Lesson
Stellar Nucleosynthesis: Rise
1 of the Stars!
The world where we live today is just a small part of our universe. In your
previous science lessons, you have learned different theories about the origin
of the universe that led to the formation of galaxies, solar system and other
heavenly bodies. This lesson will focus on one of those wonderful things in
outer space, the stars. Although stars are millions of light years away from
us, we can still see them twinkling in the night sky. Let’s find out how they
emit light and what keeps them shining for a long time.
7
What’s In
Scientists believe that the formation of the universe began through the
explosion of a primordial atom which happened approximately 13.7 billion
years ago. The origin of the universe is described by the Big Bang theory
which was introduced by Edwin Hubble. In 1929, Hubble demonstrated that
all celestial objects in the universe move away from each other.
Right after Big Bang, protons and neutrons combined and formed light
elements Hydrogen and Helium through the process of Big Bang
Nucleosynthesis. Other light elements such as Lithium and Beryllium were
also formed during this process.

What’s New
Stellar Nucleosynthesis
The word “stellar” means star and the formation of elements in the center of the star
is called stellar nucleosynthesis. Carl Sagan said that “We are made of star stuff.”
What did he mean by that? If we know how some important heavy elements were
formed same as stars, that maybe a clue.

Hints/ Clues
Average Star
1. The star is unable to generate heat when it runs out of hydrogen
in its core leading to its contraction and expansion. It cools
down and glows red. The Helium fused into Carbon. The star is
now RED GIANT
2. Red giant star becomes exhausted of nuclear fuel, the outer
material is blown off into space leaving the inert Carbon. The
remnant is known as WHITE DWARF.
3. Giant cloud of gas and dust known as NEBULA.
4. It is formed from nebula due to the gravity that pulled Hydrogen
gas together until it spins faster and faster and becomes ignited.
A PROTOSTAR rises.
5. MAIN SEQUENCE STAR starts to form when nuclear fusion
occurs at the core of the star, it begins to contract, glow and
become stable. Hydrogen is converted into Helium.
6. This is said to be the remain of the white dwarf that cooled down
and no longer emits light and heat. The hypothetical BLACK
DWARF.
Massive star
1. It is believed that a NEUTRON STAR is formed from supernova
explosion. This is also the smallest star
2. Explosion of star or SUPERNOVA releases large amount of energy.
Because of that, elements are dispersed into the space.
3. BLACK HOLE is a region in space where gravity is too strong that
no matter can escape from it.
4. A more massive main sequence star evolves, cools and expands
faster than low mass star and will turn into RED SUPER GIANT
star, the largest known star. Carbon fusion still occurs and Oxygen
formed.
10
What is It
Were you able to label all the stages of star? Review the hints/clues in the previous
activity. You will notice that following the sequence will reveal what happens in each
stage of star.
1. What element from space is pulled by gravity and turned into a protostar?
______________________________________________________________________
2. What will happen if a low mass main sequence star runs out of hydrogen fuel?
_______________________________________________________________________
3. How are heavy elements such as Carbon, Oxygen and Neon formed during
star formation?
_______________________________________________________________________
4. Why is it impossible for any matter such as light and radiation to escape from
a black hole?
________________________________________________________________________
5. Why do you think massive star has shorter life span than average stars?
________________________________________________________________________
11
Look at the diagrams below in order to understand how stars are formed into
different stages because of nuclear fusion (combination of nuclei to form heavier
one) among heavy elements.
12
Tri alpha process happens in red giant star once they leave the stage of main
sequence star. This is how three Helium-4 are converted into Carbon.
A star accumulates more mass and continues to grow into red super giant.
Alpha particle fusion happens at its core and creates more heavy elements
until Iron. This is known as the Alpha ladder process.
13
How do elements heavier than Iron form? As the energy at the core
of the star decreases, nuclear fusion cannot produce elements
higher than Iron. A different pathway is needed for heavier
elements to be formed.
Neutron capture, a neutron is added to a seed nucleus.
Below is the representation of how neutron is captured,
and a heavier nucleus is formed.
Example:

What I Have Learned
Read the paragraph then fill in the blanks with the correct word/s.
It all starts with 1. ____________, cloud of gas and dust particle in outer space.
Due to the force of gravity, the 2. ____________ gas is pulled together and eventually
became a protostar. Nebular fusion occurs at the center of the protostar and becomes
stable. During this time, hydrogen is converted into 3. _____________ forming main
sequence star. The size of the star can be average or massive. A massive main
sequence star that runs out of hydrogen fuel will begin to expand and cool down.
This is 4. ________________, the collective term for massive stars in the universe. The
red super giant continues to fuse with heavy elements and stops when 5. ___________
is converted in the core of the star. At this point, red super giant will become a
supernova after hundreds of years.
What I Can Do
Now you have learned how stars are formed, go through their lifespan and how each
stage of the life of a star leads to formation of elements. There are many processes
that stars have to undergo before they evolve from one stage to another.
For your next task, you will write a story which relates the events of your life from
past, present and future to the life cycle of a star. Use also those elements which
could symbolize something or anything in your story. (Use another sheet of paper for
this task).

Lesson Physical Sciences: Concept of
Atomic Number that Led to the
6 Synthesis
of New Elements in the Laboratory
The atoms that make up the elements are further composed of tiny particles, the
neutron, proton and electron. H and Helium are the elements that exist in the
early beginning of the Big Bang. As the Universe expanded and cooled, there was
a period of proton-proton chain reaction wherein protons fused into Helium. Red
giant cores get past this via the Triple-Alpha process, but the Universe expands
right through this possibility and the density/temperature are quickly too low to
support synthesis of any additional elements.
What’s In
You learned earlier how all matter in the universe is made from tiny building
blocks called atoms. All modern scientists accept the concept of the atom, but
when the concept of the atom was first proposed about 2,500 years ago, ancient
philosophers laughed at and opposed the idea. It has always been difficult to
convince people about the existence of things that are too small to be seen. We
will spend some time considering the evidence (observations) that helped
convince scientists of the existence of atoms.
Do you have any idea how the different elements on the periodic table were
formed, known and identified? Let’s have a short review.
There is what we call Big Bang Theory that has some key stages: Singularity,
Inflation, Nucleosynthesis and Recombination: Let us differentiate them.
Singularity is a one-dimensional point which contains a huge mass in an
infinitely small space, where density and gravity become infinite and space-time
curves infinitely, and where the laws of physics as we know them cease to
operate. The basic homogeneity in distribution of matter in the universe was
established as a consequence of the first phase of inflation. Nucleosynthesis
was the nuclear fusion and the formation of new nuclei actions in the early
stages of development of the universe. Recombination - the formation of the
capture of free electrons by the cations in a plasma.
34
What’s New
Make your own periodic table using the hypothetical elements that
are given clues. Explain the word/s that will be formed if you arrange
the symbols of the elements correctly.
a. P and Pr both have one electron each. Pr has a bigger atomic size.
b. Od, Ri, and E are in the same series as P, C, and I. In terms of atomic
size, P is the biggest while C is the smallest. E is a metal while I is a
non-metal. Od is smaller than Ri in atomic size.
c. O has a bigger atomic size than E in the same group. Y is also a
bigger atom than C in the same group. R is more nonmetallic than
Pe but more metallic than Ti.
What is It
Key Points
35
Elements with atomic numbers greater than 92 (atomic number of
uranium) are called transuranium elements They were discovered
in the laboratory using nuclear reactors or particle accelerators.
Activity 1.1 Making Your Own Periodic Table shows how theoretical elements
where arranged according to their atomic weights. For example, H has an
atomic mass of 1.00794 amu, which makes hydrogen the lightest element on
the periodic table. Hydrogen, H, was named by Laviosier and is the most
abundant element on the periodic table. It is followed by He, Li, Be and so on
and so fort because atomic weight is used to arrange elements from lightest
to heaviest.
By arranging the elements based on the square root of the frequency that they
emitted, he was able to arrange the elements that approximates their observed
properties as proposed by Mendeleev.
36
Henry Moseley proposed that the elements’ atomic number, or place in the
periodic table, was uniquely tied to their “positive charge”, or the number of
protons they have. This discovery allowed for a better arrangement of the
periodic table, and predicted elements that were not yet discovered. His
method of identifying elements by shooting electrons and looking at x-rays
became a very useful tool in characterizing elements, and is now called x-ray
spectroscopy.
When the elements were arranged according to their atomic numbers, there
were four gaps in the table. These gaps corresponded to the atomic numbers
43, 61, 85, and 87. These elements were later synthesized in the laboratory
through nuclear transmutations.

