍
 Example: 12 g of carbon contains NA atoms.

 Ideal Gas Equation of State:

Here, Pi = initial pressure of the gas, Pf = final pressure, Vi = initial volume of the gas, Vf = final
volume, Ti = initial absolute temperature of the gas, and Tf = final absolute temperature.

 Example 3: A cylinder with a movable piston contains gas at a temperature of 27.0 °C, a volume
of 1.50 m3, and an absolute pressure of 0.200 × 105 Pa. What will be its final temperature if the
gas is compressed to 0.700 m3 and the absolute pressure increases to 0.800 × 105 Pa?

Sol: Here Ti = 27.0 °C = 27 + 273.15 = 300.15 K, Vi = 1.50 m3, Pi = 0.200 × 105 Pa, Vf = 0.700 m3,

 Main Assumptions of Kinetic Theory of Gases:
1. The number of molecules in a gas is very large.
2. All the molecules of a gas are identical.
3. Gas molecules have only KE and do not have any PE.
4. Gas molecules move randomly in all possible directions.
5. Gas molecules obey Newton’s laws of motion.
6. Gas molecules interact only by short-range forces during elastic collisions.
7. Gas molecules make elastic collisions among themselves and with the walls of the container.
8. The average separation between the molecules is large compared to their size.

 Using Kinetic Theory of Gases we get:

 Pressure of an ideal gas: 𝑷 = 𝟐 ( 𝑽 ) (𝟐 𝒎𝒗 ̅̅̅̅𝒎𝒐𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒆

Pressure of an ideal gas can be increased by:

1. Increasing the number of molecules per unit volume in the container.
2. Increasing the average KE of the molecules (by increasing the temperature of the gas).

𝟑 𝒌𝑩 𝑻 𝟑𝑹𝑻
 Root-Mean-Square (rms) speed of the gas molecules: 𝒗𝒓𝒎𝒔 = √ =√
𝒎 𝑴

 At a given temperature, on an average, lighter molecules move faster, than heavier ones.

 Example: A sealed cubical container 20.0 cm on a side contains three times Avogadro’s number
of molecules at a temperature of 20.0°C. Find force exerted by gas on one of the walls of
container.
Sol: Here, number of molecules in the gas, N= 3NA  n  N = 3.

Volume of gas, V = volume of cubical container = l3 = (0.2)3 m3.

From ideal gas law, PV = nRT  P    9.13 105 Pa

But, pressure, P = force/area. Here, area of a wall A = l2 = (0.2)2 m3.
 P = F/A  F = PA = 9.13 X 105 X (0.2)2 = 3.65 X 104 N.

 Internal Energy (U):

 Internal energy of a gas is the sum of KE and PE
of all the molecules (or atoms) of the gas.
 Internal energy of a monatomic gas is only due to
translational KE of its molecules,
 U of a polyatomic gas is due to translational KE,
rotational KE, & vibrational KE of its molecules.

 6.6 Modern physics

 Main Features of Modern Physics:

 Matter and energy are inter-convertible which is described by Einstein’ mass-energy relation
E = mc2.
 Matter and energy have dual nature: 1. wave nature
2. particle nature.
 Particle nature is described by quantities like mass (m) and momentum (p).
 Wave nature is described by quantities like frequency (f) and wavelength ().
 Usually we observe the particle nature of matter (e.g.: ball, atom, electron, etc.) and wave
nature of energy (e.g.: X-rays, light, radio-waves, etc.).
 Waves related to matter are called Matter waves.
 Particles related to energy are called Photons.
 The energy, linear momentum, angular momentum, charge, etc. of molecules, atoms, protons,
neutrons, and electrons are quantized.
 Values of velocity, distance, time, etc. depend on the relative motion of the object and
observer.

 Plank’s Hypothesis:
 Atoms emit and absorb energy in the form of particles, called photons.
 An atom can emit or absorb only one photon at a time.
 Energy of a photon is E = hf.
Here h is Plank’s constant (h=6.62 X 10–34 J.s) & f is frequency of the wave that carries this
energy.

 de-Broglie Hypothesis:
 Matter has dual nature; sometimes it behaves like particle and sometimes like waves.
 De-Broglie wavelength is given as:  = h/p.
 It is the wavelength of the matter waves for a particle having linear momentum p.

