MATTER IN OUR SURROUNDINGS
INTRODUCTION There are a large number of things around us which we see and feel. For example, we can see a book in front of us. A book occupies some space. The space occupied by the book is called it volume. If we pick up the book, we can also feel its weight. So, we conclude that the book has some mass. We cannot see the air around us, yet if we fill a balloon with air and then weight it carefully, we will find that not only does air occupy space (bounded by the balloon), but is also has mass.
Things like a book and air are examples of matter. Other examples of matter are wood, cloth, paper, ice, steel, water, oil etc. Further, that matter offers resistance is borne out by the fact that we cannot displace an object from one place to another without applying some force. We have to apply force to pick up a stone from the ground. Thus, matter can be defined as follows -
Anything that occupies space, has mass and offer resistance is called matter.
SUBSTANCE : A substance is a kind of matter that cannot be separated into other kinds of matter by any physical process. For example, sugar dissolved in water can be separated from water by simply evaporating the water. Here sugar is a substance which cannot be broken into its components by any physical process.
PHYSICAL NATURE OF MATTER
(a) Matter is Made up of Particles :
(i) Everything around us is made up of many tiny pieces or particles.
(ii) Particles which make up the matter are constantly moving.
(iii) Particles which make up mater are atoms or molecules.
(i) Evidences for the presence of particles is matter : Most of the evidences for the existence of particles in matter and their motion come from the experiments of diffusion and Brownian motion.
(A) Dissolving a solid in a liquid : Potassium permanganate is a purple coloured solid substance and water is a liquid. We will take 2 - 3 crystals of potassium permanganate and dissolve them in $100 ml$ of water. Now we will take out $10 ml$ of this solution and put into another $90 ml$ of clear water. We will keep diluting the solution like this 5 to 8 times.
(B) Conclusion : This experiments shows that just a few crystals of potassium permanganate can colour a large volume of water. It means a crystal of $KMnO_4$ is made up of millions of tiny particles. They keep dividing themselves into smaller and smaller particles. Particles of $KMnO_4$ and particles of water spread into each other, it means they are moving. This movement of different particles among each other, so that they become mixed uniformly, is called diffusion.
(ii) Movement of pollen grains in water : The best evidence for the existence and movement of particles in liquids was given by Robert Brown in 1827. Robert Brown suspended extremely small pollen grains in water. On looking through the microscope, it was found that the pollen grains were moving rapidly throughout water in a very irregular way (or zig - zag way).
(A) Brownian motion : Zig - zag motion (in a very irregular way) of particles is known as Brownian motion. Brownian motion can also be observed in gases. Sometimes, when a beam of light enters a room, we can see tiny dust particles suspended in air which are moving rapidly in a very random way. This is an example of Brownian motion in gases. The tiny dust particles move here and there because they are constantly hit by the fast moving particles of air.
- Matter is made up of tiny particles.
- Particles of matter are constantly moving.
Brownian motion increases on increasing the temperature.
(b) Characteristics of Particles of Matter :
The important characteristics of particles of matter are the following:
(i) The particles of matter are very, very small : It can be explained by performing the following experiment. We will dissolve 2 or 3 drops of indigo dye in $100 ml$ of water. We will get a deep blue coloured solution. Now we will keep diluting the solution and we will observe that intensity of blue colour of indigo dye solution goes on decreasing.
(ii) The particles of matter have spaces between them :
(A) Experiment : We take about $100 ml$ of a water in a beaker and mark the level of water. We will also take $50 g$ of sugar. Now we will dissolve the sugar by stirring and we get 3 sugar solution.
(B) Conclusion : The level of sugar solution in the beaker is at the same mark where water level was initially in the beaker.
It shows that particles sugar go into the spaces between various molecule of water due to which there is no change in the volume. Thus, from this experiment it can be concluded that, the molecules in water are not tightly packed, they have spaces between them.
(iii) The particles of matter are constantly moving : This property can be explained by diffusion.
(A) Diffusion : “Intermixing of particles of two different types of matter on their own is called diffusion.” It is the phenomenon in which the movement of molecules or particles occur from their higher concentration towards their lower concentration.
e.g. : When a perfume bottle is opened in one corner of a room, its fragrance spreads in the whole room quickly. This happens because the particles of perfume move rapidly in all directions and mix with the moving particles of air in the room.
The particles of matter possess kinetic energy and so are constantly moving. As temperature rises, particles move faster.
(iv) Particles of matter attract each other : There are some forces of attraction between the particles of matter which bind them together.
(A) Cohesive Force : The force of attraction between the particles of different substances is called adhesive force.
e.g. : If we take a piece o chalk, a cube of ice and an iron nail and beat them with a hammer, chalk will easily break into smaller pieces, but more force will be required to break a cube of ice and iron nail will not break.
Reason : The reason for this is that force of attraction is quite weak in between the chalk particles, but force of attraction in between the particles of ice cube is a bit stronger, while force of attraction in between the particles of iron is very-very strong.
RIGID AND FLUID
(i) Rigid : Rigid means ‘unbending’ or inflexible. A solid is a rigid form of matter so that it maintains its shape when subjected to outside force.
(ii) Fluids : Fluids are the substances which have tendency to flow. A liquid is a fluid form of mater which occupies the space of the container. Liquids have a well defined surface.
A gas is a fluid form of matter which fills the whole container in which it is kept.
Liquid and gases are known as fluids.
CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER
On the basis of physical states, all matter can be classified into three groups :-
(a) Solids
(b) Liquids
(c) Gases
(a) Solids :

- Liquids are slightly more compressible than that of solids.
- Density of liquids is lesser than that of solids.
- The force of attraction between the molecules of liquids is less than that of solids.
- Liquids expands far more than solids on heating.
- The particles of two different liquids can diffuse is one another easily.
(c) Gases :
A gas is a state of matter, which has definite mass, but no definite shape and no definite volume.
e.g. : $O_2, N_2, H_2$ etc.
(i) Properties :
- A gas contained in a vessel has a definite mass.
- Gases do not have definite shape and volume.

INTERCONVERSION OF STATES OF MATTER
The phenomenon of change of mater form one state to another state and back to original state, by altering the conditions of temperature and pressure, is called interconversion of matter.
The various states of matter can be interchanged into one another by altering the conditions of -
(a) Temperature
(b) Pressure.
