  2. Chapter 10 The Periodic Law

  3. Chapter 10 Outline • Elements and compounds • Chemical change • Three classes of matter • The atomic theory • The periodic law • Construction and meaning of the periodic table of the elements • Atomic structure • Shells and subshells • Atomic structure explains the periodic table • Chemical bonds • Types of chemical bonds • Naming chemicals • Chemical equations

  4. To Start: A History Lesson In the beginning, all “chemists” were “alchemists” • Chemistry began with a search for a way to change ordinary metals into GOLD!! • Did it work?? NO!

  5. TWO BASIC TYPES OF ALTERATIONS • PHYSICAL CHANGE • Usually involves the REARRANGMENT of atoms or molecules • Examples: melting, freezing, etc. • CHEMICAL CHANGE • Alterations to the atoms or molecules themselves • Examples: loss or gain of an electron • This happens whenever a CHEMICAL BOND is formed or destroyed.

  6. Combining Elements • When two elements form a chemical bond, a substance with properties different than those of the two starting elements is formed • EXAMPLE • SODIUM • CHLORINE • When chemically bonded, they form SODIUM CHLORIDE • The physical and chemical properties of sodium chloride are DIFFERENT from either sodium or chlorine!

  7. The Work of the Alchemists • Alchemists could not turn ordinary elements to gold but their work led to the idea of ELEMENTS • Substances that could NOT be “broken down” into any other substance. • If there were only a limited number of ELEMENTS, then all the variations in matter that we see must be some combination of these … A VERY PROFOUND IDEA!

  8. Three Classes of Matter • Element • A substance that cannot be broken down into a simpler substance • Compounds • Two or more elements combined CHEMICALLY • Mixtures • A substance with a variable composition. It can be broken down by PHYSICAL means

  9. You Should Already Know… • The difference between ATOMS and MOLECULES • An “atom” is a particular element • There are a limited number • See the periodic table • A MOLECULE is a combination of two or more atoms • The atoms may be the same (O2) • Or different (H2O)

  10. Elements • The smallest piece of matter that retains the CHEMICAL PROPERTIES of the matter • There are over 100 elements identified • Most occur as solids • The most prevalent element in the universe is the simplest atom: HYDROGEN • On Earth, 96% of earth’s mass is comprised of only 4 elements: oxygen, silicon, iron and magnesium • In the human body: oxygen is the most abundant, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium and phosphorus.

  11. Classifying Matter • Compounds: chemical combinations of two or more elements (zinc sulfide, water) • Mixtures: combinations of elements • Heterogeneous mixture: A substance whose properties vary from one particle to the next (a mixture of zinc powder and sulfur powder without heating them) • Homogeneous mixture: components are mixed so that the mixture is uniform throughout (sea water)

  12. Powder of Zinc and Sulfur Heat + = Zinc Powder Zinc Sulfide Sulfur Powder

  13. Classification of Matter

  14. The Differences: Compound/Solution • Tests for determining whether two elements have combined chemically or simply mixed • Determine if boiling or freezing can separate the constituents. The change of state (solid, liquid, gas) occur at specific temperatures for elements and compounds but not for mixtures • Check the relative masses in different samples of the material. • The elements in a given compound are always present in exactly the same proportions. The mass ratio of the nitrogen and oxygen in air is 3.2:1=32:10 This mass ratio in nitric oxide is exactly 88:100

  15. Nitric Oxide compound • BUT

  16. Law of Definite Proportions • In a chemical compound, the proportions of each constituent element is fixed THE ELEMENTS THAT MAKE UP A COMPOUND ARE ALWAYS COMBINED IN THE SAME PROPORTIONS ACCORDING TO THEIR MASS

  17. Example: Water The law of definite proportions says in a water molecule, there are always TWO hydrogen atoms, and ONE oxygen atom… 36.04g           36.04g

  18. Building Blocks of Matter • The Ancient Greeks had a simple understanding of nature • They thought that EVERYTHING was made from only FOUR fundamental “ELEMENTS” Earth Wind Fire Water These were considered to be “basic particles” • Then John Dalton (1766-1844) proposed that the basic particles were atoms

  19. Dalton’s Idea • Dalton proposed that all atoms of each element were exactly the same, and that all other atoms were different • Dalton discovered the relative masses of the atoms of the elements known at the time • He was the first to understand that a chemical reaction was really a rearrangement of atoms, not the creation or destruction of atoms
