LAWS OF CHEMICAL COMBINATION:

� Law of Conservation of Mass (Indestructibility of Matter): “In a

chemical reaction, the total mass of reactants is equal to the total mass of products i.e.

matter can neither be created nor be destroyed.” It was put forward by Lavoiser in 1785.

� Law of Definite Proportion: “When elements combine to form compounds, they

do so in definite proportions by weight. A compound always has the same proportion by

whatever method it is prepared.”It was given by Joseph Proust in 1799.

� Law of Multiple Proportions: "When two elements combine to form more than

one compound, the different weights of one of the elements combining with a fixed

weight of the other, bears a simple ratio to each other." The law was proved by Berzilius

& Stas.

� Law of Reciprocal or Equivalent Proportion: "The weights of two

elements combining separately with a fixed weight of a third element do so with each

other in multiple ratios."

BASIC CONCEPTS:

� Mole: “Atomic mass of an element, molecular mass of compounds or formula mass of

an ionic substance when expressed in grams.”

Mole = ���� �� ������� � ����

� Avogadro’s number: “The constant number (6.02 x 1023) atoms, molecules or ions

contained by one mole of any substance.”

� Atom: the basic building block of an element that retains the properties of that element

and can enter into a chemical reaction.

� Molecule: The smallest particle of a substance that retains the physical and chemical

properties of that substance.

� Empirical Formula: The simplest formula of a compound which represents the

elements present in a compound and the simplest ratio between them.

DETERMINATION OF EMPIRICAL FORMULA: S. No Steps

1. Elements present in the compound

2. Mass of each Element

3. Percentage of Each Element (���� ���������

������ �������� × ���)

4. Mole Ratio (�������� � �� !������

� Molecular Formula: The formula which represents the elements present and the

exact number of atoms of different elements present in a molecule of that compound.

DETERMINATION OF MOLECULAR FORMULA:

Molecular formula = [Empirical Formula] n

Where n = �� '(� �� ���

)*���(� ��� � ����

� Molar Concentrations: The molar concentration (M) is the number of moles of the

solute contained in one cubic decimeter (dm3) or litre of solution.

Molarity = M = No. of moles of solute1 litre of solution

� Molal Concentrations: A molal concentration (m) is the number of moles of the

solute per kilogram of solvent.

Molality = m = No. of moles of solute1 kilogram of solvent

� % Aqueous Solutions of Compounds: A 10 % aqueous solution of a solute

contains 10 g of solute per 100 g solution i.e. 10 g of solute mixed with 90 g water.

� Percentage Concentrations: The general formula is:

� % Concentratiions = No. of grams of solute

No. of grams of solvent x 100%

� Stoichiometry: the study of relationship between the amount of reactant or product

involved in a chemical equation based on balanced chemical equation.

� Limiting Reactant: “The reactant which is consumed first of all during the

chemical reaction is called Limiting Reactant.”

DIRECTIONS FOR LIMITING REACTANT:

O" + QR + SF → T

Step 1 Step 2 Step 3

O" → T

Mass of A → Mole of A → Mole of D

QR → T

Mass of B → Mole of B → Mole of D

SF → T

Mass of C → Mole of C → Mole of D

The source that yields the least quantity of moles would be the limiting reactant.

SOME FACTS TO REMEMBER:

1. 1 mole of a substanceYelement, compound\= 6.02 × 10_` particles Yatoms, molecules\

2. 1 mole of a gas = 22.4 dm` at S. T. P Y0°C and 1 atm pressure\

Separating mixtures based on differences in their

volatilities in a boiling liquid mixture.

3 Fractional

Distillation

Process in which a fractioning column is used in

distillation apparatus to separate components of a liquid

mixture that have different boiling points.

4 Vacuum

distillation whereby the pressure above the liquid mixture

to be distilled is reduced to less than its vapor pressure

(usually less than atmospheric pressure) causing

evaporation of the most volatile liquid(s) (those with the

lowest boiling points).

Extraction

Method

Method to separate compounds based on their relative

solubilities in two different immiscible liquids.