(a) Altering the Temperature of Matter :
(i) Interconversion of solid into liquid and vice versa : The solids can be converted into liquids by heating them. Similarly liquids can be cooled to form solids.
e.g. : Ice at $0^{\circ} C$ changes into water at $0^{\circ} C$, when heat energy is supplied to it. The water at $0^{\circ} C$ changes into ice at $0^{\circ} C$ on freezing.
(A) Melting or Fusion : The process due to which a solid changes into liquid state by absorbing heat energy is called melting or fusion.
(B) Freezing or Solidification : The process due to which a liquid changes into solid state by giving out heat energy is called freezing or solidification.
(C) Melting Point : The constant temperature at which a solid changes into liquid state by absorbing heat energy is called it melting point.
(D) Freezing Point : The constant temperature at which a liquid changes into solid state by giving out heat energy is called freezing point.
The numerical value of freezing point and melting point is same. Melting point of ice $=$ Freezing point of water $=0^{\circ} c(273.16 k)$.
Explanation : On increasing the temperature of solids, the kinetic energy (K.E.) of particles increases. Due to increases in K.E., the particles start vibrating with greater speed. The energy supplied by heart overcomes the force of attraction between the particles. Then, the particles leave their fixed positions and start moving freely and thus solid melts.
Latent Heat of Fusion : The amount of heat energy that is required to change $1 kg$ of solid into liquid at atmospheric pressure and its melting point is known as the latent heat of fusion. (In Greek Latent means Hidden)
Latent heat of fusion of ice $=3.34 \times 10^{5} J / kg$.
Particles of water at $0^{\circ} C(273 K)$ have more energy as compared to particles in ice at the same temperature.
(ii) Interconversion of liquid into gaseous state and vice versa : Liquids can be converted into gases by heating them. Similarly, gases can be converted into liquids by cooling them.
e.g. : Water at normal pressure changes into gas (steam) at $100^{\circ} C$ by absorbing heat. Steam at $100^{\circ} C$ changes into water by giving out energy.
(A) Boiling or Vaporisation : The process due to which a liquid changes into gaseous state by absorbing heat energy is called boiling.
(B) Condensation or Liquefaction: The process due to which a gas changes into liquid state by giving out heat energy is called condensation.
(C) Boiling point : The constant temperature at which a liquid rapidly changes into gaseous state by absorbing heat energy at atmospheric pressure is called boiling point.
(D) Condensation Point : The constant temperature at which a gas changes into liquid state by giving out heat energy at atmospheric pressure is called condensation point.
The numerical value of condensation point and boiling point is same. Condensation point of vapour (water) $=$ Boiling point of water $=100^{\circ} C(373 K)$.
Explanation : When heat is supplied to water, particles start moving faster. At a certain temperature, a point is reached when the particles have enough energy to break the forces of attraction between the particles. At this temperature the liquid starts changing into gas.
Latent heat of vaporisation : The amount of heat which is required to convert $1 kg$ of the liquid (at its boiling point) to vapour or gas without any change in temperature. Latent heat of vaporisation of water $=$ $22.5 \times 10^{5} J / kg$.
Particles in steam, that is water vapour at $373 K$ have more energy than water at the same temperature. Because steam have absorbed extra energy in the form of latent heat of vaporisation.
(iii) Direct interconversion of solid into gaseous state and vice versa : The changing of solid directly into vapours on heating and of vapours directly into solid on cooling is known as sublimation.
- The solid which undergoes sublimation is called ‘sublime’.
- The solid obtained by cooling the vapours of a solid is called ‘sublimate’.
e.g. : Ammonium Chloride $(NH_4 Cl)$, iodine, camphor, naphthalene (moth balls) and anthracene.

MATTER IN OUR SURROUNDINGS
CL - 3
BY ALTERING PRESSURE
The difference in various states of matter is due to the different intermolecular spaces between their particles. So when a gas is compressed the intermolecular space between its particles decreases and ultimately it will be converted into liquid.
Pressure and temperature determine the state of a substance. So, high pressure and low temperature can liquefy gases.
e.g. : Carbon dioxide $(CO_2)$ is a gas under normal conditions of temperature and pressure. It can be liquefied by compression it to a pressure 70 times more than atmospheric pressure.
Solid $CO_2$ is known as ‘Dry ice’. Solid $CO_2$ is extremely cold and used to ‘deep freeze’ food and to keep ice - cream cold.
Unit of pressure :
Atmosphere (atm) is a unit of measuring pressure exerted by a gas.
The unit of pressure is Pascal ( $Pa$.)
$1 atm=1.01 \times 10.5 Pa$.
When pressure is lowered the boiling point of liquid is lowered. This helps in rapid change of liquid into gas.
EVAPORATION
The phenomenon of change of a liquid into vapours at any temperature below its boiling point is called evaporation.
Water changes into vapours below $100^{\circ} C$. The particles of matter are always moving and are never at rest. At a given temperature in any gas, liquid or solid, there are particles with different K.E.
In case of liquids, a small fraction of particles at the surface, having higher K.E., is able to break the forces of attraction of other particles and gets converted into vapour.
The atmospheric pressure at sea level is $1 atm$.
(a) Factors affecting Evaporation :
(i) Temperature : With the increase in temperature the rate of evaporation increases.
$ \text { Rate of evaporation } \alpha T $
Reason : On increasing temperature more number of particles get enough K.E. to go into the vapour sate.
(ii) Surface Area : Rate of evaporation $\alpha$ Surface area
Since evaporation is a surface phenomena, if the surface area is increased, the rate of evaporation increases. So, while putting clothes for drying up we spread them out.
(iii) Humidity of Air : Rate of evaporation $\alpha \frac{1}{\text { Humidity }}$
Humidity is the amount of water vapour present in air. When humidity of air is low, the rate of evaporation is high and water evaporates more readily. When humidity of air is high, the rate of evaporation is low and water evaporates very slowly.
(iv) Wind Speed : Rate of evaporation $\alpha$ Wind speed
With the increase in wind speed, the particles of water vapour move away with the wind. So the amount of water vapour decrease in the surroundings.
(v) Nature of substance : Substances with high boiling points will evaporate slowly, while substance with low boiling points will evaporate quickly.
