Ch.2 What’s the Matter?

 

Stuff around us is made of matter (mass and volume)

It is organized using official categories:

states- solid(s), liquid(l), gas(g), aqueous(aq), gels, plasma,

 

 Classification of Matter will be done using the official terms:

(See Sheet B1)

What kind of substance is   ….

Air- a mixture of elements(N2, O2) and compounds(CO2, H2O)

 

Separating mixtures is done using separation methods such as:

 

a.  distillation – boiling off the solvent

b.  paper chromatography

c.  filter or distillation

d.  magnet

e.  dissolving and filtering

 

 

 

Remember P.T.

Metals, Non-metals,

Atoms vs ions

Covalent vs Ionic Compounds

Two or more

 non-metals:

CO2 , CO, NO2

NF3

C6H12O6 (glucose)

CH4

CCl4

NH3

Metal + Nonmetal

 

CoCl2 , H2O

Fe(ClO)2

NaCl,  MgI2

KBr

 

 

 

 

 Molecular Substances J  L

(see page B3,B4)

 

 

- the compound is made of separate molecules (one or more atom)

- Who? 

the non-metals with each other

diatomic elements

noble gases

P4, S8, Cn, Sin

 

 

 

NOMENCLATURE

 

- THE OFFICIAL METHOD FOR NAMING COMPOUNDS

 USING IUPAC RULES.

 (International Union Pure and Applied Chemists)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Category I

- The molecular compounds with “common names” because they are so common.

Ozone, water ammonia, methane, sucrose,methanol, ethanol , hydrogen peroxide 

 

 

Glucose  C6H12O6

 

Sulphuric Acid            H2SO­4                                  

Hydrochloric Acid       HCl

Nitric Acid                  HNO3

 

 

 

Category 2

Molecular substances as identified by compounds formed between two non-metals.

These compounds do not follow the rules of combining capacity or valence but form molecules depending on the conditions.

 

We just have to know how to count the atoms and use latin prefixes to name the compound.

 

 

 

1 –mono

2 – di

3 – tri

4 – tetra

5 – penta

6 – hexa

7 – hepta

8 – octa

9 – nona

10 – deca

 

Examples:

 

CO  -  don’t use “mono” on the first element only the second

          with Oxygen drop one of the “O’s”

 

P2O4  -   Diphosphorous tetraoxide
