SOME BASIC CONCEPT OF CHEMISTRY

Chemistry Study of matter


Applicati In Agriculture and Food: chemical fertilizers such as urea, calcium phosphate,
on of sodium nitrate, ammonium phosphate etc. protect the crops from insects and
chemistry harmful bacteria, by the use ‘ of certain effective insecticides, fungicides and
pesticides. preservatives has helped to preserve food products like jam, butter,
squashes etc. for longer periods.
Health and Sanitation: life-saving drugs such as Cisplatin and taxol have been
found to be very effective for cancer therapy and AZT (Azidothymidine) is used
for AIDS victims. Disinfectants such as phenol are used to kill the micro-
organisms present in drains, toilet, floors. A low concentration of chlorine i.e.,
0.2 to 0.4 parts per million (ppm) is used ’ for sterilization of water to make it
fit for drinking purposes.
Application in Industry: It has played an important role in developing many
industrially ^ manufactured fertilizers, alkalis, acids, salts, dyes, polymers,
drugs, soaps, detergents, metal alloys and other inorganic and organic
chemicals
Chemical in food:-Artificial Sweetening agent Sucralose,Suger free,
Preservation of food:-Oil,NaCl(Mutten),BHT,BHA
Matter Anything which has mass and occupies space is called matter.
Classificati There are two ways of classifying
on of the matter: (A) Physical (B)
matter Chemical classification
Physical classification :-
1.Solids: Matter having definite
volume and definite shape.The
particles are held very close to
each other in an orderly fashion
and there is not much freedom of
movement..
2. Liquids: Matter having definite
volume but not definite
shape.The particles are close to
each other but can move around.
3. Gases:The particles are far
apart as compared to those
present in solid or liquid states.
Their movement is easy and fast.
Chemical Classification:-
Pure substances: A single substance (or matter) which cannot be separated by
simple physical methods. (i) Elements (ii) Compounds
Elements: An element consists of only one type of particles. These particles
may be atoms or molecules.
For example, sodium, copper, silver, hydrogen, oxygen etc.
Compounds: pure substance containing two or more elements combined
together in a fixed proportion by weight and can be decomposed into these
elements by suitable chemical methods.
(i)Inorganic Compounds: These are compounds which are obtained from non-
living sources such as rocks and minerals. Examples are: Common salt,
marble, gypsum, washing soda etc.
(ii) Organic Compounds :-Compounds which are present in plants and animals.
All the organic compounds have been found to contain carbon as their essential
constituent. For example, carbohydrates, proteins, oils, fats etc.

SOME BASIC CONCEPT OF CHEMISTRY
Mixtures: The combination of two or more elements or compounds which are
not chemically combined together and may also be present in any proportion,
is called mixture. A few examples of mixtures are: milk, sea water, petrol, lime
water, paint glass, cement, wood etc.
Types of mixtures: (i) Homogeneous mixtures: Mixture having a uniform
composition throughout and there are no visible boundaries of separation
between the constituents.
For example: A mixture of sugar solution in water
(ii) Heterogeneous mixtures: Mixture which does not have uniform
composition throughout and has visible boundaries of separation between the
various constituents. The different constituents of a heterogeneous mixture can
be seen even with naked eye.
For example: When iron filings and sulphur powder are mixed together, the
mixture formed

Significant All non-zero digits are significant. For example, in 285 cm, there are three
Figures significant figures and in 0.25 mL, there are two significant figures.
Zeros preceding to first non-zero digit are not significant. Such zeros indicates
the position of decimal point. For example, 0.03 has one significant figure and
0.0052 has two significant figures.
Zeros between two non-zero digits are significant. Thus, 2.005 has four
significant figures.
Zeros at the end or right of a number are significant provided they are on the
right side of the decimal point. For example, 0.200 g has three significant
figures.
Counting numbers of objects. For example, 2 balls or 20 eggs have infinite

writing infinite number of zeros after placing a decimal.

