In your Grade 8 Chemistry, you have learned that several scientists conducted
a study about how an atom looks like, and they proposed different models of the
atoms.
Around 400B.C., the Greek philosopher Democritus proposed that matter is
composed of “tiny, indivisible particles”. The idea of atom continued with the work of
John Dalton, who developed and proposed the atomic theory of matter in 1803. In
1897, J. J. Thomson discovered “electrons” through his cathode ray experiment. He
also proposed the “plum pudding” model of an atom.

What is It
Quantum Numbers
Quantum Number is a value that is used to describe the energy levels
available to atoms and molecules. It is the exact location of an electron. An orbital
can be described by the four quantum numbers n, l, ml, and ms.
In writing quantum numbers, here are the steps in determining the quantum
numbers.
• Start by writing out the electron configuration and orbital diagram for the
element (recall Bohr Planetary Model).
• Locate the electrons in the orbital diagram.
• Determine the 4 quantum numbers
Example 1: H1
n 1 Hydrogen is located at first shell in energy level
l 0 1s1 sub energy level s = 0
ml 0
the spin is located at the 0
the arrow or spin indicate the number of electron in an element

ml -1
the spin is located at the -1
Below is the example of the last electron configuration of Boron (1s 2 2s2 2p1 ).
In this given, we can still identify the set of quantum numbers.
2p1 n= 2
Period is the horizontal row of the periodic table. There are seven periods in
the periodic table, with each one begins from left to right.
Group/Family is the vertical column in the periodic table.
Valence electrons are those electrons found in the outermost shell of an
atom.
Group number and valence electron are equal. If the group number is 1 the
valence electron is also 1.
Core electrons are the electrons in an atom that are not
valence electrons and do not participate in chemical bonding.
Unpaired Electron is an electron that occupies an orbital singly, rather than
as part of electron pair.
Paired Electron occurs when two electrons occupying the same orbital in an
atom or molecule.

Chemical Bonding
2
An atom of different elements, to become stable, must have a closed
configuration similar to those of noble or inert gases. Because of this, atoms tend to
lose, gain, or share their electrons with the other atoms, forming a certain linkage or
bond.
For example, an atom, like Sodium (Na), will tend to give away its one electron
in the outer shell to have a closed configuration similar to Neon (Ne). In the same
way, a Chlorine (Cl) atom that has seven electrons (one less than the number needed
to fill the orbit) in its outermost shell, must accept or receive an electron to fill the
shell and obtain a closed configuration similar to Argon (Ar).

What is It
If you know the chemical formula of a compound, you can predict whether it
contains ionic bonds, covalent bonds, or a mixture of bond types. Nonmetals bond
to each other via covalent bonds while oppositely charged ions, such as metals and
nonmetals, form ionic bonds. Compounds that contain polyatomic ions may
have both ionic and covalent bonds.
This is where the properties of ionic and covalent compounds can be useful.
But how can we identify the physical properties of ionic and covalent compounds?
We know that atoms bond to each other. Scientists have found that there are
only three types of bonds: Ionic bond, Covalent bond, and Metallic bond. If atoms
have an ionic bond, the compound they form is called an ionic compound. If atoms
have a covalent bond, the compound they form is called a covalent compound. These
compounds have different properties that did not happen by chance but are greatly
influenced by the nature of chemical forces in the substances.

How Ions are Formed

Everyone is seeking stability. Stability refers to the strength to stand or
resistance to chemical change or physical disintegration. If humans seek stability,
so are atoms. Stability in atoms involves the possession of eight electrons in its
outermost energy level of valence electrons. We call this octet rule, which was
proposed by an American chemist Gilbert Newton Lewis. He spent one year in the
Philippines as the Superintendent of the Bureau of Weights and Measures.

The Carbon Compounds

Carbon is an element that has unique properties that makes it essential to
human life. Without this element, life as we know it would not exist. Carbon has an
exceptional ability to bind with a variety of other elements because of its four valence
electrons to form a huge number of large, complex molecules called organic
molecules. What’s so great about Carbon? About 98% of all the chemical substances
used today are made up of carbon, the very sociable atom. Carbon is also known as
the covalent “diamond star”.
Almost every day, we encounter several organic compounds- the food we eat,
the clothes we wear, plastic wares, rubber products, protein-based materials,
alcohol, acetone, school and office supplies, some construction materials-paints,
PVC pipes, plywood to name a few.