Difference between evaporation and boiling
S.No. | Evaporation | Boiling |
---|---|---|
$\mathbf{1}$ | It is a surface phenomenon. | It is a bulk phenomenon. |
$\mathbf{2}$ | It occurs at all temperatures below B.P. | It occurs at B.P. only. |
$\mathbf{3}$ | It leaves the cooling effect. | It increases the temperature. |
(b) Cooling Causes by Evaporation :
The cooling caused by evaporation is based on the fact that when a liquid evaporates, it draws (or takes) the latent heat of vaporisation from ‘anything’ which it touches.
For example :
- If we put a little of spirit (ether or petrol) on the palm of our hand then our hand feels very cold.
- Perspiration (or sweating) is our body’s method of maintaining a constant temperature.
(c) We Wear Cotton Clothes in Summer :
During summer, we perspire more because of the mechanism of our body which keeps us cool. During evaporation, the particles at the surface of liquid gain energy from the surroundings or body surface. The heat energy equal to latent heat of vaporisation is absorbed from the body leaving the body cool. Cotton, being a good absorber of water helps in absorbing the sweat.
(d) Water droplets on the outer surface of a glass containing ice cold water :
If we take some ice cold water in a tumbler then we will observe water droplets on the outer surface of tumbler.
Reason : The water vapour present in air on coming in contact with cold glass of water, loses energy. So water vapour gets converted to liquid state, which we see as water droplets.
PLASMA
This state consist of super energetic and super excited particles. These particles are in the form of ionised gases.
For e.g : neon sign bulb and fluorescent tube
Neon sign bulb - Neon gas
Fluorescent tube - Helium gas
When electrical energy flows through gas, it gets ionised and hence plasma is created. Plasma glows with a special colour depending on nature of gas. Sun and the stars glow because of the pressure of plasma.
BOSE - EINSTIEN CONSENSATE (B.E.C.)
The B.E.C. is formed by cooling a gas of extremely low density, about one-hundred - thousandth the density of normal air, to super low temperature.

IS MATTER AROUND US PURE
PURE SUBSTANCE
A homogeneous material which contains particles of only one kind and has a definite set of properties is called a pure substance.
Example : Iron, silver, oxygen, sulphur, Carbon dioxide etc., are pure substances because each of them has only one kind of particles.
(a) Characteristics of A Pure Substance :
(i) A pure substance is homogeneous in nature.
(ii) A pure substance has a definite set of properties. These properties are different from the properties of other substances.
(iii) The composition of a pure substance cannot be altered by any physical means.
(b) Elements :
A pure substance, which cannot be subdivided into two or more simpler substances by any chemical means is called an element.
(i) Example : Hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, copper, zinc, tin, lead, mercury, etc. are all elements as they cannot be subdivided into simpler parts by any chemical means. A substance made up of the atoms with same atomic number is called an element.
(ii) Classification of elements :
(A) On the basis of physical states, all elements can be classified into three groups :- (1) Solids (2) Liquids (3) Gases
It has been found that :
- Two element exist as liquids at room temperature. They are mercury and bromine.
- Eleven elements exist as gases at room temperature. They are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine, helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon.
- Remaining 102 elements are solids at room temperature.
(B) Elements can be classified as metals and non - metals. There are 22 non - metals and 93 metals.
- amongst the metals, only mercury is liquid metal. All other metals are solids.
- Amongst the 22 non - metals : 10 non - metals are solids. They are boron, carbon, silicon, phosphorus, sulphur, selenium, arsenic, tellurium, iodine and astatine. 1 non-metal, bromine, is a liquid. Find nonmetals, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and chlorine are chemically active gases. Six non-metals, helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon are chemically inactive gases. These are also called noble gases or rare gases.
MATALLOIDS :
There are a few elements which show some properties of metals and other properties of non - metals. For example they look like metals but they are brittle like non - metals. They are neither conductors of electricity like metals nor insulators like non-metals, they are semiconductor. The elements which show some properties of metals and some other properties of non-metals are called metalloids. Their properties are intermediate between the properties of metals and non-metals. Metalloids are also sometimes called semimetals. The important examples of metalloids are : Boron (B), Silicon (SI) and Germanium (Ge).
Hydrogen is the lightest element.
(C) Elements can be classified as normal elements and radioactive elements. The elements which do not give out harmful radiations are called normal elements. Elements from atomic number 1 to atomic number 82 are normal elements. The elements which given out harmful radiation are called radioactive elements. Elements from atomic number 83 to atomic number 112 and 114,116 and 118 are radioactive in nature.
(c) Compounds :
A pure substance, which is composed of two or more elements, combined chemically in a definite ratio, such that it can be broken into elements only by chemical means is called compound.
The two or more elements present in a compound are called constituents or components of the compound. For example, water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen, combined together in the ratio of $1: 8$ by weight. The water can be broken into its constituents only by electro-chemical method, i.e., by passing electric current through it.
The compounds can be further classified as acids, bases and salts. Sulphuric acid, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, formic acid, etc. are the compounds which can be classified as acids.
Sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, zinc hydroxide and calcium hydroxide can be classified as bases. Ammonium chloride, zinc sulphate, lead nitrate and calcium carbonate can be classified as salts. It must be pointed out that salts are formed by the chemical reaction between acids and bases.
MIXTURES
Most of the materials around us are not pure substances, but contain more than one substances, elements or compounds. Such materials are called mixtures.
(a) Definition :
When two or more substances (elements, compounds or both) are mixed together in any proportion, such that they do not undergo any chemical change, but retain their individual characteristics, the resulting product is called a mixture.
(b) Types of Mixture :
(i) Homogeneous Mixture : A mixture in which different constituents are mixed uniformly is called a homogeneous mixture.
Examples : All solutions, such as solutions of common salt, copper sulpahte, sugar etc. are examples of homogeneous mixtures. Similarly, alloys such as brass, bronze etc. are homogeneous solid solutions of metals.
(ii) Heterogeneous Mixture : A mixture in which different constituents are not mixed uniformly is called a heterogeneous mixture.
Example : A mixture of sand and salt, iron powder and sulphur powder, soil etc. are examples of heterogeneous mixtures.
