CHEMISTRY
What is an element?
An element is a fundamental
substance that can’t be chemically
changed or broken down into
anything simpler.
How many presently known
elements?
115 elements
90 natural elements
25 artificially elements produced
using high energy accelerators
How do chemists represent an element?
By using one-, two-, or three-letter
symbols of an element
Examples:
H for hydrogen
N for nitrogen
Al for aluminum
Mg for magnesium
Uun for ununnilium
aluminum magnesium
The elements are tabulated in a table called periodic
table as shown in Figure 1.1.

The periodic table consists of
7 horizontal rows called periods and
18 vertical columns called groups
The international standard calls for
numbering the columns or groups from 1
to 18 going from left to right.
The US system uses Greek number and
capital letters
The elements are tabulated based on
their chemical properties
There are actually 32 groups in the
periodic table rather than 18, but to
make the table fit manageably on a
page, the 14 elements following
lanthanum (the lanthanides) and the
14 elements following actinium (the
actinides) are pulled out and shown
below the others. These groups are not
numbered.
Groups 1, 2, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18 are called
main or representative groups.
Groups 3 to 12 are called transition metal
groups.
The others are called lanthanides and actinides
groups.
The elements in the lanthanides group follow
lanthanum.
The elements in the actinides group follow
actinium. The elements in the lanthanides and
actinides groups are called inner transition
elements.

The elements in the periodic table
are often divided into three mayor
classes:
Nonmetal,
Metal
Semimetal or metalloid

What is compound?
Matter
Heterogeneous Homogeneous
(nonuniform (uniform
Elements Compounds composition) composition)
(can not be (can be
decomposed) decomposed
by chemical
reaction) Physically
separable into

chemically to
form
Chemically
separable into
Heterogeneous mixture:
A mixture with a composition that varies
from point to point
Examples:
mayonnaise
chocolate chip cookies
concrete
Homogeneous mixture:
A mixture with a composition that doesn’t
vary from point to point
Homogeneous mixture is also called
solution
Examples:
Mixture of water and alcohol
Mixture of table salt and water
Mixture of sugar and water
Separation of mixtures
Mixture of iron and sulfur may be
separated by using a magnet
Mixture of two liquids with different boiling points such as
mixture of water and alcohol may be separated by distillation
Mixture of colored substances such as the components of a
green ink may be separated by column chromatography
Mixture of two crystalline substances
such as barium chromate, BaCrO4,
and strontium chromate, SrCrO4,
may be separated by fractional
crystallization.
Barium chromate is less soluble in
water than strontium chromate.
Barium chromate crystallizes before
strontium chromate.
Compounds can not be separated by
physical means; they can be separated by
chemical means which involve chemical
reactions.
Electrolysis
2H2O(l) 2H2(g) + O2(g)
Reaction of mercury (A) and oxygen gas gives
mercury(II) oxide (B). Heating of mercury(II)
oxide gives metallic mercury and oxygen gas (C)
Properties of Substances
Examples:
Mass
Volume
Properties can also be classified as
either physical or chemical,
depending on whether the property
involves a change in the chemical
makeup of substance
Physical properties:
Characteristics that do not involve a
change in a sample’s chemical
makeup
Example of physical properties:
Melting point and boiling point of
substance
Example:
Rusting of iron
Rusting of iron is a chemical property,
because iron combines with oxygen and
moisture from the air to give the new
substance
