Document Summary

Chapter 1: keys to the study of chemistry. 1. 1 some fundamental definitions: chemistry: the study of matter and its properties, the changes that matter undergoes, and the energy associated with those changes. > usually unit definitions and number counts of items, not measured quantities. 2. 2 the observations that led to an atomic view of matter. Isotopes and atomic masses of elements: all atoms of an element are identical in atomic number but not in mass number, isotopes have different numbers of neutrons and therefore, different mass numbers. To calculate average atomic mass (often a midterm exam question), you need to multiply the percent abundance by the mass for each of the isotopes and then add each of those together to get the average atomic mass. 2. 6 elements: a first look at the periodic table. Researchers noted recurring and periodic patterns of element behavior after receiving chemical reactions, properties, and atomic masses of elements.