37
The Discovery of the Missing Elements
Recall that in 1925, there were four vacancies in the periodic table
corresponding to the atomic numbers 43, 61, 85, and 87. Two of these
elements were synthesized in the laboratory using particle accelerators. A
particle accelerator is a device that is used to speed up the protons to overcome
the repulsion between the protons and the target atomic nuclei by using
magnetic and electrical fields. It is used to synthesize new elements. In 1937,
American physicist Ernest Lawrence was also able to synthesize element with
atomic number 43 using a linear particle accelerator. He bombarded
molybdenum (Z=42) with fast-moving neutrons. The newly synthesized
element was named Technetium (Tc) after the Greek word "technêtos" meaning
“artificial.” Tc was the first man-made element.
97
42𝑀𝑜 + 21𝐻 97
43𝑇𝑐 + 10𝑛
In 1940, Dale Corson, K. Mackenzie, and Emilio Segre discovered element with
atomic number 85. They bombarded atoms of bismuth (Z=83) with fast-moving
alpha particles in a cyclotron. A cyclotron is a particle accelerator that uses
alternating electric field to accelerate particles that move in a spiral path in
the presence of a magnetic field. Element-85 was named astatine from the
Greek word “astatos” meaning unstable.
The two other elements with atomic numbers 61 and 87 were discovered
through studies in radioactivity. Element-61 (Promethium) was discovered as
a decay product of the fission of uranium while element-87 (Francium) was
discovered as a breakdown product of uranium.
The invention of cyclotron paved the way for artificial transmutation of one
element into another. The high-energy particles produced by the cyclotron
produce heavier nuclei upon hitting heavy target nuclei.
The Universe ran into the Be problem. Red giant cores get past this via the
Triple-Alpha process, but the Universe expands right through this possibility
and the density/temperature are quickly too low to synthesis any additional
elements.
38
Big Bang Nucleosynthesis
The oldest stars in the Galaxy are deficient in elements heavier than
Helium.
The current record holder has Fe/H about 130,000 times smaller than the
solar value.
Not quite down to Big Bang abundances, but we are getting pretty close
and still looking.
Chemical Evolution
Chemical Evolution II
For more massive stars, `equilibrium’ fusion reactions produce
elements all the way up to Fe.
Freshly made elements are delivered via stellar winds or, sometimes
more spectacularly via supernova explosions
39
Neutron Capture Elements
• There are two principle paths to building the elements heavier than
Fe. Both use the addition of neutrons to existing `seed’ nuclei
(neutrons have no charge so are much easier to add to positively-
charged nuclei).
S-process (slow addition of neutrons)
R-process (rapid addition of neutrons)
The S-process
Here a neutron
changed into a
proton by emitting
an electron
The R-process
40
• We see an overabundance of R-process elements in the oldest stars.
As the early chemical enrichment of the Galaxy was through SNII,
this is evidence of SNII as the source of r-process elements.
• If we look at the Crab Nebula or other SNII remnants we don’t see r-
process elements.
• We DO see regions of enhanced O, Si, Ne and He which appear to
reflect the `onion skin’ structure of the massive star progenitor.
Crab Nebula

In the 1930s, the heaviest element known was uranium, with an atomic
number 92. Early in 1940, Edwin McMillan proved that an element having an
atomic number 93could be created. He used a particle accelerator to bombard
uranium with neutrons and created an element with an atomic number 93
which he named neptunium.

+ −10𝛽
41
Elements with atomic numbers greater than 92 (atomic number of uranium)
are called transuranium elements. Hence, neptunium and plutonium are both
transuranium elements. They are unstable and decay radioactively into other
elements. All these elements were discovered in the laboratory as artificially
generated synthetic elements. They are prepared using nuclear reactors or
particle accelerators. In the next lesson, you will learn the nuclear reactions
involved in the synthesis of these transuranium elements.
Stellar nucleosynthesis
This process creates elements within stars by combining the protons and
neutrons together from the nuclei of lighter elements. Fusion inside stars
transforms hydrogen into helium, heat, and radiation. Heavier elements are
created in different types of stars as they die or explode.
Superheavy elements are elements with atomic numbers beyond 103. These
are produced by bombarding heavy nuclear targets with accelerated heavy
projectiles.
Following are the equations of several nuclear reactions that have important
roles in the history of nuclear chemistry:
• The first naturally occurring unstable element that was isolated, polonium,
was discovered by the Polish scientist Marie Curie and her husband Pierre in
1898. It decays, emitting particles:

Lesson
1 Polarity of Molecules
It is interesting to have a quick glance at the lessons you have learned about
compounds and chemical bonds when you were in Grades 8, 9 and 10. Can you still
recall them? If you still do, then that is great!
Studying this module will certainly increase your understanding about the
polarity of molecules. This module is packed with interesting activities which will make
you enjoy your Chemistry lessons even more. So, are you ready to delve on an exciting
quest for chemistry learning? You may start now by doing the activity below. Goodluck
and happy learning!
What’s In
Chemical bonds are formed when atoms lose, accept or share electrons. An ionic bond
occurs when there is a transfer of one or more valence electrons form one atom to
another. It exists between metal and nonmetal atoms where metal loses electron/s while
nonmetal accepts the electron/s donated by the metal. On the other hand, when two
nonmetal atoms combine, neither of them loses or gains electron Instead, electron pairs
are being shared by both atoms and the type of chemical bond formed is called covalent
bond.
60
Notes to the Teacher
Periodic Table is an indispensable tool in studying chemistry. In
order for the learners to answer the above activity, they must first
be familiar on how to use all the information written on the
periodic table. At this point, they should be able to effectively use
the periodic table in order to classify elements as to metal, non-
metal or semi-metals.
Tell whether the compound below is an ionic compound (IC) or covalent compound
(CC) based on the type of chemical bond present.
ANSWER: NaCl, CaCl2, Fe2O3,KBr, and AlCl3 are all ionic compound because
the atoms involved are combination of metal and nonmetal. On the other hand, CO2,
CCl4, N2O, PCl5 and HCl are covalent compounds because the atoms involved are
both nonmetals.
It’s good that you were able to recall the difference between ionic bond and covalent
bond.
You have learned that a covalent is a shared pair of electrons between two atoms.
But are the electrons equally shared by the combing atoms? How does a polar
covalent bond differ from a nonpolar covalent? Did you know that electronegativity
of an atom can be used to further classify covalent bond into polar and nonpolar?
As you perform the activity below, you will find out that substances have different
polarities, and this explains why there are substances that do not mix while others
do.
61
What’s New
Guide Question:
a. Which of the following set-ups mixed well? Which did not?
b. What can you infer from the result of this activity?
In addition to what you did in the activity, answer the table that follows:
Calculate the electronegativity difference and give the type of bond that exists
between the atoms in each of the following pairs.
62
What is It
The polarity of molecules is determined by the two factors: the polarity of bonds
based on the electronegativity difference of the atoms involved and the geometrical
shape of the molecules which can be predicted via valence shell electron pair
repulsion (VSEPR) theory.
63
Table 1. Type of bond based on electronegativity difference (∆EN) of bonded atoms
Electronegativity
Type of Bond
Difference (∆EN)
Ionic ≥1.7
Polar Covalent 0.5 to 1.6
Nonpolar Covalent ≤ 0.4
For example, you are asked to predict what type of bond is present between the
following pairs of atoms by determining their electronegativity difference.
1. Ca and Cl
2. Cl and Cl
3. H and Cl
4. S and O
5. C and N
Solution:
3. ENH = 2.1 (∆EN) = 2.1 – 3.0 = │-0.9│= 0.9 polar covalent bond
ENCl= 3.0
4. ENS= 2.5 (∆EN) = 2.5 – 3.5 = │-1.0│= 1.0 polar covalent bond
ENO = 3.5
5. ENC= 2.5 (∆EN) = 2.5 – 3.0 = │-0.5│= 0.5 polar covalent bond
ENN = 3.0
Using the above examples, let us know more about polar and nonpolar covalent
bonds. A polar covalent bond is formed when electrons are shared unequally by two
atoms in a compound. The bonded pair of atoms form an electric dipole (represented
by ). Dipole means “two poles” which means that a molecule has one positive
end and one negative end. In this type of bond, the atom with the higher EN value
becomes the partial negative pole (symbolized as ẟ-) while the atom with the lower
EN value becomes the partially positive (symbolized as ẟ+) pole. Always bear in mind
that the direction of the arrow is always pointing from a more electropositive pole to
the more electronegative pole. Take HCl for example, H has higher EN than Cl, thus
the direction of the arrow is pointing away from H and towards Cl. There is unequal
electron density as represented by a size of the circle (refer to figure 2). On the other
hand, a nonpolar covalent bond develops if both atoms equally share a pair of
electrons between them.
64
This occurs when the bonding atoms have approximately equal EN value or equal
ability to attract electrons to each side. Nonpolar covalent bond is an example of
bond formed when two chlorine atoms combine.
(a) (b)
Figure 2. (a) Polar bond between H and Cl and (b) nonpolar bond between two Cl
atoms
Step 1: Determine the central atom of a molecule. The central atom is the
least electronegative element.
Step 2: Draw the appropriate Lewis dot structure for the molecule.
Step 3: Count the number of bonding pairs of electrons and non-bonding (or
lone pairs) around the central atom.
Step 4: Determine the electron pair orientation using the total number of
electron pairs.
Step 5: Identify the shape of the molecule of based on the location of the
atoms.
65
Consider the examples below:
Step 1: ENB = 2.0 ENCl= 3.0 therefore, B will be the central atom and three
Cl atoms are attached to it. By looking at the chemical formula, you will also
have an idea that boron will be the central atom and three atoms of choline
are attached to it.
Step 2:
Step 3: The central atom has three electron pairs: 3 bonded pairs and no
lone pair
Step 4: The electron pair orientation for three electrons is trigonal planar.
Step 5: The molecular shape of BCl3 is trigonal planar.
Example 2: Predict the molecular geometry of CO2
Step 1: ENC= 2.5 ENO= 3.0 therefore, C will be the central atom and two O
atoms will be the attached to it. (Use may also use the chemical formula to
predict which atom will be the central atom
Step 2:
Step 3: For the purpose of determining the position of the bonding pairs, let
us count the double bonds as one bonding pair. Therefore, CO 2 has two
bonding pairs of electron.
Step 4: The electron pair orientation for two electron pairs is linear.
Step 5: The molecular shape of CO2 is linear.
Example 3: Predict the molecular geometry of CHCl3.
Step 1: ENC = 2.5, ENH= 2.1 and ENCl= 3.0. Because carbon is less
electronegative than chlorine and hydrogen is normally terminal atom, C
must be the central atom.
Step 2:
66
Now that you have learned how to determine the molecular geometry, let us now
go on to our discussion of polarity of molecules based on molecular shapes. You
may study the diagram below and we will use it as our guide.
Is the shape
NO YES
symmetrical
in 3D?
YES
Note: You must think about a molecule
in 3-D according to VSEPR Theory The molecule
is NONPOLAR
For both BCl3 and CO2, the atoms are symmetrically arranged (trigonal planar
and linear) and the attached atoms to the central atom are also the same. You must
also take note that in a symmetrical molecule, the sum of the bond dipole is equal
to zero (because they cancel out) and leads to the formation of nonpolar molecule.
Therefore, both BCl3 and CO2 are nonpolar. On the other hand, CHCl3, although it
has a symmetrical arrangement (tetrahedral), the atoms attached to the central atom
are not all the same (3 chlorine atoms and 1 hydrogen atom). This causes CHCl 3 to
become a polar molecule.
Now, let us see if you fully understood our discussion. I want you to try answering
the exercises below.
67
Identify which molecule is polar and which is nonpolar given the Lewis structure
and molecular shapes of the following molecules.
1. NH3 Trigonal
pyramidal
2. H2O Bent or
angular
3. CCl4
Tetrahedral
4. Linear
If you were able to answer that NH3 and H2O are polar molecules because the bond
dipole cannot be cancelled because of the presence of lone pairs on the central atom
and CCl4 and HBr are nonpolar molecules, you are correct. Job well done! You may
now proceed to the rest of this module.

