1: The atom Introduction Atoms are the building blocks for matter Everything is made up of atoms 1A: Sub-atomic particles Atoms are made up of 3 sub-atomic particles‚ 2 of which are located in the nucleus (the heart of the atom) Positively charges protons and neutrally charged (non-charged) neutrons are found in the nucleus Negatively charged electrons are located orbiting the nucleus in shells. They stay in orbit because the electrons are attracted to the protons 2: The Element

Chapter 1 * What is Chemistry? -it is the study of the composition of substances and the changes they undergo. * What are the 5 branches of chemistry? * Organic chemistry‚ inorganic chemistry‚ analytical chemistry‚ physical chemistry‚ biochemistry. * What is the difference between a theory and law? -a theory is a thoroughly tested explanation of why experiments give certain results. A scientific law is a concise statement that summarized the results of a broad spectrum of observations

Chemistry Revision F331 Isotopes - atoms with the same atomic number‚ but different mass numbers 131I - radioactive tracer for thyroid. 99Tc for tumours. Radioisotopes - gamma emitters & short half life - long enough to detect‚ but not long enough for damage. Beta particles emitters are more useful than alpha particle emitters because they penetrate more and so are more easily detected. Also‚ less damaging. The half life is the time taken for half the isotope to decay Mass left = initial

Energy: Nuclear Fusion‚ Hydroelectric‚ and Hydrogen Fuel Cells In today’s world‚ where everyone owns an electronic appliance‚ energy is an extremely valuable resource and in high demand. Though in the past this energy was provided by burning fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas‚ this way of providing energy can’t last much longer due to the dwindling amount of fossil fuels and the damage it causes to the environment. Therefore‚ scientists have been searching for new ways of providing energy

EAS 199A Lecture Notes: Basic Electricity Fall 2011 This course module introduces the basic physical models by which we explain the flow of electricity. The Bohr model of an atom – a nucleus surrounded by shells of electrons traveling in discrete orbits – is presented. Electrical current is described as a flow of electrons. Ohm’s law – the relationship between voltage‚ current and electrical resistance – is introduced. Learning Objectives Understanding the basic principles of electricity is

SCIENTIFIC ADVANCEMENT IS A BOON OR BANE INTRODUCTION Science offers knowledge based on experiment and observation‚ but technologyis the total sum of the application of knowledge. This has made life easy and comfortablefor the user. A country said to be a developed country when it has many technicaladvancements. A small country like japan has succeeded to acquire this prestige becauseof its advancements and applications of technology at a high level. This century is the ageof Science. We cannot

Atomic structure: scientists 1. Democritus: 1st person to think of atom (500 BCE)- philosopher Atom is the smallest piece of an element that has same properties as the element. 2. Lavisier: Law of conservation of mass/ matter • Mass can’t be created or destroy; same amount of stuff 3. Joseph Proust: Law of constant composition (law of definite Proportions) • A compound is always made of the same elements in the same ratio. 4.
