1.1 What is chemistry?
• Chemistry is the study of the properties of matter and their changes.
• Matter: The physical material of the universe.– Anything that has mass and
– Occupies space (volume)
![Page 3: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Matter
• Matter: Anything that has mass and takes up volume
• Mass: the amount of material (stuff) in an object (kg, g, lb, t )
• Volume: the amount of space an object occupies (cm3, mL, L, ci)

Elements• Very basic elementary
substances.• Made of unique atoms.• Can not be broken down further
without changing the identity.• Named for Latin or Greek
characters or places.• Represented by 1 or 2 letter
symbols.– First letter CAPITALIZED– Second letter lower case
• C, O, Co• CO vs. Co
Hydrargyrum
Greek for “liquid silver”

Molecules
• Combinations of two or more atoms held together in specific shapes.
• Properties are based on the structure and arrangement , and the number and types of atoms present.
Methane
![Page 6: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Classifications of Matter
• How is matter classified? (2 ways)• 1. Macroscopic level (more than one
molecule)• a. Gas or vapor (g): no volume or shape,
highly compressible
• gases expands to occupy it’s container.
• b. Liquid (l): volume independent of container, no shape, incompressible (relatively)
• c. Solid (s): volume and shape independent of container, rigid, incompressible.
![Page 7: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
2. Molecular level (single molecules)
• a. gas: molecules far apart, high speed, collide often with each other, and container
walls. (kinetic molecular [KM] theory)
• b. liquid: molecules closer than gas, move rapidly, slide over each other
• c. solid: molecules packed closely, definite arrangement, don’t move.
![Page 8: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
States of matter (4)
• 1. Solids• Hold a particular
shape.• Have a definite
volume.• Particles arranged in
an orderly manner.• High density
![Page 9: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
States of Matter
• 2. Liquid• Does not hold its own
shape, takes the shape of its container.
• Has definite volume.• Particles arranged
randomly• High density• Not compressible
![Page 10: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
States of Matter
• 3. Gas• No definite shape or
volume.• Expands to occupy the
space of its container.• Extremely low density.• Particles far apart.• Highly compressible.• Density depends on
pressure.– High pressure forces
particles closer.

Definite Proportions • Aka the Law of
Constant Composition• Compounds always
contain the same elements in the same proportion by mass.
![Page 27: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Law of Definite Proportions
• H20 (by mass is always)
• 88.9% Oxygen, 11.1% Hydrogen
• If we had an 80g sample of H20 how much is O?
• .889 x 80 = 71g• How much is H?• .111 x 80 = 9g
![Page 28: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

1.4 Units of Measurement & the Metric System
A. Why Measure? In order to get complete observations, quantifying is essential.
![Page 37: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
B. Consists of:
1. Quantity
a. Anything that can be measured
b. Involves a number followed by a unit
c. Examples: Volume, Mass, Length, Time
2. Unit (can be English (customary) or metric)
a. Is what unit the quantity is measured in
b. Examples: Liter, Gallon, Gram, Foot, Meter, Second
C. Why Use the Metric System?
1. It’s easier because it is based on units of 10
2. Everyone uses it so it gives consistency
3. There are standards that everyone can compare to
![Page 38: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