6 Electrophoresis Organic molecules, such as protein are placed in a gel. A

voltage is applied and the molecules move through the gel

because they are charged. The gel restricts the motion so

that different proteins will make different amounts of

progress in any given time.

SOLUBILITY:

SOME FACTS TO REMEMBER:

Soluble Non-Soluble

� All compounds of 0itrates (0O3-), Acetates

(CH3COO-) and Chlorates (???).

� All normal Carbonates (CO3-), Phosphates

(PO33-), Silicates (???) & Sulfides (???)

� All chlorides. � Chlorides of Silver, Mercury and Lead

� All sulfates � Sulfates of lead, barium, strontium and calcium.

� Hydroxides of Ca, Ba, Sr, 0a, K and 0H4. � All Hydroxides

� Common compounds of 0a, K and 0H4. �

TRENDS OF SOLUBILITY:

State Temperature Effect Pressure Effect

Solid Usually increases with

temperature increase

Little Effect

Gas Usually decreases with

temperature increase

Solubility varies in dirtect

proportion to the pressure

applied to it (Henry’s Law1)

FACTOR’S AFFECTING RATE OF SOLUBILITY:

The following procedures INCREASE the rate of solubility:

Pulverizing Increases surface exposed to solvent

Stirring Brings more solvent that is unsaturated into contact with solute.

Heating Increases molecular action and gives rise to mixing by convection currents.

(This heating affects the solubility as well as the rate of solubility)

1 Henry’s Law: “The solubility of a gas (unless the gas is very soluble) is directly proportional to the pressure

applied to the gas”

� Law of Triads: “If three elements are arranged in according to their atomic weights,

such that the atomic weight of the middle element is mean of the other two, then they will

exhibit similar properties.”

� Law of Octaves: “If elements are arranged according to increasing atomic weights,

a given set of properties recurs at every eighth place, by analogy with the musical scales.”

� Meyer’s Hypothesis: “The physical properties of elements are the periodic

function of their atomic weights.”

� Mendeleev’s Periodic Law: “The properties of the elements as well as the

formulae and properties of their compounds depend in a periodic manne on the atomic

weight of elements.”

� Modern Periodic Law: “The physical and chemical properties of elements are

periodic function of their atomic numbers.” OR “The physical and chemical properties of

the elements are periodic function of their electronic configuration, which vary with

increasing atomic numbers in a periodic manner.”

SPECTROSCOPY: “The branch of chemistry which deals with the study of absorption or emission of radiation is

called Spectroscopy.”

Planck’s Quantum Theory:

� The emission of radiation is due to the vibrations of charged particles (electrons) in the body.

� The emission is not continuous but in discrete bundles/packets of energy called “Quanta”.

This emitted radiation propagates in the form of waves.

� The energy associated with each quantum for a particular radiation frequency ν is given by:

E = hν

Where h = Planck’s constant = 6.625 x 10-35

J.sec = 6.625 x 10-37

erg.sec

� A body can emit or absorb either one quantum (hν) of energy or some whole number multiple

of it.

Spectrum: A band of rays of different wavelengths obtained from the decomposition of

radiations is called Spectrum.

� Emission Spectra � Absorption Spectra

Emission Spectrum:

When the radiation (absorbed by the object from an electric arc) is passed through a prism in a

spectroscope, it is decomposed into component wavelengths to form an image called an

Emission Spectrum.

� Continuous Spectrum � Line Spectrum

Continuous Spectrum: When a dispersed light is allowed to fall on a photographic plate,

the colors from violet to red (VIBGYOR) are seen without any line of demarcation. Such a

spectrum is called Continuous Spectrum.

Line Spectrum: If dispersed light falling on the photographic plate is sharp, distinct and

well defined by lines of demarcation then such a spectrum is called Line Spectrum.

Hydrogen Spectrum:

ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION: “The arrangement of electrons in an atom is referred as Electronic Configuration”

Electronic configuration of elements is the fundamental property by which they are

placed in the periodic table and exhibit periodic properties.

the lower value of n fills first.”

� The charged species is called ions, which do not

retain the properties of the original atoms.

