Separation Techniques
1. Handpicking - This method involves simply picking out all the unwanted
substances by hand and separating them from useful ones. For example – if
you separate black grapes from green ones from a mixture of the two.
2. Threshing - This method is mostly done during the harvesting of crops.
Normally, the stalks of the wheat are dried once it is harvested. The grain is
then separated from the stalks and grounded into the floor by beating the
dry stalks to shake off the dried grains.
3. Winnowing - When the grains are collected from the process of threshing, it
needs to be cleared out of husks and chaffs before it is turned into flour.

works because the liquids in the mixture have different boiling points. When
the mixture is heated, one liquid evaporates before the other. One way to
check the purity of the separated liquids is to measure their boiling points.
For example, pure ethanol boils at 78°C and pure water boils at 100°C.

comparing a quantity with a standard unit. The modern International System of This system is based on the foot-pound-second units,
Units (SI) bases all types of physical measurements on seven base units: for units of length, mass, and time.
1. the kilogram (kg), for mass
2. the second (s), for time
3. the Kelvin (K), for temperature
4. the ampere (A), for electric current
5. the mole (mol), for the amount of a substance
6. the candela (cd), for luminous intensity
7. the meter (m), for distance

Measurement can be obtained by the following methods: the length of a


piece of string can be measured by comparing the string against a meter stick,
the volume of a drop of water may be measured using a graduated cylinder, the
mass of a sample may be measured using a scale or balance, and the
temperature of a fire may be measured using a thermocouple.

A. LARGER UNITS TO SMALLER UNITS 100 cm 1000m
To convert from a larger unit to a smaller one, multiply.
EXAMPLES: • Cancel the same units, then perform the necessary operation(s)

1. Convert 3.2 meters to cm C. METRIC TO ENGLISH (US or IMPERIAL)


1 meter = 100 cm EXAMPLES:
3.2m = (3.2 x 100) = 320 cm 1. Convert 115cm to inches
2. Convert 7.8 km to mm 1 inch = 2.54 cm
1 km = 1,000 m and 1m = 100 cm 115 cm x 1 / 2.54cm = 45.28 inches
1 km = (7.8 x 1000) = 7800 m 2. Convert 115km to mile
1 m = (7800 x 100) = 780,000 cm or 7.8 x 10^5 cm 1 mile = 1.6 km or 1.60934km
115 km x 1mile / 1.6km = 71.88 mi
B. SMALLER UNITS TO LARGER UNITS 115 km x 1mile / 1.60934km = 71.46 mi
To convert from a smaller unit to a larger one, divide.
EXAMPLES: D. ENGLISH TO METRIC
1. Convert 320cm to meter EXAMPLES:
Since in every 1m there are 100cm, so the ratio will be 1/100 1. Convert 100 yard to meter
320 cm x 1m / 100cm – cancel the same units 1 yd = 3ft, 1ft = 12in, 1in = 2.54cm, 1m = 100cm
(320 x 1) /100 – get the product of 320 and 1 then divide by 100 100 yd x 3ft / 1yd = 300 ft
3.2 – put the remaining unit which is m 300ft x 12in / 1ft = 3600 in
= 3.2 m 3600 in x 2.54 cm / 1in = 9144 cm
2. Convert 780,000 cm to km 9144 cm x 1m / 100 cm = 91.44 m
Since in every 1km there are 1,000 meters and in every 1 meter there are 100 centimeters, so the OR
ratios will be 1/1000 and 1/100
3ft 12in 2.54cm 1m = 91.44 m
780,000cm x 1m/100 cm - cancel the same units, then perform the necessary operation(s) 100yd
780,000 x 1 / 100 = 7,800 m 1yd 1ft 1in 100cm
7,800 m x 1km/1,000 m – cancel the same units, then perform the necessary operation(s) • Cancel the same units, then perform the necessary operation(s)
7,800 x 1 / 1,000 = 7.8 km
2. Convert 20ft to meter
OR 1foot = 12in = 30.5cm (30.48cm) = 0.305m (or 0.3048cm)
780,000 cm x 1m/100 cm x 1km / 1000m – cancel the same units 20ft x 30.48 cm / 1ft x 1meter / 100 cm = 6.1 m OR
780,000 x 1 / 100 x 1/1000 – follow the MDAS rule (solve from left to right)
30.48 cm 1m

