Chemistry is defined as the branch of science which deals with the Composition
structure and properties of matter, the changes which take place in the matter
under different conditions and the laws which govern these changes.
Importance of Chemistry:
Matter refers to anything that occupies space and has mass. It is composed of
particles and exhibits physical and chemical properties.
Matter Can be classified based on:

Elements: An element is defined as a pure substance that contains only one kind
of atom. An element can neither be broken into simpler substances nor built
from simpler substances by any method.
Mixtures are not pure substances. A mixture may contain two or more
substances (elements or compounds) in any proportion.
The mixture shows the properties of its constituents. A mixture may be
separated into its constituents by physical methods.

Properties Of Matter
Physical Properties: Physical properties can be measured or observed without
changing the substance's identity or composition.
For example- density, volume, melting point & boiling point
Chemical Properties: The measurement or observation of chemical properties
requires a chemical change to occur.
For example- flammability, solubility, heat from combustion, radioactivity, types
of chemical bonds formed & acidity or basicity.

Matter
The International System of Units (SI) is a modernized metric system with seven
base units representing fundamental scientific quantities.
These seven base quantities form the foundation for all derived units in science,
ensuring uniformity and accuracy in measurements across various scientific
disciplines.
Fundamental Units: These are the basic units in the SI system, independent of
other units. They represent fundamental physical quantities.
Examples: Mass, Length, Time etc.
Derived Units: These are units derived from the fundamental units through
mathematical relationships. They are used to express complex physical
quantities.
Examples: Velocity, Force, Pressure etc.
Prefix In SI Unit
The prefixes in SI units are used to express large or small quantities of physical
measurements in a more convenient way. These prefixes represent powers of 10,
allowing for easier representation of both extremely large and extremely small
numbers.

Scientific Notation
Scientific Notation is a method of expressing very large or very small numbers
in a compact form.
Scientific notation is represented as: N x 10ⁿ
Steps to Convert a Number into Scientific Notation:
1. Move the decimal point to create a number between 1 and 10 (N).
2. Count the number of places the decimal point has moved:
Left shift: ⁿ is positive.
Right shift: ⁿ is negative.
3. Express the number as N x 10ⁿ

Significant Figures the video (Click Here)
Significant Figures are the digits in a measured or calculated quantity that are
meaningful in terms of accuracy and precision. They include all certain digits
plus one uncertain (estimated) digit. Rules for determining Significant Figures:
All non-zero digits are significant.
Ending zeros in the right of the decimal are significant figures.
All the zeros between two non-zeros digits are significant figures.
Initial zeros are not significant figures.
Exact numbers have an infinite number of significant figures.
When a number ends in zero(s) and zero is not to the right of the decimal,
such zeros may or may not be the significant figure.
The power of 10 is insignificant.

protons & neutrons.
Average atomic Mass: The average atomic mass of an element is the sum of the
masses of its isotopes, each multiplied by its natural abundance.
Molecular mass is the sum of the atomic masses of all atoms in a molecule. It is
measured in atomic mass units (u)
Formula Mass: The formula mass of a substance is defined as the sum of the
atomic masses of constituent atoms in an ionic compound. This is generally used
for ionic compounds which do not contain discrete molecules, but ions as their
constituent units.
A mole is the amount of substance that contains the same number of particles
(atoms, molecules, ions, or electrons) as there are atoms in 12 grams of pure

The word 'atom' has been derived from the Greek word 'a-tomio' which means
'uncut-able' or 'non-divisible'. Atom was discovered by John Dalton. He proposed
the famous atomic theory in 1807. Atoms are fundamental unit of matter. The
existence of different kind of matter is the due to the different atoms constructing
them
Structure of an Atom
The arrangement of electrons and
protons in an atom many scientist to
proposed various atomic models.
In mid 1850s, many scientist mainly FARADAY begin to study electrical discharge in
partially evacuated tubes known as a cathode ray discharge tube. A cathode Ray tubes is
made up of Glass containing two thin pieces of metal called electrodes, sealed in it. The
electrical discharge through the gases could be observed only at very low pressure and at
very high voltage. The pressure of different gases the could be adjusted by evacuation of the
glass tubes. When a sufficiently High Voltage is applied around the electrodes, current starts
flowing through a stream of a particles a moving in the tube from the negative electrons to
the positive electrons. These were called cathode rays
It depends upon-
• Magnitude of the negative charge e/me = 1.758820 x 10 1" Ckg-¹
• Mass of the particle
• Strength of electric/ magnetic field

rays Called "Canal Rays" because they passed
through holes (channels or canals) drilled through
the negative electrode.