Mixtures | Compounds |
---|---|
1. Nature In a mixture, two or more elements or compounds are mixed, such that they do not combine chemically. 2. Structure Mixture does not have a definite structure. 3. Composition In case of mixture, their constituents can be present in any ratio, i.e., they have variable composition. 4. Properties The constituents of a mixture retain their individual physical and chemical properties. 5. Separation of constituents The constituents of a mixture can be separated by physical means. 6. Energy changes During the formation of mixtures, no energy changes take place, i.e., it is a result of physical change. |
1. Nature In a compound, two or more elements unit chemically. 2. Structure Compounds have a definite structure. 3. Compositions In case of a compound the constituents are present in a fixed ratio by weight. 4. Properties The properties of a compound are entirely different from the properties of its constituents. 5. Separation of constituents The constituents of a compound can not be separated by physical means. 6. Energy changes During the formation of a compound energy is either absorbed or released, i.e., compound is the result of a chemical change. |
REASONS FOR REGARDING AIR AS A MIXTURE
(i) Composition of air is not same at all places. The percentage of oxygen decreases in the air at higher altitudes. Similarly, the air in industrial areas has more amount of carbon dioxide gas and other polluting gases as compared to air in the countryside.
(ii) The main constituents of air can be separated by physical methods, such as liquefaction and fractional distillation.
(iii) No chemical action takes place when the constituents of air, i.e., oxygen, nitrogen, water vapour and carbon dioxide are mixed. Thus, no heat or light energy is evolved or absorbed, when its constituents are mixed.
(iv) Each of the constituent of air retains its physical and chemical properties. For example, oxygen helps in combustion, carbon dioxide lowly turns limewater milky, etc.
REASONS FOR REGARDING WATER AS A COMPOUND.
(i) The composition of pure water is same throughout. It always contains one part of hydrogen and eight parts of oxygen by weight.
(ii) The constituents of water cannot be separated by physical means. However, by electrochemical means water can be decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen. (iii) Chemical reaction takes place with the liberation of heat and light energy when one part of hydrogen combines with the eight parts of oxygen by weight.
(iv) The properties of water are entirely different from the properties of its constituents. For example, hydrogen is a combustible gas, oxygen in supporter of combustion, but their compound water extinguishes fire.
REASONS FOR REGRDING ALLOYS AS MIXTURES
Though the alloys are homogeneous mixture of metals which cannot be separated by any physical means, yet they are regarded mixtures on account of the following reasons :
(i) The composition of constituent metals can be varied in an alloy. For example, brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. If an alloy has $60 %$ of copper and rest of zinc or $58 %$ of copper and rest of zinc, in either case it is brass.
(ii) The individual metals in any alloy retain their chemical and physical properties. For example, if brass is treated with dilute sulphuric acid, then zinc in it reacts to form zinc sulphate and hydrogen, but copper does not react
SOLUTIONS
A homogeneous mixtures of two or more substance is called a solution. Usually we think of a solution as a liquid that contains either a solid or a liquid or a gas dissolved in it. However, this is not true. We can also have a solid have a solid solution as in the case of alloys.
(a) Components of a Solution :
The substances present in a homogeneous solution are called components of the solution. A solution basically has two components, i.e., a solvent and a solute.
(i) Solvent : The component of a solution which is present in large proportion, is called solvent.
Usually, a solvent is the LARGER component of the solution.
For example : In the solution of copper sulphate in water, water is the solvent. Similarly, in paints, turpentine oil is the solvent.
(ii) Solute : The component of the solution which is present is small proportion is called solute.
For example : In the solution of common salt in water, the common salt is solute. Similarly, in carbonated drinks (soda water), carbon dioxide gas in the solute.
Usually, solute is the SMALLER component of the solution.
(b) Examples of Solutions :
(i) Solid - Solid solutions : All alloys are solid solutions of metals. Brass is a solid solution of approximately $30 %$ of zinc and $70 %$ of copper. In this solid solution, copper (larger component) is solvent and zinc (smaller component) is solute. Similarly, Bell Metal is a solid solution of $80 %$ of copper and $20 %$ of tin, in which copper is the solvent and tin is the solute.
(ii) Solid - Liquid solutions : Sugar solution is an example, in which sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. Similarly, common salt solution is an example, in which common salt is the solute and water is the solvent. In case of tincture of iodine, iodine is the solute and ethyl alcohol is the solvent.
(iii) Liquid - Liquid solutions : In case of an alcoholic drink, ethyl alcohol is solute and water is solvent. Similarly, in case of vinegar, acetic acid is solute and water is solvent.
(iv) Liquid - Gas solutions : In case of aerated drinks (soda water), carbon dioxide is the solute and water is the solvent.
(v) Gas - Gas solutions : Air is a homogeneous mixtures of two main gases, i.e., $78 %$ of nitrogen and $21 %$ of oxygen. In this mixture, nitrogen is solvent and oxygen is solute. Similarly, the petrol fed into the engines of automobiles is a mixture of petrol vapour and air.
(c) Types of Solution :
(i) Saturated solution : A solution, which at a given temperature dissolves as much solute as it is capable of dissolving, is said to be a saturated solution.
(ii) Unsaturated solution : When the amount of solute contained in a solution is less than the saturation level, the solution is said to be an unsaturated solution.
(iii) Super saturated solution : A solution, which contains more of the solute than required to make a saturated solution, is called a super saturated solution.
TRUE SOLUTION
A solution in which particles of the solute are broken down to such a fine state, that they cannot be seen under a powerful microscope is called a true solution.
(a) Characteristics of a True Solution :
(i) A true solution is always clear and transparent, i.e., light can easily pass through it without scattering.
(ii) The particles of a solute break down to almost molecular size and their diameter is of the order of $\mathbf{1} \mathbf{~ n m}$ $(10^{-9} m)$ or less.
(iii) A true solution can completely pass through a filter paper as particle size of solute is far smaller than the size of pores of filter paper.
(iv) A true solution is homogeneous in nature.
(v) In a true solution, the particles of solute do not settle down, provided temperature is constant.
(vi) From a true solution, the solute can easily be recovered by evaporation or crystallisation.
(b) Concentration of a Solution :
It is defined as the amount of solute present in a given quantity of the solution. The most common method for expressing the concentration of a solution is called percentage method. The concentration of solution refers to the percentage of solute present in solution. Furthermore, the percentage of solute can be expressed in terms of :
(i) mass of the solute
(ii) volume of the solute.
(i) Concentration of a solution in terms of mass percentage of solute : If a solution is formed by dissolving a solid solute in a liquid solvent then the concentration of solution is expressed in terms of mass percentage of solute and is defined as under :
The concentration of solution is the mass of the solute is grams, which is present in $100 g$ of a solution.
