Intelligent facts of Chemistry

LAB SAFETY

Aprons/Lab Coats. Safety goggles. Caution with chemicals. Safety tips.

Lab Coats/Safety Goggles. Lab Coats/Aprons: These are useful for a

few reasons. The main reasons these are useful is because they keep your clothes clean if you ever spill anything like chemicals during a lab.

Safety Goggles: Safety Goggles are always a first thing you do ever when your in chemistry, well before you do a lab at least. Safety goggles are the main importance to doing labs they keep your eyes safe from chemicals and other fumes and if you wear the goggles your protected from those chemicals. That could seriously harm some people.

Caution With Chemicals Chemicals and dealing with them is

sometimes very hazardous. Though for some elements you can handle and there very unstable and can become very dangerous. That is why you look for labels of what element your handling and what happens if it takes in too much heat ( As if the room temp/ was too hot.) So you can protect yourself from causing a terrible and possible explosion.

Tools to use in a lab Items in a lab that you may want to consider

using during a lab may be to start using tongs. Tongs are good for carrying hot objects. Also Filter Paper from keeping different chemicals mixing and making a bad situation. A big one is “Common Sense” Don’t do something you know you shouldn’t do or something you know wont work but you do it anyway. Also Lab guides these help guide you through a lab and could also save your life if you try and do the lab without reading the lab guide first.

Safety Tips Don’t Drink or eat Anywhere near the lab

because for one, you could contaminate your food/drink and maybe get very sick.

Always Wear Shoes during a lab you don’t want nothing big and hitting your foot and hurting you as well as a chemical falling on your foot and burning you. So just wear shoes.

HISTORY OF THE ATOM Discovery -Who found? Process in which the atom gained

detail. -The people that found the discoveries?

Discovery Democritus, was the first to develop the

idea about atoms. Though asked a question if you could break matter in half how many times could u break matter before you couldn’t go any farther. Though Greek philosophers didn’t believe him so his theory couldn’t become fact because he didn’t have enough detail or support to the fact of atoms.

Process in which the atom gained detail.

John Dalton found something Democritus couldn’t the atom had a positive charge in the middle making it stable and for things to bounce of it to show that there was something there. From this point different philosophers found different details of the atom such as: that it had a nucleus and that is had a electron cloud around it with a positive core and a negative outer core.

STATES OF MATTER

LiquidSolidGasPlasma

Solid-Liquids Solids- Solids are tightly packed together

making them hard therefore making it a solid, though solids are mainly pure substances with compounds in there core. Solids will always have a definite Shape, and a Definite Volume.

Liquids-Liquids are an in-between state of matter. They can be found in between the solid and gas states. They don't have to be made up of the same compounds. If you have a variety of materials in a liquid, it is called a solution. Liquids usually have no definite shape, Though it has a definite volume.

Gases-Plasmas Gases-gases are really spread out and

the atoms and molecules are full of energy. They are bouncing around constantly. Gases Don’t have a definite shape nor does it have a definite volume.

Plasmas- Plasmas are a lot like gases, but the atoms are different because they are made up of free electrons and ions of the element.
