No hint. Haha |
|
Application of chemistry in health & medicine |
1. Prevention & treatment of diseases 2. Drug discovery 3. Prolonging of life span |
PDP |
|
Matter |
Anything that occupies space and has mass |
|
|
What are the categories of matter based on composition and properties? |
1. Substance -Mixture: Homogeneous/ Heterogeneous 2. Element -Compound 3. Atoms and molecules |
|
|
Substance |
Form of matter that has DEFINITE (constant) composition |
|
|
Mixture |
Combination of two or more substances w/c retain their identity Do not have constant composition |
|
|
Homogeneous |
Composition of mixture is SAME throughout 1 phase |
|
|
Heterogeneous |
Composition is NOT UNIFORM 2 or > phases |
|
|
Element |
Cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical means |
|
|
Compounds |
Composed of atoms of TWO OR MORE ELEMENTS United in fixed proportions |
|
|
Law of definite proportion |
Different samples of the same compound always contain its constituent element in the same proportion by MASS |
|
|
Law of multiple proportion |
two elements combine to form in different rations of small whole numbers to form different compounds |
|
|
What are the states of matter? |
Solid Liquid Gas |
|
|
Solid |
Molecules are held together in an orderly fashion Definitel shape & volume |
|
|
Liquid |
Molecules are close together but are not held so rigidly Assumes shape of container |
|
|
Gas |
Molecules are separated by distances Indefinite shape |
|

|
What are the properties of matter ? |
Extensive Property Intensive Property |
|
|
Extensive Property |
Depends on the AMOUNT of matter Ex. Mass , volume |
|
|
Intensive property |
INdependent of the amount of matter Ex. Density, BP, MP |
|
|
Who are the two persons behind atomic theory? |
Democritus John Dalton |
|
|
What is the theory of Democritus? |
All matter consist of very small, indivisible particles. Concept of atomos |
