Definition of Chemistry

Science devoted to the study of matter. It is the study of substances in terms of

• Composition What is it made of?• Structure How is it put together?• Properties What characteristics does it

have?• Reactions How does it behave with

other substances?

Chemistry

Chemistry happens when• A car is started• Tarnish is removed from silver• Fertilizer is added to help

plants grow• Food is digested• Electricity is produced from

burning natural gas• Rust is formed on iron nails

Scientific Method: process used by

scientists to explain

observations in nature. Copyright © 2008 by Pearson Education, Inc.

Publishing as Benjamin Cummings

11

The scientific method involves: Observations• Facts obtained by observing and measuring

events in nature.

Hypothesis• A statement that explains the observations.

(educated guess)

Experiments• Procedures that test the hypothesis.

Theory • A model that describes how the observations

occur using experimental results.

12

Summary of the Scientific Method


13

Everyday Scientific Thinking

Observation: The sound from a CD in a CD player skips.

Hypothesis 1: The CD player is faulty.

Experiment 1: When I replace the CD with another one, the sound from this second CD is OK.

Hypothesis 2: The original CD has a defect.

Experiment 2: When I play the CD in another player, the sound still skips.

Theory: My experimental results indicate the original CD has a defect.

Scientific method State the problem (like a question) Hypothesis (suggest an answer to a problem) (If _ind var___ then _dep var___) Plan experiment Gather data Interpret data (look for patterns or trends) Conclusion, plan future work Publish results

Experiment

Way of testing a hypothesis Has an independent and a dependent variable Independent variable- you define it, causes a

change in another Dependent variable- changes in response to the

ind. Var. Control group - reference to find out if there

were any changes in the experimental groups. It has all the same elements except the Ind. Var

Tránsito de San Pedro wants to establish if the installation of radars will affect the average velocity of cars driving through Morones Prieto.

establish the problem (Will radars affect the velocity of cars?)

Present the hypothesis (If there are radars in specific locations then cars will decrease their speed)

Design the experiment (install radars in locations and measure speed with and without radars)

identify independent (radars in specific locations) dependent variable (speed of cars) state the control group. (locations without radars)

Carol is a soccer player. She told Mark that Adidas training shoes have a greater performance than Nike training shoes, in the soccer field.

a) establish the problemb) Present the hypothesisc) Design the experimentd) identify dependent and independent variable e) state the control group.

Chapter 2 Measurements

2.1

Units of Measurement


21

Measurement

You make a measurement

every time you• Measure your height. • Read your watch.• Take your temperature.• Weigh a cantaloupe.


22

Measurement

In a measurement

• A measuring tool is used to compare some dimension of an object to a standard.

• Of the thickness of the skin fold at the waist, calipers are used.


23

Stating a Measurement

In a measurement, a number is followed by a unit.

Observe the following examples of measurements:

Number Unit

35 m

0.25 L

225 kg

3.4 hr

24

The Metric System (SI)

The metric system or SI (international system) is

• A decimal system based on 10.

• Used in most of the world.

• Used everywhere by scientists.

25

Units in the Metric System

In the metric (SI) system, one unit is used for each

type of measurement:

Measurement Metric SI

length meter (m) meter (m)

volume liter (L) cubic meter (m3)

mass gram (g) kilogram (kg)

time second (s) second (s)

temperature Celsius (C) Kelvin (K)

30

For each of the following, indicate whether the unit describes 1) length, 2) mass, or 3) volume.

____ A. A bag of onions has a mass of 2.6 kg.

____ B. A person is 2.0 m tall.

____ C. A medication contains 0.50 g aspirin.

____ D. A bottle contains 1.5 L of water.

STEP 1 State the given and needed units.

STEP 2 Write a plan to convert the given unit to the

needed unit.

STEP 3 Write equalities/conversion factors that connect the units.

STEP 4 Set up problem with factors to cancel

units and calculate the answer.

Solution

38

• Often, two or more conversion factors are required to obtain the unit needed for the answer.

Unit 1 Unit 2 Unit 3

• Additional conversion factors can be placed in the setup to cancel each preceding unitGiven unit x factor 1 x factor 2 = needed unitUnit 1 x Unit 2 x Unit 3 = Unit 3

How many minutes are in 1.4 days?

Given unit: 1.4 days Needed unit: min

Plan: days hr min

Equalties: 1 day = 24 hr

1 hr = 60 min Set up problem: 1.4 days x 24 hr x 60 min = 2.0 x 103

1 day 1 hr

Example: Problem Solving

40

• Be sure to check your unit cancellation in the setup.

• The units in the conversion factors must cancel to give the correct unit for the answer.

What is wrong with the following setup?1.4 day x 1 day x 1 hr

24 hr 60 min

Units = day2/min is Not the needed unit

Units don’t cancel properly.

Osmium is a very dense metal. What is its

density in g/cm3 if 50.0 g of osmium has a

volume of 2.22 cm3?

1) 2.25 g/cm3

2) 22.5 g/cm3

3) 111 g/cm3

Learning Check

44

Given: mass = 50.0 g volume = 2.22 cm3

Plan: Write the density expression.

D = mass volume

Express mass in grams and volume in cm3

mass = 50.0 g volume = 2.22 cm3

Set up problem using mass and volume.D = 50.0 g = 22.522522 g/cm3

2.22 cm3

= 22.5 g/cm3

Solution

45

Volume by Displacement

• A solid completely submerged in water displaces its own volume of water.

• The volume of the solid is calculated from the volume difference.45.0 mL - 35.5 mL

= 9.5 mL = 9.5 cm3


46

Density Using Volume Displacement

The density of the object iscalculated from its mass andvolume. mass = 68.60 g = 7.2 g/cm3

volume 9.5 cm3


47

Sink or Float

• Ice floats in water because the density of ice is less than the density of water.

• Aluminum sinks because its density is greater than the density of water.
