Elements and Compounds

Elements are substances made from one kind of atom and cannot be chemically broken down into simpler substances.
Elements take part in chemical reactions in which new substances are made, often involving an energy change.
In chemical reactions, atoms combine in fixed ratios to give full outer shells of electrons, producing compounds.
Compounds are made from two or more elements chemically bonded together.
The properties of a compound can be quite different from the properties of the elements that form it (e.g., sodium chloride vs sodium and chlorine).

Ball-and-stick models of common elements and compounds

Mixtures

Mixtures contain more than one element or compound in no fixed ratio.
The components of a mixture are interspersed but not chemically combined.
The components of a mixture retain their own characteristic properties (e.g., oxygen in air still supports combustion).
A homogeneous mixture has uniform composition and properties throughout (e.g., air, bronze).
A heterogeneous mixture has non-uniform composition, so its properties are not the same throughout (e.g., concrete, orange juice with pulp).
It is often possible to see the separate components in a heterogeneous mixture, but not in a homogeneous mixture.

Separating Mixtures: Solubility and Filtration

Separation techniques take advantage of differences in physical properties such as boiling point, solubility, magnetism, or density.
Solvation is the process where solvent particles surround and attract solute particles; in water it is called hydration.
Filtration separates an undissolved (insoluble) solid from a liquid or solution using filter paper.
In filtration, the liquid that passes through is the filtrate and the solid left behind is the residue.
Filtration works because solid particles are too large to pass through the pores in the filter paper.
Vacuum filtration can be used for very fine solids that clog filter paper under gravity filtration; centrifugation can also separate solid–liquid mixtures.

Filtration apparatus

Separating Mixtures: Crystallisation and Recrystallisation

Crystallisation separates a dissolved solid from a solution when the solid is more soluble in hot solvent than cold.
To crystallise, heat the solution gently to evaporate some solvent, then allow it to cool slowly until crystals form.
Do not boil to dryness, as this may prevent crystal formation; cool slowly to allow larger crystals to grow.
Recrystallisation purifies an impure solid by dissolving it in a minimum amount of hot solvent and allowing it to crystallise as the solution cools.
Impurities remain in the solvent when cooled, while the purified product crystallises.
Büchner filtration under reduced pressure is faster and more effective than gravity filtration for collecting crystals.

Crystallisation by evaporation and cooling

Separating Mixtures: Distillation and Chromatography

Simple distillation separates a solvent from a solute or a pure liquid from a mixture, based on differences in boiling point.
In simple distillation, the liquid with the lowest boiling point evaporates first, then its vapour is condensed and collected as the distillate.
Fractional distillation separates two or more miscible liquids with similar boiling points using a fractionating column (e.g., ethanol and water, crude oil).
Paper chromatography separates dissolved substances based on differences in solubility and adsorption to the paper.
In chromatography, substances more soluble in the solvent travel further; those more strongly adsorbed to the paper move more slowly.
The pattern of separated spots is called a chromatogram.
Magnetic separation uses differences in magnetic properties (e.g., removing iron filings from sulfur).

Paper chromatography

The Three States of Matter

Solids have a fixed shape and volume; particles are closely packed in a regular, ordered pattern and can only vibrate in place.
Liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container; particles are close together but randomly arranged and can slide past one another.
Gases have no fixed shape or volume; particles are widely spaced, randomly arranged, and move quickly in all directions.
Particle motion in gases causes collisions, which generate pressure.
Density decreases from solid to liquid to gas due to increasing particle separation.
Particle energy increases from solid to liquid to gas.

Particle arrangements in solids, liquids and gases

Changes of State

State changes are physical changes and are reversible; they involve energy transfer but do not alter the chemical identity of the substance.
Melting: solid → liquid; Freezing: liquid → solid.
Vaporisation: liquid → gas, including boiling (throughout the liquid at a specific temperature) and evaporation (only at the surface, below boiling point).
Condensation: gas → liquid; Sublimation: solid → gas; Deposition: gas → solid.
Energy is always required to overcome intermolecular forces, so melting, vaporisation, and sublimation are endothermic.
Energy is released when particles come closer, so freezing, condensation, and deposition are exothermic.
State symbols in equations: (s) solid, (l) liquid, (g) gas, (aq) aqueous.

Changes of state

Average Kinetic Energy and Temperature

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy (Ek) of the particles in a substance.
The Kelvin (K) is the SI unit of temperature; temperature in Kelvin is directly proportional to average kinetic energy.
The higher the temperature, the faster the particles move on average.
At the same temperature, all gases have the same average kinetic energy, but lighter gases move faster and heavier gases move slower.
Convert Celsius to Kelvin: T(K) = T(°C) + 273.15; Kelvin to Celsius: T(°C) = T(K) − 273.15.
0 K (absolute zero) is the temperature at which particles have no kinetic energy.

Interpreting Heating Curves

During heating of a solid, particles vibrate more as they gain kinetic energy, so temperature increases.
During melting (solid → liquid), energy is used to overcome intermolecular forces, not to increase kinetic energy, so temperature remains constant.
During heating of a liquid, particles move more freely and gain kinetic energy, so temperature rises again.
During boiling (liquid → gas), energy goes into overcoming intermolecular forces, so temperature remains constant.
After boiling, the substance is a gas; particles move rapidly and have the highest average kinetic energy, so temperature increases again.
Observations: melting loses shape but volume remains constant; boiling forms bubbles throughout; condensation forms droplets on cooler surfaces; freezing regains rigid shape; sublimation solid disappears directly into vapour.
