Chemistry + Deals with the study of the structure of matter and changes it undergoes. + From French “alkemie”. + From Arabic “al-kimia”, which means “the art of transformation” 5 Traditional branches of ChemistryProperties of Matter + Intensive Property - independent of the amount -e.g. specific gravity, density, temperature, pressure Extensive Property - dependent of the amount - e.g. weight, volume, size Properties of Matter Chemical Change - results in the formation of new substances. - e.g. iron (rust), wood (decay), fireworks. Physical Change - does not result in the formation of new substances. - e.g. Phase change from ice to liquid water and to steam (water vapor)where Z, A = number Atoms ~ atomic number number of protons mass number Isotopes number of protons + number of electrons of neutrons —atoms having same atomic number but different Isotope 1D 2 RH iva 2Na* iS Bs mass number P 1 1 1 1 aT 16 16 10 16 is
