Molecular Compounds & Naming
Counting Atoms
Law of Conservation Mass
Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Word equations
Just like chemical equations only the elements in word form
Acids & Bases
Acids
A substance that produces hydrogen ions when dissolved in water
Sour such as lemons, vinegar
Like water
Good conductors of electricity
Non-metal oxides
Molecular compounds
Usually begins with "H"
Acids
A substance that produces hydroxide ions when dissolved in water
Bitter like tonic water
Slippery like soap
Good conductors of electricity
Metal oxides
ionic compounds
Usually ends with "OH" or "CO3"
Rules of Counting Atoms
1. The symbol of an element represents one atom of that element
NaCl= 2 atoms - Sodium-1
Chlorine-1
2. A subscript is a number written at the lower right corner after the symbol of an element. If there is more than one atom of the element, then a subscript is used to indicate the number of atoms of that element
H2SO4=7 atoms - Hydrogen-2
Sulfur-1
Oxygen-4
3. A subscript outside a bracket multiplies all the elements inside the brackets
Mg3(PO4)2=13 atoms -Magnesium-3
Phosphorus-2
Oxygen-8
4. A coefficient is a number written in front of a chemical symbol and indicates the number of atoms of that element. A coefficient can also be written in front of a chemical formula to indicate the number of molecules of that compound
3 CO2=9 atoms-Carbon-1x3=3
Oxygen-2x3=6

Subatomic Particles
Protons
A subatomic particle with a positive charge
Electrons
A subatomic particle with a negative charge
Neutrons
A subatomic particle with a neutral charge
Waves
Properties of waves
Wavelength
The distance from one wave to the next
Symbol for wavelength is the Greek letter Lambda λ
Amplitude
The wave's height or depth from the rest position
Frequency
The rate of repetition of a wave
The Electromagnetic Spectrum
Types of Light
Additive & Subtractive colour theory
Additive
White like is composed of different colours of light
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Violet
Subtractive
When light strikes an object, some waves are reflected and some are absorbed
Coloured matter absorbs different wavelength of light
The absorbed colours "subtracted" from the reflect light
Ray Model of Light
This diagram shows how light rays travel in a straight line away from a light source in every direction
Light and matter interaction
Absoption
Reflection
Light Rays interact in specific ways
Transparent Object
Light rays are transmitted
Translucent Object
Light rays are transmitted and reflected
Opaque Object
Light rays are reflected
Shadows
Dark areas where an object blocks direct light rays from a light source
Object near to the source = bigger shadow
Object far to the source = smaller shadow
Umbra
Dark areas where all light rays from a source no matter how small or far are blocked
Penumbra
The partial shadow part where light rays from a non point source are party blocked
Transmission
Reflection & Refraction
Laws of reflection
Angle of Incidence = Angle of Reflection
Plane mirrors
Virtual Images
Reflection
Concave mirrors
Real or Virtual images
Focus point
Convex mirrors
Virtual, smaller Images
Divergence rays
Refraction
The bending or change in direction of light when it travels from one substance to another
Index of Refraction
Light moves from a faster substance to a slower substance, the light will bend towards the normal and if the light moves from a slower substance to a faster substance, the light will bend away from the normal
Types of reflections
Specular Reflection
All rays are parallel
Diffuse Reflection
All rays are rays are moving in different directions
Concave and Convex lenses
In concave lenses, light converges at the focal point to create virtual images
Virtual images
Light rays only appear to come to that point
In Convex lenses, light converges at the focal point to create real images
Real images
Light rays actually meet at that point