It is very important to keep in mind that the percentage concentration of a solution refers to mass of solute in $100 g$ of solution and not $100 g$ of solvent, i.e., water.
The concentration of a solution in terms of mass percentage of solute is calculated by the formula given below :
Concentration of solution $=\frac{\text { Mass of solute }(\text { in grams })}{\text { Mass of solution }(\text { in grams })} \times 100$
$ =\frac{\text { Mass of solute (in grams) }}{[\text { Mass of solute }+ \text { Mass of solvent }] \text { (in grms) }} \times 100 $
(ii) Concentration of a solution in terms of volume percentage of solute : If a solution is formed by dissolving a liquid solute in a liquid solvent, then the concentration of the solution is expressed in terms of volume percentage of solute. The concentration of a solution is the volume of the solute in milliners, which is present in 100 milliliters of a solution.
It is very important to keep in mind that the percentage concentration of solution refers to
volume of solute in $\mathbf{1 0 0} ml$ of solution and not $\mathbf{1 0 0} ml$ of solvent, i.e., water.The concentration of a solution in terms of volume percentage of the solute is calculated by the formula given below :
Concentration of solution $=\frac{\text { Volume of solute (in } ml)}{\text { Volume of solution (in } ml)} \times 100$
$ =\frac{\text { Volume of solute (in } ml)}{[\text { Volume of solute }+ \text { Volume of solvent }](\text { in } ml)} \times 100 $
The concentration of a solution is a pure percentage number and has NO UNITS.
(c) Examples :
~~ 1. What is the meaning of $15 %$ solution of $NaCl$ ?
Sol. $15 %$ solution of $NaCl$ is a solution $100 g$ of which contains $15 g$ of $NaCl$ and $85 g$ of water.
~~ 2. Calculate the amount of glucose required to prepare $250 g$ of $5 %$ solution of glucose by mass.
Sol. $%$ of solute $=\frac{\text { Mass of solute }}{\text { Mass of solution }} \times 100$
$ 5=\frac{\text { Mass of solute }}{250} \times 100 $
Mass of solute $=\frac{5 \times 250}{100}=\frac{125}{10}=12.5 g$
~~ 3. A solution contains $50 mL$ of alcohol mixed with $150 mL$ of water. Calculate concentration of this solution.
Sol. This solution contains a liquid solute (alcohol) mixed with a liquid solvent (water), so we have to calculate the concentration of this solution in terms of volume percentage of solute (alcohol). Now, we know that :
Concentration of solution $=\frac{\text { Volume of solute }}{\text { Volume of solution }} \times 100$
Here, Volume of solute (alcohol) $=50 mL$
And. Volume of solvent (water) $=150 mL$
So, Volume of solution $=$ Volume of solute + Volume of solvent
$ =50+150=200 mL $
Now, putting these values of ‘volume of solute’ and ‘volume of solution’ in the above formula we get :
Concentration of solution $=\frac{50}{200} \times 100=\frac{50}{2}=25$ percent (by volume)
Thus, the concentration of this alcohol solution is 25 per cent or that it is a $25 %$.
~~ 4. How much water should be added to $16 ml$ acetone to make its concentration $48 %$ ?
Sol. Concentration of solution $=\frac{\text { Vol. of solute }}{\text { Vol. of solution }} \times 100$
$\frac{16}{x} \times 100=48$
$x=\frac{16}{48} \times 100=33.33 ml$
Volume of solvent $=33.33-16=17.33 ml$.

SUSPENSIONS
A heterogeneous mixture of insoluble particles of solute, spread throughout a solvent, is called a suspension. The particle size (diameter) in a suspension is more than $10^{-5} cm$. The particles has a tendency to settle down at the bottom of the vessel and can be filtered out, because their size is bigger than the size of the pores of the filter paper.
(a) Example :
(i) Muddy water, in which particles of sand and clay are suspended in water.
(ii) Slaked lime suspensions used for white - washing has particles of slaked lime suspended in water.
(iii) Paints in which the particles of dyes are suspended in turpentine oil.
(b) Characteristics of Suspensions :
(i) The size of particles is more than $10^{-5} cm$ in diameter.
(ii) The particles of suspension can be separated from solvent by the process of filtration.
(iii) The particles of suspensions settle down, when the suspension is kept undisturbed.
(iv) A suspension is heterogeneous in nature.
(v) More scattering takes place in suspensions, because of bigger size of particles.
The process of settling of suspended particles under the action of gravity is called sedimentation.
COLLODIAL SOLUTION
A heterogeneous solution in which the particle size is in between $10-cm$ to $10^{-5} cm$, such that the solute particles neither dissolve nor settle down in a solvent is called colloidal solution.
In a colloidal solution, relatively large suspended particles are called dispersed phase and the solvent in which the colloidal particles are suspended in called continuous phase or dispersing medium.
(a) Examples of Colloidal Solutions :
Few examples of colloidal solutions are as follows :
- blood
- Jelly
- Tooth paste
- Mist and fog.
(b) Characteristics of Colloidal Solutions :
(i) The size of colloidal particles is in between $10^{-7} cm$ and $10^{-5} cm$.
(ii) The particles of a colloidal solution are visible under a powerful microscope.
(iii) The particles of a colloidal solution do not settle down with the passage of time.
(iv) The particles of a colloidal solution can easily pass through filter paper.
(v) The particles of a colloidal solution scatter light, i.e., when strong beam of light is passed through the colloidal solution, the path of beam becomes visible.
(vi) Colloidal solutions are not transparent, but translucent in nature.
(vii) The particles of a colloidal solution are electrically charged.
(viii) The colloidal solutions are heterogeneous in nature.
TYNDALL EFFECT : The phenomenon in which light is scattered by colloidal particles and path of light becomes visible as a Tyndall cone is called Tyndall effect.
Experiment :
Take a wooden box, which is fitted with a convex lens on one side and a microscope on the other side, such that convex lens and the objective lens of microscope face each other as shown in the figure.
Place a beaker containing soap solution inside the wooden box. Place a powerful bulb on the side of the convex lens and move it backward or forward till a narrow parallel beam of light is formed. Looking through the microscope. We will observe individual colloidal particles, surrounded by a cone of bluish light. The bluish cone of light is called Tyndall cone.

