Matter and its Nature
Matter is a substance made up of various types of particles that occupies physical space
and has inertia. According to the principles of modern physics, the various types of
particles each have a specific mass and size. The most familiar examples of material
particles are the electron, the proton and the neutron.

 Properties of Matter
 Occupies place
 Having its weight
 Having quality of Inertia
 Change in its state

State of Matter
Physical State Chemical State
1) Physical state
 Solid state: having Definite Shape and Volume.
 Liquid State: having Indefinite shape and definite Volume.
 Gaseous state: having indefinite shape and Volume
 Plasma State: having indefinite shape and Volume (partially Gaseous Form)
2) Chemical State
 Elements
 Compounds
 Mixture

1) Element: An element is a substance which cannot be split up into two or more simpler
substances by usual chemical methods of applying heat, light or electric energy.
e. g. hydrogen, oxygen, sodium, chlorine etc.
 Elements are of two types that is Metals and Non- Metals as explained below:

 Metals:
 All metals are solid except Mercury. Example- Sodium, Gold, Silver, etc
 Release electrons to make Cations.
 Lustre(Shining) in nature.
 Electropositive
 Having solid State.
 Good Conductor of electricity.
 Malleability and Ductility in Nature.

 Having High Melting Point and Boiling Point.

 Non- Metals
 All Non- Metals are Solid or Gases. Example: Hydrogen, Oxygen
 Receive electrons to make Anions.
 Non- Lustre except Graphite.
 Electropositive.
 Having Solid and Gaseous State.
 Bad Conductor of electricity except Graphite.
 Having Brittle
 Having Low Melting Point and Boiling Point.
 Example: Sulphur(Solid State), Oxygen(Gaseous State), Bromine(Liquid State).

2) Compound: A compound is a substance made up of two or more elements


chemically combined in a fixed ratio by weight e.g. H2O (water), NaCl (sodium chlorid(e)
etc.

3) Mixture: A mixture is a substance which consists of two or more elements or compounds


not chemically combined together. e.g. Air is a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, inert gases,
water vapour, carbon dioxide etc. Mixtures are impure substances. Types of mixtures: They
are of two types:
a) Homogeneous mixture: It has a uniform composition throughout and its components
cannot be distinguished visually. e.g. A well mixed sample of vinegar.

b) Heterogeneous mixture: It is one that is not uniform throughout. Different samples of


a heterogeneous mixture may have different composition. e.g. a mixture of salt and
pepper.

 Important process
 Freezing: Heat transfer occurs between the warmer tray and the colder air
in the freezer. The warm water loses heat to the cold air in the freezer. This
heat transfer occurs until no energy is available for the particles to slide past
each other. This forces them to remain in fixed positions, locked in place by
the force of attraction between them. This way liquid water is changed into
solid ice. The process of liquid water changing to solid ice is termed as
freezing. The temperature at which it occurs is known as the freezing point.

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
 Melting: If you took out the ice cubes from the freezer and placed them in a
warm room, the ice would absorb energy from the warmer air around them. This
absorbed energy would facilitate them to overcome the force of attraction holding
them together, enabling them to slip out of the fixed position that they held as ice.
The process in which a solids change to a liquid is called melting. The melting point
is the temperature at which a solids change to a liquid.

 Vaporization: If the water is hot enough, it starts to boil. Bubbles of water vapor
are formed in the boiling water. This happens as particles of liquid water gain
enough energy to completely overcome the force of attraction between them
and change to the gaseous state. The bubbles rise through the water and escape
from the pot as steam. The process in which a liquid boils and changes to a gas is
called vaporization. The temperature at which a liquid boils is its boiling point.

 Condensation: When you take a hot shower in a closed bathroom, the mirror is
likely to fog up. You may wonder why does this happen? Some hot water from the
shower evaporates and when it comes in contact with cooler surfaces such as the
mirror, it cools and loses energy. The cooler water particles no longer have the
energy to overcome the forces of attraction between them. They come together
and form droplets of liquid water. This process in which a gas changes to liquid is
known as condensation.

 Sublimation: The process in which solids directly change to gases is known as


sublimation. This occurs when solids absorb enough energy to completely
overcome the forces of attraction between them. Dry ice is an example of solids
that undergo sublimation.

 Simple Distillation: Simple distillation involves heating the liquid mixture to the
boiling point and immediately condensing the resulting vapours.This method is only
effective for mixtures wherein the boiling points of the liquids are considerably
different (a minimum difference of 25ºC). The purity of the distillate (the purified
liquid) is governed by Raoult’s law.

 Fractional Distillation: Fractional distillation is often used to separate mixtures


of liquids that have similar boiling points. It involves several vaporization-
condensation steps (which takes place in a fractioning column). This process is also
known as rectification.

 Steam Distillation: Steam distillation is often used to separate heat-sensitive
components in a mixture. This is done by passing steam through the mixture (which
is slightly heated) to vaporize some of it. The process establishes a high heat-transfer
rate without the need for high temperatures. The resulting vapor is condensed to
afford the required distillate. The process of steam distillation is used to obtain
essential oils and herbal distillates from several aromatic flowers/herbs
 Solution: It is a homogeneous mixture of two or more substances whose composition
can be varied. e.g. Solution of common salt in water, solution of ammonia in water.
Separating the components of a mixture: Various methods are used for separating the
constituents of a mixture.
1. Insoluble solid in solvent - Sedimentation followed by filtration. In case of a
fine solid centrifugation is used instead of filtration
2. Solution of solid in liquid - Evaporation, crystallization, distillation
3. Miscible mixture of liquids - Fractional distillation
4. Immiscible mixture of liquids - Separating funnel
5. Mixture of two solids one of which is sublime – Sublimation
6. Mixture of substances in solution – Chromatography

 Solute: The component of solution that is dissolved and present in smaller quantities in a
solution is known as solute. e.g. common salt in case of solution of common salt in water
and ammonia in case of solution of ammonia in water.

