CH.1 - CHEMICAL TOOLS - EXPERIMENTATION AND MEASUREMENT

CONCEPT: MATTER

Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes it undergoes, with the _________________ being its basic functional unit. When two or more of these elements chemically bond together they form an independent structure called a molecule.

Classification of Matter

Under appropriate conditions of pressure and temperature, most substances can exist in 3 states of matter:

• _______________, _______________ and ________________.

• _______________ have a fixed shape and volume.

• ______________ take up the shape and volume of a container.

• _______________ conform to the shape of a container, but not the volume.

__________________ __________________ __________________

portion of its container it occupies,

but not the __________ .

___________________ compressible

CONCEPT: SCIENTIFIC NOTATION

We use scientific notation to turn small or large, inconvenient numbers into manageable ones.

6.88 x 10-12

The first number 6.88 is called the __________________________.

It must be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10.

The second number is known as the ______________________.

It must always be 10 in scientific notation.

In the number 6.88 x 10-12, the number -12 is referred to as the ____________________.

EXAMPLE 1: Convert the following numbers into scientific notation

a. 377,000 b. 0.000101

c. 707.82 d. 161.00 x 107

e. 0.0628 x 10-9



CONCEPT: ERROR

Even though we try to be as accurate as possible, there is always some level of uncertainty called ____________________.

When we investigate the quality of an experimental decision or calculation we take into account two major principles:

• __________________ deals with the reproducibility of our calculations.

• __________________ deals with how close our measured calculation is to the “actual” value.

EXAMPLE 1: Which of the 4 following images is not precise and not accurate?

PRACTICE: A student must measure the weight of a sodium bicarbonate compound, NaHCO3, and obtains the following measurements: 23.12 g, 23.08 g and 23.17g. If the true weight of the compound is 18.01 g what can be said about the student’s results?

a. They are accurate and precise. b. They are accurate, but not precise. c. They are neither accurate or precise. d. They are not accurate, but precise.



CONCEPT: EVALUATING YOUR MEAN VALUE

The ____________________________ measures how close data results are in relation to the mean, or average, value.

• To check if the results are close to the “true” value we can merely look, but sometimes determining their accuracy may require more work.

Σ(x1 − x )2

CONCEPT: SIGNIFICANT FIGURES Significant figures are necessary to communicate the level of accuracy with which values are recorded. It can be easy if you remember these 2 rules.

1. If your number has a decimal point move from ______________________________. o Start counting once you get to your first non-zero number and keep counting until you get to the end.

2. If your number has NO decimal point move from ______________________________.

o Start counting once you get to your first non-zero number and keep counting until you get to the end.

EXAMPLE 1: How many sig figs does each number contain?

(1) 0.0000185 m (2) 749 mol (3) 17.3 x 103 mL (4) 100. min (5) 0.0010050 kg (6) 1560 mol

EXAMPLE 2: Read the length of the metal bar to the correct number of significant figures.

a) 15 cm b) 15.000 cm c) 20 cm d) 15.0 cm e) 15.00 cm



CONCEPT: CALCULATIONS & SIGNIFICANT FIGURES

• Multiplication/Division: Measurement with least _______________________________ determines final answer.

• Addition/Subtraction: Measurement with least _______________________________ determines final answer. EXAMPLE 1: Perform the following calculation to the right number of sig figs:

(3.16) x (0.003027) x (5.7 x 10-3) EXAMPLE 2: Perform the following calculation to the right number of sig figs:

2.628 x 106

6.281 x 104

+ 0.827 x 107

EXAMPLE 3: Perform the following calculation to the right number of sig figs:

(42.00 – 40.915) • (25.739 – 25.729) (11.50 • 1.001) + (0.00710 • 700.)



CONCEPT: TEMPERATURE

Temperature is a measure of thermal energy in a substance, which is __________________ on the amount of matter.

• This is an example of ___________________ property.

• _________________ , _________________ , ______________ , ________________ , ______________ .

Heat is a form of thermal energy, which is __________________ on the amount of matter.

• This is an example of ___________________ property.

• _________________ , _________________ , ______________ .

EXAMPLE 1: Which of the following has the greatest amount of heat?

30 g H2O at 50oC 300 g H2O at 50oC 30 g H2O at 100oC Temperature Conversions

Temperature conversions are easy, as long as you know how to solve for x.

• You only need to know 2 equations to convert from the 3 different units of temperature:

K = 273.15 + oC

oF = 1.8 (oC) + 32

EXAMPLE 2: Convert the following units of temperature

a. -115°C into Fahrenheit b. 73.23 K into Fahrenheit



CONCEPT: MIXTURES

Most matter consists of mixtures of pure substances.

• __________________________ mixtures have no distinguishable parts.

• _____________________________ mixtures have some distinguishable parts.

Changes of Matter

• ______________________ changes are changes in the form of the substance, but not in its chemical composition.

• ______________________ changes create new substances with different properties and different chemical

compositions.

EXAMPLE 1: Which of the following represents a physical change?

a. Alkanes burn spontaneously.

b. The sublimation of CO2.

c. 2 H2 (g) + O2 (g) 2H2O (g)

d. The rusting of a car.

We use density to understand the relationship between ______________ and ______________.

• We can use it within dimensional analysis to go from one unit to the other or vice versa.

Density =