Length and Mass
• SI unit of length is the meter (m) (ca. 39 inches)
• Mass: The measure of the amount of material (matter, stuff) in an object.
• SI base unit of mass is the kilogram (kg) (ca. 2.2 lbs)
• This is odd because it uses a prefix instead of gram alone.
![Page 41: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Temperature
• The measure of how fast molecules in a substance are moving.
» Or
• The measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance.
![Page 42: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Temperature scales• Fahrenheit• Named after Gabriel
Fahrenheit (1686-1736)• Thermometer maker who
devised his own temperature scale.
• Based on the temperature of an equal ice-salt mixture. (0ºF)
• Average temperature of a healthy horse. (100 º F)
• H2O freezes at: 32º F
• H20 boils at 212º F
Why me?
Say aaah.
![Page 43: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Temperature Scales
• Celsius (Centigrade)• Anders Celsius• Developed a
temperature scale more compatible with the metric system.
• Based on H20
– H2O freezes at: 0º C
– H20 boils at 100º C
(1701- 1744)
Thanks Mr. Celsius!!
![Page 44: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Fahrenheit vs Celsius
• Fahrenheit– 212º - 32º = 180º from
boiling to freezing.• Celsius
– 100º - 0º = 100º from boiling to freezing.
• 180/100 = 9/5• Celsius degrees are 9/5
bigger than Fahrenheit• The Fahrenheit scale also
begins 32º above the Celsius scale.
![Page 45: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Converting between Fahrenheit and Celsius
• Taking the degree size, and starting point in consideration, we get:
• ºF = 9/5ºC + 32 and/ or
• ºC = 5/9(ºF – 32) *watch order of ops*
![Page 46: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Conversion Practice
• The temperature of a healthy human is 98.6ºF. Convert this to Celsius.
• ºC = 5/9 (98.6ºF – 32)• 37ºC• A baby has a fever of 39.5ºC. What is her
temperature in Fahrenheit? • ºF = 9/5 x 39.5ºC + 32 • 103.1 ºF
![Page 47: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
The Kelvin Temperature Scale
• The SI unit used to measure temperature.
• Named for William Thomson, Lord Kelvin
• Not Melvin Kelvin• The º symbol is not
used for kelvin (K)• 1ºC = 1K
1824-1907
![Page 48: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
The Kelvin Temperature Scale(aka Absolute Scale)
• The zero point on the Kelvin scale is absolute zero
• 0K = -273ºC• Absolute zero is the
point at which all molecular motion ceases. Lowest temperature possible.
• Can absolute zero ever be reached?
![Page 49: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Converting between Celsius and Kelvin
• ºC = K – 273
• At 50K air will freeze to a solid. Convert this to ºC.
• ºC = 50 – 273 = -223 ºC
• K = ºC + 273
• Antifreeze (ethylene glycol) boils at 199ºC. Convert this to K.
• K = 199 + 273 = 472 K
![Page 50: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Comparing temperature scales
• Note that in ºC, and K, there are 100 degrees between the freezing and boiling points of H20.
• Note that in ºF there are 180º between the freezing and boiling points of H2O.
• The Celsius scale begins 273.15º higher than Kelvin.
• The Fahrenheit scale begins 32º higher than Celsius. Page 15
![Page 51: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Derived units/ Ratios
• Derived units are obtained by performing mathematical calculations on base units.
• Example: Speed = distance time
• What is the speed of a car (in mph) which travels 53miles in 48 minutes?– 53miles 60min = 66 miles/hour– 48min 1 hour
![Page 52: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Volume
• The most commonly used metric unit used to express volume is the Liter (L).
• The liter is not an SI unit.
• The SI unit of volume is the cubic meter(m3). Too big to be convenient.
![Page 53: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Other units of volume.
• Cubic centimeter (cc or cm3)• 1 cm3 = 1 mL• Cubic decimeter (dm3)• 1 dm3 = 1 L
![Page 54: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Density
• Ratio of mass to volume• Calculated by dividing the mass of an
object by its volume. • Density = mass
volume · Expressed in g/cm3
· Based on water.
· The density of pure H2O is 1.00 g/cm3
![Page 55: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Density

1.5 Uncertainty in Measurement
• Exact numbers: known by counting or definition. Whole numbers and integers.
• Inexact numbers: Derived from measurement. There is always estimation involved. The last digit is the uncertain digit.
![Page 59: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
I. 1.5 Uncertainty in Measurement
A. There is ambiguity in every measurement. Why?
1. Instruments are never completely free of flaws.
(More expensive instruments are generally more accurate)
2. Measuring involves estimation – because humans are reading, there may be human error!! Practice makes
perfecta. Digital Display – electronic balance
b. Scale Display – grad. cylinder, thermometer, ruler
* The last number in any measurement is estimated and therefore uncertain
% Error = [(Exp. Value – Accepted Value) / Accepted Value] x 100
* Note – the experimental value will be the average if more than one trial is performed for the experiment.
Scientific Method and Measurement
Lesson 2: Scientific Measurement
Accuracy is assessed by determining percent error

Precision: how reproducible the measurements are (how closely related the measurements are to each other)
Accuracy: how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value

Precise
Precise, not accurate
Accurate, not precise
Neither accurate nor
precise

A. Accuracy vs. Precision
• Accuracy - how close a measurement is to the accepted value
• Precision - how close a series of measurements are to each other
ACCURATE = CORRECT
PRECISE = CONSISTENT
![Page 62: Honors Chemistry Chapter 1 Matter and Measurement.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061616/56649d825503460f94a68497/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Significant Figures
• Used to indicate the exactness of a measurement.– 1cm vs. 1.0cm– 2.5s vs 2.52s
• The final digit represents the estimated digit.• If using for a derived unit, the measure is only
as accurate as the least accurate measurement.

b. All zeros between non-zero digits are significant. 101(3)
c. Zeros to the right of a non-zero digit, but left of the decimal point are not significant unless specifically designated with a bar above it. 1100 vs 1100d. Zeros to the right of the decimal point but to the left of a non-zero digit are not significant. .00038e. Zeros to the right of the decimal point and following a non-zero digit are significant. 3.0027
* There will never be a bar on the right side of the decimal!!