 Solvent: The component of solution in which solute is dissolved is known as solvent. It is


always present in larger amount in a solution. e.g. water in case of the solution of common
salt or ammonia in water.

Types of Solution
 Saturated Solution: A solution in which no more solute can be dissolved at the same
temperature is called Saturated solution.

 Unsaturated Solution: It is a solution in which more solute can be dissolved at the


same temperature.

 Super-saturated Solution: It is a solution which contains more mass of the dissolved


solute than the saturated solution at the same temperature and pressure.

 Alloys: Alloys are homogeneous mixtures of metal and cannot separated into their
components by physical methods. e.g. Brass is a mixture of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn).

 Concentration of a solution: Concentration of a solution is the amount of solute
present in a given amount (mass or volume of a solution or the amount of solute dissolved
in a given mass or volume of a solvent.
Amount of solute Concentration = Amount of solvent

 Solubility: It is defined as the amount of solute dissolved in 100g of solvent to form a


saturated solution.
 Suspension: It is a non-homogeneous mixture in which solids are dispersed in liquids. In it
the solute particles do not dissolve but remains suspended through out the bulk of the
medium.

 Colloids or colloidal solution: Colloid is a heterogeneous mixture. The size of


particles of a colloid is intermediate between true solutions and suspensions (i.e,
between 1nm and 100 nm). The particles of a colloid cannot be seen with naked
eye. Types of colloidal solution: Since colloidal solution is heterogeneous mixture it
consists of two phases. These are
(i) dispersed phase (colloidal particles)
(ii) dispersion medium (The medium in which colloidal particles are dispersed.

 Emulsion: Emulsions are liquid-liquid colloids. Types of Emulsion: Emulsions are of two
types:
(i) water in oil
(ii) oil in water
 Emulsifiers are those substances that help in forming stable emulsions of oil and water,
e.g. milk, cod-liver oil, cold creams, vanishing creams, moisturising cream, paints, etc.

STRUCTURE OF ATOM
The atomic theory of matter was first proposed by John Dalton Fundamental particles of an atom
are Electron, Proton and Neutron.

 Proton(p):
 Discovered by E. Goldstein.
 Protons are positively charged.
 The absolute charge on the electron to be + 1.6 x 10-19 C.

 Electron (e):
 Discovered by J.J. Thomson when he was studying the properties of cathode
ray.
 Irish physicist George Johnstone Stoney named this charge 'electron' in 1891.

 Electrons are negatively charged.
 The absolute charge on the electron to be - 1.6 x 10-19 C.
 e/me as: 1.758820 x 1011 C kg-1
 The charge of an electron was measured by R. Millikan in Oil drop
experiment.

 Neutrons (n)
 Discovered by J. Chadwick
 It has no charge and a mass nearly equal to that of a proton
 The mass of a neutron is taken as one unit each

 Atomic nucleus - Discovered by E Rutherford


 The fast moving alpha (a)-particles (doubly-charged helium ions) were made
to fall on a thin gold foil.
 The mass of an atom is the sum of the masses of protons and neutrons present
in the nucleus.

 Valency
 The number of electrons gained, lost or shared so as to make the octet of
electrons in the outermost shell, is called valency.
 The atoms of elements, having a completely filled outermost shell show little
chemical activity, their valency is zero.
 An outermost-shell, which had eight electrons is said to possess an octet.
Atoms would thus react, so as to achieve an octet in the outermost shell.
 The chemical behaviour of an atom depend upon the number of electrons
orbiting around the nucleus.

 Atomic Number (Z)


 The atomic number is defined as the total number of protons present in the
nucleus of an atom. It is denoted by "Z".
 Mass number
 The mass number is defined as the sum of the total number of nucleons
(protons and neutrons) present in the nucleus of an atom.

 Isotopes
 Atoms which have the same atomic number but different mass numbers. The
chemical properties of isotopes are similar but their physical properties are
different. But some isotopes have special properties which find them useful in
various fields. Some of them are:
I. An isotope of uranium is used as a fuel in nuclear reactors.
II. An isotope of cobalt is used in the treatment of cancer.
III. An isotope of iodine is used in the treatment of goiter.

Radioactive isotopes
 Arsenic-74-detect tumors
 Sodium-24 Blood clot
 lodine-131 Activity of thyroid gland
 Cobalt-60 Treat of cancer

 Isobars-Atoms of different elements with different atomic numbers, which have


the same mass number, are known as isobars.

 Isotones - Atoms having same number of neutrons.

 Isoelectronics - Isoelectronic refers to two atoms, ions or molecules that have


the same electronic structure and same number of valence electrons.

 Mass defect - The mass defect is the difference between the rest mass of a
nucleus and the sum of the rest masses of its constituent nucleons.

PH SCALE
The p in pH stands for 'potenz in German, meaning power. The scale that measures the
strength of an acid or a base is called the pH scale. This value lies between 0 and 14.
 Higher the hydronium ion concentration, lower is the pH value.
 The pH of a neutral solution is 7. Values less than 7 on the pH scale represent an
acidic solution. As the pH value increases from 7 to 14, it represents an increase in
OH- ion concentration in the solution, that is, increase in the strength of alkali.
 Most food crops grow best at a PH of 7-7.8.If the soil is too acidic then its pH can be
raised by adding lime or slaked lime which neutralizes the excess acid in the soil.
Similarly, if the soil is too alkaline then its pH can be lowered by adding gypsum or
some other substance which can neutralize the excess alkali present in the soil.
 The medium in our stomach is highly acidic and has pH around 1.2. Our stomach
produces hydrochloric acid which helps in digestion of food. Magnesium hydroxide
(Milk of magnesia), a mild base, is an antacid which neutralises the excess acid.
 Tooth decay starts when the pH of the mouth is lower than 5.5.
 Acid Rain- When pH of rain water is less than 5.6, it is called acid rain.