� The ions do not form an individual molecule in

the liquid or solid phase, but are arranged into a

crystal lattice or giant ion-molecule containing

many of these ions.

� The attractive forces in the crystal lattice greatly

reduce the energy of the system, making it stable.

� Formation of an ionic bond occurs in a number of

steps, details of these steps are as follows:

PATHWAY FOR IONIC BOND FORMATION:

� Metal (s) ───> Metal (g) + ∆H1 Enthalpy of Sublimation

� Gas Molecule ───> Gas atom + ∆H2 Bond Dissociation Energy

� Metal (g) ───> Metal Ion + ∆H3 First Ionization Potential

� Gas Atom ───> Gas Ion+ ∆H4 Electron Affinity

� Metal Ion + Gas Ion ───> Ionic Compound+ ∆H5 Lattice Energy2

CONDITION FOR IONIC BOND FORMATION: For solubility, solvation energy3 must be

greater than the lattice energy. (∆H5+ ∆H4) > (∆H3+ ∆H2+ ∆H1)

CHARACTERISTICS OF IONIC COMPOUNDS:

� Each ion is surrounded by a fixed number of oppositely charged ions, so that the strong

electrostatic forces between ions act in all directions through the crystal.

� Ionic compound are soluble in water and similar polar solvents because of the strong

electrostatic attractions between the ions and polar molecules of the solvent.

� Ionic compounds are insoluble in the organic solvents because there’s no attraction between

the ions of ionic compound and the molecules of non-polar solvents.

� In the presence of a polar solvent, such as water,

the inter-ionic forces are so weakened that the ions

are separated and the free ions are able to move

under the influence of electric current i.e. ionic

compounds are electrolytes in molten and aqueous

state.

� Ionic compounds have low volatilities and low

vapor pressure or they do not vaporize readily at

room temperature.

� Ionic compounds are good electricity conductors in

molten state but their conductivity is smaller than

that of metallic substances.

2 “The energy released when one mole of gaseous ions arrange themselves in definite pattern from crystal lattice is

referred to as the lattice energy.” 3 “The surrounding of the ions by the solvent molecules for solvation releases the energy which is known as the

solvation energy.”

COVALENT BONDING:

“The chemical bond in which two atoms, who tend to gain electrons may combine with each

other by sharing one or more pairs of electrons.”

In a covalent bond:

� If the electronegativity difference between two or more atoms

is zero or not greater than 0.5, then a Non-Polar Covalent

Bond is formed.

� If the electronegativity difference is between 0.5 and 1.7,

there will not be an equal sharing of electrons between the

involved atoms. Then a Polar Covalent Bond is formed.

� The electrons that are shared between the two atoms are the

bonding electrons. � Bonding electrons spend much of their time

between the nuclei, resulting in the attractive

forces between negative charges of electrons and

positive charges of the two nuclei.

� In a polar covalent bonded molecule, the shared

pair of electrons is attracted more towards more

electronegative atom, i.e. a polar bond makes one

part of molecules partially negative(δ-

) and the

other partially positive (δ+

).

� Due to polar bonding, the molecule is observed to

enjoy greater stability than expected.

� In polar molecules, electron cloud shifts towards

the more electronegative atom.

Characteristics of a Covalent Compound:

� Exist as separate covalent molecules, electrically neutral and have little attractive forces for

each other called Van der Waal Forces.

� Mostly low volatile liquids or gases or low melting solids.

� Non-electrolytes

� Insoluble in water and similar polar solvents but soluble in organic solvents.

COORDINATE OR DATIVE OR CO-IONIC COVALENT BOND:

“The covalent bond in which the bonding electron pair is provided by a single atom”

� The group VA, VIA or VIIA form such type of bond.

� Once formed, a co-ordinate covalent bond becomes indistinguishable from a covalent bond.

BONDING ORBITALS:

“A covalent bond is formed as a result of overlapping of atomic orbitals of combining atoms

giving molecular orbitals.”