Answer Key
73
What I Have Learned
1. In your own words, differentiate polar and nonpolar covalent bond.
Answer: Polar bonds are formed when there is an unequal sharing of
electrons between atoms, while nonpolar bonds are formed when there
is equal sharing of electrons between atoms.
2. What is electronegativity and how can it be used in in determining the
polarity of molecules?
Answer: Electronegativity measures the tendency of an atom in a molecule to
attract shared electrons toward itself. The concept of electronegativity
can be used to predict whether the bond will be polar or nonpolar. If
the ∆EN is 0.4 or less, the bond is nonpolar. But if the ∆EN is beyond
0.4 but less than 1.7, the bond is polar.
3. Is it possible for a molecule to have a polar bond but have an overall
polarity of nonpolar?
Answer: Yes. Because polarity of molecule is determined both by polarity of
bond and molecular geometry. A molecule can have a polar covalent
bond but still be classified as a nonpolar molecule as long as its
molecular geometry satisfies the condition of VSEPR theory.
4. Differentiate bonding and non-bonding electrons.
Answer: Bonding electrons are those electrons involved in the formation of
covalent bonds while lone pair (nonbonding electrons) refers to a pair
of valence electrons that is not shared with another atom in a covalent
bond.
74
Additional Activities:
1. SiCl4 is a nonpolar molecule.
Correct. Though polar bond is present because ∆EN is 0.8, SiCl4 is still
classified as nonpolar molecule because it has a tetrahedral geometry and the
central atom does not have lone pair.
2. H2S has a linear molecular geometry.
Incorrect. H2S has a bent molecular geometry which gives it an upwards net
dipole moment. Two partially positive hydrogen atoms are attached to the more
electronegative central atom, sulfur. The molecule is represented by AB 2E2
representation wherein the central atom also has two lone pairs.
3. PF5 is a polar molecule.
Correct. Though the value ∆ EN is 1.9 (polar bond is present), Phosphorus
pentafluoride (PF5) exhibits a trigonal bipyramidal based on VSEPR theory
making the overall molecule nonpolar.
What I can do
1. Ammonia (NH3) is polar molecule while boron trifluoride (BF3) is a nonpolar
molecule. Explain the difference in the polarity of these compounds.
Answer: Polarity of molecule is determined by its molecular geometry. Since NH 3 has
a trigonal pyramidal shape, with four electron pairs (3 bonding pairs and 1
nonbonding pair/lone pair), this makes it polar. On the other hand, BF3 has a
trigonal planar geometry with three bonding pairs of electron and central atom
has no lone pair, making it nonpolar.
2. Suppose that AB3E, a hypothetical molecule, is discovered. Predict whether
the molecule is polar or nonpolar by determining its molecular shape.
Note: A – corresponds to central atom,
B - terminal atom
E – lone pair (nonbonding electrons)
Using the concept of VSEPR theory, a molecule with an AB 3E
configuration will exhibit a trigonal bipyramidal shape and therefore it is
nonpolar.

Guide Question:
1. What is the message of the song?
2. If you add oil to the water, what will happen? Will it create a single
homogenous phase or will it form two layers? Why?
3. Why do you think water and oil cannot be mixed even when heated?
Support your answer.

What is It
The general rule to remember about the solubility and miscibility of molecular
compounds can be summarized in a phrase, “like dissolves like” or “like mixes with
like”. This means that polar substances will only be dissolved or mixed with polar
substances while nonpolar substances will be soluble or miscible with another
nonpolar substance.
Try the exercises below in order to assess how much you have understood the
solubility (and miscibility) rule of substances in relation to their polarity.
Which of the following substances below will most likely mix with each other?
What chemistry concept did you used in answering the question above? If you
answered polarity of molecules, then you are on the right track. Great job! Benzene
and chloroform are both nonpolar compounds while water and vinegar are both
polar compounds, thus they are miscible to each other. However, the rest is a
combination of polar and nonpolar molecules and therefore will not mix and
instead will form two layers even if shaken or carefully stirred.
From the previous module, you learned the intramolecular forces of attraction, the
attractive force that binds atoms together. In this module, you will learn another
type of attractive force, the intermolecular forces of attraction (IMFA) which exists
between molecules.
89
In this lesson, we will not discuss IMFA in so much detail because it will be tackled
next module. We will just focus on the following salient features of IMFA and its
effect on the physical properties of covalent compounds:
1. There are several types of IMFA and below they are arranged from
STRONGEST to WEAKEST.
Ion-dipole → H-bonding→ dipole-dipole→dipole-induced dipole→
London forces of attraction
2. The strength of IMFA greatly affects the physical properties of
substances such as boiling point, melting point, vapor pressure, surface
tension, etc.
Before we move further, try to perform the exercise below to test your ability to
analyze concepts and principles that you have learned from the discussion.
How well did you perform in this exercise? Continue reading for you to find out the
correct answers for this activity.
From the above discussion you learned that there are several types of IMFA and
their relative strength as compared to other types. Strong intermolecular forces
tend to yield solids and liquids while weak intermolecular forces favor formation of
gases.
Table 1 shows the comparison of the various types of IMFA while table 2 shows the
physical properties of polar and nonpolar molecules as affected by the type of IMFA
present.

for nonpolar molecules
and noble gases
Table 2. General Properties of polar and nonpolar molecules
B. Melting point: temperature at which solid becomes liquid. At this point, the
solid and liquid phases exist in equilibrium.
In the simplest sense, boiling point, melting point, viscosity and surface tension
increase as the strength of intermolecular forces increases. On the other hand,
vapor pressure and volatility decrease with increasing strength of IMFA. London
dispersion forces increase as the molecular mass of a substance increases.