Synthetic Materials: The materials created by man using the natural materials, are known
as synthetic materials.

Cement
 It was discovered by an English Mason, Joseph Aspdin in 1824. He called it Portland
cement because he thought that it resembled the limestone found in Portland.
 It is a complex mixture of Calcium silicates & Aluminium silicates.
 Raw materials are limestone provides (lime), clay (provides alumina and silica),
gypsum (reduces the setting time of cement).
 When water is mixed with cement and left as such for sometime, it becomes a hard
mass. This is know as setting of cement. It is an exothermic process, therefore
cement structures have to be cooled upto 7 days by sprinkling water.
 Mortar is a mixture of cement, sand and water. It is used for plastering walls and
binding bricks and stones.
 Concrete is a mixtures of cement, sand, gravel or small pieces of stone and water.
It is used for the construction of floors.
 The structure having iron rods embedded in wet concrete, is known as reinforced
concrete.

Approximate Composition of Portland cement


 Calcium oxide (CaO) : 60-70%
 Silica (SiO2): 20-25%
 Alumina (Al2O3): 5-10%
 Magnesium Oxide(MgO): 2- 5 %
 Ferric oxide(Fe2O3): 1- 2 %
 Gypsum(CaSO4.2H2O): 2-5%
 Sulphur trioxide(SO3): 0-1%

Glass (Na O.CaO.6SiO2)

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
 It is a supercooled liquid of silicates.
 Raw material used for the formation of glass are sodium carbonate, calcium
carbonate and sand.
 Finely powdered mixture known as batch, is mixed with cullet (broken glass pieces)
and then fused in a tank furnace at 1673 K. After few hours, molten glass is
obtained.
 Molten glass is cooled slowly and uniformly. The process of slow and uniform cooling
is known as Annealing.
 Different addition may produce different coloured glasses.

SOME COMMON ELEMENTS & COMPOUNDS
1. Carbon:
 Carbon exhibits allotropy and shows maximum catenation.
 Carbon occurs both in free state as diamond, coal etc. and also in the combined
form as CO2.
 Diamond is one of the allotropic forms of carbon and is the purest form of natural
carbon. It is the hardest natural substance.
 Graphite is also an allotropic form of carbon, which is very soft and slippery.
Graphite are prepared artificially by Acheson process.
 Fullerene (C60) looks like a soccer ball. It contains 20 six membered and 12-five
membered rings of carbon atoms.
 Graphene is an allotrope of carbon. It is a strong substance and used as a
conducting material for touch screen, LCD and LED.

Compounds of Carbon
 Carbon monoxide (CO)
 Carbon monoxide (CO) combines with haemoglobin to form carboxyhaemoglobin
which is not able to absorb oxygen and as a result of this, suffocation takes place
(Asphyxi(a).
 The death of persons in closed rooms with wood, coal or coke fires and in closed
bathrooms with gas geyser is due to the formation of carbon monoxide.

 Carbon dioxide (CO2)


 0.03-0.05 percent in atmosphere.
 Solid CO2 is known as dry ice. It is used in refrigerators under the name drikold. It is
used in transport of perishable food materials as it provides cold as well as the inert
atmosphere.

 Carbides
 They are the compounds of carbon with metals or electronegative elements.
 Destructive distillation of coal gives products like coal gas, gas carbon, coal tar and
ammonical liquor.
 Lamp Black is also known as Soot.

2. Nitrogen:
 Nitrogen is a neutral gas and is neither combustible nor a supporter of
combustion.

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
 In air - 79% of Nitrogen is present (by volume). In combined state, nitrogen is
found as nitrates (Chile) saltpetre-sodium nitrate (NaNO3), Indian saltpetre --
potassium nitrate (KNO3)

Compounds of Nitrogen
 Ammonia
 It is prepared from nitrogen and hydrogen by Haber's process. It has pungent odour.
 Ammonia is used in manufacturing fertilizers and explosives etc.
 Nitrogen fixation involves the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen into nitrate by lightning
and by nitrogen fixing bacteria called Rhizobia.

3. Oxygen:
 Oxygen is an important constituent of atmosphere (21% by volume). Supporter of
combustion.
 Liquid oxygen mixed with freshly divided carbon, is used in place of dynamite in
coal mining.
 Ozone(O3) It protects the life on the earth by not allowing UV rays to reach the
Earth. The common refrigerants, chlorofluorocarbons deplete this ozone layer.
 Its bleaching action is due to its oxidizing action.
 Ozone is also used as a germicide and disinfectant, for sterilizing water.

4. Phosphorus (P):
 It is highly reactive non-metal, so it occurs only in combined state.
 Phosphorus is an essential constituent of bones, teeth, blood and nerve tissues.
Bone ash contains about 80% of phosphorus.

5. Sulphur (S):
 It occurs in free state in volcanic region.
 Rhombic sulphur is the most stable form at ordinary temperature and all other
forms gradually change into this form.

Compounds of Sulphur
 Sulphuric acid is also known as oil of vitriol or king of chemicals. It has a great affinity for
water and thus it acts as a powerful dehydrating agent. Corrosive action of sulphuric is due
to its dehydrating action.
 Hypo (Sodium thiosulphate) It is mainly used in photography as a fixing agent. It is used to
remove undecomposed silver halide on photographic paper or film.