 Lasers: It is an acronym of Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.

 Main conditions for laser action:

1. The excited state of the system must be a metastable state (its lifetime must be longer
than the lifetime of a normal excited state).
2. System must be in a state of population inversion (more atoms in an excited state than
in the ground state).
3. The emitted photons must be confined in the system long enough to allow them to
stimulate further emission from other excited atoms. This is achieved by using reflecting
mirrors as shown in the figure.
82
  Properties of Laser Light:
1. It is highly monochromatic.
2. It is highly intense.
3. It is highly directional.
4. It is highly coherent.

 Photoelectric Effect:
1. When light of suitable frequency falls on a metallic
surface, electrons are emitted from the surface.
This is called the photoelectric effect.
2. The emitted electrons are called photoelectrons.
3. The kinetic energy of photoelectrons increases
with the frequency of the light.
4. The number of photoelectrons increases with the
intensity of the light.
5. Photoelectric effect shows particle nature of light.

 X-Rays:
1. X-rays are electromagnetic radiations with very short
wavelengths (about 0.1 nm).
2. In an X-ray tube, electrons are emitted by heating a
filament.
3. These electrons are accelerated toward a dense metal
target that is held at a very high potential than the
filament.
4. X-rays are produced when very high-speed electrons
are retarded or stopped suddenly by a suitable target.
5. The high-speed electrons go deep into the atoms of the target and interact with their inner
electrons and nucleus.
6. X-rays can pass through dense objects like animal tissues, wood, plastics, thin metal sheets, etc.
7. X-rays show that the energy of electrons is quantized in an atom.

 7.1 Chemical Formulae and Equations

 Chemistry is the science that studies the matter and its properties and changes.
 Matter is anything that has a mass and occupies a space.

 Isotope notation:
 Every element in the periodic table is shortly represented
called as chemical symbol.
 Mass number = A; Atomic number = Z; Element symbol = X
 The isotopes of an element include all of those with the same
number of protons or atomic number but with different mass
numbers which is a change in the number of neutrons.
 E.g. 126C 136C 146C (Isotopes of the chemical element carbon)
 E.g. 126C : Atomic number Z = 6 = number of electrons = number of protons
No of electrons e- = 6 , No of protons p = 6

 The Periodic Table:

 Classification of Matter:

85
 Atoms and ions
 Atoms are electrically neutral, because the number of protons and electrons are same.
a) The atom consists of a very small central nucleus.
1) Electron e- (have negative charge)
2) Protons p (have positive charge)
3) Neutrons n (no charge)

b) Arrangement or configurations of Electrons:

1) The electrons around an atom are defined “shell”
2) Shell can contain a maximum number of electrons.
3) Shell with the lowest energy fills first.
4) The maximum number of electrons in each shell
can be given by the formula: 2n2 (n= Shell number).
5) E.g. Maximum number of electrons in shell 1 is 2
and in shell 2 is 8 etc.
6) E.g. the electronic configurations and the electronic
structure for Sodium.
Sodium: 𝟐𝟑 -

 An ion is an atom, or group of atoms, that has a net positive or negative charge.
E.g.: Ca+ ; 11 protons, 10 (11 - 1) electrons. Cl- ; 17 protons, 18 (17 + 1) electrons.
 Anion – ion with a negative charge – if a neutral atom gains one or more electrons it becomes
an anion. E.g.; Nonmetals.
𝟖 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬 +𝟐𝐞 𝟖 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝟏𝟕 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬 +𝟏𝐞 𝟏𝟕 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬
𝐎 𝟖 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬⇒ 𝐎−𝟐 𝟏𝟎 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐂𝐥 𝟏𝟕 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬⇒ 𝐂𝐥− 𝟏𝟖 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬
Has gained one electron Has gained two electrons

 Cation – ion with a positive charge – if a neutral atom loses one or more electrons it becomes
a cation. E.g.; Metals.
𝟏𝟏 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬 −𝟏𝐞 𝟏𝟏 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝟐𝟎 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬 −𝟐𝐞 𝟐𝟎 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐬
𝐍𝐚 𝟏𝟏 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬 ⇒ 𝐍𝐚+ 𝟏𝟎 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐂𝐚 𝟐𝟎 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬 ⇒ 𝐂𝐚+𝟐 𝟏𝟖 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐬
Has lost one electron Has lost two electrons