Answer Key

What I have Learned
1. Distinguish intramolecular forces of attraction and intermolecular forces of
attraction.
Answer: Intramolecular forces of attraction exist within a molecule. Ionic,
covalent and metallic bonds constitute the intramolecular forces of
attraction. On the other hand, intermolecular forces of attraction are forces of
attraction between molecules. Ion-dipole, H-bond, dipole-dipole and London
forces are examples of intermolecular forces of attraction.
2. In your own words, explain the Solubility Rule.
Answer: Solubility rule states that “like dissolves like.” This means that
polar solutes are soluble (miscible) only to polar solvents while nonpolar
solutes are only soluble (miscible) to nonpolar solvents. Intramolecular
forces exist between atoms within a molecule. Ionic, covalent and
metallic bonds constitute the intramolecular forces

What I Can Do
A. Using the concept of bond polarity and solubility, explain why water (H 2O)
and vinegar are miscible, but vinegar and oil are immiscible.
Possible answer: Water and vinegar are both polar substances therefore
they are miscible to each other. On the other hand, vinegar is polar while
oil is a nonpolar substance, therefore they will not mix.
B. Using the concept of intermolecular forces of attraction, explain why butter
melts at room temperature but solidifies when refrigerated.
Possible answer: Butter is composed of complex mixture of fatty acids held
together by a weak attractive van der Waals interaction called London
forces. The physical change of melting requires heat that disrupts the
London forces of attraction between fatty acids. As the amount of heat
increases, more London forces are disrupted and fats begin to vibrate,
rotate and move freely. On the other hand, when you placed the butter
inside the freezer, the temperature decreases and more London forces gets
assembled between fatty acids thus butter becomes solid.
What I have Learned
3. Compare and contrast polar and non-polar molecules based on its
physical properties.
Answer:
Polar molecules Nonpolar molecules
• IMFA type: H-bonding • IMFA type: London
and dipole-dipole dispersion
• exist as solids or liquids • exist as gases at room
at room temperature temperature
• High boiling point • Low boiling point
• High melting point • Low melting point
• High surface tension • Low surface tension
• Low vapor pressure • High vapor pressure
• Low volatility • High volatility
• Soluble in water • Insoluble in water
4. What relationship can you derive between the strength of IMFA
and the physical properties of covalent molecules?
Answer: Boiling point, melting point, viscosity and surface tension
increase with increasing strength of IMFA. Vapor pressure
increases with decreasing strength of IMFA. Therefore, BP, MP, V
and ST are directly proportional to the strength of IMFA while VP
is inversely proportional to the strength of IMFA.
100
What I Can Do
C. Explain the importance polarity of molecules to biological
processes such as in the structure of proteins and phospholipids.
Possible answer: Proteins are macromolecules having polar and
nonpolar ends which are essential for life processes to occur. It can form
a long chain and it also has the ability to bend to form various shapes.
The shape of proteins is affected by attraction and repulsion among its
polar and nonpolar groups. Once its shape has been altered or modified,
it can no longer perform its basic function. Phospholipids, on the other
hand, are present in the cell membrane. It has a hydrophilic (water-
loving) end and hydrophobic (water-fearing) end. When placed in water,
it forms a micelle wherein its hydrophilic part has a close contact with
water while its hydrophobic part is oriented inward. In this way, the cell
membrane can perform its function of being selectively permeable
membrane effectively.

Lesson
Types of Intermolecular
1 Forces
Atoms in molecules and ionic substances are attracted to each other either by
sharing or complete transfer of electrons. These attractive forces keep the
molecules intact.
But, how do molecules or substances stay together and exhibit properties that are
unique to them? This is known as bulk properties.
In this lesson, you will learn how the different forces of attraction known as
intermolecular forces keep substances together. You will also be able to identify the
intermolecular forces present between and among substances, thus their bulk
properties can be predicted.
What’s In
This simple activity will help you recall what you understood about Lewis electron
dot structure and polarity of molecules. The polarity of substances will guide you in
identifying the intermolecular forces present between and among molecules.

116
What is It
There are three general types of intermolecular forces (IMF), namely, van
der Waals forces, ion-dipole interaction, and H-bonding.
Van der Waals forces, after the Dutch chemist Johannes van der Waals
(1837-1923) consist of dipole-dipole interaction, dipole-induced dipole
interaction, and dispersion forces. Dipole-dipole attraction is present among
polar molecules. Through constant movement, the charges of the molecules align
in such a way that the positive (+) end of one molecule is attracted to the negative
(-) end of the other molecule. This happens due to the shift of electron density
towards the more electronegative element in the molecule resulting to (+) and (-)
ends. The measure of this electron shift is known as dipole moment, represented
by crossed arrow, .
117
Ion-dipole interaction results from the attraction either between a cation
(+) or an anion (-) with permanent polar molecules. The ions will be attracted to
the opposite charges present in the dipole resulting to this type of attraction.
With the presence of an ion (cation or anion), the charged ends of polar
molecules will be attracted to the dipole. This is true in the case of Na + and
formaldehyde. The positive sodium ion will be attracted to the partially-negative
oxygen in formaldehyde, resulting to an ion-dipole interaction.
In both NH3 and H2O, the hydrogen atoms are bonded to more
electronegative atoms, nitrogen and oxygen, respectively. This permits them to
form H-bonds with other molecules with the same condition. Thus, H-bond is
present between NH3 and H2O.
In all of the examples above, London dispersion forces are also present.

Lesson
Effects of Intermolecular
1 Forces on the Properties of
Substances
The properties of matter can be seen from either the sub-microscopic or
macroscopic level. The sub-microscopic level includes the atoms, molecules, and
ions which we cannot see. The macroscopic level shows how the bulk properties are
exhibited by matter. These properties include surface tension, viscosity, boiling,
melting, and freezing points, and solubility. Intermolecular forces play a very
important role to determine how substances behave at the macroscopic level.
In this lesson, you will learn how the different forces of attraction bring about the
bulk properties exhibited by substances. This lesson will help you understand why
a certain substance behaves differently from others.
What’s In
This simple activity will help you recall what you understood about the types of
intermolecular forces present in each substance.

What is It
This section gives brief and thorough explanation on how intermolecular forces
affect the bulk properties of matter, namely surface tension, viscosity, boiling,
melting, and freezing points, and solubility.
Activity 1:
The properties of substances as viewed on the macroscopic level can be explained
by the types of intermolecular forces present between and among substances.
These bulk properties can be predicted through an analysis of the interplay of
intermolecular forces in each substance.
The chart below tells us of the relative strengths of intermolecular forces. This
can be used as reference when the IMF is being related to the properties of
substances.
Ion-dipole Strongest
H-bonding
Dipole-dipole
Dipole-induced dipole
142
Properties of substances affected by intermolecular forces
Surface Tension
This is the amount of energy required to stretch the surface area of liquids (e.g.,
1 cm2). Liquids with high intermolecular forces tend to have high surface
tensions. When water is dropped on a waxy surface, it tends to form a round
bead to minimize the surface area that it occupies.
Water molecules exhibit cohesion while the attraction between water and the
sides of the glass tube is adhesion. If adhesion is stronger than cohesion, the
liquid is pulled upward.
The stronger the intermolecular forces possessed by molecules, the higher is the
surface tension of the substance.
143
Viscosity
The strength of intermolecular forces affects the ease with which substances
flow. Liquids that have high intermolecular forces are highly viscous. Also, the
presence of strong H-bonds in some liquids makes these substances highly
viscous. The LEDS of glycerol below shows three (3) OH - groups that can
participate in H-bonding whereas water has only one OH- group to form H-
bonding. Glycerol is more viscous than water.
Glycerol
Water
144
Boiling Point and Melting Point
Boiling point depends on the equilibrium vapor pressure exerted by the liquid or
solid above the liquid or the solid. This means that the rate of vaporization is equal
to the rate of condensation of the substance in a closed container. Vapor pressure
also varies with temperature. The graph below shows the effect of temperature on
the vapor pressure of water.
Source: https://www.chem.purdue.edu/gchelp/liquids/vpress.html
At 100OC, the vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure of 1.00 atm.
Boiling occurs at this point, where the vapor pressure of water is equal to the
pressure of the atmosphere.
There are substances that boil at a lower temperature and some at a higher
temperature. These temperatures depend on the vapor pressure exerted by the
liquids or solids. Vapor pressure, on the other hand, depends on the intermolecular
forces present in the substances. When the intermolecular forces are strong, the
vapor pressure is low.
As a consequence, boiling will occur at a higher temperature because more energy
is needed to break the intermolecular bonds for the substance to change into
vapor. Water, for example, exhibits strong H-bonds such that vaporization needs
more energy to change the liquid to vapor.
London dispersion forces predominate in methane, CH4. These are the weakest
forces of attraction among molecules. It needs a little energy to break the bonds
such that methane changes to vapor easily. As a consequence, more vapor are
released in which vapor pressure will eventually equal to atmospheric pressure.
Boiling then will occur. This explains why water has a higher boiling point than
methane.
145
This condition is also true for melting point. The ease with which bond breaks
affects the melting points of substances. The greater intermolecular forces there are
among molecules, the higher is their melting point.
The strength of dispersion forces also depends on the size of the molecules of the
substance or the number of electrons in the molecules of the substance. The ease
with which the electron distribution is distorted explains the amount of dispersion
forces that a substance exhibits. The distortion of the electron distribution is
known as polarizability.
The greater the polarizability of the electron distribution the greater are the
dispersion forces. When the dispersion forces are high, the boiling and melting
points are also high.
Br2 and F2 are both diatomic gases. They are also both nonpolar, but Br 2 is a bigger
molecule than F2. The polarizability of Br2 is greater than F2 so it has greater
dispersion forces. This explains why Br2 has a higher boiling point than F2. Greater
amount of energy is needed to overcome the big dispersion forces in Br 2 than in F2.
Solubility
The rule “like dissolves like” applies to solubility. This means that the kind of
substances being dissolved should exhibit the same properties or should be
compatible for them to form solutions. The polarity of molecules is an important
factor for substances to dissolve in certain molecules. Highly polar molecules will
dissolve substances that have dipoles. The negatively-charged particles will be
attracted to the positively-charged particles of the involved substances. This
attraction will subsist in the solutions.
146
Nonpolar substances, on the other hand will also dissolve nonpolar substances.
Intermolecular forces, such as dispersion forces, will prevail to maintain the
dissolution of substances.
Ammonia (NH3) and methyl fluoride (CH3F) are both polar but the ability of NH3
to form H-bonds qualifies it for higher boiling and melting points than CH3F. At
the same time, H-bonding also enables NH3 to be more soluble in water than
CH3F.
Phosphorus pentachloride (PCL5) and phosphorus pentabromide (PBr5) have the
same molecular shape and polarity. What matters here is the size of the molecule
when comparing the properties of these substances. Bromine contains more
electrons than chlorine. This makes PBr5 bigger and heavier. In this case,
dispersion forces are greater in PBr5 so it has higher boiling and melting points
than PCL5. Since these two substances are both nonpolar, then they are not
soluble in water.
Pentane (C5H12) and isopentane (C5H12) both contain the same number of C and
H atoms in the formula. However, their molecular structures are different. Below
are the LEDS of the two substances.
147
Pentane has an extended structure while isopentane has a compact structure.
Extended structures provide more opportunities for interactions than compact
structures. Extended molecules have stronger intermolecular forces than the
compact structures. As such the boiling point of pentane is higher than that of
isopentane. It is also true for their melting points. Both molecules are nonpolar
so they are not soluble in water.