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
6. Halogens:
Halogens are highly reactive elements and therefore, they do not exist in free state but
exist only in combined form. Halogens have highest electron affinity so they act as
strong oxidizing agent. Their oxidizing power decreases from fluorine to iodine.
 Chlorine:
 Chlorine was first discovered by Scheele (1774)
 Chlorine is used as a germicide, disinfectant, oxidizing agent, bleaching agent in
paper and textile industry.
 Chlorine being an acidic gas turns moist blue litmus paper to red and then bleaches
it.

 Iodine (I2)
 Chile saltpeter or caliche contains iodine as sodium iodate (5-20%).
 It turns starch solution blue. Solution of KI/ I2, is used in the treatment of goiter. It is
used as an antiseptic as tincture of iodine.

7. Noble Gases
 Helium (H(e), Neon (N(e), Argon (Ar), Krypton (Kr), Xenon (X(e) and Radon (Rn)
are known as inert gases or noble gases or rare gases.
 These elements have completely filled valence shell.
 It atmosphere, argon is most abundant noble gas but in universe, helium is most
abundant gas.
 Natural gas in the most important source of helium.
 The mixture of helium and oxygen is used for artificial breathing of asthama
patients.
 85% helium + 15% hydrogen is used for filling in balloons and airships.
 Mixture of helium and oxygen is used for respiration by sea divers.

Polymerization
 Polymers are defined as high molecular mass macromolecules, which consist of repeating
structural units derived from the corresponding monomers.
 Polymers occur in nature also. Cotton, for example, is a polymer called cellulose. Cellulose
is made up of a large number of glucose units.
 On the basis of intermolecular forces Polymers are classified as:
1) Elastomers- rubber, buna-S, buna-N, neoprene etc
2) Fibres - polyamides (nylon 6, 6), polyesters (Terylene),etc.
3) Thermoplastic polymers - Such plastic which gets deformed easily on heating and
can be bent easily are known as thermoplastics. Polythene and PVC, Polythene,
Polystyrene, Polyvinyls, etc.
4) Thermosetting Polymers - some plastics which when moulded once, can not be
softened by heating. These are called thermosetting plastics.eg: bakelite, melamine
etc.

 Few important polymers are:


A. Polythene:
 Low density polythene - polymerisation of ethene under high pressure in the
presence of traces of dioxygen or a peroxide initiator (catalyst).
 High density Polythene - polymerisation of ethene in the presence of a
catalyst such as triethylaluminium and titanium tetrachloride (Ziegler-Natta
catalyst).
B. Polytetrafluoroethene (Teflon)- Teflon is manufactured by heating
tetrafluoroethene with a free radical or persulphate catalyst at high pressures.

C. Polyacrylonitrile - polymer of acrylonitrile in presence of a peroxide catalyst.

Condensation Polymerisation
 Polyamides - possess amide linkages
 Nylon 6, 6 - prepared by the condensation polymerization of
hexamethylenediamine with adipic acid under high pressure and at high
temperature
 Nylon 6- obtained by heating caprolactum with water at a high temperature.

 Polyesters- polycondensation products of dicarboxylic acids and diols. Polyester is


another synthetic fibre. Fabric made from this fibre does not get wrinkled easily. It remains
crisp and is easy to wash. So, it is quite suitable for making dress material.

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
Eg: Terylene is the best known example of polyesters. It is prepared by ethylene glycol and
terephthalic acid. It can be drawn into very fine fibres that can be woven like any other
yarn.

 Phenol - formaldehyde polymer (Bakelite and related polymers)


Prepared by the condensation reaction of phenol with formaldehyde in the presence of
either an acid or a base catalyst.
The initial product could be a linear product - Novolac used in paints. Novolac on heating
with formaldehyde undergoes cross linking to form an infusible solid mass called bakelite. It
is used for making combs, phonograph records, electrical switches and handles of various
utensils. Eg. Melamine - Melamine formaldehyde polymer is formed by the condensation
polymerisation of melamine and formaldehyde. Melamine is a versatile material. It resists
fire and can tolerate heat better than other plastics. It is used for making floor tiles,
kitchenware and fabrics which resist fire. It is used in the manufacture of unbreakable
crockery.

Copolymerisation
 Natural rubber - Natural rubber may be considered as a linear polymer of isoprene
(2-methyl-1, 3-butadien(e) and is also called as cis-1, 4-polyisoprene.

 Vulcanisation of rubber-This process consists of heating a mixture of raw rubber


with sulphur and an appropriate additive at a temperature range between 373 K to 415 K
so that rubber gets stiffened.

Synthetic Rubbers
1) Neoprene - by the free radical polymerisation of chloroprene.

2) Rayon - rayon or artificial silk. Although rayon is obtained from a natural source, wood
pulp, yet it is a man-made fibre.

3) Nylon - Nylon is also used for making parachutes and ropes for rock climbing. A nylon
thread is actually stronger than a steel wire.

Periodic Table
 Newlands’ law of octaves
 Law of octaves, in chemistry, the generalization made by the English chemist
J.A.R. Newlands in 1865 that, if the chemical elements are arranged according
to increasing atomic weight, those with similar physical and chemical properties
occur after each interval of seven elements. In 1864, Newlands made an
attempt to classify elements. There are seven musical notes in music. Every
eighth note is similar to the first one and it is the first note of the nest scale.
Similarly, Newland stated that the eighth element starting from a given one is a
kind of repetition of the first like the eighth notes of an octave of music. So he
called this relationship as the Law of octaves.
 In Newland’s table of elements lithium, sodium and potassium occupied places
near each other.