 Rules for writing Formula:

 Binary Ionic Compounds (type I) :
1) Every binary compound has 2 parts, First part is positive (Cation) and the second is
negative (anion).E.g: Aluminium oxides (Al2O3); Aluminium (Al+3) is positive & Oxygen (O-2)
is negative
2) The second part generally ends with "ide" (For single element only) or "ite and ate" (For
element in combination with Oxygen). E.g.: Chloride (Cl-), Oxide (O-2), Nitride (N-3),
Sulphide (S-2) and Sulphite (SO3)-2, Nitrite (NO2)-, Sulphate (SO4)-2, Nitrate (NO3)-,
Phosphate (PO4)-3 .
3) Firstly write the chemical symbol for the first part (include charge as superscript) followed
by the chemical symbol for the last part (include charge as superscript). E.g. Aluminium
oxides Al+3 and O-2 .
4) Criss-Cross the valences (only the numbers) to obtain the subscripts. Example: 𝐴𝑙2+3 𝑂3−2
Note: Only the numbers are criss-crossed, not the charges.
86
 5) The total positive valence + the total negative valence must equal to zero (an overall
charge of 0) Example: for water (H2O); (2 times +1) + (1 times –2) = 0
6) Use the lowest possible ratio of subscripts (similar to reducing fractions). E.g. 𝐶𝑎1+2 𝑂1−2
has subscripts of “1” and “1” NOT “2” and “2” .
7) Enclose all polyatomic ions in parentheses (leave the valence outside the parentheses).
(Do not use parentheses for monatomic ions). E.g. (𝑁𝐻4 )+1
2 𝑆1

 Binary Ionic compounds (Type II):
1) They contain a transition metal ( except Zn+2, Ag+ and Cd+2 ) that can form more than one
type of cation charge and form more than one type of ionic compound.
2) The cation is mentioned first then anion as in case of binary ionic compounds type I .
3) The charge on cation must be determined by balancing the positive and negative charges
of the compound. E.g. Co+2 Br - ; CoBr2 ; (1 times +2) + (2 times –1) = 0

 Note that mercury (I) ions always occurs bound together to form Hg2+2 ions. Although
these are transition metals, they form only one type of ion, and a Roman numeral is not
used.

 Compounds with Polyatomic Ions:

1) Polyatomic ions are groups of atoms that stay together and have a charge.
2) The cation is listed first and the anion second.
3) The polyatomic ion names must be memorized.
4) No extra suffixes are added.

 Binary Covalent Compounds (Type III):

1) Binary compound has 2 parts, First part is cation and the second is anion.
2) Covalent means Nonmetals are present.
3) Prefixes are used to denote the number of atoms present in cation and anion.
4) The prefix mono is never for naming the first element. E.g. CO2
5) Drop the final o or a of the prefix when the element begins with a vowel. E.g. N2O4

  Acids
1) Acids are substances that dissociate in water to produce hydrogen ions, H+ (H3O+).
E.g. HCl + H2O → H3O+ + Cl-
2) If the anion doesn't contain oxygen, the acid is named as hydro + (anion root + ic) + acid.
E.g. HCl ( hydrochloric acid ).
3) If the anion contains oxygen and the anion name ends with –ate, the acid is named as
(anion root + ic) + acid. E.g. HNO3 "Nitrate anion" (Nitric acid), H2CO3 "Carbonate anion"
(Carbonic acid), H2SO4 "Sulfate anion" (Sulfuric acid), H2PO4 "Phosphate anion"
(Phosphoric acid).
4) If the anion contains oxygen and the anion name ends with –ite, the acid is named as
(anion root + ous) + acid. E.g. HNO2 "Nitrite anion" (Nitrous acid), H3PO3 "Phosphite
anion" (Phosphorous acid).

Naming of Acids

 Chemical reaction:
a) A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances are changed into one or
more new substances.
b) All chemical reactions have two parts: Reactants (the substances you start with) and Products
(the substances you end up with). E.g. Carbon and oxygen reacts to produce carbon dioxide;
Carbon + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide
89
c) Types of chemical reactions:
Reaction type Explanation General formula
Two or more compounds combine to form
Combination A + B → AB
one compound.
The opposite of a combination reaction – a
Decomposition complex molecule breaks down to make AB → A+ B
simpler ones.
Two solutions of soluble salts are mixed, A + soluble salt B →
Precipitation resulting in an insoluble solid (precipitate) precipitate + soluble salt C
forming.
An acid and a base reaction with each other.
Neutralization Generally, the product of this reaction is a Acid + salt → salt + water
salt and water.
Oxygen combines with a compound to form
Combustion carbon dioxide and water. These reactions A + O2 → H2O + CO2
are exothermic, meaning they give off heat.
One element trades places with another
Displacement A + BC → AC + B
element in the compound.

