Double Displacement Precipitation
- the exchange of 2 ionic compounds they precipitate
AB + CD = AD + BC
- reactions that form solid are precipitate and the aqueous solutions are the precipitation
reactions
- The only ionic compounds that can precipitate are insoluble compounds.
Atoms
-All matter are made of atoms
- Proton – has positive charge
-Neutron – no charge
-Electron – negative charge, has no real mass
-Atomic Number – no. of protons in an atom
-Neutral atom – no. of protons = no. of electrons
-Atomic Mass- no. neutrons and protons
-No. of protons in an atom never changes but neutrons can change
-Isotopes – atoms of the same element but with a different no. of neutrons
- Ions –atoms of the same element but with a different no. of electrons
*If an atom loses electrons, it becomes positively charged
* If an atom gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged
Atomic Theory
1. Early Theory
- Aristotle – all matter are made of 4 elements fire, air, water, earth
- Democritus – all matter are made of small units called atomos
2. Modern Theory
- Dalton (1800 England)
* All elements are made of atoms and they are indestructible solid spheres. They can’t be
created or destroyed THE LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MATTER
*Atoms of the same element are exactly alike.
*Atoms of different elements are different compounds formed by joining of atoms of two or
more elements
- Thomson (1897-England)
*Discovered the electrons
-Rutherford (1897- England)
*1908, discovered the Nucleus
-Bohr(1913 Denmark)
*Electron are in orbits and has certain energy levels around the nucleus
Electron Cloud Model
- Electrons travel in regions called electron clouds
- You can’t predict the exact location of electrons
Energy Levels
-The energy of an electron is based on its location around the nucleus
-Electrons that are closer to the nucleus has less energy
Level 1 – 2 electrons
Level 2 – 8 electrons
Level 3 – 8 electrons
Level 4 -18 electrons
Level 5- 32 electrons
Heat
-transfer of energy due to temperature changes

Calorimetry
-the measure of heat flow
-Calorimeter
*used to measure Calorimetry
Specific Heat Capacity- amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of 1g of substance
by 1 degree Celsius
Energy changes heat of fusion (ΔHfus): melting/freezing
heat of vaporization (ΔHvap): boiling/condensing
Equation of Heat
q = m C ΔT (used within a given state of matter)
q = m ΔH (used during phase change)
where
q = heat (J) C = specific heat (J/g°C) ΔH = heat of vap/fus (J/g)
m = mass of substance (g)
ΔT = temperature changes (°C)

Equilibrium
- All reactions are reversible and under certain conditions can reach a state of equilibrium.
-Equilibrium- forward rate = reversal rate
- Chemical Equilibrium, dynamic state, the reactions can still occur while being in a
equilibrium but because they occur at the same rate, no net change is observed on the
macroscopic level.
- K =relationship of products and
reactants of a reaction at a
equilibrium.
- If the value of K
- small, reaction yields little product
before reaching equilibrium,
reactants
Reaction Quotient Q
-large, reaction reaches equilibrium
with little reactant remaining,
products
- aA + bB = cC + dD
-Qc =
[𝐶]𝑐 [𝐷]𝑑
[𝐴]𝑎 [𝐵]𝑏
-Q gives the ratio of product concentrations to reactant concentrations at any point in a
reaction.
- For a particular system and temperature, the same equilibrium state is attained regardless
of starting concentrations. The value of Q indicates how close the reaction is to
equilibrium, and in which direction it must proceed to reach equilibrium.
Forms of K and Q
-For an overall reaction that is the sum of two more individual reactions:
Qoverall = Q1 x Q2 x Q3 x …..
Koverall = K1 x K2 x K3 x ……
Heterogeneous equilibrium
- reactants and/or product in different phases
-A pure solid or liquid always has the same “concentration”, i.e., the same number of moles
per liter of solid or liquid.
-The expressions for Q and K include only species whose concentrations change as the
reaction approaches equilibrium.
Pure solids and liquids are omitted from the expression for Q or K..
- If Q < K, the reactants must decrease and the products increase; the reaction proceeds
toward the products; reactants → products until equilibrium is reached.
- If Q > K, the reactants must increase and the products decrease; the reaction proceeds
toward the reactants; reactants ← products until equilibrium is reached.
- If Q = K, the system is at equilibrium and no further net change takes place.
Le Châtelier’s Principle
- chemical system at equilibrium is disturbed, it reattains equilibrium by undergoing a net
reaction that reduces the effect of the disturbance
- The system responds to a disturbance by a shift in the equilibrium position
- Shift to the left is a net reaction of product to reactant, shift to the right is a net reaction
from reactant to product
Electrochemistry
- unites chemistry and electricity, study of the transfer of electrons
- Voltage/Charge/Current
- electric potential difference is called voltage. Measurement of voltage is volts
- Coulomb, measurement of electric charge
-Current, the flow of charge per unit of time, Ampere measurement of current, 1C/s
-Energy (J)= potential (V) x Charge(C)
Cathode /Reduction and
Anode/Oxidation
- When the electronic conductor gives
up electrons to the ionic
conductor then the reaction is
called a cathodic reaction.
- Electrode that produces electrons
are called anodic reaction.
Electrons flow in the opposite
direction to the positive side
- Oxidation, the loss of electrons
- Reduction, the gain of electrons
-Anode, the electrode where electricity moves into, the positive side
-Cathode, the electrode where electricity is given out or flows out of, the negative side

reactions occur spontaneously) are called voltaic cells or galvanic cells, and common
batteries consist of one or more such cells.

