Introduction to Chemistry Mr. Christopherson Normal Community High School www.unit5.org/chemistry

Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact. William James, 1842-1910 American Psychologist and Philospher Whether you believe you can do a thing or believe you can’t, you are right. Henry Ford, 1863-1947 American Car Manufacturer All through my life, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child. Marie Curie, 1867-1934 Polish-Born French Chemist Problems call forth our courage and our wisdom; indeed, they create our courage and our wisdom. it is only because of problems that we grow mentally and spiritually. It is through the pain of confronting and resolving problems that we learn. M. Scott Peck, b. 1936 American Psychiatrist and Writer Don’t be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated. You can’t cross a chasm in two small jumps. David Lloyd George, 1863-1945 British Prime Minister and Statesman

A Lost Child Keeping Warm Once upon a time a small child became lost. Because the weather was cold, he decided to gather material for a fire . As he brought objects back to his campfire, he discovered that some of them burned and some of them didn’t burn. To avoid collecting useless substances, the child began to keep track of those objects that burned and those that did not. This procedure if one of the elementary logical thought processes by which information is systematized. It is called inductive reasoning ( a general rule is framed on the basis of a collection of individual observations (or facts)). He proposed a possible “generalization.” Perhaps: “ Cylindrical objects burn .” Jaffe, New World of Chemistry , 1955, page 3-4

“Cylindrical Objects Burn” WILL BURN Tree limbs Broom handles Pencils Chair legs Flagpoles WON’T BURN Rocks Blackberries Marbles Paperweights Jaffe, New World of Chemistry , 1955, page 3-4

Using his generalization, the boy gathered more substances to burn. He collected three pieces of pipe, two ginger ale bottles, and the axle from an old car, while leaving a huge cardboard box full of newspapers. During the long cold night that followed he drew these conclusions : (1) The cylindrical shape of a burnable object may not be intimately associated with its flammability after all . (2) Even though the “cylindrical” rule is no longer useful, tree limbs, broom handles, pencils, and other burnables still burn . (3) He’d better bring the list along tomorrow. New idea: Perhaps “ Wooden objects burn .” Jaffe, New World of Chemistry , 1955, page 3-4

The Six Levels of Thought Knowledge Comprehension Application Analysis Synthesis Evaluation “Success is a journey, not a destination.” -Ben Sweetland “Successful students make mistakes, but they don’t quit. They learn from them.” -Ralph Burns “Success consist of a series of little daily efforts.” -Marie McCuillough

You’ve Finally Met Your Match

A Description of a Burning Candle A photograph of a burning candle is shown 1 in the upper right corner. The candle is cylindrical 2 and has a diameter 3 of about 3 cm. The length of the candle was initially about 16 centimeters 4 , and it changed slowly 5 during observation, decreasing about 1 cm in one hour 6 . The candle is made of a translucent 7 , white 8 solid 9 which has a slight odor 10 and no taste 11 . It is soft enough to be scratched with the fingernail 12 . There is a wick 13 which extends from top to bottom 14 of the candle along its central axis 15 and protrudes about 5 mm above the top of the candle 16 . The wick is made of three strands of string braided together 17 . A candle is lit by holding a source of flame close to the wick for a few seconds. Thereafter the source of flame can be removed and the flame sustains itself at the wick 18 . The burning candle makes no sound 19 . While burning, the body of the candle remains cool to the touch 20 except near the top. Within about 1.5 cm of the top the candle is warm 21 (but not hot) and sufficiently soft to mold easily 22 . The flame flickers in response to air currents 23 and tends to become quite smoky while flickering 24 . In the absence of air currents, the flame is of the form shown in the photograph, though it retains some movement at all times 25 . The flame begins about 2 mm above the top of the candle 26 , and at its base the flame has a blue tint 27 . Immediately around the wick in a region about 2 mm wide and extending about 5 mm above the top of the wick 28 the flame is dark 29 . This dark region is roughly conical in shape 30 . Around this zone and extending about 1 cm above the dark zone is a region which emits yellow light 31 , bright but not blinding 32 . The flame has rather sharply defined sides 33 but a ragged top 34 . The wick is white where it emerges from the candle 35 , but from the base of the flame to the end of the wick 36 it is black, appearing burnt, except for the last 0,5 cm, where it glows red 37 . The wick curls over about 3 mm from its end 38 . As the candle becomes shorter, the wick shortens too, so as to extend roughly a constant length above the top of the candle 39 . Heat is emitted by the flame 40 , enough so that it becomes uncomfortable in 10 to 20 seconds if one holds his finger 10 cm to the side of the quiet flame 41 or 10 – 12 cm above the flame 42 .

Karen Wetterhahn, a chemistry Professor at Dartmouth College, died of mercury poisoning after spilling just one drop in a labor- atory on Aug. 14, 1996. The mercury penetrated her skin through gloves.