The overlapping of atomic orbitals is of two types:

� Sigma(σ) Bonding � Pi(π) Bonding

Sigma Bond:

“A bond which is formed by the axial overlap of two orbitals belonging to different atoms”

It is formed by the axial overlapping of s-s, p-p, s-p orbitals.

Pi Bond:

“A bond which is formed by side ways (parallel) overlapping of atomic orbitals”

Two different theories determine the behavior of electrons in a bonded atom. It is as follows

Valence Bond

Theory

Suggests

The bonding electrons occupy the atomic orbitals4 of the

bonded atoms.

Molecular

Orbital Theory

The bonding electrons occupy molecular orbitals5 which

belong to the whole molecule.

According to molecular orbital theory, linear combination of atomic orbitals (σ) gives

two molecular orbitals:

� σ-Bonding: A molecular orbital with high electron density in the region between two

nuclei having lower energy than either of the parent atomic orbitals from which molecular

orbital is derived.

� σ-Anti Bonding: The molecular orbital having high energy and low electron density

between the nuclei, is less stable than either of the parent atomic orbitals from which it is

derived.

having same shape and energy”

MOLECULAR GEOMETRY: � The geometrical shape of a molecule depends upon the repulsion factor among the electrons

pair of an atom.

� There are two types of electron pairs surrounding the central atom:

Bond Pair: These are the result of sharing of unpaired electrons of central atom with unpaired

electrons of surrounding atoms.

Lone Pair: These are the paired electrons, which have not taken part in sharing. They are also

called “Non Bonding Pairs”.

The repulsion factor of these active sets of electrons behaves as follows:

Lone Pair – Lone Pair repulsion > Lone pair – Bond Pair repulsion > Bond – Bond Pair repulsion

� The shape of an atom could be predicted by the number of electrons groups6 in a molecule. A

general observation is as follows:

� 2 Electron Groups: Linear

� 3 Electron Groups: Trigonal Planar

� 4 Electron Groups: Tetrahedral

� 5 Electron Groups: Trigonal Bipyramidal

� 6 Electron Groups: Octahedral

6 An electron group is any collection of valence electrons localized in a region around a central atom that exerts

repulsion on other groups of valence electrons

THERMODYNAMIC PROCESSES:

� Isothermal Process: “The process in which temperature remains constant.” i.e. dT = 0

� Isochoric Process: “The process in which volume remains constant.” i.e. dV = 0

� Isobaric Process: “The process in which pressure remains constant.” i.e. dP = 0

� Adiabatic Process: “The process in which heat remains constant.” i.e. dH = 0

FIRST LAW OF THERMODYNAMICS: This law was enunciated by

Helmholtz.

“Energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, although I may change from one form to

another” OR

“The total energy of a system and its surrounding must remain constant”.

Mathematically, q = (E2-E1) + W → q = ∆E + W → ∆E = q – W→ W = q – ∆E

Facts to remember:

� Heat is supplied to the system: q = [positive] � Work is done by the system: W = [positive]

� Heat is evolved by the system: q = [negative] � Work is done on the system: W = [negative]

Units of Heat Energy:

1 Calorie = 4.2 J 1 J = 0.239 Calorie 1 BTU = 1055 J 1 J = 107 erg

HESS’S LAW OF CONSTANT HEAT SUMMATION: “The heat evolved or absorbed in a given reaction must be independent of the particular manner

in which the reaction takes place”

Let’s consider, for a certain reaction:

Pathway 1: A ──────> D + ∆H

Pathway 2: A ──────> B + ∆H1

B ──────> C + ∆H2

C ──────> D + ∆H3

According to the law, ∆H = ∆H1 + ∆H2 + ∆H3

MEASUREMENT OF HEAT:

Heat Capacity: “The quantity of heat required to change the temperature of system by 1°C

or 1K.”

Q = C ∆T

Molar Heat Capacity: “The heat capacity of one mole of a substance.”

TERMINOLOGY:

� System: “Any specified real or imaginary part of the universe that is under consideration.”

Types of System:

� Open System: “The system that interacts readily with the surroundings, exchanging

matter and energy.”

