Chemical Reaction
|
the transformation of a substance or substances into one or more new substances
|
|
Law of Conservation of mass
|
mass is neither destroyed nor created during ordinary chemical reactions or physical changes
|
|
Law of Definite Proportions
|
a chemical compound contains the same elements in exactly the same proportions by mass regardless of the size of the sample or source of the compound is known
|
|
Law of Multiple Proportions
|
If two or more different compounds are composed of the same two elements, then the ratio of the masses of the second element combined with a certain mass of the first element is always a ratio of small whole numbers
ex. Carbon dioxide vs. monoxide - two oxygen to one |
|
Dalton's Atomic Theory (5 Points)
|
- All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms
- Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties Atoms of different elements differ in size, mass, and other properties -Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed - Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios to form chemical compounds - In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated or rearranged |
|
Modern Atomic Theory
|
- all matter is composed of atoms
- atoms of any one element differ in properties form atoms of another element if remained unchanged atoms are divisible into smaller particles |
