Chapter 1 3
Learning Chemistry• Different people learn
chemistry differently.
• What do you see in the picture?
• Some people see a vase on a dark background, some people see two faces.
![Page 4: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Chapter 1 4
Problem Solving• Connect the 9 dots using only four straight lines.
• Experiment until you find a solution.
• However, we have used 5 straight lines.
• No matter which dot we start with, we still need 5 lines.
![Page 5: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Chapter 1 5
Problem Solving• Are we confining the
problem?
• We need to go beyond the 9 dots to answer the problem.

![Page 8: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Chapter 1 8
Chemistry: The Central Science
• Why????
• Most other sciences demand an understanding of basic chemical principles, and Chemistry is often referred to as the Central Science
![Page 9: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chapter 1 9
Modern Chemistry• Chemistry is a science that studies the composition of
matter and its properties.
• Chemistry is divided into several branches:
– Organic chemistry is the study of substances containing carbon
– Inorganic chemistry is the study of all other substances
– Biochemistry is the study of substances derived from plants and animals
– Analytical is the study of matter and ways to study the properties of matter.
– Physical is the physics of chemistry. Thermodynamics and quantum mechanics.

The Standard Units• Scientists have agreed on a set of
international standard units for comparing all our measurements called the SI units
Quantity Unit Symbol
length meter m
mass kilogram kg
time second s
temperature kelvin K
![Page 12: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Length• SI unit = meter
– About a yard• Commonly use centimeters (cm)
– 1 m = 100 cm– 1 cm = 0.01 m = 10 mm– 1 inch = 2.54 cm
![Page 13: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mass• Measure of the amount of matter
present in an object– weight measures the gravitational pull
on an object, which depends on its mass
• SI unit = kilogram (kg)– about 2 lbs. 3 oz.
• Commonly measure mass in grams (g) or milligrams (mg)
![Page 14: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

What Is a Measurement?
• quantitative observation
• every measurement has a number and a unit
• every digit written is certain, the last one which is estimated
![Page 18: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Uncertainty in Measured Numbers
uncertainty comes from:• limitations of the instruments used for
comparison, • the experimental design, • the experimenter, • nature’s random behavior
![Page 22: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Precision and Accuracy• accuracy is an indication of how close a
measurement comes to the actual value of the quantity
Percent error =
• precision is an indication of how reproducible a measurement is
![Page 23: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Accuracy vs. Precision
![Page 24: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Precision• imprecision in measurements is caused
by random errors– errors that result from random fluctuations
• we determine the precision of a set of measurements by evaluating how far they are from the actual value and each other called standard deviation.
• Do multiple trials to lesson error and improve precision.
![Page 25: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Accuracy• inaccuracy in measurement caused by
systematic errors– errors caused by limitations in the instruments
or techniques or experimental design
• we determine the accuracy of a measurement by evaluating how far it is from the actual value
• Use percent error to calculate how accurate you are
![Page 26: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Mass & Volume• mass and volume are extensive
properties– the value depends on the quantity of
matter– extensive properties cannot be used to
identify what type of matter something is• if you are given a large glass containing 100 g
of a clear, colorless liquid and a small glass containing 25 g of a clear, colorless liquid - are both liquids the same stuff?

Accuracy versus Precision
![Page 30: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Significant Figures
• the non-place-holding digits in a reported measurement are called significant figures
• significant figures tell us the range of values to expect for repeated measurements
• We use significant figures in science because measurement is always involved.
![Page 31: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Counting Significant Figures
1) All non-zero digits are significant– 1.5 has 2 sig. figs.
2) Interior zeros are significant– 1.05 has 3 sig. figs.
3) Leading zeros are NOT significant –0.001050 has 4 sig. figs.
![Page 32: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Counting Significant Figures
4) Trailing zeros may or may not be significant 1) If a decimal is present, trailing zeros are significant
• 1.050 has 4 sig. figs.
2) If a decimal is NOT present, trailing zeros are NOT significant.
• if 150 has 2 sig. figs. then 1.5 x 102
• but if 150. has 3 sig. figs. then 1.50 x 102
**These are considered ambiguous and should be avoided by using scientific notation
![Page 33: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Determining the Number of Significant Figures in a Number
How many significant figures are in each of the following?
0.04450 m
5.0003 km
1.000 × 105 s
0.00002 mm
10,000 m
4 sig. figs.; the digits 4 and 5, and the trailing 0
5 sig. figs.; the digits 5 and 3, and the interior 0’s
4 sig. figs.; the digit 1, and the trailing 0’s
1 sig. figs.; the digit 2, not the leading 0’s
Ambiguous, generally assume 1 sig. fig.
![Page 34: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Multiplication and Division with Significant Figures
• when multiplying or dividing measurements with significant figures, the answer must reflect the fewest number of significant figures
1) 5.02 × 89,665 × 0.10 =
2) 5.892 ÷ 6.10 =
![Page 35: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Addition and Subtraction with Significant Figures
• when adding or subtracting measurements with significant figures, the answer should reflect the largest uncertainty
1) 5.74 + 0.823+ 2.651 =
2) 4.8 - 3.965 =
![Page 36: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Roundingif the number after the place of the last significant
figure is:0 to 4, round down
– drop all digits after the last sig. fig. and leave the last sig. fig. alone
5 to 9, round up– drop all digits after the last sig. fig. and increase the last
sig. fig. by one
To avoid accumulating extra error from rounding, round only at the end, keeping track of the last sig. fig. for intermediate calculations
![Page 37: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