Laws of The combination of elements to form compounds is governed by the following
Chemical five basic laws.
Combinati (i) Law of Conservation of Mass (ii) Law of Definite Proportions (iii) Law of
ons Multiple Proportions
(iv) Law of Gaseous Volume (Gay Lussa’s Law) (v) Avogadro’s Law
Law of (French chemist, A. Lavoisier) The law states: In all physical and chemical
Conservat changes, the total mass of the reactants is equal to that of the products. In
ion of other words, matter can neither be created nor destroyed.
Mass CaCO3 --> CaO + CO2
(100 gm) (56 gm) (44gm)
Exception:- Nuclear reaction (Small mass of reactant convert into energy)
Law of A pure chemical compound always consists of the same elements combined
Definite together in a fixed proportion by weight.For example, Carbon dioxide may be
Proportion formed in a number of ways but the ration of Carbon and Oxygen is always
s remian 3:8
(a)By burning of Coke Air:- C(s) + O2(g) ---> CO2(g)
(b)By decomposition of lime stone:- CaCO3 -→CaO + CO2
(c)By the action of dil HCl on washing soda:-Na2CO3 +2HCl→2NaCl+H2O+ CO2
Exception:-When molecule contain isotope of element C12O2 C14O2
Law of If two elements combine to form two or more compounds, the weight of one of
Multiple the elements which combines with a fixed weight of the other in these
Proportion compounds, bears simple whole number ratio by weight.For Example

Gay The law states that, under similar conditions of temperature and pressure,
Lussac’s whenever gases combine, they do so in volumes which bear simple whole

Mole
(i) A mole is the amount of a substance that contains as many entities (atoms, molecules or
Concept
other particles) as there are atoms in exactly 12g of the carbon - 12 isotope.

LOKESH SUREDIA KV ONGC MEHSANA 8758004957 Page 5 of 11


SOME BASIC CONCEPT OF CHEMISTRY
In order to determine this number precisely, the mass of a carbon-12 atom was
determined by a mass spectrometer and found to be equal to 1.992648 x 10-23g
Knowing that 1 mole of carbon weighs 12g, the number of atoms in it is equal to
:12 g/1.992648X10-23 =6.022X1023 atom
Moles=No of particle /NA(Avogadro No.)

Moles =Mass of substance/Gram atomic mass

Moles = Volume of gas/22.4 (at 1 atm pressure


and 273K temperature)

Moles = Volume of gas/22.7 (At 1 bar pressure


and 273K temperature)
If pressure and temperature is not given at NTP
Or STP Mole=PV/RT
amu Mass exactly equal to one-twelfth of the mass of one carbon - 12 atom. 1 amu
= 1.66056×10–24 g
Average It is the weighted average of atomic masses of naturally occurring isotopes of
Atomic an element.
Mass

Gram When numerical value of atomic mass of an element is expressed in grams


Atomic then the value becomes gram atomic mass.
Mas gram atomic mass = mass of 1 gram atom = mass of 1 mole atom
= mass of NA atoms = mass of 6.023 x 1023 atoms.
Ex. gram atomic mass of oxygen = mass of 1 g atom of oxygen = mass of 1 mol
atom of oxygen.
Molecular The number which indicates how many times the mass of one molecule of a
Mass substance is heavier in comparison to 1/12th part of the mass of an atom of
C12.It is the sum of atomic masses of the elements present in a molecule.
(CH4) = (12.011 u) + 4 (1.008 u) = 16.043 u.
Actual The mass of one atom or one molecule of a substance is called as actual
Mass mass.
Ex.(i)Actual mass of O2 = 32 amu = 32 x 1.67 x 10-24 g Actual mass
(ii)Actual mass of H2O = (2 + 16) amu = 18 x1.67 x10-24g = 2.99 x
10-23 g
Formula It is the sum of the average atomic masses of each atom represented in the
Mass chemical formula and is expressed in atomic mass units. The formula mass of a
covalent compound is also called the molecular mass.
