Atoms, Molecules and Stoichiometry
Relative Atomic Mass : The weighted average mass of an element compared with carbon-12
atomwhere mass of each carbon-12 atom is exactly 12 units.
Relative Isotopic Mass : The mass of an atom of an isotope compared with carbon-12 atom
where mass of each carbon-12 atomis exactly 12 units
Relative Molecular Mass : The mass of molecule of a particular substance compared with
carbon-12 atom where mass of each carbon-12 atom is exactly 12 units.
Emperical Formula: The simplest integer ratio of the elements presentiin ache mical compound,
‘Mokcular Formula: The"exact number of atoms of elements pre sentin.a chemical compund.
Chemical Bonding :
lonizationE nergy : The enthalpy change when one mole of electron is removed from ane mole
‘of gaseous atom to praduce ane mole of mon opastive cation under standard conditions.
Electronegativity : The tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract the bonded pair of electrons
towards itself.
Bond Length : The average distance between nuclei of two bonded atoms in a molecule.
Bond Energy : The amount of energy required to break one mole of a covalent bond.
Bond Polarity : The conce pt used to describe the sharing of electrons between atoms ina
molecule
Chemical Energetics :
Hess's Law : The reaction may proceed in one step or muttiple steps, the total enthaply change
always remains the same.
Exothermic Reaction : A reaction is exothermic if the enthalpy of the reactant is greater than the
‘enthalpy of product and bond forming occurs.
Endotheimic Reaction :/A réaction is endotiermicif the enthalpyof productis greaterthan the
‘enthalpy of reactant and bond breaking occurs
Standard Enthalpy Change Of Reaction : The enthalpy change when substances react to form
products under standard conditions as represented by balanced chemical equations.
Standard Enthalpy Change Of Atomization : The enthalpy change required to produce one
mole of gaseous atom fromit's element in i's standard state under standard conditions
Standard Enthalpy Change Of Formation : The enthalpy change when one mole of compound
is formed from it's elements under standard conditions.Standard Enthalpy Change Of Combustion : The enthalpy change when one mole of
substance reacts with excess of oxygen when ignited under standard condition s.
‘Standard Enthalpy Change Of Solution : The enthalpy when one male of a compound
dissolves in large amounts of water to form an infinitely dilute solution under standard conditions
Enthalpy Change Of Hydration : The enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous ions dissolve
in large amounts of water to give an infinitely dilute solution.
Enthalpy Change Of Neutralization : The enthalpy change when acid and base react to form
‘one mole of water.
Chemical Equiibria :
LeChatlier’s Principle: If a systemin equilibrium isattered by changing temperature, pressure
or concentration, the equilibrium will favor the side that minimizes the effect.
ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
Cracking : Breaking down of large chain hydrocarbons into short chain hydrocarbons.
Fractional Distillation : Seperating hydrocatbon fractions on bases of their boiling points.
Chiral Carbon : Carbon atom with four different groups attached to it.
Free Radical : High energy specie with unpaired electron.
Nucleophile: Specie that donates lone pair.
Electrophile : Specie that accepts lone pair.
‘Structural Isomers : Compounds with same molecular formula but different structural formula.
Stereoisomers : Compounds with same structural formula but different spacial arrangement.
Geometrical Isomerism : !somerism obtained by rotating molecule across the C=C carbon
double bond.
Homolytic Fission: The fission in which the bond equally splits and free radicals are formed.
Heterolytic Fission : The fission in which bond does not split equally and ions are formed.Organic Chemistry Mechanisms