 Fluorine and chlorine or oxygen and sulphur were placed near each other.

 Note: This classification worked well with the elements with small atomic weights
but failed in the case of elements with large atomic weights.

 Mendeleev’s table
 Mendeleev published in 1869, using atomic weight to organize the elements, information
determinable to fair precision in his time. Atomic weight worked well enough to allow
Mendeleev to accurately predict the properties of missing elements.
 The atomic number is the absolute definition of an element and gives a factual basis for the
ordering of the periodic table.
 Mendeleev realized that the physical and chemical properties of elements were related to
their atomic mass in a ‘periodic’ way, and arranged them so that groups of elements with
similar properties fell into vertical columns in his table. Modern-day periodic tables are
expanded beyond Mendeleev’s initial 63 elements.

 Modern Periodic Table

1) VALENCY: Valency may be defined as “the combining capacity of the atom of


an element with atoms of other elements in order to acquire the stable
configuration (i.e. 8 electrons in the valence shell. In some special cases it is 2
electrons).”

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
2) ATOMIC SIZE:

 It refers to the distance between the centre of the nucleus of an isolated atom to its
outermost shell containing electrons.
 The atomic radius decreases on moving from left to right along a period. This is due
to an increase in nuclear charge which tends to pull the electrons closer to the
nucleus and reduces the size of the atom.
 In a group, atomic size increases from top to bottom due to the increase in a
number of shells.

3) METALLIC AND NON-METALLIC PROPERTIES


 In a period from left to right metallic nature decreases while non-metallic character
increases.
 In a group metallic character increases from top to bottom while non-metallic
character decrease.

4) ELECTRONEGATIVITY: The relative tendency of an atom to attract the shared


pair of electrons towards itself is called electronegativity. In a period from left to
right, the value of electronegativity increases while in a group from top to bottom
the value of electronegativity decreases.

5) IONIZATION ENERGY
 The ionization energy (IE) is the amount of energy required to remove the most
loosely bound electron, the valence electron, of an isolated gaseous atom to form
a cation.
 In a period from left to right, the value of ionization energy increases while in a
group from top to bottom the value of ionization energy decreases.

6) ELECTRON AFFINITY: The electron affinity of an atom or molecule is defined as


the amount of energy released or spent when an electron is added to a neutral
atom or molecule in the gaseous state to form a negative ion. In a period from left
to right, the value of electron affinity increases while in a group from top to bottom
the value of electron affinity decreases.

List periodic table elements


 Group 1 (Alkali Metals)
The alkali metals are the series of elements in Group 1 of the periodic table. The
series consists of the elements lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb),
caesium (Cs), and francium (Fr).

TRICK: LiNa ki Rubi Se Friendship ho gyi.

Lithium(Li) + Sodium(Na) Pottasium(k) Rubidium(Rb) caesium (Cs) francium (Fr).

Properties:

 The alkali metals are silver-coloured (caesium has a golden tinge), soft, low-density
metals.

 These elements all have one valence electron which is easily lost to form an ion with
a single positive charge.

 They have the lowest ionization energies in their respective periods. This makes
them very reactive and they are the most active metals.

 Due to their activity, they occur naturally in ionic compounds, not in their elemental
state.

 The alkali metals react readily with halogens to form ionic salts, such as table salt,
sodium chloride (NaCl).

 They react with water to liberate hydrogen gas.

CHEMICAL REACTIONS AND EQUATION
 Physical Change: The change that only affect physical properties, but the
chemical compositions remains unchanged, are called physical change.
 These can be reversed by changing the conditions of temperature and
pressure, boiling, cutting of trees, dissolving common salt in water burning of
wax.

 Chemical Change: The change which affect the composition as well as


chemical properties of matter and result in the formation of a new substance is
called a chemical change.
 Chemical changes are generally irreversible. Some examples of chemical
changes are burning of candle (gases), photosynthesis, ripening of fruits,
electrolysis of water.
 A chemical reaction involves bond breaking or bond formation between any
two atoms to produce new substances.

Laws of Chemical Combination - There are three laws of Chemical combination.


1. Law of conservation of mass: This law was stated by Lavoisier in 1744. It states
that "In all physical and chemical changes, the total mass of reactants is equal to
total mass of products."

2. Law of constant proportions (or constant composition): This law was first
stated by Proust in 1797. According to the law "a chemical compound is always
found to be made up of the same elements combined together in the same
proportions by weight" e.g. the ratio of hydrogen and oxygen in pure water is
always 1 : 8 by weight. This law is also called law of definite proportions.

3. Law of multiple proportions: This law was given by John Dalton (1803) and
states that "when two elements combine to form two or more compounds, the
different mass of one of the elements and the fixed mass of the one with which it
combines always form a whole number ratio". This law explains the concept of
formation of more than one compound by two elements.

Types of Chemical Reactions.


 Exothermic Reactions: Reactions in which heat is released along with the
formation of products, are called exothermic reactions.

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
 Endothermic Reactions: Burning of fuel is an example of exothermic
reaction. Reactions in which heat is absorbed, are known as endothermic
reactions.

Oxidation
 Oxidation is removal of electrons.
 Oxidation means: addition of oxygen and removal of hydrogen.

Reduction
 Reduction is the addition of electrons.
 Reductions means: Removal of oxygen and Addition of hydrogen.

Oxidizing agent
 The substance that causes oxidation is called the oxidizing agent.
 Acceptors of electrons.
 It is a substance which removes the electron from an atom.
 It brings about oxidation.