In 1897, the English scientist J.J. Thomson provided the finst hint that an
atom is made of even smaller particles. He proposed a model of the atom that
is sometimes called the "Plum Pudding" model.
Atoms were made from a positively changed sphere with negatively changed
electrons embedded in it, like raisins in a pudding.
The negative and positive changes are equal in magnitude. So, the atom as a
whole is electrically stable.

Incomplete octet: The octet rule doesn't apply to molecules where the central
atom has fewer than eight electrons. This is especially true for elements with
fewer than four electrons in their valence shell. For example, in LiCl, BeH2,
and BCl3, the central atom has fewer than eight electrons.
Odd-electron molecules: The octet rule doesn't apply to molecules with an odd
number of electrons, such as nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2).
Expanded octet: Elements in the third period and beyond of the periodic table
have 3d orbitals that can be used for bonding. This means that the outermost
shell can accommodate more than eight electrons, which is called an expanded
octet.
Hydrogen and helium: Hydrogen and helium are exceptions to the octet rule
because they have the lowest energy when they have two electrons in their
valence shell.
Shape of the molecule: The octet rule doesn't predict the shape of the
molecule.
Relative stability: The octet rule doesn't explain the relative stability of
molecules.
Ionic and covalent bonds: The octet rule doesn't apply to molecules that have
both ionic and covalent characteristics, because no bond is completely ionic or
completely covalent.

Conditions for the formation of an ionic bond are-
1. Ionisation enthalpy of the atom forming cation should be small.
2. Electron affinity of the atom forming anion should be high.
3. Lattice enthalpy of the ionic compound should be high.

nuclei of two bonded atoms in a molecule. Covalent Radius , Ionic Radius , Metallic

2.Bond Angle - it is defined as the angle between the orbitals containing
bonding electron pairs around the Central atom in a molecule. It helps to H H

4.Bond Order - It is given by the number of bond between the two atoms in a
molecule. In the Lewis description of covalent bond. The bond order is given by the
number of bonds between the two atoms in a molecule.
Isoelectronic molecules have identical bond orders.
All the covalent bonds have some partial ionic character and partial covalent
character. When a cation approaches an anion, the electron cloud of the anion is
attracted towards the cation and hence gets distorted. This is called Polarisation of
the anion. Outermost electron cloud

Tendency of anion to get polarised Cation
1. Smaller the cation, greater is its polarising power
2. Larger the anion, greater is its polarisability
3. Larger the charge on cation, more is its polarising power
4. Larger the charge on anion, more easily it gets polarised.
5. Same size & charge cations, then one with EC of transition metals is more
polarising than one with noble gas, alkali or alkaline earth metal cations.
The valence bond theory was proposed by Heitler and London to explain the
formation of covalent bond quantitatively using quantum mechanics.
Later on, Linus Pauling improved this theory by introducing the concept of
hybridization.
Valence bond (VBT) theory assumes that all bonds are localized bonds formed
between two atoms by the donation of an electron from each atom.
Valence Bond theory describes covalent bond formation as well as the electronic
structure of molecules.
The theory assumes that electrons occupy atomic orbital's of individual atoms
within a molecule, and that the electrons of one atom are attracted to the nucleus
of another atom.
A covalent bond is formed by the overlapping of two half filled valence atomic
orbital's of two diferent atoms.
The electrons in the overlapping orbital's get paired and confined between the
nuclei of two atoms.
The electron density between two bonded atoms increases due to overlapping. This
confers stability to the molecule.
Greater the extent of overlapping, stronger is the bond formed.
The direction of the covalent bond is along the region of overlapping of the atomic
orbital's i.e., covalent bond is directional.

