Chemistry C1
- 1.1 Atoms
- All substances are made up of atoms
- The periodic table lists all the chemical elements, with eight main groups each
containing elements with similar chemical properties.
- Elements contain only one type of
atom
- Compounds contain more than one type of
atom
- An atom hass a tiny nucleus at its centre, surrounded by electrons.
- 1.2 Chemical Equations
- No new atoms are ever created or destroyed in a chemical reaction
: the total mass of reactants = total mass of products
- There is the same number of each type of atom on
each side of a balanced symbol equation
- You can include state symbols to give extra information in balanced symbol equations, (l) for
liquid, (s) for solid, (g( for gases and (aq) for aqueoud solutions
- 1.3 Seperating Mixtures
- A mixture is made up of two or more substances that are
not chemically combined together
- Mixtures caan be seperated by physical means, such as filtratio, crystalisation, and simple
distillation.
- 1.4 Fractional distillation and paper chromotography
- Fractional distillation is an effective way of seperating miscible
liquids, using a fractionating column.
- The seperation ias possible because of the different boiling points of the liquids in the mixture.
- Paper chromotography seperated
mixtures of substances dissolved in a
solvent as they move up a piece of
chromotography paper.
- The different substances are seperated
because of their different solubilities in the
solvent used
- 1.5 Histpry of the atom
