Chem 111 1nd EditionExam # 1 Study Guide Lectures: 1 - 7Lecture 1 (January 14th)Intro to Chemistry:Key Terms:Science – Knowledge, specifically, knowledge that is acquired through experience or experimentation.Chemistry – The study of matter and it’s interactions with energy and other matter.Physical Properties: Can be measured without changing the composition of the sample.- Mass, density, color, melting point.Physical Change – A change that occurs without altering the composition of a material.- Freezing, meltingChemical Properties – Describe the reactivity of a material.- Natural gas burns in air; iron rusts.Chemical Change – At least part of the material is changed into a different kind of matter.- The digestion of sugar is an example.Substances – A material that is chemically the same throughout. Cannot be separated into component parts by physical methods.- There are two different types of substances. - Elements – cannot be broken into simpler substances.- Compounds – Can be broken down into elements. (by chemical methods)Mixture – Matter that can be separated into simpler materials by physical methods.- Heterogeneous mixture - composition of the mixture changes from one part to another.- Homogeneous mixture (or solution) – Composition of the mixture is uniform throughout- Alloy – A solution of a metal and another material (usually another metal)Lecture 2 (January 16 th )Accuracy - Agreement of a measurement with the true value.Precision – Agreement among repeated measurements of the same quantity.Significant Figures: The number of significant figures is the number of digits from the first non-zero digit through the last reported digit.- The uncertainty is at least +/- 1 unit in the last reported digit.- Zeros preceding the first non-zero digit are not significant.- A zero is only significant if preceded by a non-zero digit.Ex: How many significant figures are in each of the following?0.0012 (2)106 (3)900.0 (4)1.0012 (5)0.001060 (?

(2 in this case)2C5H10+15O2 ------------> 10CO2 + 10 H2OLecture 4 (January 23 rd )Neutralization: The reaction of an acid with a base to form a salt and water.Example of Neutralization:HCl + NaOH --------------> NaCl + HOH Acid Base Salt WaterRule: The number of hydrogen ions provided by the acid must equal the number of hydroxide ions provided by the base.Combustion Reactions: The process of burning. Any chemical reaction that includes burning is acombustion reaction. - Most of these are the combination of a substance and oxygen.- When hydrocarbon burns in oxygen, the carbon is converted to CO2 and the hydrogen forms water (H2O)(CH3)2O + O2 --------> C2H6OSalt: An ionic compound consisting of the cation of a base and an anion of an acidOxidation- The loss of electrons by a substance in a reaction.Oxidation-Reduction Reaction- A reaction in which electrons are transferred from one species to another.Oxidation Number- Can be assigned to each number depending on a set of rules… - An atom in its elemental state has oxidation number of 0.- The oxidation number of monoatomic ions is the charge of the ion.- The sum of the oxidation numbers in any species must equal the charge of the species.Reduction- The gain of electrons by a substance in a reaction.Oxidation States:Reactant --------> ProductNa=0 -------> Na+= +1 OxidationCl in Cl2 = 0 ------> Cl- = -1 ReductionConverting Moles to EntitiesMolar Mass: The molar mass (M) of any atom, molecule, or compound is the mass ingrams for exactly one mole of substance.Converting Moles and MassHow many moles of Ethylene, C2H4 are present in 16 g of that compound?About .57 moles Molar mass of C2H4 is about 28.Mass Percentage from FormulaSubscripts in formula x atomic mass / molar mass x 100Lecture 5 (February 4 th )Molecular Formula: The molecular formula must be a whole multiple of the empirical formula.- If the empirical formula is CH2, the molecular formula is (CH2)n wheren = molar mass of compound / molar mass of empirical formulaEx: A compound has the empirical formula
