BRANCHES OF CHEMISTRY
1.)Analytical Chemistry
- uses qualitative and quantitative observation to identify and measure the physical and chemical properties
of substances
2.)Physical Chemistry
- combines chemistry with physics
3.)Organic Chemistry
- specifically studies compounds that contains elements carbon. " chemistry of life"
4.)Inoganic Chemistry
- studies materials such as metals and gases that do not have carbon.
5.)Biochemistry
- the study of chemical process that occur within living organisms.
IMPORTANCE OF CHEMISTRY
1.)Food Production
- chemistry defines the food we consume as carbohydrates, proteins, fats.
1
2.)Clothing
- due to the knowledge of chemistry, clothing made of polyesters
3.)Home Material
- by the used of chemical technology humans started to make cement, tiles, concrete and paints
4.)Automobile
-we use like cars, airplanes use some chemical knowledge in technologies. The fuels, engine oils and
acid in batteries.
5.)Health
- it plays a vital role in health care. It knowledge is employed in disease, diagnosis and medicine.
6.)Electronic Technology
- technology gadgets
8.)Agriculture
- pesticides
- insecticides
- fertilizers
9.)Industry
- soap, beauty products

THE PARTICULATE NATURE OF MATTER
-primal element was air. 4.)Atoms comes from different shape and size
440 BCE
-Leucippus and Democritus

STATE OF MATTER
Mass
-amount of matter
Volume
-space it occupies
1.)Solid
-It has definite shape and definite volume
2.)Liquid
-it has no definite shape but has definite volume
3.)Gases
-have no definite shape and no definite volume
4.)Plasma
-has no definite shape and no definite volume

ROPERTIES OF MATTER (CHARACTERISTICS)
PHYSICAL CHEMICAL
- A property of matter that can be observe or - A property of matter that can be observe
measured without changing the composition with an accompanying changes in the chemical
or identity of substance substance
CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER
MATTER

HOMOGENOUS HETEROGENOUS ELEMENT COMPOUND
Mixture
Heterogenous Mixture
- variable combination of two or more pure
substance -large particles
- can be seperated into their components through -see the mixtures in different parts
simple physical means
Colloids
Hetero = different
-small particles that can be seen
Homo = same
Suspension
- large particles that can be seen
Homogenous Mixture
- very small particles
Example:
air (nitrogen and oxygen)
6
MAGNETISM -attracted
CRYSTALLIZATION -
DISTILLATION -
DECANTATION-
ACCURACY
-Indicates how close a measurement is to the true or accepted value
PRECISION
-how close two or more measurement are to each other, regardless of whether those measurements are
accurate or not
SCIENTIFIC NOTATION
-is a simple way to write and keep track of very large or very small numbers without having to deal with
7
EXPRESSING MEASUREMENT IN SCIENTIFIC NOTATION:
-For numbers larger than 10, the decimal point must be moved to left and the exponent that will be used in
the notation is a positive number
EXAMPLE:
1.)=6022
=6.022X10³
example:
2.) 1.4 x 10³ + 2.30 x 10² = 1.4 x 10² + 23.0 x 10² = 24.4 x 10² = 2.44 x 10³
-IN MULTIPLICATION
the numerical parts are simply multiplied, and the exponent are added
exanple:
-IN DIVISION
the numerical parts are simply divided, and the exponent are subtracted
example:
8
SIGNIFICANT FIGURES
1.)COUNTED ITEMS
- are expressed as exact whole numbers
2.)DEFINE RELATIONS
- are exact numbers but are not always whole numbers
3.)MEASURED NUMBERS
- are obtained from reading measuring devices; these numbers are never exact
example:
2.)Left most zeros before the first nonzero digut are not significant, they only act as place holders to show the
position of the decimal point
example:
9
3.)Zeros in between nonzero digits are significant
example:
4.)Zeros to the right of a nonzero digit and to the right of the decimal point are significant
example:
example:
14.7 g
+ 2.028 g
______________
= 16.728 g
= 16.7g
example:
10
MASS
-the amount of matter TEMPERATURE
WEIGHT -the measure of hotness or coldness of matter. It
indicates the energy of the particles of a substance.
-the pull of gravity of an object depends on the
-the measure of the average heat or thermal energy
objects location
of the particles.
VOLUME HEAT
-amount of space that occupy
- total energy that results from the molecular motion
FORMULA: V = LWH inside an object
FARENHEIT
-a temperature scale that bases the boiling point of
water at 212°
°F to °C = °C = °F - 32 / 1.8
°C to °F = °F = (°C x 1.8) + 32
°C to °K = °K = °C t 273.15
