The Study of Chemistry
Macroscopic
Microscopic
4
Qualitative data consists of general
observations about the system
The coffee is hot
The boy is tall
Quantitative data comprises numbers
obtained by various measurements of the
system.
The coffee is heated to 97°C
John is 5 ft 6 in tall
5
The scientific method is a systematic
approach to research
A hypothesis is a tentative explanation for a
set of observations
tested
modified
6
A law is a concise statement of a relationship
between phenomena that is always the same
under the same conditions.
Force = mass x acceleration
A theory is a unifying principle that explains
a body of facts and/or those laws that are
based on them.
Atomic Theory
7
Problem 1.3
Classify the following statement as
(a) qualitative
(b) quantitative
1.The sun is approximately 93 million miles
from earth.
2. Leonardo daVinci was a better painter than
Michelangelo.
3.Ice is less dense than water.
4.Butter tastes better than margarine.
8
Problem 1.4 (a)
Classify the following statement as a
(a) hypothesis (b) law (c) theory
1.Beethoven’s contribution to music would have
been much greater if he had married.
2. An autumn leaf gravitates toward the ground
because there is an attractive force between the
leaf and the earth.
3. All matter is composed of very small particles
called atoms
9
Chemistry is the study of matter and the
changes it undergoes
Matter is anything that occupies space and
has mass.
A substance is a form of matter that has a
definite composition and distinct properties.
liquid nitrogen
gold ingots
silicon crystals
10
A mixture is a combination of two or more substances
in which the substances retain their distinct identities.
1. Homogenous mixture – composition of the
mixture is the same throughout.
clear juice (apple, cranberry), bronze, solder
2. Heterogeneous mixture – composition is not
uniform throughout.
cement,
iron filings in sand
11
Physical means can be used to separate a mixture
into its pure components.
magnet
distillation
12
A compound is a substance composed of atoms
of two or more elements chemically united in fixed
proportions.
Compounds can only be separated into their
pure components (elements) by chemical
means.
lithium fluoride
quartz
dry ice – carbon dioxide
13
An element is a substance that cannot be
separated into simpler substances by chemical
means.
• 114 elements have been identified
• 82 elements occur naturally on Earth
Element 118
discovered
in 2006!
gold, aluminum, lead, oxygen, carbon, sulfur
• 32 elements have been created by scientists
technetium, americium, seaborgium

Types of Changes
A physical change does not alter the composition
or identity of a substance.
sugar dissolving
ice melting
in water
A chemical change alters the composition or
identity of the substance(s) involved.
hydrogen burns in
air to form water
20
Problem 1.12(a)
Does the following describe a (a) chemical change
or a (b) physical change?
1. The helium gas inside of a balloon tends to leak
out after a few hours.
2. Frozen orange juice is reconstituted by adding
water to it.
3. The growth of plants depends on the sun’s
energy in a process called photosynthesis.
4. A spoonful of table salt dissolves in a bowl of
soup.
21
Extensive and Intensive Properties
An extensive property of a material depends upon
how much matter is is being considered.
• mass
• length
• volume
An intensive property of a material does not
depend upon how much matter is is being
considered.
• density
• temperature
• color
22
Matter - anything that occupies space and has mass.
mass – measure of the quantity of matter
SI unit of mass is the kilogram (kg)
1 kg = 1000 g = 1 x 103 g
weight – force that gravity exerts on an object
W=mxa
SI unit of force is the Newton (N)
1 N = 1 kg∙m/s2
Interestingly, the process of measuring mass is called
weighing!
23
Mass is constant, while weight is dependent on
location
On the moon, a = 1.67 m/s2
W = m x a = 1 kg x 1.67 m/s2
1.67 Newton
On earth, a = 9.81 m/s2
W = 1 kg x 9.81 m/s2 = 9.81 kg∙m/s2
9.81 Newton
9.81 Newton/1.67 Newton = 5.87
A 1 kg mass weighs almost 6 times more on earth than on
the moon!
24
International System of Units (SI)
25
26
Volume – SI derived unit for volume is cubic meter (m3)
1 cm3 = (1 x 10-2 m)3 = 1 x 10-6 m3
1 dm3 = (1 x 10-1 m)3 = 1 x 10-3 m3
1 L = 1000 mL = 1000 cm3 = 1 dm3
1 mL = 1 cm3
27
Density – SI derived unit for density is kg/m3
1 g/cm3 = 1 g/mL = 1000 kg/m3
mass
density =
volume
m
d= V

g/cm3 has a volume of 4.49 cm3. What is its mass?

that is commonly known as grain alcohol,
is 0.798 g/mL. Calculate the mass of 17.4
mL of the liquid.
