Mid-Summer Exam Review Of Chemistry
Mid-YEAR EXAMINATION REVIEW PACKAGE

* Everything around us is considered matter. Everything with a mass and a volume is considered matter. * All matter is made of small invisible particles called atoms. * There are 92 different types of atoms in the universe. * Substances that are made up of one type of atom are called pure elements; therefore there are 92 pure elements in the universe. * Substances made up of more than one type of atom are called mixtures. * Mixtures are made up of groups of atoms called molecules. * Molecules that are made of one type of atom are called simple molecules. Examples: O3 , N2 , S8 * Molecules that are made of more than one type of atom are called compound molecules.

Decomposition
3) Phase changes: 3. Synthesis a) Solidification: From Liquid phase to Solid phase 4. Precipitate b) Fusion: From Solid phase to Liquid phase c) Condensation: From Gas phase to Liquid phase d) Evaporation: From Liquid phase to Gas phase e) Deposition: From Gas phase to Solid phase f) Sublimation: From Solid phase to Gas phase

Example: Freezing water will change its phase from liquid to solid. The particles will slide over each other until the temperature gets cold enough so that they slow down. As ice forms, each particle will keep its spot and strongly bond with neighboring particles as in solids. Ice is considered a solid. Ice and water have different densities; however, the particles in the ice have not changed chemically. Therefore solidification is a physical change.
There are four clues to help us identify whether a change occurred to a substance is chemical. Those are:
a) Release of gas. (Ex: bubbles forming)
b) Release of heat or light (Ex: explosion)
c) Creation of a precipitate (Ex: Residue being formed, digestion, exhaust)
d) A color change (Ex: Rust)

What is its density?
O= m/v=1kg/1L =1kg/per L =1000g/L

1) M=17g, v=10mL D =? 17kg/10mL =1.7g/mL 2) M=2g, v=12mL D =? 2g/12mL =0.167g/mL 3) M=7g, v=21mL D =? 7g/21Ml =0.3g/mL

Object 1) 2g/mL M=11g V=? 11g/26 per mL=5.5mL
Object 2) 0.8g/mL M=16g V=? 16g/0.8g per mL=20mL
Object 3) 3.5g/mL M=7g V=? 7g/3.5g per mL=2mL

Atoms

Components of atoms:

- Electrons (-)
Nucleus
* Neutrons (neutral) * Protons (+)

H (1): 1 electron, 1 proton, 1 neutron
Ca (20): 20 electrons, 20 protons, 20 neutrons
All atoms are the same size, but have a different amount of electrons, protons ad electrons depending on the rank it has in the Periodic Table of Elements.

    Is this a chemical change or a physical change? Using vinegar to take off crusty scales is an example of a chemical change. This is because when using vinegar a new substance is formed. In this case the new substance is a gas. Another reason why we know that it is a chemical change is because bubbles are noticed This immediately tells us that it is a chemical change and not physical.…

    BIOLOGY STUDY GUIDE CHAPTER 4– THE CHEMICAL BASIS OF LIFE Matter = anything that takes up space and has mass (major types of matter = solid, liquid, and gas) Any type of matter is made of one or more elements. o Element = a substance that cannot be broken down into other substances by regular chemical processes. (examples: gold, silver, mercury, etc.) There are approximately 25 elements necessary for life. • Examples: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, phosphorous, etc. • Trace elements = those elements that make up less than 0.01 percent of your body mass (examples: iodine, iron, copper, etc.) Compounds = a substance containing two or more elements; these elements are always present in this compound in the same ratio o For instance, water is a compound where hydrogen and oxygen are combined. The ratio of hydrogen to oxygen in water is always 2:1. (Remember that the chemical formula of water is H2O.) o Compounds have different characteristics than the elements that make them up. (Water is liquid at room temperature, but when hydrogen and oxygen are by themselves, they are gases at room temperature.) Atoms = smallest possible piece of an element o A better definition of an atom may be: the most basic unit of matter that cannot be broken down into smaller pieces by ordinary chemical methods. o This can be confusing, because when you read the above definition or when you start looking at the periodic table in class, is oxygen an atom or an element? o An element is essentially the same as an atom. Why do we bother with two different words? • An element is the most common version of an atom. The element you see on the periodic table for oxygen is the most common version of the oxygen atom that exists in nature. There are several different kinds of oxygen atoms (with different numbers of neutrons than the one found on the table), but they are not as commonly found in nature. All atoms are made of even smaller…
