define and apply the law of conservation of mass

Mass is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. So, the mass of any element will be the same in the start and end of any chemical reaction.

Lightning produces both

ozone and nitrogen oxides.

Steps involved in ozone production:

1. Nitrogen dioxide is exposed to sunlight 2. Nitrogen monoxide and an oxygen atom are produced. 3. An oxygen atom reacts with an oxygen molecule. 4. Ozone is produced.

define a chemical reaction; express a chemical reaction in words as a balanced chemical equation

A chemical equation is a representation of a chemical reaction using chemical formulas. They are often combined in the formulas of compounds. Reactants are written on the left and products are written on the right (same as a multiplication equation).

The troposphere is the region closest to the surface of Earth, where humans live, and contains 75% of our air.

An inversion layer in the troposphere occurs when cooler air is trapped below warm air.

Which of the following species are the two products of respiration?

Carbon dioxide and water.

define volatility:

Describes how easily a substance will vaporize. Volatile organic compounds (VOC's are carbon-containing compounds that easily vaporize. Volatile organic compounds (VOC's) are carbon-containing compounds that easily pass into the vapor phase.

classify and describe metals, nonmetals, and metalloids: Metals most of them are solids are at room temp. Except for mercury. Hard/shiny. Nonmetals: opposite of metals (obvi)

Metals most of them are solids are at room temp. Except for mercury. Hard/shiny. Nonmetals: opposite of metals (obvi)

O3, OH, and VOC (ozone, hydroxide, and volatile organic compounds)

Placement of reactants and products

Reactants are always on the left and products are always on the right.

Molecules:

a molecule is an independent structure consisting of two or more atoms bonded together. Also, a molecule may contain two or more atoms of the same element. Molecules are formed by connecting two or more nonmetal atoms and they either be described as compounds or elements. (the seven two-atom (diatomic) molecules are: H, N, O, F, Cl, Br, and I

CO is measured in order to

assess the efficiency of an automobile in most states in the U.S.

Electrons

have a negative relative charge of one. Their relative mass is 0amu meaning that it is much smaller than the relative mass of a proton or neutron (9.11x10^-31).

Neutrons

have a neutral charge of zero and their relative weight is 1amu (which is the same as a proton.)

Nanotechnology

the manipulation of matter with at least one dimension sized between 1-100 nanometers.

summarize the role of sunlight in the production of ozone

Ozone is in a produced two-step process. In the first step, ultraviolet sunlight breaks apart an oxygen molecule to form two separate oxygen atoms. In the second step, these atoms then undergo a binding collision with other oxygen molecules to form two ozone molecules.

The risks presented by air pollutants are a function of toxicity and exposure.

Toxicity: an intrinsic health hazard of a substance Exposure: the amount of the substance encountered. Exposure is measured by concentration in the air, length of time, and rate of breathing.

Compound

pure substance that is made up of two or more different types of atoms in a fixed, characteristic combination. Compounds are made up of two or more elements, chemically.

Combustion:

the chemical process of burning, the rapid reaction of fuel with oxygen to release energy in the form of heat and light.

Cookstoves are

the greatest source of indoor air pollution in developing countries.

Information gained from a balanced equation can include:

the physical states of reactants and products, identities of the substances involved, and relative quantities of substances involved.

Octet Rule

Guideline that states main group atoms will form structures in which eight valence electrons interact with each nucleus, counting bonding electrons as interacting with both atoms connected by the bond

identify primary pollutants from industry, residential, and transportation:

Implicated in the Ozone formation, ground-level formation. The sunlight is absorbed as energy by nitrogen dioxide, and then bonds in NO2 are broken. and NO (Nitrogen monoxide) and atomic oxygen are formed. Atomic oxygen then reacts with oxygen molecules to form ground level ozone, the pollutant.

evaluate the health consequences of indoor and outdoor pollutants

Irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat. Headaches, dizziness, and fatigue. Respiratory diseases, heart disease, and cancer.

identify primary pollutants from industry, residential, and transportation:

No2 is emitted by vehicles, it concentrates in larger cities. Also, burning is a source of No2. No2 is formed/ catalyzed from heat. (Nitrogen & Oxygen) N2 + O2 = 2 NO and 2 NO + O2 = 2 NO2 (Nitrogen Dioxide)

Mono

One

define oxidation and reduction:

Oxidation is a chemical reaction caused by GAINING oxygen that is essential for absorbing oxygen and receiving energy from the food we eat (lowers number of electrons in oxygen). Reduction is the opposite is a chemical reaction caused by the reduction of oxygen (increases number of electrons).

The burning of coal produces sulfur dioxide, SO2, a pollutant that slowly reacts in air to form SO3. Sulfur trioxide dissolves into airborne water droplets to form a very corrosive solution of sulfuric acid. Which is a product of burning coal that hastens the transformation of sulfur dioxide into sulfur troxide?

Particles of ash. This transformation takes place on solid particles.

create and interpret particulate diagrams for atoms and molecules:

Protons have a positive relative charge of one. Their relative mass is 1amu and are located inside the nucleus. Their actual mass is 1.67x10^-27 (same as a neutron.)

differentiate between pure substances and mixtures

Pure substances can be made of one kind of material with consistent properties. Pure substances can be further broken down into the elements or compounds. Mixtures are made of two or more pure substances, each having different properties. Mixtures are physically combined structures that can be separated into their original components. Compounds have different properties that are different than the elements that make them up.

List the most toxic pollutants to the least out of these:

SO2, NO2, CO

Hepta

Seven

Amounts of chemicals can be changed (numbers in the front of the formula) never the subscripts, this would change the chemical compound into a new substance.

So, balance the formulas with coefficients first after you have the skeleton equation down.

Which of the following options correctly describe how to name a compound containing two nonmetals?

The name of the first element remains unchanged, except for the addition of a prefix where appropriate. The second element is named with its root and the suffix -ide. A Greek numerical prefix is always used when more than one atom is present to indicate the number of atoms of each element in the compound.

Statements that correctly describe a properly balanced chemical equation:

The physical states of the reactants may be different than the physical states of the products. The total number of atoms of each element must match in the reactants and products.