 Chemical equation:
a) Chemical equation is the symbolic representation of a chemical reaction.
E.g. Copper reacts with chlorine to form copper (II) chloride; Cu(s) + Cl2(g) → CuCl2(s)
b) Reactants and products may be Solids (s), Liquids (𝜄), Gases (g), Solutions (aq).
c) The symbols used to indicate the state of the solids, liquids, gases or solutions are
called State Symbols. E.g. C(s) + O2 (g) → CO2(g)
 Balanced Chemical Equations:
a) When the numbers of different atoms are the same on both sides, an equation is
said to be balanced. E.g. 2H2 (g) +O2 (g) → 2H2O (l)
b) An equation which is not balanced is not correct.
c) How to write balanced Chemical Equations:
1) Write the equation in words.
E.g. Calcium burns in chlorine to form a solid calcium chloride.
2) Write the equation using symbols and formula.
Calcium + Chlorine → Calcium Chloride; Ca + Cl2 → CaCl2
3) Make sure all the formulae are correct.
4) Check that the equation is balanced for each type of atom.
Left side (Ca: 1 Cl: 2), Right side (Ca: 1 Cl: 2), so the equation is balanced.
5) Make sure you do not change any formula.
6) Add the state symbols.
Ca (s) +Cl2 (g ) → CaCl2(s)

d) Rules for balancing chemical equations:

1) Write the correct formulas for all the reactants and products.
2) Count the number of atoms of each type on both sides.
3) Check to make sure it is balanced.

90
 4) Change the numbers in front of the formulas to make the number of
atoms of each element the same on both sides of the equation.
5) 6. Do not change the subscripts.
Example 1:
Ethane + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Steam
C2H6 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
Step 1: Balance C atom, put 2 before CO2
C2H6 + O2 → 2CO2 + H2O
Step 2: Balance H atom, put 3 before H2O
C2H6 + O2 → 2CO2 + 3 H2O
Step 3: Balance O atom, put 7/2 before O2
C2H6 + 7/2 O2 → 2CO2 + 3 H2O
Step 4: Multiply the whole equation by 2 we get the balanced equation is
2 C2H6 + 7 O2 → 4 CO2 + 6 H2O

 Mole Concept:
 It is a unit for substance. It is the amount of substance containing the same number of particles
(atoms, molecules or ions), as there are atoms in exactly 12.00 grams of C-12

 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02x1023 particles.

a) 1 mole = NA = 6.02 x 1023 , Avogadro’s number (NA).
b) N = n x NA , N = number of particles (atoms), n = number of moles, NA = Avogadro’s constant
c) E.g 1: 1 mole of hydrogen atoms has a mass of 1 gram and contains 6 X 1023 atoms or
molecules.
E.g 2: 2 moles of oxygen atoms have a mass of 32 grams and contain 12 X 1023 atoms or
molecules.

 Atomic mass is the mass of an atom in atomic mass units (amu). E.g. 1H = 1.008 amu
𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 (𝒎)
a) Relative Atomic Mass (𝐑𝐀𝐌) = 𝐍𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐬 (𝐧)
g/mole or amu

b) Actual masses of atoms are very small. E.g. hydrogen actual mass is 1.66 X 10-24 g, but the
relative atomic mass (RAM) is 1.008 amu.
c) Relative molecular mass (RMM) is the sum of relative atomic masses (RAM) of the atoms.
𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 (𝐦)
d) 𝐑𝐌𝐌 = 𝐍𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐬 (𝐧)
g/mole or amu

E.g. RMM of SO2: 1S=32.07 amu, 2O=2*16=32 amu, RMM of SO2=64.07 amu.

