Hey, let me know what I should have added to make them better :)

Theme 1: Matter and Measurement


Matter:

Anything that occupies space and has mass.

Kinetic Theory of Matter: All matter consists of extremely small particles in constant motion.

Can be solid, liquid or gas.



3 Types of matter:

• Macroscopic - seen with eyes.
• Sub-microscopic/nanoscale - seen with microscope.
• Particulate – imagination



Physical properties
Colour, State of matter, Melting and boiling point, Density, Solubility, Electric conductivity, Malleability, Ductility, Viscosity

• Intensive: do not depend on the amount of substance
• Extensive: do depend on amount of substance

When physical change takes place, composition stays the same.



Chemical properties
Flammability, Toxicity, Oxidizing tendency, Stability.

When chemical change takes place, composition does change.

Signs of reaction:

• Colour change
• Formation of bubbles (gas)
• Odour



Heterogenous Homogenous

Non-uniform composition Uniform composition



Separation methods:

• Density = decanting, centrifugation
• Boiling point = distillation
• Intermolecular forces = chromatography
• Magnetism = magnets
• Solubility = filtration

,Observation types:

• Qualitative = words and description
• Quantitative = measurement with units and numbers



SI Units:

Mass = kilogram, kg

Length = meter, m

Time = second, s

Temperature = kelvin, K

Amount of substance = mole, mol

Electric current = ampere, A

Luminous intensity = candela, cd



Prefixes

Peta- P 1015

Tera- T 1012

Giga- F 109

Mega- M 106

Kilo- k 103

Deci- d 10-1

Centi- c 10-2

Milli- m 10-3

Micro- µ 10-6

Nano- n 10-9

Pico- p 10-12

,Femto- f 10-15

The Angstrom (Å) = 10-10



Errors and Uncertainty:

Accuracy = The agreement of a single measurement with the ’true’ value of the quantity

Precision = the agreement of consecutive measurements with one another

Determinate errors = errors such as:

• Faulty instrumentation
• Sensitivity f instrumentation
• Poor record-keeping
• Assumptions in experimental design
• Judgement errors while reading instruments.

Indeterminate errors = errors that cannot be predetermined such as:

• Environmental factors
• Variations in consecutive measurements under apparently identical conditions



Significant figures:

Burette: 4 sig figs

Measuring cylinder: 3 sig figs

Beaker: 2 sig figs



Significant figure rules:

Addition and subtraction: the answer with the smallest amount of decimal places

Multiplication and Division: final answer with smallest amount of sig figs



Measurements

Area of a Sheet = L X W

Area of a cylinder = π x r2

Volume of cube = L x W x h

Volume of cylinder = π x r2 x h



Volume conversions:

1cm3 = 1ml

1000cm3 = 1dm3 = 1000ml = 1L

1000dm3 = 1m3 = 1000L

, Density:

Intensive property
𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠
D= = g/cm3 = g/ml = kg/L

Temperature:

T(K) = …...°C + 273.15

T(°C) = ……K – 273.15

Absolute zero = lowest temperature = 0K = -273.15°C

T(°C) = (…...°F -32)/1.8

T(°F) = 1.8(…...°C) +32
