1. Convert the following:

A. 1000000
Formula: multiply the mass value by 1000
B.32 degrees
Formula: (0°C × 9/5) + 32 = 32°F
C.5000 centimeters
Formula: multiply the length value by 100
D. length (feet) x width (feet) x height (feet) / 35.315 = cubic meters

2. identify whether the ff compounds are ionic or molecular:

A. Cas04 (Ionic)
B. CO2 (Molecular)
C. N204 (Molecular)
D. CuS (Ionic)
E. CH4 (Ionic)

3. Give the name of the ff compounds:

A. MgI2 - Magnesium Iodide
B. CaO - Calcium Oxide
C. Cu3P2 - Copper(II) Phosphide
D. K20 - Potassium Oxide
E. PbSO4 - Lead Sulfate
2. Enumerate the different fields of chemistry:

➢ Nuclear Chemistry – is the sub-field of chemistry dealing with radioactivity,

nuclear processes, and transformations in the nuclei of atoms, such as nuclear
transmutation and nuclear properties.

➢ Electrochemistry - is the branch of physical chemistry that studies the

relationship between electricity, as a measurable and quantitative phenomenon,
and identifiable chemical change, with either electricity considered an outcome of
a particular chemical change or vice versa.

➢ Industrial Chemistry - is the manufacturing art concerned with the

transformation of matter into useful materials in useful amounts. Usually this
transformation of available materials into more desirable ones involves some
kind of process following a recipe.

➢ Physical Chemistry - is the study of macroscopic, and particulate

phenomena in chemical systems in terms of the principles, practices, and
concepts of physics such as motion, energy, force, time, thermodynamics,
quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, analytical dynamics and chemical
equilibrium.

➢ Organic Chemistry - is the study of the structure, properties, composition,

reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds, which include not
only hydrocarbons but also compounds with any number of other elements,
including hydrogen.

➢ Inorganic Chemistry - deals with synthesis and behavior of inorganic and

organometallic compounds. This field covers all chemical compounds except the
myriad of organic compounds, which are the subjects of organic chemistry.

➢ Analytical Chemistry - studies and uses instruments and methods used to

separate, identify, and quantify matter. In practice, separation, identification or
quantification may constitute the entire analysis or be combined with another
method. Separation isolates analytes.

➢ Biochemistry - is the branch of science that explores the chemical processes

within and related to living organisms. It is a laboratory based science that brings
together biology and chemistry. By using chemical knowledge and techniques,
biochemists can understand and solve biological problems.
