JABIR IBN HAYYAN (geber)- Father of chemistry
Chemistry- is the study of the properties of matter
and the changes it undergoes.
Matter-is anything that occupy space and has mass
Energy- is the ability to do work
Mixture- It is a combination of two or more
substances
Homogeneous- It is a combination of two or more
substances in which it is present in one (1) phase.
Heterogeneous- a compound’s composition is not
uniform or you can see two or more phase
Pure substances- Is a form of matter that has a
definite (constant) composition and distinct properties
Compounds- It is a combination of two or more
similar or different elements.
Element- is a substance that cannot be separated into
simpler substances by chemical means.
ACCURACY- Refers to the closeness of measurements
to the true value.
PRECISION- Refers to the closeness of measurements
with each other.
Chemistry has five (5) main branches:
*BIO CHEMISTRY- The study of life at the molecular
level and the processes associated with life.
*INORGANIC CHEMISTRY- The study of matter that
consists of all of the elements and compounds other
than carbon or organic compound.
*ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Is the study of matter that is
composed principally of carbon.
*ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY-Involves the analysis of
matter determine its composition (qualitative analysis)
and the quantity (quantitative analysis) of each kind of
matter that is present.
*PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY-It is the study of theoretical
aspects of the structure and changes of matter.
INTER-MOLECULAR FORCES OF ATTRACTION-forces of
attraction that exist between molecules or ions
4 Common IMFA
*Van Der Waals or London Dispersion Forces- 
Force that exists in ALL molecules, even nonpolar
atoms/ molecules
*Dipole-Dipole Interactions- Interaction between the
permanent dipole in polar molecules
*Hydrogen Bonding- Interaction between O-H, N-H
and F-H bonds
*Ion-dipole Interactions-Interaction between ION and
POLAR molecule
SOLUTIONS-A homogeneous mixture of 2 or more
substances in which the dispersed particles are
molecular or ionic in size
Solvent-Component in greatest amount
Solute-Component(s) in lesser amount(s)
TYPES OF SOLUTIONS Saturated
Solutions-A solution with the maximum amount
of solute dissolved
Unsaturated Solutions-A solution with LESS
THAN the maximum amount of solute dissolved
Supersaturated Solutions-An unstable solution
with MORE THAN the maximum amount of
solute dissolved
STOICHIOMETRY -the area of study that examines the
quantities of substance consumed and produced in
chemical reactions
Limiting Reagent The reactant that gets completely
consumed in a reaction;Determines the quantity of
products formed
Excess Reagent-The reactant that does not get
completely consumed;
Some is left over after a reaction