Reducing agent
 The substance that causes reduction is called the reducing agent.
 Donors of electrons.
 It is a substance which adds electrons to an atom.
 It brings about reduction.

 REDOX REACTION: A reaction which involves oxidation and reduction


occurring simultaneously together are called redox reaction. Photosynthesis in
plants digestion of food in animals; dry and wet batteries and corrosion of metals
are diverse examples of oxidation and reduction reactions.

Electrolysis
 Electrolysis is carried out in an electrolytic cell.
 A simple electrolytic cell consists of two copper strips dipping in an aqueous solution
of copper sulphate.
 On applying DC voltage to the two electrodes, copper metal is deposited on
cathode and copper is dissolved at anode.

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
 Used In the purification of impure metals.
 In the extraction of metals The blocks used in typing industries are prepared by
electrolysis.
 Steel is coated with zinc metal during the process of galvanization.

Batteries
These convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Mainly two types of batteries are
used, i.e. primary and secondary.

Primary Batteries
In the primary batteries, reaction occurs only once and after a period of time
battery becomes dead.

 Dry Cell or Leclanche Cell: It consists of a zinc container that acts as


anode and the cathode is a carbon (graphite) rod surrounded by powdered
manganese dioxide and carbon.
A moist paste of ammonium chloride (NH,CI) and zinc chloride (ZnCl2) is used as an
electrolyte. Dry cell is commonly used in our transistors and clocks.

 Mercury Cell: It is commonly used in low current devices such as hearing aids,
watches etc.
The electrolyte is a past of potassium hydroxide (KOH) and zinc oxide (ZnO).

Secondary Batteries
 Lead Storage Battery
It consists of a lead as anode and a grid of lead packed with lead dioxide (PbO2)
as cathode.
A 38% solution of sulphuric acid is used as an electrolyte. On charging the battery,
the reaction is reversed and lead sulphate gives lead on anode and cathode is
converted into lead dioxide respectively.

 Nickel Cadmium Cell


It has longer life that the lead storage cell. It consists of a cadmium as anode and
nickel dioxide as cathode. The electrolyte is a potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution.

 Fuel Cells
Fuel cells convert energy from the combustion of fuels such as hydrogen, carbon
monoxide, methane directly into electrical energy
A fuel cell with hydrogen and oxygen has been used for electric power in Apollo
Space Programme.

Corrosion
 When iron is exposed to moist air for a long period of time, its surface acquires a
coating of brown flaky substance called rust.
 Rust is mainly hydrated iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3.xH2O).
 In corrosion, a metal is oxidized by the loss of electrons to oxygen and form oxide.
 The rusting of iron can be prevented by painting, oiling and greasing, galvanizing
(by coating iron objects with zin(c), chrome plating etc.

Catalysis
 A catalyst is a substance which alter the rate of reaction.
 The catalyst itself does not alter during the reaction.
 The phenomena in which the rate of reaction is altered by the presence of a
substance (catalyst) is known as catalysis.
 Catalysts are specific in their action.
 A catalyst does not change the equilibrium state of a reversible reaction, only
brings it quickly.
 The main function of a catalyst in a reaction is to decrease the activation energy.

Applications of Catalysts in Industrial Processes


 Haber process for ammonia-- Iron is used as a catalyst and molybdenum is used as
a promoter of catalyst iron.
 Contact process for Sulphuric acid--- Vanadium pentoxide is used as a catalyst.
 Ostwald process for Nitric acid---- Platinum gauze is used as a catalyst.

Chemical Bonding
 Chemical Bonding
Constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) of different elements except noble gases, do not
have complete octet so they combine with other constituent atoms by chemical bonds to
achieve complete (stable) octet. The process of their combination is called chemical
bonding. Chemical bonding depends upon the valency of atoms.

Types of Chemical Bond


They are divided in the following types depending upon the mode electron transferred or shared
electrons or forces of attraction

 Electrovalent or ionic bond


 Covalent bond
 Coordinate or dative covalent bond
 Van der Waal's forces
 Hydrogen bond

 Electrovalent Bond
 The bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another is called
electrovalent bond and the compound is called electrovalent compound or ionic
compound.
 These bonds are formed between metals and non-metals.
 These conduct electricity when dissolved in water and also soluble in water. These
are insoluble in organic solvents like alcohol etc.

Some Electrovalent Compounds (Ionic Compounds)

Name Formula Ions Present


Aluminium Oxide Al2O3 Al3+ & O2-
Ammonium Chloride NH4Cl NH4+ & Cl-
Calcium Chloride CaCl2 Ca2+ & Cl-

 Covalent Bond
 The bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms of same (or
different) elements, is called covalent bond.
 Covalent bond may be single, double or triple depends upon the number of sharing
pairs of electrons.

Telegram- https://t.me/gvwitmover
 Covalent compounds are usually liquids or gases having low melting point and
boiling point. These do not conduct electricity and are insoluble in water but dissolve
in organic solvent.

Some Covalent Compounds


Name Formula Element's part

Alcohol (Ethanol) C₂H₂OH C, H and O

Ammonia NH3 N and H

Acetylene (Ethyne) C₂H₂ Cand H

 Coordinate or Dative Bond


 The bond is formed by one sided sharing of one pair of electrons between two
atoms. The necessary condition for the formation of coordinate bond is that octet of
one atom should be complete, having at least one lone pair of electrons and other
atom should have a deficiency of at least one pair of electrons.
 The atom having complete octet which provides the electron pair for sharing, is
known as donor.
 The other atom which accept the electron pair, is called the acceptor.