 Molar Volume:
a) Volume occupied by 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure (s.t.p) is always
the same and equals to 22.4 dm3.
b) Molar Volume = 22.4 dm3/ mole
c) E.g. the amount of moles presents in the volumes 12.4 dm3 of helium gas at s.t.p.
1 mol → 22.4 dm3 Moles of Helium = (12.4dm3x1 mol) / 22.4 dm3
x mol of He → 12.4 dm3 = 0.554 mol

91
 Concentration:
 The concentration of a solution is the amount of solute present in a given quantity of solvent or
solution.
 A solution is a homogenous mixture of 2 or more substances (Solvent + Solute).
 A solute is the substance that dissolved into a solvent and it presents in the smaller amount.
 A solvent is the substance that dissolved the solute substance and it presents in the larger
amount.
 E.g. Solvent (N2) + Solute (O2 , Ar , CO2) → Solution (Air(g))
Solvent (H2O) + Solute (CO2 , Sugar) → Solution (Soft drink(l))

 Types of Solutions:
Component 1 Component 2 State of Resulting Solution Examples
Gas Gas Gas Air
Gas Liquid Liquid Soda water (CO2 in water )
Gas Solid Solid H2 gas in palladium
Liquid Liquid Liquid Ethanol in water
Solid Liquid Liquid NaCl (salt) in water
Solid Solid Solid Brass (Cu/Zn), Solder (Sn/Pb)

 Methods express the concentration:

1) Molarity:
a) It is the number of moles of solutes dissolved in one liter of solution.
b) Symbol used for molarity is M.
𝑁𝑜 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠 (𝑚𝑜𝑙) 𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑒 𝑛
c) Molarity (M) = = = 𝑚𝑜𝑙/𝑑𝑚3
𝑉𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑚𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 (𝑑𝑚3 ) 𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑉
E.g.1 What is the concentration of a solution which is made by dissolving 0.5 mole
of NaOH in 200cm3 of solution?
No of moles of NaOH n =0.5 mole
Volume of solution (V) = 200cm3
1 dm3 = 1000 cm3
200cm3 = 200/ 1000 = 0.2 dm3
Now apply the formula for concentration
𝑴 = 𝒏/𝑽
M =0.50 mole/0.20 dm3= 2.5M

E.g.2 Calculate the concentration of 6.3g of silver nitrate (AgNO3) in 0.05 dm3 water.
First find the no of moles of AgNO3
𝒏 = 𝒎/𝑹𝑴𝑴
RMM = 107.9 +14+ 3x 16 = 170 g/mol
= 6.3g/(170 g/ mol) =0.037 mol
Now apply the formula for concentration
𝑴 = 𝒏/𝑽
=0.037 mol/0.5 dm 3 =0.07 mol /dm3
=0.07M

92
 d) Molar solution is that solution which contains 1 mole of solute dissolved in 1 dm3
or 1 liter of solvent.
e) Dilution is making a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated solution
by Adding Solvent.

2) Molality:
a) It is the number of moles of solutes dissolved in one Kg of solvent.
b) Symbol used for molality is m
𝑁𝑜 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠 (𝑚𝑜𝑙) 𝑛
c) Molality (m) = 𝑀𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑠𝑜𝑙𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑡 (𝐾𝑔)
= 𝑚 𝑚𝑜𝑙/𝐾𝑔
E.g. calculate the molality of a solution containing 37.0g of HCl in 63g H2O.
No of moles of HCl (n)=37.0g /36.46=1.01 mol
Mass of solvent (kg) (m)= 63g/1000=0.063 kg
𝒎 = 𝒏/𝒎(𝑲𝒈)
m=1.01 mol/0.063 kg=16 mol/ kg
d) Molal solution is that solution which contains 1 mole of solute dissolved in 1 Kg of
solvent.

 Solubility:
 It is the property of a solute to dissolve in a given amount
of solvent to form a solution at a specified temperature.
 Solubility value is different for different temperatures.
 The solubility of a substance depends on the solvent,
temperature and pressure.

 Types of solutions:
1) Saturated: The solvent is holding maximum amount
of solute as it can at a given temperature.
2) Unsaturated: The solution is holding less than
maximum amount of solute at a certain temperature
3) Supersaturated: The solution is holding more than
maximum amount of solute a certain temperature.

 Effect of Temperature on solubility:

a) Usually solubility of solid increases with increase in temperature.
b) Solubility of the gases decreases with increase in temperature.