� Closed System: “The system that exchanges energy but not matter with

surroundings.”

� Isolated System: “The system that exchanges neither matter nor energy with the

surroundings.”

� Homogenous System: “The system which is completely uniform throughout i.e.

consisting only one phase.”

� Heterogeneous System: “The system which is not uniform throughout i.e.

consisting of two or more phases.”

� Surroundings: “The environment of the system or rest of the universe which may act on

the system is known as Surrounding.”

� Interactions: “The exchange of energy and/or matter between a system and

surroundings.”

� Heat of Reaction: “The quantity of heat exchanged between a system and its

surroundings for a reaction at constant temperature.”

� State: “A system is said to be in a certain state when all its properties are fixed.”

� State Function: “The macroscopic properties of a system which has some definite value

for each state and independent of path in which the state is reached.”

Example: Enthalpy, Temperature, etc

� Enthalpy: “The sum of internal energy (E) and the pressure-volume product of a system”

� Enthalpy is an extensive property.

� Enthalpy is a state function.

� Enthalpy changes have unique values.

� Entropy: “The measure of the disorder of the system.”

� Disorder of system increases: d (entropy) = [positive]

� Disorder of system decreases: d (entropy) = [negative]

� Spontaneous changes always occur with an increase of entropy of the universe.

� Entropy of a system as a whole is an irreversible process.

� Entropy is expressed in cal/°C or J/K (SI Unit).

� Gibb’s Free Energy (G): The criterion for spontaneity

� ∆G = [negative] → Reaction is spontaneous and feasible

� ∆G = [positive] → Reaction is impossible

� ∆G = 0 → Reaction is in equilibrium

� Internal Energy: “Sum of energies possessed by a system i.e. translational, vibrational,

rotational, chemical, bond energy, electronic energy, nuclear energy of constituent atoms and

potential energy.”

E = Et + Er + Ee + En + EP.E + Ey

� Macroscopic Properties: “The properties of s system easily measurable for the

entire bulk of the molecules.”

It is divided into following two groups:

� Intensive Properties: “The properties of a system those are independent of the

amount of material concerned.”

Examples: Density, Pressure, Temperature, Refractive index, Viscosity, Surface Tension,

Melting Point, Boiling Point etc

� Extensive Properties: “The properties of a system those are dependent of the amount

of material concerned.”

Examples: Mass, Volume, Mole, Enthalpy, Entropy, Internal Energy, Gibb’s Free Energy

etc

� Heat of Formation: “The change in enthalpy, when 1 mole of a substance is produced

from its elements in the natural state.”

� Liquid Hydrogen is used a rocket fuel. The fuel tank holds 1.5 x 106 L of liquid hydrogen which powers the shuttle for about 8.5 min at the rate of consumption of 3000 L/s.

� In developing oxyhydrogen welding torch that readily cuts through steel and can be used to melt tungsten (W), which has a melting point of 3400°C.

WATER:

HARD WATER AND WATER SOFTENING:

HARD WATER: The ground water that contains significant concentrations of ions from natural sources, principally Ca2+, Mg2+ and sometimes Fe2+ along with associated anions.

� Temporary Hard Water: The hard water with HCO3- as primary anion.

� Permanent Hard Water: The hard water with Cl- and SO42-as primary anions.

WATER SOFTENING:

� Temporary Hard Water: Temporary hard water can be softened by boiling. A better way is to treat the water with a base, usually Ca(OH)2 that converts HCO3

- to CO32-.

� Permanent Hard Water: Permanent hard water cannot be softened by boiling. Addition of washing soda (Na2CO3) softens permanent hard water. But soluble salts, such as NaCl and Na2SO4 remain in solution.

HEAVY WATER: The water molecule having the Deuterium isotope ‘D’ attached with Oxygen atom in place of Hydrogen (Protium) ‘H’ The formula for Heavy Water is D2O and its molecular mass is 20 a.m.u.

Uses:

� Heavy water is used in nuclear reactors as moderators which absorb the neutrons and slow down the process.

� Heavy water is used in analytical experiments for determining the mechanism of reactions.
