STATES OF MATTER SOME BASIC CONCEPTS OF CHEMISTRY Learning Objectives: 1. Matter 2. Classification of matter 3. Law of chemical combination 4. Dalton’s Atomic theory 5. Mole concept 6. Stoichiometry Matter: Anything which occupies space and has mass, is called a matter. Ex: Air, water, rock etc.. Laws of chemical combination: ● Law of conservation of mass: Matter can neither be created nor be destroyed. ● Law of definite proportion: A given compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by weight ● Law of multiple proportion: If two elements can combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of other element, are in the ratio of small whole numbers. ● Gay Lussac’s law of gaseous volume: When gases combine or are produced in a chemical reaction, they do so in a simple ratio by volume provided all gases are at same temperature and volume. ● Avogadro’s Law Equal volume of gases at the same temperature and pressure should contain the equal number of molecules. Dalton’s atomic theory: Postulates: 1. Matter consists of indivisible atoms. 2. All the atoms of a given element have identical properties including identical mass. Atoms of different elements differ in mass. 3. Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine in a fixed ratio. 4. Chemical reactions involve reorganization of atoms. These are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Limitations of Dalton’s atomic theory: ● It does not account for subatomic particles. ● It does not account for isotopes. ● It does not account for isobars. ● Elements need not combine in simple, whole-number ratios to form compounds. ● The theory does not account for allotropes. Atomic mass: ➤ Mass of one atom. Unit used: amu or ‘U’ 1 amu = (1/12)th of the mass of C-12 atom Therefore, 1 amu = 1.67 ✖ 10-27 kg Molecular mass ➤ Sum of the atomic masses of the elements present in a molecule. Eg. Molecular mass of methane (CH4) = (1 ✖ 12 U + (4 ✖ 1 U) = 16 U Question: Dalton’s Atomic theory states that ________ . a. An atom has predominantly empty space. b. Matter is composed of small indestructible particles. c. Energy is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. d. All elements have several isotopes.