Bonding between A and B is predominantly


 lonic if there is large difference in electronegativity.
 Covalent if both A and B have approximately same value of
electronegativity.
 Coordinate if lone pair on A (or (B) is donated to electron deficient B or A.

 Hydrogen Bond
 The electrostatic force of attraction between hydrogen atom (which is covalently
bonded to a highly electronegative atom) and any other electronegative atom
which is present in the same or different molecules, is known as hydrogen bond.
 It is maximum in the solid state and minimum in the gaseous state.
 Intermolecular H-bonding (e.g. HF, water (H2O) molecule) It occurs between
different molecules of a compound and results in increasing solubility in water and
high boiling point.

 Intramolecular H-bonding
It occurs within different parts of a same molecule and results in decreasing solubility in
water and low boiling point. (e.g. o-nitrophenol)

 Van der Waals' Forces


The ability of geckos (lizard) which can hang on a glass surface using only one toe to climb
on sheer surfaces had been attributed to the Van der Waals forces between these surfaces
and their foot-pads.

ATMOSPHERIC POLLUTION
 Atmospheric pollution
 The substance which causes pollution is known as pollutant.
 Pollutants are of two types

 Primary pollutants: persist in the environment in the form, they are produced, e.g.
sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) etc.

 Secondary pollutants are the products of reaction of primary pollutants, e.g.


peroxyacetye nitrate (PAN), ozone(O3) aldehyde etc.

Major Gaseous Air Pollutants


Major gaseous air pollutants are oxides of sulphur, nitrogen, carbon and hydrocarbons.

 Sulphur dioxide (SO2)


 It is highly toxic for both animals and plants, bronchitis, asthma, emphysema.
 It also causes eye and throat irritation and breathlessness.
 Sulphur dioxide reduces the rate of formation of chloroplast and thus, causes
chlorosis. SO2 is highly corrosive and damage buildings, marbles (Taj Mahal) and
textiles.
 SO2 is oxidized to SO3 which reacts with water to give H₂SO4 . H₂SO4 remains
suspended in the air as droplets or come down in the form of acid rain.

 Oxides of nitrogen
 Among the oxides of nitrogen, nitric oxide (NO), a colourless, odourless gas and
nitrogen dioxide (NO2), a brown gas with pungent odour act as tropospheric
pollutants.
 NO2 is highly toxic for living tissues causes leaf fall. It is a corrosive oxide and helps in
the formation of smog.
 In the presence of oxygen, NO2 reacts with water or moisture and produces nitric
acid (HNO3) which is an important factor for making acid rain.

 Carbon monoxide (CO)


 From more stable carboxyhaemoglobin complex with haemoglobin due to which
the delivery of oxygen to the organs and tissues is blocked.

 Hydrocarbons
Out of the hydrocarbons, methane (CH4)is the most abundant hydrocarbon pollutant.
Higher concentrations of hydrocarbons given carcinogenic effect, i.e. are cancer

producing. They cause ageing of plants, breakdown of plant tissues and shedding of
leaves.

Consequences of Atmospheric Pollution


 Green House Effect: Green house gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and water
vapours trap the heat radiated from Earth. This leads to an increase in Earth's temperature.
This heating up of Earth and its objects due to the trapping of infrared radiation by green
house gases in the atmosphere, is called green house effect.

 Global Warming: Green house effect is very essential for the existence of life because
in its absence, Earth would be converted into extremely cold planet. When concentration
of green house gases increases, green house effect also increases. This is known as global
warming.

 Acid rain: It is caused by the presence of oxides of nitrogen and sulphur in the air. These
oxides dissolve in rain water and from nitric acid and sulphuric acid respectively. The rain
carrying acids, is called acid rain.

 Smog: It is two types: Classical smog & Photochemical smog


 Classical smog : These occur in cool, humid climate. Sulphur dioxide (SO2) and
particulate matter from fuel combustion are the main components of classical
smog.

 Photochemical smog: These occur in warm, dry and sunny climate. It consists of a
mixture of primary pollutants (nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxides) and
secondary pollutants (ozone, formaldehyde).

Peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) and aldehydes present in smog causes irritation in eyes.
PAN has the highest toxicity to plants. It attacks younger leaves and causes bronzing
and glazing of their surfaces.

 Stratospheric Pollution: In stratosphere, ozone layer absorbs the ultraviolet


radiation of the Sun which are harmful to living organisms.

 Depletion of ozone layer: causes skin cancer and cataract in human and
reduction of planktons in ocean and depletion of plants. Depletion of ozone layer is
caused by chlorofluoro carbons which are used in refrigeration, fire extinguishers and
aerosol sprayers.

In stratosphere, the depletion of ozone layer leading to ozone hole has been mainly
observed in the stratosphere of Antarctica. The formation of this hole occur due to the
accumulation of special clouds in the region called Polar Stratospheric Clouds (PSCs) and
inflow of chlorofluoro carbons (CFCs).

Water pollution
 In some part of India, drinking water is contaminated by the impurities of arsenic, fluoride,
uranium, etc. In water, some dissolved Oxygen (DO) is also present. For a healthy aquatic
life, the optimum value of DO is 5-6 ppm.
 If DO is below 5 ppm, the growth of fishes is inhibited.
 Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) is the total amount of oxygen (in mg) required by
microbes to decompose the organic matter present in 11 of water sample while Chemical
Oxygen Demand (COD) refers to the total amount of oxygen (in ppm) consumed by the
pollutants in a water sample.

 BOD = (
(
)
)

 For clean water, BOD is less than 5 ppm while for highly polluted water, it is 17 ppm or more.

