Chapter 1: Chemistry: The Study of Change Matter Measurements International System of units (SI) Mass and Weight Volume Density Temperature scales
Introduction Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes it undergoes Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass Substance is a form of matter that has a definite composition and distinct properties Chemical and Physical properties Physical properties can be measured without changing the composition of substance unlike chemical properties
States of matter
International System of Units (SI)
Scientific notation Power of 10 is any of the integer powers of the number ten; in other words, ten multiplied by itself a certain number of times 100 = 1x10 2 1000 = 1x10 3 1.000.000 = 1x10 6 0.1 = 1x10-1 0.01 = 1x10-2 0.001 = 1x10-3
Example 1.29 Express the following numbers in scientific notation a) 0.000000027 b) 356 c) 47.764 d) 0.096

Measurement Mass is a measure of amount of matter in object SI unit of mass is kilogram (kg) 1 kg = 1000 g = 1 x 10 3 g Mass is constant and is independent on location Weight The force that gravity exerts on an object Weight depends on location of object
Measurement Volume Volume (V) = Width x Length x Height SI unit of volume is cubic meter (m 3 ) 1 cm 3 = (1 x 10-2 m) 3 = 1 x 10-6 m 3 1 dm 3 = (1 x 10-1 m) 3 = 1 x 10-3 m 3 1 L = 1000 ml = 1000 cm 3 1 L = 1 dm 3 1 ml = 1 cm 3
Examples Convert the followings to m 3 A. 2.5x10 4 cm 3 B. 1.20x 10-3 dm 3 Convert the followings to ml A. 800 L B. 3.09 cm 3
Measurement Density (d) = Mass (m) Volume (v) SI derived unit of density is kg/m 3 1 g/cm 3 = 1 g/ml = 1000 kg/m 3 1 g/ml = 1 10-3 g/l
Example 1.1 1. A piece of gold ingot with a mass of 301 g has a volume of 15.6 cm 3. Calculate the density of gold d = m V d = 301 = 19.3 g/cm 3 15.6 2. A piece of platinum metal with a density of 21.5 g/cm 3 has a volume of 4.49 cm 3. What is the mass? m = d x V = 21.5 x 4.49 = 96.5 g
Example 1.2 1.The density of Hg is 13.6 g/ml. Calculate the mass of 5.50 ml of liquid. 2. The density of sulfuric acid is 1.41 g/ml. Calculate the mass of 242 ml.
Measurement Temperature 273 K = 0 C 373 K = 100 C 32 F = 0 C 212 F = 100 C
Equations: transformation between units of temperature 9 F = x C + 32 5 C = 5 x ( F 32) 9 K = C + 273.15
Example 1.3 1. A certain solder has a melting point of 224 C. What is the melting point in F? F = 9 x C + 32 5 F = 9 x 224 + 32 = 435 F 5 2. Helium has a boiling point of -452 F. Convert F to C. 5 C = x ( F 32) 9 5 C = x (-452 32) = -269 C 9 3. Mercury melts at -38.9 C. convert it to kelvin K = C + 273.15 = -38.9 + 273.15 = 234.3 k
