Matter
Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass.

A mixture is a
combination of two or A substance is a form of
more substances in Pure matter that has a definite

The composition is A substance that

*Compounds can be separated only by chemical means into their pure 5
components
*The first letter of a symbol is always capitalized, but any following letters are
not. For example, Co is the symbol for the element cobalt, whereas CO is the formula
for the carbon monoxide molecule 6
Physical and chemical changes of matter
• A physical property can be measured and observed without changing
the composition or identity of a substance

• “Hydrogen gas burns in oxygen gas to form water” describes a chemical property
of hydrogen, because to observe this property we must carry out a chemical
change, in this case burning

Temperature scales
Three temperature scales are currently in use:

• °C (degrees Celsius) • °F (degrees Fahrenheit)

• K (kelvin)

12
Accuracy and Precision
• Accuracy tells us how close a measurement is to the true value of the
quantity that was measured

• Precision refers to how closely two or more measurements of the same


quantity agree with one another

The distribution of darts on a dart board shows the difference between precise and
accurate.

(a) Good accuracy and good precision (c) Poor accuracy and poor precision

(b) Poor accuracy and good precision.

Atomic structure
• Atom
• Short term atomic arrangements (amorphous
materials)
• Long term atomic arrangements (crystalline
materials)
• Nanostructure
• Microstructure
• Macrostructure
Atomic Structure

• Structure of atom
• Quantum numbers
• Periodic table
• Bonding
Atomic number, Mass number and Isotopes
• The atomic number (Z) is the number of protons in the nucleus of each atom
of an element.
• The mass number (A) is the total number of neutrons and protons present in
thenucleus of an atom of an element
• Isotopes, atoms that have the same atomic number but different mass
numbers.

Molecules and Ions


A molecule is an aggregate of at least two atoms in a definite arrangement held
together by chemical forces (also called chemical bonds ).
Diatomic molecules Contains only two atoms (N 2, O2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2, HCl
and CO)
Polyatomic molecules Molecules containing more than two atoms(ozone,
water (H2O) and ammonia (NH3)
An ion is an atom or a group of atoms that has a net positive or negative charge.
Monatomic ions contain only one atom (Mg2+, Fe3+, S2-, and N3- , Na1+ and Cl-)
Polyatomic ions ions containing more than one atom (OH-, CN- and NH+4)

16
Chemical Formulas
Chemical formulas are used to express the composition of molecules and ionic
compounds in terms of chemical symbols.
A molecular formula shows the exact number of atoms of each element in the
smallest unit of a substance.