Isopentane

What’s New
158
1. The properties influenced by intermolecular forces are surface tension,
viscosity, boiling, melting, and freezing points, and solubility.
2. LDF < dipole-induced dipole < dipole – dipole < H-bonding < ion – dipole
3. Steps or considerations to take to determine the effects of IMF to the
properties of matter.
a. Determine first whether the substance is polar or nonpolar.
b. If the substance is polar, then dipole-dipole forces are present. If
the substance has H attached to O, N, F, then H-bonding can also form.
London dispersion forces are always present in all substances.
c. If the substance is nonpolar, then London dispersion forces are the
predominant intermolecular forces among the molecules.
d. If the substance is ionic then ion-dipole forces of attraction will
prevail.
e. Determine the polarity of substances with the same number of
atoms and molecular geometry. If they are identical, then the mass of the
molecule will tell which between the two substances has greater
intermolecular forces.
f. Determination whether the structure of the molecule is extended or
compact will also tell which one has the greater intermolecular forces.
g. The strength of the predominating intermolecular forces will be the
gauge for predicting the physical properties of matter.
h. Remember that greater IMF will result to higher boiling, melting,
and freezing points. Solubility will depend on the type of molecules. “Like
dissolve likes” is the rule in the dissolution process.
What Have I Learned
159
a. The prevailing IMF in HF is H-bonding while in HCl is
dipole-dipole forces. H-bonding is stronger than dipole-dipole
interactions so greater amount of energy is needed to break the
bonds of HF than the bonds in HCl. This results to higher boiling
point of HF.
b. Both have dipole-dipole and London dispersion forces of
attraction. Both have the same number of atoms in the molecule
and molecular geometry. Thus, the basis will be the masses of the
molecules. Since the mass of CHBr3 is greater than the mass of
CHCl3, then the London dispersion forces is greater than in CHCl3.
It needs greater amount of energy to break the bonds in CHBr 3 than
in CHCl3, thus CHBr3 has a higher boiling point than CHCl3.
c. Br2 is nonpolar while ICl is polar. London dispersion forces
prevail in Br2 while dipole-dipole forces in ICl. It’s harder to break
the dipole-dipole bonds than LDF so more energy is required to
break the bonds resulting to higher boiling point of ICL.

What is It
Monomer – a molecule that can react with other molecule to form very
large molecules or polymers
Hormones – special chemical messengers that are created by the endocrine gland
Enzymes – proteins which make the biochemical reaction occus in faster rate
Biological Macromolecules
1. Carbohydrates
The word carbohydrate may be broken down to carbon and hydrate, and this
is due to the fact that most carbohydrates follow the formula Cn(H2O)n. Another term
for carbohydrate is saccharide. Carbohydrates are classified either as simple or
complex. Simple sugars are monosaccharide and disaccharides. Complex sugars
are polysaccharides.
Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy in the human body. The
different saccharides that humans eat are converted to glucose which can be readily
used by the body. The excess carbohydrates taken into the body is converted to
glycogen that is stored in the liver and in muscles.
175
Monosaccharide (one saccharide)
Carbohydrates
Monomer: saccharides
176
Did you know that?
Marathon runners, tri-athletes, and other runners consume carbohydrates
for weeks leading up to a big event. They call it “carbo-loading”. What’s the
point?
As the athletes consume massive amounts of starch and pasta, the energy begins
to store up in their body, saving itself for use during the event.
2. Lipids or Fats
Lipids or fats are important nutrients in your body but eating too much
unhealthy fats such as saturated fats and trans fats can lead to heart disease and
obesity. Lipids also serve other functions such as material for cell membrane,
insulation to maintain body temperature, aid in digestion, and as signal molecules.
Fat and oil are the most common examples of lipids. They are under
triglycerides because they are composed of glycerol and three fatty acids.
Fat refers to solid triglyceride usually from animal sources such as meat, milk,
butter, margarine, eggs, and cheese. Oil refers to liquid triglycerides from plant
sources. Examples are olive oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, and soybean oil. Animal fats
contain high percentages of saturated fatty acids while plant oils are mostly
unsaturated fatty acids.
Lipids
They are soluble (dissolve) in oil but are insoluble (don’t dissolve)
in water.
177
3. Proteins
Proteins
They are made from carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur.
Proteins are made up of amino acids combined through a dehydration link
called a peptide bond.
Monomer: amino acid
178
4. Nucleic Acids
Nucleic acids play an essential role in the storage, transfer, and expression
of genetic information. Nucleic acid was discovered by a 24-year old Swiss physician
named Friedrich Miescher in 1868. He was puzzled that an unknown substance in
white blood cells did not resemble carbohydrates, proteins, or lipids. He was able to
isolate the substance from the nucleus and initially called it nuclein. He eventually
was able to break down nuclein into protein and nucleic acids. He found out that
nucleic acids contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
The most common examples of nucleic acids are DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid)
and RNA (ribonucleic acid). DNA is a nucleic acid that carries the genetic code of
organisms. It is fondly termed as the blueprint of life. RNA, on another hand, carries
the information from the DNA to the cellular factories for the synthesis of proteins
called ribosome. If carbohydrates are composed of saccharide units and proteins of
amino acids, nucleic acids are composed of nucleotides. Nucleic acids are also
known as polynucleotides.
Nucleic Acids
They are made from carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus.
Monomer: nucleotide
Function: DNA carries the genetic code of organisms. RNA, carries the
information from the DNA to ribosomes to produce proteins.

Lesson
1 Collision Theory
Chemical reactions have been a part of this world ever since everything began. From
Big bang to the present day, everything happening around us has something to do
with chemical reactions and chemical processes. Chemical reactions are commonly
observed in our daily lives such as in cooking, eating, cleaning and in processes like
respiration, corrosion and fermentation. Even how our body lives and grows are all
but some of the many chemical reactions that take place, although you may not
recognize them. This is the reason we need to understand how chemical processes
take place, be it naturally occurring or not.
This lesson will help enhance your understanding about how chemical reaction
occurs and what are the different factors affecting chemical reaction.