Lead Poisoning ( Plumbism) LD 50 = mg / kg Effects: slow mental development, lack of concentration Small children may accidentally ingest lead-based paints that peel off from window sills and walls. Lead accumulates near bone joints – lighter color on X-ray is lead.

Science

Basic research leads us to a greater understanding of how the natural world operates.

Applied research aims to develop useful applications from the knowledge gained from basic research.

The Functions of Science pure science applied science the search for knowledge; facts using knowledge in a practical way

Science attempts to establish cause-effect relationships. 

Pure Science The search for facts about the natural world. ? In science, we often try to establish a cause-effect relationship. Driven by curiosity : the need to know, explore, conquer something new.

Applied Science The practical application of scientific discoveries. Also known as “ technology ” - Used to improve our lives Cell phones Biodegradable garbage bags

The Scientific Method

Guiding Questions Scientific explanations must meet certain criteria: they should be logical, respect the rules of evidence, be open to criticism, report methods and procedures, and make knowledge public. Scientific experiments are conducted after much thought about what may be causing the phenomena in order to isolate important factors. In order to isolate these factors careful planning, including addressing safety issues, must be taken into consideration before attempting experiments. In order to draw a valid conclusion from an experiment, all variables except for that which is being tested must be controlled. Measurements communicate not only a magnitude and the system of measurement (unit) but also information about the tool used to make the measurement through precision (significant figures) and uncertainty

Fundamental Properties of Models A model does not equal reality. Models are oversimplifications, and are therefore often wrong. Models become more complicated as they age. We must understand the underlying assumptions in a model so that we don’t misuse it.

Episode 4 - Modeling The Unseen VIDEO ON DEMAND Scientific investigators need to explain things beyond the realm of ordinary perception. The models used by scientists often represent flights of intuition and invention.

Using the scientific method requires that one be a good observer. observation inference involves a judgment or assumption uses the five senses

The Skeptical Chemist Robert Boyle In “ The Sceptical Chymist” Boyle stated that scientific speculation was worthless unless it was supported by experimental evidence . This principle led to the development of the scientific method . (1661)

“My mother the eye doctor” Observation or Inference? One player is holding a bat. The player holding the bat is talking. One of the teams is called the “Reds.” One player is wearing a catcher’s mask. One player is a catcher. Names are written on the uniforms. The players in the picture are on opposite teams. The adult is the umpire. The piece of paper is a note from the mother of the batter. The adult is holding a piece of paper. The mother of the batter is an optometrist or opthalmologist (an eye doctor).

Data Observations are also called data . There are two types of data. qualitative data quantitative data descriptions; measurements ; no numbers must have numbers and UNITS

Parts of the Scientific Method Identify an unknown. Make a hypothesis (a testable prediction). Experiment to test the hypothesis. Draw a valid conclusion .

Hypotheses A tentative explanation for the observations May not be correct, but it puts the scientist’s understanding of the system being studied into a form that can be tested Copyright © 2007 Pearson Benjamin Cummings. All rights reserved.

Experiments Tests the validity of the hypothesis Are systematic observations or measurements made under controlled conditions, in which the variable of interest is clearly distinguished from any others If experimental results are reproducible, they are summarized in a law.

Four Element Theory Plato was an atomist Thought all matter was composed of 4 elements: Earth Water Fire Air Ether (close to heaven) ‘MATTER’ FIRE EARTH AIR WATER Hot Wet Cold Dry Relation of the four elements and the four qualities Graphic courtesy of Ken Costello @ www.chemistryland.com

Anaxagoras (Greek, born 500 B.C.) Suggested every substance had its own kind of “ seeds ” that clustered together to make the substance, much as our atoms cluster to make molecules. Some Early Ideas on Matter O’Connor Davis, MacNab, McClellan, CHEMISTRY Experiments and Principles 1982, page 26, Empedocles (Greek, born in Sicily, 490 B.C.) Suggested there were only four basic seeds – earth, air, fire, and water . The elementary substances (atoms to us) combined in various ways to make everything. Democritus (Thracian, born 470 B.C.) Actually proposed the word atom (indivisible) because he believed that all matter consisted of such tiny units with voids between, an idea quite similar to our own beliefs. It was rejected by Aristotle and thus lost for 2000 years. Aristotle (Greek, born 384 B.C.) Added the idea of “qualities” – heat, cold, dryness, moisture – as basic elements which combined as shown in the diagram (previous page). Hot + dry made fire; hot + wet made air, and so on.