HYBRIDIZATION
Didn’t understand? Watch
the video (Click here)
The intermixing of two or more pure atomic orbital's of an atom with almost
same energy to give same number of identical and degenerate new type of
orbital's is known as hybridization.
The new orbital's formed are also known as hybrid orbital's.
During hybridization, the atomic orbital's with different characteristics are mixed
with each other.
Salient features of Hybridization
The number of hybrid orbitals is equal to the number of the
atomic orbitals that get hybridised.
The hybridised orbitals are always equivalent in energy and
shape.
The hybrid orbitals are more effective in forming stable
bonds than the pure atomic orbitals.
These hybrid orbitals are directed in space in some preferred
direction to have minimum repulsion between electron pairs
and thus a stable arrangement.
Therefore, the type of hybridisation indicates the geometry
of the molecules.

VALENCE SHELL ELECTRON PAIR REPULSION THEORY the video (Click here)
The shape of a molecule depends upon the number of valence shell electron pairs
(bonded or nonbonded) around the central atom.
Pairs of electrons in the valence shell repel one another since their
electron clouds are negatively charged.
These pairs of electrons tend to occupy such positions in space that minimise
repulsion and thus maximise distance between them.
The valence shell is taken as a sphere with the electron pairs localising on the
spherical surface at maximum distance from one another.
A multiple bond is treated as if it is a single electron pair and the two or three
electron pairs of a multiple bond are treated as a single super pair.
Where two or more resonance structures can represent a molecule, the VSEPR
model is applicable to any such structure

Not all elements form stable negative ions in which case the electron affinity is
zero or even positive.
It is an Exothermic Process
It can also be used to determine the strength of chemical bonds. It is measured either
in units of electronvolts or kJ/mol.

Fluorine is the most electronegative element but still its electron affinity is less than
that of chlorine . It is because of the small size of fluorine. All the electrons in the
atom repels the incoming electron significantly, this nullify the effect of higher
electronegativity of fluorine over chlorine.
Similar trend will be followed by the elements of group 14,15 & 16 i.e. E.A. of Si > C, P
>N & S > O

Factors Affecting Electron Negativity
1. Atomic Size https://youtu.be/I55bzdbtY2k?
2. Nuclear Charge si=NBzsiWcyYAjeUgj_&t=9620
3. Electronic Configuration
4. Electronegativity is directly proportional to the positive charge on cation.
5. Electronegativity is inversely proportional to the positive charge on anion.
6. In case of Hybridisation, more s character, more is the Electronegativity.

Pauling Scale
The Pauling scale is based on an empirical relation between the energy of a
bond and the electronegativities of bonded atoms.
Robert S.Mulliken proposed that the arithmetic mean of the firstionization energy
(EI1) and theelectron affinity (Eea) should be a measure of the tendency of an
atom to attract electrons. As this definition is not dependent on an arbitrary
relative scale, it has also been termedabsolute electronegativity.

The alkane obtained by this reaction always contains even number of carbon
atoms. Therefore, this reaction cannot be used for the preparation of alkanes
containing odd number of carbon atoms.
Hence Kolbe's electrolytic method is useful for the preparation of ethane and
higher members.

AROMATIZATION OF ALKANES the video (Click here)
The Process of converting aliphatic & Alicyclic hydrocarbon to aromatic
hydrocarbons in presence of suitable catalyst at high pressure & temperature is
called as aromatisation.
Dehydrogenation &
Cyclisation takes place
The spatial arrangements of atoms that can be modified into one another
by rotation around a C-C single bond are called conformations.
Alkanes can therefore have an infinite number of conformations by rotating
around C-C single bonds.

CONFORMATIONS OF ETHANE the video (Click here)
Alkenes are a class of hydrocarbons (e.g, containing only carbon and hydrogen)
unsaturated compounds with at least one carbon-to-carbon double bond.
Another term used to describe alkenes is olefins. Alkenes are more reactive
than alkanes due to the presence of the double bond

Nature of halogen atom and the alkygroup determine rate of the reaction.
* Rate is: iodine > bromine › chlorine, while for alkyl groups it is: tert >
secondary > primary.
Since a water molecule is eliminated from the alcohol molecule in the presence of
an acid, this reaction is known as acidic dehydration of alcohols. This is
β-elimination reaction.