What’s New
Picture Analysis
When we talk about reactions in science, what does that make you think of?
__________________________________________
__________________________________________
What is It
2. Substance or particles must come into contact or collide in the correct orientation
(facing the correct way).
201
The collision theory states that reacting substances must come into contact (collide)
with enough activation energy, and in the correct orientation (facing the correct way),
so that their electron shells can rearrange to form the products of the reaction.
Therefore, any factor which changes the frequency or energy of the collisions will
change the rate of the reaction.
As shown on the picture, the diatomic Nitrogen gas reacts with diatomic Oxygen gas
to yield two molecules of Nitrogen Oxide. The shared atoms form a bond by
completing the valence shells of both atoms.
A chemical reaction does not take place if the collision between molecules does not
have sufficient energy to break the bonds in the reactants and if the molecules are
not properly oriented.
Figure 1 Figure 2
202
As shown in figure 2, no reaction can take place between two particles if they are far
apart. To form new bonds, atoms must come in contact with each other and have
correct relative orientations so that the correct bonds are broken, atoms transfer to
the correct positions (see Figure 1).
When two particles collide, sometimes a chemical reaction can occur, which means
the bonds between two or more particles are broken and reformed, creating one or
more new substances. The substances or particles that enter and is changed in the
chemical reaction are called reactants and the substances that are formed are called
products.
The reactants (left part of the equation) are carbon dioxide, water, and light while the
products (right side of the equation) are sugar and oxygen. But for a chemical
reaction to occur, several things must happen:
1. The particles must come into contact with one another or collide.
2. When they collide, the particles must be lined by correctly so that the right parts
of the atoms or molecules are exposed. If they are not oriented correctly, no
chemical reaction will take place.
3. The particles must collide with enough energy to break their chemical bonds. The
amount of energy that must be available for a reaction to occur is referred to as
the activation energy.
The reaction rate of a chemical reaction is a measurement of the increase in the
concentration of a product or the decrease in the concentration of a reactants as the
reaction proceeds over time.
Keep in mind that not all reactions occur at the same speed. Some are very slow
while others are fast.
203
The rate of reaction also depends on the type of molecules that combine. If there
are low concentrations (does it refer to the terms in boldface in the previous
statement? Type od molecule and concentration are not related to each other, maybe
the number of molecules of an element or compound, the reaction will be slower.
Lesson
Factors Affecting the Rate
2 of Reaction
1. Activation Energy
The activation energy refers to the minimum energy required for a reaction to take
place. When a collision provides energy equal to or greater than the activation energy,
a product can form. On the other hand, if the energy of the particles is less than the
activation energy, the collision may not effective, and they just could bounce off each
other unchanged.
The figure above shows a man trying to push a rock over the cliff. For the man to
push the rock, he needs to have enough energy. If the man does not have enough
energy, the rock will not move down the cliff. This energy needed for the man to push
the rock over the cliff represents the activation energy.
Can you think of another example to show how activation energy works?

Temperature- Hot water - 1; Tap water -2; Cold water - 3
Concentration-the particles on the left side has more spaces between them so there is less
collision between particles
Concentration- When there is a greater number of solute/particles, there is a greater
chance of collision causing the increase rate of reaction.

What’s More Activity 1.2 (continuation)
Effects of Particle Size
1. Powdered Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) dissolves faster than a lump of CaCO3.
When particle size decreases, the total surface area exposed to reacting particles
increases thus increasing the speed of chemical reaction. The smaller the size of the
reacting particles, the faster the rate of reaction.

Additional Activities
In hot tea, the lump of sugar dissolves faster because of the temperature.
Reaction rate is increased with increase in temperature making the particles
collide faster, gaining more energy. Granulated sugar increases the dissolving rate
because more particles are exposed to water.

Notes to the Teacher
A Word of Caution!
Now suppose a tunnel is cut through the mountain. Many more people will
now manage to get from one valley to the other by this easier route. It could
be said that the tunnel route has a lower activation energy than going over
the mountain, but the mountain itself is not lowered. The tunnel has
provided an alternative route but has not lowered the original one. The
original mountain is still there, and some people still choose to climb it. In
chemical terms, if particles collide with enough energy, they can still react
in exactly the same way as if the catalyst was not there; it is simply that
the majority of particles will react via the easier catalyzed route.

What a happy ending! They are very lucky for having friends like Sarah and Juan.
They act like catalyst in their relationship. In chemistry, it is any substance that
increases the rate of reaction without itself being consumed. One good example are
enzymes that are naturally occurring catalyst responsible for essential biochemical
reactions.
So, apples go brown when their flesh reacts with air. In the pictures below, which
apple will go brown the quickest? Why?

The Effect of a Catalyst on Rate of Reaction
This part explains how adding a catalyst affects the rate of reaction. It assumes
familiarity with basic concepts in the collision theory of reaction rates, and with the
Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution of molecular energies in a gas. A catalyst is a
substance which speeds up a reaction, but is chemically unchanged at its end. When
the reaction has finished, the mass of catalyst is the same as at the beginning.
Several examples of catalyzed reactions and their respective catalysts are given
below:
Reaction Catalyst
Decomposition of hydrogen peroxide manganese(IV) oxide, MnO2
Nitration of benzene concentrated sulfuric acid
Manufacture of ammonia by the Haber iron
Process
Conversion of SO2 into SO3 during the vanadium(V) oxide, V2O5
Contact Process to make sulfuric acid
Hydrogenation of a C=C double bond nickel
Collisions only result in a reaction if the particles collide with a certain minimum
energy called the activation energy for the reaction. The position of activation energy
can be determined on a Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution:
Number of
particles
Activation energy
Only those particles represented by the area to the right of the activation energy will
react when they collide. The majority do not have enough energy, and will simply
bounce apart.
231
To increase the rate of a reaction, the number of successful collisions must be
increased. One possible way of doing this is to provide an alternative way for the
reaction to happen which has a lower activation energy. In other words, to move the
activation energy to the left on the graph:

Catalyst is one of the factors that can affect the rate of reaction along with

What’s In
Chemical reaction deals with the process that involves rearrangement of the
molecular or ionic structure of a substance, as opposed to a change in physical form
or a nuclear reaction.
A chemical equation shows the starting compound(s)—the reactants—on the left and
the final compound(s)—the products—on the right, separated by an arrow. In a
balanced chemical equation, the numbers of atoms of each element and the total
charge are the same on both sides of the equation.
For example:
The figure shows the combustion of methane, CH4 (a hydrocarbon) that produces
carbon dioxide and water.
251
What’s New
Key Terms
Stoichiometry is a branch of chemistry that establishes mole and mass
relationships between reactants and/or products in a chemical reaction to
determine desired quantitative data.
Excess reagent is a reactant that is not used up when the reaction is finished.
Limiting reagent is a reagent that is completely used up in a chemical
reaction.
In this activity, you will be introduced to simple stoichiometry.
Stoichiometry includes calculations that allow us to find the
amounts of chemicals involved in each reaction.
2 Gc + 1 M 1 Sm
Where: Gc = graham cracker
M = marshmallow Sm = s’more
1. Notice that to make this recipe you have three pieces (reactant) to the left of the
arrow and one piece (product) to the right. This is supposed to represent a balanced
equation, so how can 3 = 1?
It’s because the pieces combine to form one whole. This would represent a synthesis
reaction.
2. If each student is to make one s’more, and I have 20 students, how much of each
ingredient will I need? Explain your logic – using a chemical equation.
40 20 20
Let's look at a simplified view of the s'mores example. She starts out with six graham
crackers and four marshmallows.
252
Let’s ask Professor F:
Since she has four marshmallows (a greater supply than what is needed), the graham
crackers will limit the number of s'mores she can make.
Alternatively, you could look at the number of graham crackers that would be
needed.
Since there are only six graham crackers (a supply less than
what is needed), the graham crackers will limit the number of
s'mores she can make.
You can see that the conclusion reached was the same
regardless of the ingredient (or reactant) chosen.
We have five hot dogs and four hot dog buns. How many complete hot
dogs sandwiches can we make?
253
What is It
The first and most important step for any stoichiometric calculation is
to start with a balanced reaction. Since our calculations use ratios
based on the stoichiometric coefficients, our answers will be incorrect
if the stoichiometric coefficients are not right.
1. Write down your given equation. For this example, you will use:
C3H8 + O2 --> H2O + CO2
This reaction occurs when propane (C 3H8) is burned in the presence of oxygen
to produce water and carbon dioxide.
2. Write down the number of atoms per element. Do this for each side of the
equation. Look at the subscripts next to each atom to find the number of
atoms in the equation. When writing it out, it's a good idea to connect it back
to the original equation, noting how each element appears.
Reactant Product
Carbon (C) 3 1
Oxygen (O) 2 3
Hydrogen (H) 8 2
3. Save hydrogen and oxygen for last, as they are often on both sides. Hydrogen
and oxygen are both common in molecules, so it's likely that you'll have them
on both sides of your equation. It's best to balance them last.
You'll need to recount your atoms before balancing the hydrogen and
oxygen, as you'll likely need to use coefficients to balance the other
atoms in the equation.
5. Use a coefficient to balance the single carbon atom. Add a coefficient to the
single carbon atom on the right of the equation to balance it with the 3 carbon
atoms on the left of the equation.
C3H8 + O2 --> H2O + 3CO2
254
The coefficient 3 in front of carbon on the
right side indicates 3 carbon atoms just as
the subscript 3 on the left side indicates 3
carbon atoms.
2Al(s)+3Cl2(g)→2AlCl3(s)
255
First, let’s check if our reaction is balanced: we have two Al atoms and six Cl atoms
on both sides of the arrow, so we are good to go! In this problem, we know the mass
of both reactants, and we would like to know which one will get used up first. In the
first step, we will convert everything to moles, and then we will use the stoichiometric
ratio from the balanced reaction to find the limiting reagent.
Now that our known quantities are in moles, there are multiple ways to
find the limiting reagent. We will show three methods here. They all give
the same answer, so you can choose your favorite. All three methods use the
stoichiometric ratio in slightly different ways.
METHOD 1: The first method is to calculate the actual molar ratio of the reactants,
and then compare the actual ratio to the stoichiometric ratio from the balanced
reaction.
This means we need at least 0.67 moles of Al for every mole of Cl 2. Since our actual
ratio is greater than our stoichiometric ratio, we have more Al than we need to react
with each mole of Cl2. Therefore, Cl2is our limiting reagent and Al is in excess.
METHOD 2: A more guess-and-check way you can figure out the limiting
reactant is by choosing one of the reactants—it doesn’t matter which
one—and pretending that it is the limiting reagent. We can then calculate
the moles of the other reagent needed based on the moles of our pretend
256
limiting reagent. For example, if we pretend that Al is the limiting reagent, we would
calculate the required amount of Cl2 as follows:
The more moles of reaction you have, the more times the reaction can occur.
Therefore, the reactant with fewer moles of reaction is the limiting reagent since the
reaction can be carried out fewer times with that reactant. We see that this method
also Cl2 is our limiting reagent because it makes 2.00×10−2mol-rxn, which is less
than 5.20×10−2mol-rxn, from Al.
What is the theoretical yield of AlCl3 that the reaction can produce when we
start with 4.25 g of Cl2, our limiting reagent?
We can use the moles of limiting reagent plus the stoichiometric ratios from our
balanced reaction to calculate the theoretical yield. The coefficients from the
257
balanced reaction tell us that for every three mol of Cl2we should make two mol of
AlCl3. Therefore, the theoretical yield, in moles, is:
The theoretical yield is usually expected to have units of mass, so we can convert
moles of AlCl3to grams using the molecular weight:
Percent Yield
The theoretical yield is the maximum amount of product you would
expect from a reaction based on the amount of limiting reagent. In
practice, however, chemists don’t always obtain the maximum yield for many
reasons. When running a reaction in the lab, loss of product often occurs during
purification or isolation steps. You might even decide it is worth losing 10% of your
product during an extra purification step because it is more important to have
extremely pure product—as opposed to having a larger amount of less pure product.
Despite how nice and tidy a balanced reaction appears, reactants can
also react in unexpected and undesirable ways such as doing an
entirely different reaction—sometimes called a side reaction—to give
products that we don't want. Your actual yield may change based on
factors such as the relative stability of reactants and products, the
purity of the chemicals used, or the humidity on a given day. In some
cases, you might be left with all starting materials and no products
after your reaction. The possibilities are endless!
258
Since chemists know that the actual yield might be less than the theoretical yield,
we report the actual yield using percent yield, which tells us what percentage of the
theoretical yield we obtained. This ratio can be very valuable to other people who
might try your reaction. The percent yield is determined using the following equation:
Since percent yield is a percentage, you would normally expect to have a percent
yield between zero and 100. If your percent yield is greater than 100, that probably
means you calculated or measured something incorrectly.
First, we check to see if the reaction is balanced. It looks like we have equal numbers
of all atoms on both sides, so now we can move on to calculating the theoretical yield.
The calculation is simple if you know the actual and theoretical yields. All you need
is substitute the values into the formula:
percent yield = 15 g / 19 g x 100%
Usually, you have to calculate the theoretical yield based on the balanced equation.
In this equation, the reactant and the product have a 1:1 mole ratio, so if you know
the amount of reactant, you know the theoretical yield is the same value in moles
(not grams!). You take the number of grams of reactant you have, convert it to moles,
and then use this number of moles to find out how many grams of product to expect.
259
What’s More
Directions: Answer the following questions below. Use three significant figures in
your computation and final answer.
The limiting reagent is the reactant that gets used up first during
the reaction and also determines how much product can be made.