Drunken Goldfish Fighting fish Uneducated worms appear to acquire knowledge by eating educated worms. Rats are more attracted to other rats than to tennis balls. Disco music Conclusions must be supported by data to be valid. “Goldfish immersed in 3.1% alcohol will overturn within 6 to 8 minutes. Because of this tendency to fall over when drunk, the goldfish is a good model for research on the effects of alcohol. When preliminary studies indicated that goldfish tended to forget things when drunk, and that Siamese Fighting Fish became more aggressive after a little drink or two, their attraction as experimental animals became irresistible.” Hartston, Drunken Goldfish & Other Irrelevant Scientific Research , page 53

The Alchemist Frankly, I’d be satisfied if I could turn gold into lead!

The Alchemist’s Dream COPPER “ SILVER ” “ GOLD ” Zinc coated Brass = Copper + Zinc Penny into Gold - Alchemist Dream

Copper was used to make bullet shells in WW II. By 1943, the supply of copper metal was in short supply. The US government did not want to ‘waste’ copper on making pennies. Pennies were made with steel metal. They looked silver. Zinc Pennies Before 1982, all pennies were solid copper (except 1943). After 1982, pennies were made from zinc. A thin coating of copper was pressed on the zinc. A shortage of copper drove the price of copper up in the early 1980s. If melted down, the copper could be sold for more than one cent.

Scientific Notation Scientific Notation Converting Numbers to Scientific Notation How to Use a Scientific Calculator

Scientific Notation We often use very small and very large numbers in chemistry. Scientific notation is a method to express these numbers in a manageable fashion. Thus 0.000 000 1 cm can be written 1 x 10 -7 cm . Lets see why… Scientific notation expresses a number as the product of two factors, the first falling between 1 and 10 and the second being a power of 10.

Method to express really big or small numbers. Format is Mantissa x Base Power We just move the decimal point around. Decimal part of original number Decimal you moved 6.02 x 10 23 602000000000000000000000

chemical any substance that takes part in, or occurs as a result of, a chemical reaction All matter can be considered to be chemicals or mixtures of chemicals.

chemical reaction a rearrangement of atoms such that “what you end up with” products differs from “what you started with” reactants

methane + oxygen  + H 2 O( g ) carbon dioxide O 2 ( g ) CO 2 ( g ) CH 4 ( g ) +  water + 2 2  Combustion of a Hydrocarbon

Scientific Notation:  Powers of Ten Rules for writing numbers in scientific notation: Write all significant figures but only the significant figures. Place the decimal point after the first digit, making the number have a value between 1 and 10. Use the correct power of ten to place the decimal point properly, as indicated below.         a)  Positive exponents push the decimal point to the right.  The number becomes larger.              It is multiplied by the power of 10.         b)  Negative exponents push the decimal point to the left.  The number becomes smaller.              It is divided by the power of 10.         c)  10 o   =  1                     Examples:    3400  =  3.20 x 103                0.0120  =  1.20 x 10-2 Nice visual display of Powers of Ten ( a view from outer space to the inside of an atom ) viewed by powers of 10!

Reading a Vernier A Vernier allows a precise reading of some value. In the figure to the left, the Vernier moves up and down to measure a position on the scale. This could be part of a barometer which reads atmospheric pressure. The "pointer" is the line on the vernier labeled "0". Thus the measured position is almost exactly 756 in whatever units the scale is calibrated in. If you look closely you will see that the distance between the divisions on the vernier are not the same as the divisions on the scale. The 0 line on the vernier lines up at 756 on the scale, but the 10 line on the vernier lines up at 765 on the scale. Thus the distance between the divisions on the vernier are 90% of the distance between the divisions on the scale. http://www.upscale.utoronto.ca/PVB/Harrison/Vernier/Vernier.html 756

If we do another reading with the vernier at a different position, the pointer, the line marked 0, may not line up exactly with one of the lines on the scale. Here the "pointer" lines up at approximately 746.5 on the scale. If you look you will see that only one line on the vernier lines up exactly with one of the lines on the scale, the 5 line. This means that our first guess was correct: the reading is 746.5. 5 10 750 740 760 What is the reading now? 741.9 http://www.upscale.utoronto.ca/PVB/Harrison/Vernier/Vernier.html

750 740 760 Here is a final example, with the vernier at yet another position. The pointer points to a value that is obviously greater than 751.5 and also less than 752.0. Looking for divisions on the vernier that match a division on the scale, the 8 line matches fairly closely. So the reading is about 751.8. In fact, the 8 line on the vernier appears to be a little bit above the corresponding line on the scale. The 8 line on the vernier is clearly somewhat below the corresponding line of the scale. So with sharp eyes one might report this reading as 751.82 ± 0.02. This "reading error" of ± 0.02 is probably the correct error of precision to specify for all measurements done with this apparatus. 5 10 http://www.upscale.utoronto.ca/PVB/Harrison/Vernier/Vernier.html
