What is Chemistry?What is Chemistry?
Chemists try to discover the relationships Chemists try to discover the relationships between the particle structure of matter and between the particle structure of matter and the properties of matter.the properties of matter.
ChemistryChemistry is the science that seeks to is the science that seeks to understand what matter does by studying understand what matter does by studying what atoms and molecules do.what atoms and molecules do.

The The Scientific MethodScientific MethodA process for understanding nature A process for understanding nature by observing nature and the way it by observing nature and the way it behaves, and by conducting behaves, and by conducting experiments to test ideas.experiments to test ideas.

ObservationObservationA way of acquiring information A way of acquiring information about natureabout natureSome observations are simple Some observations are simple descriptions of characteristics or descriptions of characteristics or behavior of matterbehavior of matter– ““The soda pop is a liquid with a brown The soda pop is a liquid with a brown
color and a sweet taste. Bubbles are color and a sweet taste. Bubbles are seen floating up through it.”seen floating up through it.”
Some observations are Some observations are quantitativequantitative– “ “A 240 mL serving of soda pop A 240 mL serving of soda pop
contains 27 g of sugar.”contains 27 g of sugar.”

HypothesisHypothesis
A tentative interpretation or explanation A tentative interpretation or explanation of your observationsof your observations– ““the sweet taste of soda pop is due to the the sweet taste of soda pop is due to the
presence of sugar”presence of sugar”
A good hypothesis is one that can be A good hypothesis is one that can be tested to be proved wrong!tested to be proved wrong!– FalsifiableFalsifiable– One test may invalidate or support your One test may invalidate or support your
hypothesishypothesis

ExperimentsExperiments
Tests of hypotheses, laws or theoriesTests of hypotheses, laws or theories
Can you think of a way to test whether the Can you think of a way to test whether the sweet taste of soda pop is due to the presence sweet taste of soda pop is due to the presence of sugar?of sugar?
Results either Validate (confirm) or Invalidate Results either Validate (confirm) or Invalidate (deny) your ideas(deny) your ideas– Invalidate = Discard or ModifyInvalidate = Discard or Modify
Many times experiments invalidate only parts of the Many times experiments invalidate only parts of the hypothesis or theory, in which case the idea is modifiedhypothesis or theory, in which case the idea is modified
– Validate Validate ≠ Proof your idea will always hold≠ Proof your idea will always hold