SEPRATION OF HETEROGENEOUS MIXTURES
Heterogeneous mixtures can be separated into their respective components by simple physical methods such as handpicking, sieving, filtration.
Generally following physical properties are considered in the separation of the constituents of a mixture.
(i) Density of the constituents of the mixture.
(ii) Melting points and boiling points of the constituents of the mixture.
(iii) Property of volatility of one or more constituents of the mixture.
(iv) Solubility of the constituents of the mixture in different solvents.
(v) Ability of the constituents of the mixture of sublime.
(vi) Ability of the constituents of the mixture to diffuse.
However, for separating homogenous mixtures special techniques are employed depending upon the difference in our or more physical properties of the constituents of the mixture.
TECHNIQUES USED FOR SEPARATING THE COMPONENTS OF A MIXTURE
(a) By Evaporation :
(i) Separation of coloured components (due) from blue black ink : The process of evaporation is suitable for the separation of non-volatile soluble solid (dye) from its liquid solvent (water).
(ii) Method :
- Heat sand in an iron vessel by placing it over a tripod stand. This arrangement is called sand bath.
- Place a china dish on the sand bath. Pour about $5 cc$ of the ink into the china dish.
- Heat gently evaporates water from the ink such that it does not boil. In a few minutes the water evaporates leaving behind dry blue black ink. Method of evaporation is suitable for the following solid-liquid mixtures.
Solid liquid Mixture | Non-volatile Solid | Liquid |
---|---|---|
Common salt and water | Common salt | Water |
Sodium nitrate and water | Sodium nitrate | Water |
Copper sulphate and water | Copper sulphate | Water |
(b) By Centrifugation :
The method of separating finely suspended particles in a liquid, by whirling the liquid at a very high speed is called centrifugation.
(i) Separation of cream from milk : The process of centrifuging in employed in separating cream from milk. This process is generally employed in separating colloidal solutions which easily pass through the filter paper.
(ii) Principle of centrifugation : It is based on the principle that when a very fine suspension or a colloidal solution is whirled rapidly, then the heavier particles are forced towards the bottom of liquid and the lighter stay at the top.
(ii) Method :
- Pour full cream milk in the test tube with a pivot in your laboratory centrifuge.
- Shut the lid of the centrifuge and switch on the current. When the centrifuge starts working, the tub containing milk swings out in the horizontal position and whirls around its axis at a high speed.
- The centrifuge pull (the outward pull) pushes the heavier particles outward, i.e., towards the bottom of the mixture. Thus, the heavier particles of the proteins, carbohydrates, etc. are pushed towards the bottom of the tube, but the lighter particles of the fat stay near the top of the tube and hence separate.
(iv) Applications of centrifugation :
- It is employed in milk dairies to separate cream from the milk.
- It is employed in diagnostic laboratories in testing urine samples.
- It is employed in blood banks to separate different constituents of blood.
- It is used in drying machines to squeeze out water from the wet clothes.
(c) By Separating Funnel :
(i) Separation of mixture of two immiscible liquids : The separation of two immiscible liquid is based on the difference in their densities. The apparatus used for separation is separating funnel. It is a long glass tube provided with a tap at is bottom. The tale bellow shows different immiscible liquids which can be separated by separating funnel.
Immiscible Liquid-liquid Mixture |
Heavier Liquid | Lighter Liquid |
---|---|---|
Benzene and water | Water | Benzene |
Kerosene oil and water | Water | Kerosene oil |
Turpentine oil and water | Water | Turpentine oil |
Chloroform and water | Chloroform | Water |
Mustard oil and water | Water | Mustard oil |
(ii) Method :
- Close the tap of separating funnel and clamp it in a vertical position in an iron stand.
- Pour the immiscible liquid mixture (say benzene-water mixture) in the separating funnel. Allow the mixture to stand for half an hour or more.
- The immiscible components of the mixture, i.e., benzene and water separate out into two distinct layers.
The benzene forms the lighter layer on the top and the water forms the heavier layer at the bottom.
- Place a conical flask or a beaker under the nozzle of the separating funnel. Turn the tap gently so that the water trickles in the flask or the beaker drop by drop. Once the water is drained out, close the tap.
- Now place another conical flask or a beaker under the nozzle of separating funnel. Open the to drain out benzene.
Separation by separating funnel
(iii) Applications :
- This method is used for separating any two immiscible liquids.
- This method is used in separation of stag (a waste material) form the molten metals during their extraction. For example, during the extraction of iron from its ore, the molten iron and slag collect at the base of blast furnace. The slag being less dense floats up the surface of molten iron. They are topped out from two different outlets.
(d) By Sublimation :
The changing of slid directly into vapours on heating and of vapours into directly solid on cooling is known as sublimation.
(i) Separation of a mixture of common salt and ammonium chloride : This method is used in the separation of such solid-solid mixtures where one of the components sublimes on heating. However, it is useful only if the components of the mixture do not react chemically on heating. The tale shows the list of mixtures which can be separated by the process of sublimation.
Solid-Solid Mixture | Sublimable Solid |
---|---|
Common salt and ammonium chloride |
Ammonium chloride |
Sand and iodine | lodine |
Common salt and iodine | lodine |
Sodium sulphate and benzoic acid |
Benzoic acid |
Iron fillings and naphthalene | Naphthalene |
(ii) Method :
- Place the mixture of common slat and ammonium chloride in a china dish and heat it over a low Bunsen flame.
- Place a clean glass funnel in an inverted position in the china dish and close the mouth of its stem with cotton wool.
- The ammonium chloride in the mixture sublimes to form dense white fumes. These fumes condense on the cooler sides of the funnel in the form of fine white powder.
- When the mixture gives off no more white fumes, lift the funnel, scrap the fine white powder from its sides on a piece of paper. This is pure ammonium chloride. The residue left behind in the funnel is sodium chloride.
Separation by sublimation
Dry ice (solid $CO_2$ ), naphthalene, Anthracene, lodine etc. are sublimable solids.
(e) By Chromatography :
The process of separation of different dissolved constituents of a mixture by absorbing them over an appropriate absorbent material is called chromatography.
The adsorbent medium is generally magnesium oxide, alumina or filter paper. The solvent generally used for dissolving a mixture of two or more constituents is water or alcohol. The different constituents of a mixture get absorbed differently on the same absorbent material, because they have different rates of movement. The rate of movement of each adsorbed material depends upon :
- The relative solubility of the constituents of mixture in a given solvent.
