Extensive Properties * Varies for different amount of a substance * mass, volume, length, width, thickness, area, height 2. Physical States of Matter and the Kinetic Molecular Theory There are three states of matter: solid, liquid and gas Since the particles of matter are very tiny to be observed, there is a need to develop a scientific model. + The Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) provides a model of moving Particles in order to explain some properties of matter. It is based on the following assumptions: a. Molecules of gases move very fast in a series of straight-line paths. b. The distance between molecules is great that is why the volume occupied by molecules is negligible compared to the container's volume. c. The average kinetic energy of the molecules is proportional to the Kelvin scale or absolute temperature. d. The forces of attraction/repulsion between molecules are negligible. e. The collision of molecules is perfectly elastic. That is, energy is conserved. + Based on the model, the particles in solid, liquid and gas can be represented as follows: liquid solid c ct e kine Tower average ) high average kinetic energy lower average kinetic 0 much rf ‘ energy of particles Kinetic energy of particles © mostly empty space > negligible molecular © particles are closer © particles move closer ther together rigid structure 1 V.EA, Learning, Ine.

The Periodic Table The modern periodic table is adapted from Mendeleev's law of periodicity: When elements are arranged in the order of increasing atomic weights, their properties follow a pattern. He further showed that whether they are arranged vertically in increasing atomic weight or horizontally, the group of elements exhibit ‘similar chemical properties. Two more changes in the periodic table followed when in 1890 Sir William Ramsey iscovered the noble gases and Moseley’s x-ray experiments in 1913 showed that physical and chemical properties of elements are periodic functions of their atomic numbers.

Periodic Trends When evaluating periodic trends of some elements and properties related to the periodic properties, remember that 1) Electrons have electrostatic attraction to protons in the nucleus; 2) the closer the electron is to the nucleus, the stronger the attraction; 3) Electrons between the valence electrons and the nucleus have a shielding effect on the valence electrons.

Chemical Bonding ‘© attractive forces that bind atoms or ions together in liquids or solids. * Types of forces a.

Na--CE — : Bond between Na‘ and CI to form NaCl Gi-Mg-Cl: + Bond between Mg? and two CI ions to form MgCl, b. Covalent bond: a bond shared by atoms of the same kind such as carbon atoms in diamonds or by two or more atoms in a compound such as SiO, Covalent solids are very hard and have very high melting and boiling points. c. Metallic bond: nuclei-electron attraction in metals characterized by free- moving electrons throughout the metallic substance. Delocalized electrons make metallic substances good conductor of heat and electricity, d. Van der Waals: very weak attractive forces Dipole-dipole: bond between neutral, polar molecules where the positive end of one polar molecule is attracted to the negative end of another polar molecule, These are usually substances which are gases or liquids at room molecules that occur randomly on atoms within molecules. A molecule acts as a very weak dipole when there is a concentration of electrons on one ‘ lightly polar. fivaragen bond: attraction between the postvely-charged hyérogen end of a molecule and the negative end of another molecule with a high electronegative element such as fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen.

Carbon compounds are so diverse that they compose more than 90% of known compounds. Note: Some carbon-contai (BaCOs) and cyanides (NaCN). ng compounds are inorganic like carbonates Isomers: compounds having identical molecular formulas but different structural formulas and properties.