PROPERTIES OF GASES
 Properties of Gases
 Gas has no definite volume or shape.
 The other outstanding characteristic of gases is their low densities, compared with
those of liquids and solids.
 All gases expand equally due to equal temperature difference.
 Diffusion of gases: The phenomenon in which a substance mixes with another
because of molecular motion, even against gravity- is called diffusion.
 The pressure of a gas: The molecules of a gas, being in continuous motion,
frequently strike the inner walls of their container
 Temperature and Temperature Scales: Temperature is defined as the measure of
average heat. Temperature is independent of the number of particles or size and
shape of the object.

 Compressibility: Particles of a gas have large intermolecular spaces among them.


By the application of pressure much of this space can be reduced and the particles be
brought closer. Hence, the volume of a gas can be greatly reduced. This is called
compressing the gas.

 Gas Laws: All gases, irrespective of their chemical composition, obey certain laws that
govern the relationship between the volume, temperature and pressure of the gases. A
given mass of a gas, under definite conditions of temperature and pressure, occupies a
definite volume.
When any of the three variables is altered, then the other variables get altered. Thus these
Gas laws establish relationships between the three variables of volume, pressure and
temperature of a gas.

 Boyle's Law: "The product of the volume and pressure of a given mass of dry gas is
constant, at constant temperature".

 Charles Law: "At constant pressure, the volume of a given mass of gas increases or
decreases by 1/273 of its original volume at 32°F, for each degree centigrade rise or
lowering in temperature."

 Pressure Law: Volume remaining constant, the pressure of a given mass of gas
increases or decreases by a constant fraction (=1/273) of its pressure at 0°C for each
degree Celsius rise or fall of temperature.

 Avogadro's Law: This is quite intuitive: the volume of a gas confined by a fixed
pressure varies directly with the quantity of gas. Equal volumes of gases, measured at the
same temperature and pressure, contain equal numbers of molecules. Avogadro's law thus
predicts a directly proportional relation between the number of moles of a gas and its
volume.

 Gay-Lussac's Law: When different gases react with each other chemically to
produce gaseous substances, then under the same condition of temperature and pressure,
the volume of the reacting gases and product gases bear a simple ration among one
another.

 Avogadro Number: From Avogadro's hypothesis, we know equal volume of all


gases contain equal number of molecules at normal temperature and pressure. The
number is known as Avogadro Number and is equal to 6.06 x 1023.

 The ideal gas equation of state: If the variables P. V. T and n (the number of
moles) have known values, then a gas is said to be in a definite state, meaning that all
other physical properties of the gas are also defined. The relation between these state
variables is known as an equation of state.

An ideal gas is an imaginary gas that follows the gas laws and has 0 volume at 0 K i.e., the
ideal gas does not exist.

ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
 Organic chemistry is defined as the study of hydrocarbons and their derivatives. Most
atoms are only capable of forming small molecules. However one or two can form larger
molecules.
 Urea was the first organic compound prepared in laboratory. It was prepared by Wohler
(1828) from inorganic compound i.e. ammonium cyanate.
 Acetic acid was the first organic compound synthesized from the elements by Kolbe.

 Functional group is responsible for the chemical properties of the molecules ex. OH is
alcoholic group.

 Isomers Compounds having the same molecular formula but different structures, e.g.
C₂H6O can have the structure, i.e. CH3OCH3 (dimethyl ether) and C2H5OH (ethanol).

Hydrocarbons
These are the compounds of only carbon and hydrogen.

 Saturated hydrocarbons: They contain only single bonds. These are also called
alkanes or paraffins and have general formula CnH2n+2 . Methane is the first member of this
group.

 Unsaturated hydrocarbons: They have general formula CnH2n for alkene and CnH2n-2
for alkynes. These have at least one double (=) or triple (Ξ) bond and are called alkenes
and alkynes respectively.

 Aromatic hydrocarbons: They have ring structure with alternate double bonds and
(4n+2)πe- (Huckel's rule). e.g. benzene.

Important Hydrocarbons and their Uses

 Its hexachloro derivative C2CI6 is used as an artificial camphor.

4. Butane (C4H10): It is the main constituent of LPG (liquefied petroleum gas).

5. Ethylene (CH2 = CH2):

 In World war | (1914-18), it was used for the manufacturing of mustard gas
(poisonous gas).
 It is used as an anesthetic for the preservation and artificial ripening of green fruits.

6. Benzene (C6H6)

6. Methyl isocyanate (CH3NCO): Leakage of this gas is responsible for Bhopal
gas tragedy.

Coal
 It is believed that is was formed by (carbonization).
 Different varieties of coal are anthracite (90% carbon), bituminous (70% carbon), lignite
(40% carbon) and peat (10-15% carbon).
 On heating at 1270-1675 K in the absence of air, coal decomposes and gives the following
products.
 Coke is the solid residue left after the distillation.
 Coal tar It is a mixture of about 700 substances.
 Now-a-days bitumen, a petroleum product, is used in place of coal tar for metalling the
roads.
 The most significant characteristics of Indian coal are its high ash content, entrained
gasifires and low sulphur content.
 The process of separation of various constituents/ fractions of petroleum is known as
refining.
 Knocking - In a petrol engine, vapours of petrol and air are first compressed to a small
volume and then ignited by a spark. If the quality of petrol is not good, it leads to the pre-
ignition of fuel in the cylinder. This gives rise to a metallic sound known as knocking.
Tetraethyl lead (TEL) and Benzene - Toluene - Xylene (BTX) are common antiknock
compounds.
 Octane number - The antiknocking property of petrol is measured in terms of octane
number. Higher the octane number, better is the quality of fuel. Gasoline used in
automobiles has an octane number 80 or higher while in aeroplane, it has an octane
number 100 or over higher.