nifty methods in Example 1.

3. Based on the diagram, what can you say about the sources of energy from the
different regions in the Philippines?
What is It
The type of primary fuel or primary energy flow that provides a power plant its
primary energy varies. The most common fuels are coal, natural gas,
and uranium (nuclear power). A substantially used primary energy flow for
electricity generation is hydroelectricity (water). Other flows that are used to generate
electricity include wind, solar, geothermal and tidal.
Electrical sources can be broken down to two major groups: renewable and
non-renewable sources. Renewable source is produced from sources that do not
deplete or can be replenished within a human's life time. The most common examples
include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower. This is in contrast to
non-renewable source which is a natural resource that cannot be readily replaced by
natural means at a quick enough pace to keep up with consumption.
279
I. Renewable Sources
1. Geothermal
Geothermal power utilizes the heat energy from the earth’s crust. This heat
energy heats up rocks which, in turn, heats up nearby groundwater. The Malitbog
Geothermal Power Station is a 232.5 MW geothermal power plant or an earth steam
turbined electric generator--the world's largest geothermal power plant under one
roof located in Malitbog, Kananga, Leyte, Philippines. The power plant is one of four
operating in the Leyte Geothermal Production Field.
Geothermal energy is produced by the heat of Earth's molten interior.
This energy is harnessed to generate electricity when water is injected deep
underground and returns as steam (or hot water, which is later converted to steam)
to drive a turbine on an electric power generator that produces electricity.
Geothermal energy is less of an environmental hazard compared to fossil fuels
though it still has some emissions of carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and sulfur
dioxide.

2. Hydroelectric
281
3. Wind power
While an electric fan uses electricity to produce wind, a wind turbine uses
wind to produce electricity. A wind turbine can generate megawatts of power,
depending on the weather conditions. In fact, an indicator for a potential wind farm
site is the presence of flagging trees or trees that are bent like how a flag would look
like due to strong winds. Because of the vast land area a wind farm occupies, unused
areas can be co-located with agricultural crops or even a solar farm.
Wind has been used in centuries to move ships and pump water. Wind
turbines are installed in strategic locations to harness the mechanical energy from
wind. Some of the most recent developments are the Bangui Wind Farm,
Burgos Wind Farm, and Caparispisan Wind Farm in Ilocos Norte, the Wind Energy
Power System in Oriental Mindoro, San Lorenzo Wind Farm in Guimaras,
Nabas Wind Farm in Aklan and Pililla Wind Farm in Rizal.
4. Solar Cells
282
a physical and chemical phenomenon. It is a form of photoelectric cell, defined as a
device whose electrical characteristics, such as current, voltage, or resistance, vary
when exposed to light. Individual solar cell devices are often the electrical building
blocks of photovoltaic modules, known colloquially as solar panels.

Solar energy is also known as “The People’s Power,” referring to the easy
deployment of solar panels and the introduction of “community solar gardens” where
energy is shared among owners.
Solar energy is abundant, requires low maintenance, and is environmentally-
friendly.
Emissions associated with the manufacture of solar panels are present but
very minimal compared to pollution caused by burning fossil fuels.
Two of the harmful emissions from the manufacture of solar panels are
nitrogen trifluoride and sulfur hexafluoride.
Both are potent greenhouse gases.
Some disadvantages of solar energy are: it is expensive, requires rare metals,
and requires a good amount of space. Thankfully, the technology is
continuously improving.
283
5. Biomass
284
II. Non-renewable Sources
1. Fossil fuels
Coal, oil and gas are fossil fuels, which have been formed over the last 600 million
years. Coal is the fossilized remains of huge forests which covered many parts of the
world in prehistoric times and hence contains biomass. As the trees and plants died,
they were covered in layers of silt and sand and, under great pressure, gradually
became formed into coal deposits.
Coal is the world’s most abundant fossil fuel. It is relatively inexpensive and
is readily available.
The formation of fossil fuels is due to a series of geologic processes where the
remains of organic life are accumulated in the ocean bottom and are buried
to eventually become part of the geosphere.
They are buried to depths having high temperature and pressure where they
are converted to oil, natural gas, or coal.
In the Philippines, around 69% of our electricity is derived from fossil fuels
(coal, oil, natural gas, biomass).
In the world, around 75% of our energy is generated by combustion of fossil
fuels.
285
Power plants burn fossil fuels and the heat generated during this process is
used to turn water into steam and this turns the turbines.
2. Electrochemical (batteries)
A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical
energy. The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one
material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit. The flow of electrons
provides an electric current that can be used to do work.
There are three main components of a battery: two terminals made of different
chemicals (typically metals), the anode and the cathode; and the electrolyte, which
separates these terminals. The electrolyte is a chemical medium that allows the flow
of electrical charge between the cathode and anode.
Batteries, compared to other sources, have low intensity but they are
commonly used since they are portable and efficient.

Home is our haven especially when we are so tired in our whole day work in school
or office. In this time of pandemic, the cleanliness of our home is very important.
Good housekeeping requires high standard of cleanliness or the absence of dirt and
its sanitation as well, or the absence of disease-causing organisms like bacteria. All
housekeeping tasks need the use of the right tool for the right job. No single product
can provide optimum performance on all surfaces and all soils. It is not surprising
that many different household cleaners are available in the market. They are
formulated to clean efficiently and conveniently in many different situations found
at home.