INCLUSIVE DATE: notation.
Rules on Determining the Number of Significant Figures
1. All non-zero digits are significant
KEY QUESTIONS: EXAMPLES: 123 (3 SFs), 6.123 (4 SFs)
• How does energy become responsible for the changing of one
matter state into another? 2. Zeroes between non-zero digits are significant
• Why is unit conversion important? EXAMPLES: 106 (3 SFs), 140.01 (5 SFs)
3. All zeroes which come after non-zeroes and after the decimal place are
significant OR the trailing zeroes after / at the right side of the decimal point
are significant.
EXAMPLES: 3.00 (3 SFs), 1.0110 (5 SFs)
4. For number less than 1, all zeroes which come after the decimal point but
are before non-zeroes are not significant OR the leading zeroes (place
holders) are not significant
EXAMPLES: 0.003 (1 SF), 0.070 (2 SFs)
5. Trailing zeroes in a whole number with no decimal point shown are not
significant. (NOTE: When zeroes come before the decimal point and are after non-zeroes, it
is impossible to tell how many significant figures are present. Therefore, the number of SFs is
unknown)
EXAMPLES: 540 (2 SFs or unknown), 1000 (1 SF or unknown)
6. Trailing zeroes in a whole number with a decimal point shown are significant.
(NOTE: It is improper to report numbers in this fashion. Some ascribe to the system that a
decimal point implies all zeroes following the non-zeroes are significant)
EXAMPLES: 540. (3 SFs), 1000. (4 SFs)

DALTON’S ATOMIC THEORY (1808)


1. Each chemical element is composed of extremely small particles that are
indivisible and cannot be seen by the naked eye, called atoms.
2. All atoms of an element are alike in mass and other properties, but the
atoms of one element differ from all other elements. For example, gold and
silver have different atomic masses and different properties.
3. For each compound, different elements combine in a simple numerical ratio.
4. In a chemical reaction, atoms are neither created nor destroyed. They simply
combine, separate, or rearrange.

space, with electrons orbiting a fixed, positively charged nucleus in set,
predictable paths. In other words, this model states that there were positive
particles within the nucleus, but failed to define what these particles are.
Rutherford discovered these particles in 1919, when he conducted an
experiment that scattered alpha particles against nitrogen atoms. When the
alpha particles and nitrogen atoms collided, protons were released.

3. BOHR’S ATOMIC MODEL (1913)
4. SOMMERFELD’S MODEL (1916)
In 1913 Bohr proposed his quantized shell model of the atom to explain how
electrons can have stable orbits around the nucleus. Bohr modified the
Rutherford model by requiring that the electrons move in orbits of fixed size and
energy. The energy of an electron depends on the size of the orbit and is lower
for smaller orbits. Radiation can occur only when the electron jumps from one
orbit to another. The atom will be completely stable in the state with the
smallest orbit, since there is no orbit of lower energy into which the electron can
jump.

Atoms have different properties based on the arrangement and number


of their basic particles. Before we delve into how the 118 elements in the
Periodic Table were formed, let’s familiarize first the following radioactive
particles involved in nuclear reactions: a) fusion – two nuclei combine and b)
fission – a nucleus split into two smaller nuclei. These two reactions or processes
involving the emission of energetic particles of an atom is called radioactivity.
Below are the examples of radioactive particles present in nuclear reactions:

MOST COMMON TYPES OF NUCLEAR REACTIONS

RULES OF ORBITAL DIAGRAM

1. Pauli Exclusion Principle


• states that, in an atom or molecule, no
two electrons can have the same four
electronic quantum numbers. The atom
has 2 bound electrons and they occupy
the outermost shell with opposite spins.

2. Aufbau Principle
• The Aufbau principle states that
electrons fill lower-energy atomic
orbitals before filling higher-energy ones
(Aufbau is German for "building-up").

3. Hund’s Rule

• Every orbital in a
subshell is singly
occupied with one
electron before any one
orbital is doubly
occupied, and all
electrons in singly
occupied orbitals have
the same spin.

LEWIS DOT STRUCTURE
2. ORBITAL DIAGRAM
Orbital diagrams are pictorial descriptions of the electrons in an atom. A Lewis Structure is a very simplified representation of the valence shell
CALCIUM: electrons in a molecule. It is used to show how the electrons are arranged around
individual atoms in a molecule. Electrons are shown as "dots" or for bonding
electrons as a line between the two atoms. The goal is to obtain the "best" electron
configuration, i.e., the octet rule and formal charges need to be satisfied.

3. NOBLE GAS NOTATION


A noble gas configuration of an atom consists of the elemental symbol of the
last noble gas prior to that atom, followed by the configuration of the
remaining electrons.
CALCIUM: [AR] 4s^2

EXCEPTIONS