• Why are significant figures not important in your math class?
Chapter 1 44
![Page 45: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Density• Ratio of mass:volume
– Solids = g/cm3
• 1 cm3 = 1 mL
– Liquids = g/mL– Gases = g/L
• Volume of a solid can be determined by water displacement – Archimedes Principle
![Page 46: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Density
• Density : solids > liquids >>> gases– except ice is less dense than
liquid water!
• Heating an object generally causes it to expand, therefore the density changes with temperature
![Page 47: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Density
• Iron has a density of 7.86 g/cm3. Could a block of metal with a mass of 18.2 g and a volume of 2.56 cm3be iron?
![Page 48: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Density
• What volume would a 0.871 g sample of air occupy if the density of air is 1.29 g/L?

Units• Always include units in your calculations
– you can do the same kind of operations on units as you can with numbers
• cm × cm = cm2
• cm + cm = cm• cm ÷ cm = 1
![Page 51: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Dimensional Analysis
• Using units as a guide to problem solving is called dimensional analysis
• This is the technique that we have learned to convert between two different units.
![Page 52: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Problem Solving and Conversion Factors
• Conversion factors are relationships between two units– May be exact or measured
• Conversion factors are generated from unit equalities– e.g., 1 inch = 2.54 cm can give
or
in1
cm54.2cm54.2
in1
![Page 53: Introductory Chemistry: Chemistry and You Chapter 1](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020714/56649e4b5503460f94b3f025/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Problem Solving and Dimensional Analysis
• Arrange conversion factors so given unit cancels
– Arrange conversion factor so given unit is on the bottom of the conversion factor
• May string conversion factors
– So we do not need to know every relationship, as long as we can find something else the given and desired units are related to
unit desiredunitgiven
unit desiredunitgiven

• Using a ruler from the front counter, measure the length, width and height of a Chemistry textbook to the nearest 1 cm.
• How many meters wide is it?
• How many inches is the width of the textbook (2.54 cm = 1 in)?
• How many feet is your textbook?

Volume• Derived unit (width x length x height)
– any length unit cubed• Measure of the amount of space
occupied• SI unit = cubic meter (m3)• Commonly measure solid volume in
cubic centimeters (cm3)– 1 m3 = 106 cm3
• Commonly measure liquid or gas volume in milliliters (mL)– 1 L is slightly larger than 1 quart– 1 mL = 1 cm3

Impossible Conversions
• Is it possible to find how many seconds in a kilogram?
• In order to do unit conversions they must be able to correspond to the same quantity.– For example, kilograms and pounds are both
units of mass.

Graphing in Science
• All graphing that is done in science must include the following:
1. A descriptive title
2. X and Y axis labeled with units.
3. The X – axis is the manipulated variable and the Y- axis is the responding variable.
4. A trend line (or line of best fit) to show the trend in the data that has been plotted.

Scientific Investigations
• Science is the methodical exploration of nature followed by a logical explanation of the observations.
• Scientific investigation entails:– planning an investigation– carefully recording observations– gathering data– analyzing the results

The Scientific Method
• The scientific method is a systematic investigation of nature and requires proposing an explanation for the results of an experiment in the form of a general principle.
• The initial, tentative proposal of a scientific principle is called a hypothesis.
• After further investigation, the original hypothesis may be rejected, revised, or elevated to the status of a scientific principle.

Scientific Method
the careful noting and recording of natural phenomena
a test of a hypothesis or theory
a tentative explanation of a single or small number of natural phenomena
a general explanation of natural phenomena
a generally observed natural phenomenon

Conclusions Continued• After sufficient evidence, a hypothesis becomes a
scientific theory.
• A natural law is a measurable relationship.

Conclusions
• Scientists use the scientific method to investigate the world around them.
• Experiments lead to a hypothesis, which may lead to a scientific theory or a natural law.
• Chemistry is a central science with many branches.
• The impact of chemistry is felt in many aspects of our daily lives.