What is It
There are lots of cleaning products we use daily in our home, office, or school. These
cleaning products play an important vital role in order to make our home spick and
span. They also help in safely and effectively removing dirt, germs and other
contaminants. They can also prevent the spread of infectious diseases and control
allergens, such as dust and mold, in order to keep us healthy. Cleaning products
also enable us to care for our homes and possessions.
There are different kinds of cleaning products. These are laundry detergents,
bleaches, dishwashing products and other household cleaners. Active ingredients
are found in different household cleaning products. They may give different side
effects to human. They can give either positive or negative side effects to us. So before
using these cleaning materials be sure to read first the instructions. Don’t forget to
follow all precautionary and safety measures before using them. Here are some of
the active ingredients found in different cleaning materials we use at home.
307
used as detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, degreasers and emollients in many
lines of commercially available products and industrial practices.
3. Amine Oxide
An amine oxide, also known as amine-N-oxide and N-oxide, is a chemical
compound that contains the functional group R3N+–O−, an N–O bond with three
additional hydrogen and/or hydrocarbon side chains attached to Long-chain alkyl
amine oxides are used as nonionic surfactants and foam stabilizers.
Amine oxides are highly polar molecules and have a polarity close to that of
quaternary ammonium salts. Small amine oxides are very hydrophilic and have an
excellent water solubility and a very poor solubility in most organic solvents.
4. Ammonia
Ammonia is a colorless, soluble alkali gas that occurs naturally in the
environment. It is a chemical containing one nitrogen and three hydrogen atoms
bonded together. It was traditionally used in many household cleaners, though today
it's still found in glass cleaner, all-purpose cleaners, and smelling salts. When used
in cleaning compounds, it’s called “household ammonia.”
Ammonia fumes are powerful irritant, potentially harming your skin, eyes,
nose, lungs and throat. When found in oven cleaners and window cleaning
formulations, it is an irritant to the mucous membranes. When working with
ammonia, wearing heavy-duty gloves, goggles, and a face mask are smart
precautions to protect your health.
5. Sodium hypochlorite
Sodium hypochlorite also known as bleach is another alkali disinfectant.
Bleach works by oxidizing or breaking down the molecular bonds of stains and
germs.
Another useful but dangerous cleaner it also has strong corrosive properties
that may do serious damage to the human body. Ammonia and bleach are a
308
particularly dangerous combination, creating potentially deadly gases when mixed.
Never store these two chemicals in the same place.
Bleach in the bottle is generally a five percent solution. Toxic chlorine gas can
be formed if bleach is mixed with acids, such as bowl cleaners.
6. Ethanol
Ethanol is a natural byproduct of plant fermentation and can be produced
through the hydration of ethylene. It mixes easily with water and many organic
compounds, and makes an effective solvent for use in paints, lacquers and varnish,
as well as personal care and household cleaning products.
Ethanol is highly flammable and should not be used near open flames.
Ethanol inhalation can cause coughing or headaches.
7. Phenol
Phenol, any of a family of organic compounds characterized by a hydroxyl
(―OH) group attached to a carbon atom that is part of an aromatic ring. Besides
serving as the generic name for the entire family, the term phenol is also the specific
name for its simplest member, monohydroxybenzene (C 6H5OH), also known as
benzenol, or carbolic acid.
Phenols are similar to alcohols but form stronger hydrogen bonds. They are
more soluble in water than are alcohols and have higher boiling points. Phenols
occur either as colorless liquids or white solids at room temperature and may be
highly toxic and caustic.
8. Quaternary ammonium
The quaternary ammonium compounds (or quats) are a family of low-level
disinfectants (according to Spaulding) with most quats being derived from
benzalkonium. Quats are reacted to provide a variety of chain lengths and molecular
structures so that the mix of quats used in the disinfectant provide a wider range of
efficacy than a single chain.
Quats are generally used to disinfect countertops, toilets and other high touch
environmental surfaces and floors. Quaternary ammonium compounds are cationic
disinfectants. This means the quats chain carries a positive (plus) charge on one end
of the molecule; many soils and soaps/detergents carry an anionic or negative
(minus) charge.
309
Quats can also bind with, or be absorbed by, materials and fibers including
cotton (e.g., cleaning rags and mops). Quats generally take 3-10 minutes to disinfect
and should be used with cleaning tools that are tested to be compatible.
9. Sodium percarbonate.
Sodium percarbonate is a powder that releases hydrogen peroxide, and
very concentrated. It is a granulated powder which can be nice for scrubbing stains
and stuck-on-gunk off dishes. Scouring powder is made from hydrogen peroxide. It
can be made into a paste, too, and used on tile grout and tough stains.
In using this product, follow and read the instructions carefully. Be very
careful in handling all household cleaning products.

Lesson
Use of the Other Ingredients
1 in Cleaning Agents
In cooking, there are many interpretations of some dishes. But when one or two
ingredients are lacking, the food that you will eat will not be as delicious as what you
expect. The same with the cleaning products. It is not only the active ingredient that
plays an important role in cleaning agent but also the other ingredients.

Keep on reminding the learners to take extra careful in handling
different cleaning products. They must choose wisely the products
they will buy. They should purchase those eco-friendly products.

What is It
With the different household cleaning products that we have in the market today, we
don’t know which the best is to use in our household We assume that these cleaning
products are safe to use. In fact, many popular household cleaners are dangerously
toxic. They contain different ingredients that are harmful to our health Together with
the active ingredient there are other ingredients found in cleaning agents. Let’s look
at their uses.
1.Builders
Builders are one of the important group of ingredients that help make cleaning
products better. Builders give the surfactants a helping hand. They are found in
several different kinds of products, but you need less of them than you do
surfactants.
Builders help make the surfactant more powerful by reacting with stuff found in tap
water. Water in your home may contain minerals (such as calcium and magnesium).
The more minerals in your water, the “harder” the water is. It is not bad to have
minerals in water, but it can leave white marks on surfaces (like dishes). When
calcium and magnesium are present in water, they will stop surfactants from being
able to do their job of removing soil.
Builders help prevent this by keeping the minerals out of the way of the surfactants.
This leaves the surfactants alone to focus on the soil.
2. Solvents
Solvents are chemicals that help ingredients stay mixed and gives cleaning products
the right thickness, so they are easy to use. In addition, solvents can help to prevent
liquid products from freezing in cold climates.
Without solvents, a product will be very thick. But for other products, we want the
liquid to pour out of the bottle. When we add solvents, we decrease the viscosity,
meaning the liquid will move faster when poured out of the bottle. The solvent also
helps to makes sure we do not end up with a separated solution like when you have
pulp at the bottom of your glass of orange juice.
332
3. Enzymes
Enzymes are powerful stain removing ingredients. Their power is to break down
stains just like the enzymes in our digestive system help break down the food we eat.
Enzymes are not living organisms but are created by naturally occurring
microorganisms, like bacteria and fungi. In the laboratory, we use carefully selected
microorganisms and allow them to grow in a very controlled environment. As they
grow, they produce the desired enzymes.
4. Fragrances
Fragrances are a group of ingredients that provide the cleaning product with a
pleasant smell. They are not found in every product, and typically a very small
amount can make a large difference in smell. In many cases, the fragrance is the
driving factor for why someone decided to buy a specific product.
5.Preservatives
Just like it is important to prevent food from spoiling, cleaning products need to be
preserved as well. Adding a small amount of a preservative protects the product from
microorganisms.
6. pH Adjusters
Every cleaning product needs to be “balanced” to work well and to be safe for your
skin. In order to do this, chemists use pH adjusters to make sure the product is
balanced and safe for you to use. The amount used depends on the other ingredients
in the formula.
pH is a measure of how acidic (like lemon juice) or basic (like baking soda) a solution
is. One way to measure this is by using the pH scale. The pH scale is read from 0 to
14 and tells us if a solution is acidic or basic. Pure water has a pH of 7, which means
it’s neutral.
333
pH adjusters are used in cleaning products to raise or lower the pH of a solution,
making it either more basic or acidic.
Chemists make sure that the product is effective while balancing safety, in part, by
making sure the pH will not be harmful if it touches your skin.
If the pH is less than 7, then the solution is acidic. Lemon juice has a pH around 2.
Our skin is slightly acidic, with a pH on average near 5. If our skin comes into contact
with a chemical that is too acidic it can cause itching or discomfort.
Adjusting the pH helps to keep the product working well as it gets old. It also affects
how the product cleans. For example, each surfactant has a different pH level in
which they are the most powerful. Therefore, a chemist may want to adjust the pH
to that level.
If the pH is greater than 7, then the solution is basic. For example, baking soda has
a pH of around 9. If a solution is too alkaline (basic), it can also irritate your skin.
7.Dye
There are several other ingredients used in cleaning products that help create a
unique experience. For example, dye can be used to give a product color.
8. Thickener
Thickeners give soap the proper viscosity (thickness), making sure it can still flow
out of a bottle. Can you imagine trying to wash your hands with a soap that feels like
water? It would run right off your skin!
9. Foam Enhancer
Foam Enhancers help create suds or bubbles. While not necessary for effective
cleaning, many people feel bubbles show that a product is working.
334
Antibacterial or disinfecting ingredients can be included in a cleaning or hand
hygiene product or used separately after cleaning. Their use provides a further
reduction in germs on our hands or surfaces in our homes. This reduction of germs
helps to prevent people from getting sick when commonly used surfaces, such as
door handles, or our hands are cleansed using these products. In environments with
sick individuals or where food is prepared, this is especially important.