Diesel oil has a sour or pungent odor, similar to rotten eggs. It occurs when
the hydrocarbon constituents of lube oil combine chemically with oxygen. As with
most chemical reactions, oil oxidation is accelerated by heat and pressure.
Today's diesel models aren't smelly, and they barely make any sound than a
traditional gasoline engine. If there's a noticeable thick burning oil smell coming
from your car, it may mean that your oil is leaking. Oil can drip out onto the hot
engine parts, creating this acrid smell. If your oil is leaking, it could also mean that
your vehicle is overheating.
Ethanol is a clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic, agreeable odor. In
dilute aqueous solution, it has a somewhat sweet flavor, but in more concentrated
solutions and has a burning taste.

Organic compounds are groups of compounds that contain the element
carbon. Organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen combined with other
elements namely oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorous, sulfur, and halogens (fluorine,
chlorine, bromine, and iodine) Ethyl alcohol, acetone, gasoline, naphthalene, acetic
acid, vanillin, acetylene, and esters are just a few examples of many useful organic
compounds. These kinds of compounds are produced by plants and animals.
However, these carbon-containing compounds can also be produced artificially.
There are also organic compounds that are produced from petroleum: liquefied
petroleum gas (LPG), gasoline, lubricating oil, and kerosene. These compounds have
different uses in the community.

The things we need in everyday life can either be bought or traded. We
usually buy things by piece. Some others, we buy in sets, dozen, or even in bulk.
We use these terms to show how much of something we would want to buy or
trade. We can call these terms counting units.
Most counting units can be used for physically visible objects such as plates,
shoes, and many other things. But how can we count the objects that cannot be
physically seen, such as the particles of a given solution or a substance?

could help you understand the mole.
It is the day we celebrate the mole. No, not the mole the animal, and not mole
the congenital growth; not mole the sauce, or even mole the spy. Mole day celebrates
the mole that the SI unit in measuring the quantity of a substance. And, scientists,
who are known for letting loose and partying, have a great time on Mole Day.
The term mole is likely derived from the German word Molekũl meaning
molecule. The first usage in English dates from 1897, in a work translated from
German. Some sources place the date of the first usage as 1902.
Celebrated annually on October 23 from 6.02 am to 6.02 pm. Mole Day
commemorates Avogadro’s Number (6.02 x 10 23), which is the basic measuring unit
in Chemistry. Schools in the United States and around the world celebrate Mole Day
with various activities related to chemistry and/or moles.
For a given molecule, one mole is a mass (in grams) whose number is equal to
the mass of the molecule. For example, the water molecule has a formula mass of
18, therefore, one mole of water weighs 18 grams. An atom of neon has an atomic
mass of 20, therefore, one mole of neon weighs 20 grams. In general, one mole of any
substance contains Avogadro’s number of molecules or atoms of that substance. This
relationship was first discovered by Amedeo Avogadro (1776-1858), and he received
credit for this after his death.

Are you interested to know how much of an element is present in a compound?
You can answer this question by determining percentage composition. The mass of
each element in a compound compared to the entire mass of the compound
multiplied by 100 percent is called the percentage composition of the compound. So,
the percentage composition of a compound tells you the percentage of the mass made

o You now have a formula representing the mole ratio of the
elements in the compound and you need to make these integers.
3. Divide # of Moles of each element by the one with the smallest
value (forcing it to one and making all other values greater than one).
4. Multiply the results of step 3 by the smallest integer which will
convert them all to whole numbers.
The empirical formula for this compound is thus CH 2. This may or not be the
compound’s molecular formula as well; however, we would need additional
information to make that determination.
Recall that empirical formulas are symbols representing
the relative numbers of a compound’s elements. Determining the absolute numbers
of atoms that compose a single molecule of a covalent compound requires knowledge
of both its empirical formula and its molecular mass or molar mass.
The empirical formula is HO. The mass of this empirical formula is 17.
34 DO_Q2_Scicence9_Module1-8
Adding the two (1 and 16) will give 17. Dividing this into the molecular mass
(34/17=2), we find that there are two of these formula units, (HO)2, in a molecule of
the compound. Thus, the molecular formula is H2O2. This is the molecular formula
of hydrogen peroxide.
