Key Topics to Revise
1
Fundamental Laws of Chemical Combinations
- Law of Conservation of Mass: Matter is neither created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. Mass of reactants = Mass of products
- Proposed by Antoine Lavoisier (Father of Modern Chemistry) based on closed system experiments
- Law of Constant Proportions: A given chemical substance always contains the same elements combined in fixed proportions by mass
2
Dalton's Atomic Theory
- Proposed by John Dalton to explain the fundamental laws of chemical combinations
- Postulate 1: Matter consists of indivisible particles called atoms
- Postulate 2: Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions - only rearranged
3
Symbols, Atomic Mass, and Mole Concept
- Element symbols: 1-2 letters, first always capital (H, O, Ca, Cl)
- Some symbols from Latin names: Na (Natrium), Fe (Ferrum), Au (Aurum)
- Atomic Mass Unit (amu) = 1/12th mass of Carbon-12 atom
4
Molecules, Atomicity, and Chemical Formulas
- Molecule: Smallest particle of substance retaining all properties
- Atomicity: Number of atoms in a molecule (monoatomic, diatomic, polyatomic)
- Examples: He (monoatomic), H₂ (diatomic), O₃ (triatomic), P₄ (tetraatomic)