-ZAE
- Carbon-12 has a mass of 12 u, 6 protons and 6 neutrons
Subatomic Particles
- (u) atomic mass unit, 1u = 1/12th the mass of a carbon-12 atom
- Proton and Neutron’ s mass > 1u
- electron, 9.11 x 10-31 kg, 5.485 x 10-4 u
- proton, 1.673 x 10-27 kg, 1.0073 u
- neutron, 1.675 x 10-27 kg, 1.0087 u
- The mass of a nucleus is slightly less than the mass of the individual nucleons
- Missing mass of the nucleus is called mass defect, Δm = mass of the protons and neutrons
– mass of the nucleus
- Energy and mass can be interconverted
- E = mc2
- When protons & neutrons are packed together to form a nucleus, some of the mass is
converted to energy and released
- This amount of mass is equal to the force of attraction holding the nucleons together
-The total energy required to break up a nucleus into its constituent protons & neutrons
- The number of neutrons in a nucleus can vary
- too much or too few neutrons, can cause instability
- Stable nuclei doesn’t decay spontaneously
- Unstable nuclei have a certain probability to decay
Radioactivity
- spontaneous decomposition of an unstable nucleus into a more stable nucleus by releasing
energy

- Beta Decay (decreases N:Z ratio)
- Gamma Decay
- Alpha Particles, relatively heavy and double charged, lose energy quickly in matter
- Beta Particles, much smaller and singly charged, interact slowly in matter
- Gamma rays and X-ray, high energy, more lengthy interaction with matter
Hazards of Radiation Types
- Alpha Emissions, easily shielded, considered
hazardous is alpha emitting material is ingested
or inhaled
- Beta Emissions, shielded by thin layers of
material, considered hazardous is beta emitting
material is ingested or inhaled
- Gamma Emissions
- need dense material for shielding, considered hazardous when external to the body
Radioactivity Decay Rates/Half Life (3 valve pls)
- The relative stability of nuclei can be expressed in terms of the time required for the half of
the sample to decay

Kinetics
- the rate at which chemical process occurs
Reaction Speed- measured by the change in concentration with time
Factors that can affect the rate of reations
- reactant concentration
- temperature
- action of catalysts
- surface area
- pressure of the gaseous reactants and products
Reaction Rates- measure the rate
Rate Laws- rate depends on the amount of reactants
Integrated Rate Laws – calculate the amount left of the time to reach a given amount
Half-Life – how long it takes to react 50% of the reactants
Arrhenius Equation- rate constant changes with temperature
Mechanisms- link between rate and molecular scale processes
For the reaction A  B there are two ways of measuring rate:
- the speed at which the reactants disappear
- the speed at which the products appear
Reversible Reactions- as products accumulates, they can begin to turn back into reactants
Instantaneous rate =∆[A]/∆t limits to d[A]/dt
Most Common Units… Rate = M/s
Where Molarity (M) =moles/liter
Reaction rate is the change in the concentration of a reactant or a product with time (M/s)
Factors that affect the Reaction Rate Constant
1. Temperature
- at high temperature, reactant molecules have more kinetic energy, moves faster, speeding
or slowing up the reaction
*Collision Theory, when 2 chemicals react, their molecules have to collide with each other
for the reaction to take place
*Kinetic Theory, increasing temperature means the molecules move faster
2. Concentrations of the reactants
-As the concentrations of reactants increases so does the likelihood that reactant molecules
will collide,
3. Catalysts
- Speed up reactions by lowering activation energy
4. Surface area of a solid reactant
-more area for reactants for contact
5. Pressure of gaseous reactants or products
- Increased number of collisions

Intermolecular Forces
- (inter = between) between molecules and the temperature (kinetic energy) of
molecules.

energy of the attractions between them
Liquids: the intermolecular attractive forces are strong enough to hold the molecules close
together, but without much order
Solids: the intermolecular attractive forces are strong enough to lock molecules in place
(high order).
Types of intermolecular forces (between neutral molecules):
- Hydrogen bonding: cases of very strong dipole-dipole interaction
-London dispersion forces: (instantaneous dipole moment)( also referred to as van der
Waal’s forces)
polarizability: the ease with which an atom or molecule can be distorted to have an
instantaneous dipole. “squashiness”
Other types of forces holding solids together
Ionic: “charged ions stuck together by their charges” , There are no individual molecules
here.