- The relative affinity of the constituents of mixture for the adsorbent medium. If a filter paper is used as an adsorbent material for the separation of various constituents of a mixture, then this method of separation of mixture is called paper chromatography. Paper chromatography is very useful in separating various constituents of coloured solutes present in a mixture of lime, ink, dyes etc.
Kroma means colour in Greek language and technique of chromatography was first applied for the separation of colours, so this name was given.
(i) Separation of coloured constituents present in a mixture of ink and water.
(ii) Method :
- Take a filter paper $22 cm$ long, $5 cm$ broad and stick its smaller end to a glass rod with the help of gum. On the other end, measure a distance of $2 cm$ from lower end and mark a small point. On this point pour one or two drop of the ink.
- Suspend this filter paper in a wide and tall cylinder as shown in Figure. Gradually, pour water into the cylinder till the lower end of filter paper slightly dips in the water. Cover the cylinder with a glass lid to prevent any evaporation and leave the apparatus undisturbed for an hour. The water rises up the filter paper and reaches the ink mark. This water then dissolves various constituents of the ink, gets absorbed by the filter paper in different amounts. More the constituent gets absorbed, the lesser it moves upward and vice versa.
- When the solvent (water) reaches near the top of filter paper, the filter paper is removed from water and dried. On the filter paper will be seen a band of colours, of various constituents.
- A filter paper with separated bands of various constituents of a coloured substance is called chromatogram.
(iii) Advantages :
- It can be carried out with a very small amount of material.
- The substances under investigation do not get wasted in chromatographic separation.
(iv) Applications :
- It is used to separate colours from dye.
- It is used in the separation of amino acids.
- It is used in the separation of sugar from urine.
- It is used in the separation of drugs from the samples of blood.
(f) By Distillation :
Distillation is the process of heating a liquid to form vapour and then cooling the vapour to get the back liquid.
Distillation can be represented as :
Liquid $\xlongequal[\text { ब्मवसपदह }]{\text { भ्वंजदह }}$ Vapour (or Gas)
(i) Liebig condenser : Liebig condenser is a water condenser. It is a long glass tube surrounded by a wider glass tube (called water jacket) having an inlet and outlet for water. During distillation, cold water form tape is circulated through the outer tube of condenser. This water takes away heat from the hot vapour passing through the inner tube of condenser and causes it condensation.
Process of simple distillation is used to recover both salt as well as water, from a salt - water mixture (or salt solution) and to separation of components of a mixture containing two miscible liquids that boil without decomposition and have sufficient difference in their boiling points.
(ii) Fractional distillation : Separation of mixture of two miscible liquids for which the difference in the boiling points in less : In case of two liquids which have very close boiling points, both the liquids tends to distil over in different proportions. It means lesser the boiling point of a liquid, more is the proportion of it distilling over.
The above problem can be avoided by using a fractionating column. it gives the effect of repeated distillation by offering resistance to the passage of vapour.
The process of separation of two miscible liquids by the process of distillation, making use of their difference in boiling points, is called fractional distillation.
(A) Method :
- The process of fractional distillation is similar to the process of distillation, except that a fractionating column is attached.
- The design of a fractionating column is such that the vapours of one liquid (with a higher boiling point) are preferentially condensed a s compared to the vapours of the other liquid (with lower boiling point).
- Thus, the vapours of the liquid with low boiling point, pass on to the Leibig’s condenser where they condense. The liquid so formed is collected in receiver.
- The thermometer shows a constant reading as long as the vapour of one liquid are passing to Liebig’s condenser. As soon $s$ the temperature starts rising, the receiver is replaced by another receiver to collect second liquid.
Miscible liquid-liquid mixture | Component which distils over |
---|---|
Ethyl alcohol (bop. $.78^{\circ} C) \quad+$ Water (bop. $.100^{\circ} C)$ | Ethyl alcohol |
Methyl alcohol (bop. $.64.5^{\circ} C)+$ Ethyl alcohol (bop. $.78^{\circ} C)$ | Methyl alcohol |

SEPARATION OF GASES FROM AIR
In order to separate the major components of air, it is first purified, then liquefied and finally fractionally distilled. The steps involved in the process are as follows -
(a) Purification of Air :
(i) Air generally contains carbon dioxide gas, hydrogen sulphide gas and sulphur dioxide gas as impurities. In addition to it there are dust particles also.
(ii) First of all air is washed by passing it through water, where the dust particles are removed.
(iii) The washed air is passed through dilute caustic soda solution, where the gases like carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and hydrogen sulphide are removed.
(iv) The purified air, however, contains moisture. The moist air is passed through pipes, maintained at a temperature below - $20^{\circ} C$, where vapour present in it freezes and hence, air becomes dry.
(v) The air leaving the cooling pipes is free from all impurities.
(b) Liquefaction of Air :
(i) The cool air, free from all impurities is compressed to a pressure 200 times more than the atmospheric pressure. The compression raises the temperature of the air.
(ii) The hot compressed air is then passed through cooling tank in which cold water enters from one end and warm water leaves from the other end.
(iii) The compressed and cooled air is passed through a spiral pipe, placed in a vacuum flask. The end of spiral pipe is provided with a fine jet.
(vi) When compressed air suddenly escapes from the jet, its pressure suddenly falls. Thus, its molecules move wide apart. When the molecules move wide apart, they need energy. This energy is taken by the molecules from themselves and hence their temperature drops.
(v) The air so cooled, is now at a pressure equal to that of atmosphere. This cooled air rises up and in the process further cools the incoming compressed air in spiral tube. The air is then sucked again by the compression pump and the cycle is repeated. With every cycle, the temperature of air drops, till it liquefies.
(c) Fractional Distillation of Air :
(i) The liquid air mainly of nitrogen and oxygen, and is at a temperature of $-200^{\circ} C$.
(ii) The boiling point of liquid nitrogen is $-195^{\circ} C$ and that of liquid oxygen is $-183^{\circ} C$.
(iii) The liquid is gradually warmed to $-195^{\circ} C$, when nitrogen starts boiling off from the liquid air. The nitrogen gas so formed, is compressed and filled is steel cylinders.
(iv) The liquefied oxygen left behind, is also changed to gas and then filled in compressed state in steel cylinders.
