*Protons and Neutrons are heavy particles and have
approximately same mass- 1 amu.
Ions- gained or lost electrons of an atom. 3 types of radiation (alpha (α), beta (β), gamma (γ), and neutron
(n))
Note: the electrical charge of a particle is a measure of its ability to
attract or repel other charged particles.
PLANETARY AND ORBITAL MODEL
Planetary model- portrays the atomic structure as a miniature solar
system in which the protons and neutrons are clustered at the
center of the atom in the atomic nucleus.
Orbital Model- depicts the general location of electron outside the
nucleus as a haze of negative charge referred to as the electron
cloud.
ATOMIC NUMBER, MASS NUMBER, AND ISOTOPES
Atomic Number- The number of protons in the nucleus of each
atom of an element. It also indirectly tells the electron that an atom
contains. Penetration of radiation
Atomic Mass Number- the total masses of all the constituents of an
atom (proton, and neutron).

Isotopes- the structural variation of each elements, has the same
number of protons and electrons but vary in number of neutrons
they contain.
ELEMENTS, COMPOUNDS, MOLECULES, and MIXTURES
Element- a pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler
substance by physical nor chemical methods. Consist of one type of
atom.
Molecules- when a two or more atom of the same element are
combined chemically.
Atomic Weight- most elements occur in nature as mixtures of 𝐻 (𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚) + 𝐻 (𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚) → 𝐻2 (𝑚𝑜𝑙𝑒𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑒)
isotopes. We can calculate the average atomic mass of a specific
element called as the atomic weight of an element, through utilizing Compound- is a pure substance of two or more elements chemically
the masses of its isotopes and their relative abundances. combined.
Ex. Atomic weight of Carbon 4𝐻 + 𝐶 = 𝐶𝐻4 (𝑚𝑒𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑒)
Abundance of the Isotope Atomic Mass Unit 𝑁𝑎 + 𝐶𝑙 = 𝑁𝑎𝐶𝑙 (𝑠𝑜𝑑𝑖𝑢𝑚 𝑐𝑙𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑑𝑒)
12C= 98.89% 12.0000 amu Mixture- two or more substance that are not chemically combined
13C= 1.110% 13.0034 amu or bonded.
Heterogeneous Mixture- does not blend throughout; both
substances remains distinct.

*Suspensions- mixture that if left undisturbed the
containing particles settle out.
Homogeneous Mixture- substances are fully blended; individual
substances are not distinct.
*Solutions- contains atoms, ions, or molecules that are
fully dissolved.
*Colloids- a mixture containing mid-size particles that do
not settle out.
Tyndall Effect- dispersed colloid particles scatter light, allowing us to
differentiate between colloids & solutions.
Tyndall Effect
Chemical change- substance transformed into chemically different
substance.
PROPERTIES OF MATTER
Physical properties- can be observed without changing the identity
and composition of the substance.
*includes color, odor, density, melting point, boiling
point, and hardness.
Chemical properties- describe the way a substance may change, or
react, to form other substances.
*common chemical property, flammability, toxicity, UNITS OF MEASUREMENT
acidity, reactivity (many types), and heat of combustion. Metric system are the units used in scientific measurements.
Intensive properties- properties of substance that do not depend on SI Units- In 1960 an international agreement was reached specifying
the amount of sample being examined and are particularly useful in a particular choice of metric units for use in scientific
chemistry because many intensive properties can be used to identify measurements. (Système International d’Unités).
substances.
*boiling point, freezing point, flammable, density,
combustible, melting point, condensation point,
hardness, color, and corrosive.
Extensive properties- properties of substance that depend on the
amount of matter present.
*volume, mass, length, and weight.
PHYSICAL and CHEMICAL CHANGES
Physical change- substances changes their physical features or
appearances but not its chemical composition.
* all changes of state are example of physical changes.