CITY WATER SUPPLY
River water is normally used to supply drinking water to big cities. This water is unfit for drinking purposes as it contains a large amount of suspended impurities and harmful micro-organisms, such as bacteria and germs. The river water is purified in the following stages -
(a) Sedimentation :
The water is allowed to stand in big tanks where heavier suspended impurities settle down. To increase the rate of sedimentation, alum is added to it (loading). The impurities settle down at the bottom.
(b) Filtration :
The semi - clear water is allowed to pass through beds of sand, charcoal and gravel to remove suspended impurities. After that water is passed through sand filter.
(c) Removal of harmful Micro-Organism or Sterilisation :
The harmful bacteria in filtered water can cause very serious diseases such as typhoid, cholera, jaundice, dysentery, etc.
Thus, to the filtered water bleaching powder or chlorine gas is added. This kills the micro-organisms and hence the water becomes fit for drinking. This water is directly pumped into overhead tanks for supply to a city.
PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL CHANGES
Some kind of change always takes place in the matter when it is subjected to every changes. Almost all the changes (except nuclear changes) taking place in the matter can be classified under two heading, these are as follows -
(a) Physical Changes :
Definition : A change which alters some specific physical property of the matter, like its state, texture, magnetic or electrical conditions or its colour, without causing any change in the composition of its molecules, is called physical change, provided it get reversed, if the cause producing the change is removed.
Following points need special consideration :
(i) Now new or different product is formed : The composition of molecules of the substance remains unaltered.
Example : ice melts to form water. In this example only the appearance (state) of matter has changed from solid to liquid. However, the composition of the molecules of ice or water remains same, i.e., for every $1 g$ of hydrogen there is $8 g$ of oxygen required. Thus, only a physical change has occurred.
(ii) The change is temporary and reversible : It means the change can be reversed by altering the causes which produce the change.
Example : The water formed from ice can be changed back to ice by placing it in a freezing mixture (a mixture of ice and common salt).
On altering the experimental conditions, the change which gets reversed, is a physical change.
(iii) There is no net gain or loss of energy : The amount of energy required to bring about a physical change is generally equal to the amount of energy required to reverse the change. Thus, there is not net energy change involved.
Example : If $1 g$ of water of $100^{\circ} C$ on changing into steam needs $2260 J$ of heat energy, then $1 g$ of steam at $100^{\circ} C$ on changing into water at $100^{\circ} C$, gives out $2260 J$ of $h$ eat energy. Thus, the net energy change is zero.
(iv) There is no change in the weight of substance : During a physical change it is only the energy which is added or removed. No matter is added during a physical change. Similarly, no matter is removed during a physical change. Therefore, mass of the substance remains same.
Some Examples Involving Physical Changes :
Physical Change | Observation | Change in Physical Property |
---|---|---|
1. Switching on an electric bulb |
The bulb glows and gives out heat and light energy. |
The physical appearance of the bulb changes. |
2. Rubbing a permanent magnet on a steel rod. |
The steel rod gets magnetized. If it is brought near iron nails, they get attracted. |
The steel rod acquired the property of attracting pieces of iron. |
3. Action of heat on iodine | The brownish grey crystals of iodine change to form violet vapours. On cooling the vapours condense on cooler parts on the test tube to form crystals. |
Change in state and colour. |
4. Dissolving of common salt in water |
The white crystalline salt disappears in water. However, the water tested exactly like common salt. Moreover, common salt can be recovered by evaporation. |
Change of state. |
Some Common Examples of Physical Changes :
- Formation of dew.
- Evaporation of water.
- Crystallisation of sugar from its solution.
- Ringing of an electric bell.
- Breaking of a glass pane.
- Making of ice cream.
- A rock rolling down a hill.
- Bending of a glass tube by heating.
- Melting of wax.
- Sublimation of camphor.
(b) Chemical Change :
Definition : A change which alters the specifies properties of a material by bringing about a change in its molecular composition, followed by a change in state, is called a chemical change.
Following points needs special consideration :
(i) A chemical change results in the formation of one or more new products : The products formed have different properties than the original substance. Thus, the composition of the molecules of products is different from the original substance.
Example : Heating of sugar
When sugar is gently heated in a test tube, it melts. It gradually changes to brown colour, giving a large amount of steamy fumes. In the end a black mass is left which consists of carbon. Thus, new substances, viz. carbon and water (steam)m are formed. In this change, the arrangement between the molecules of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen breaks. The hydrogen and oxygen atoms separate from carbon atoms and join together to form water. The carbon atoms are set free and are left as black residue.
Sugar $\xrightarrow{\text { heat }}$ carbon + Steam
(ii) The weight of the substance undergoing chemical change usually changes :
Example : During the heating of sugar, the weight of the black residue is far less than the actual weight of the sugar. However, this is an apparent change in weight. If we take the weight of steam into account and add to it the weight of carbon, then total weight will be equal to the weight of sugar crystals. Thus, strictly speaking, total weight of substances taking part in a chemical change remains constant.
(iii) The chemical change is permanent and irreversible : It means the change will not reverse by altering the experimental conditions.
Example : The sugar, which has decomposed on heating to form carbon and steam will not change to sugar on cooling.
(iv) During chemical change energy is either absorbed or given out : The various atoms in a chemical compound are joined by attractive forces commonly called bonds. The making or breaking of the bonds always requires exchange of energy. Thus, some amount of heat is either absorbed or given out during a chemical change.
Some Examples Involving Chemical Changes :
Chemical Change | Observation | Equation |
---|---|---|
1. Burning of magnesium in air | When a magnesium ribbon is heated in a flame of Bunsen burner, it catches fire and burns with a dazzling white flame to form white ash. |
Magnesium + Oxygen Magnesium oxide |
2. Rusting of iron | When iron (silver grey) is left exposed to moist air for a few days, reddish brown powdery mass (rust) is found on its surface |
Iron + Oxygen (from air) + Water vapour Rust |
3. Burning of LPG | When LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is bumt, it bums with a pale blue flame and liberates colourless gas carbon dioxide along with steam. |
Butane (LPG) + Oxygen Carbon dioxide + Water |
Some Common Examples of Chemical Changes :
- Burning of wood or charcoal
- Digestion of food
- Formation of biogas (Gobar gas)
- Smoking of cigarette
- Rusting of iron
- Clotting of blood
- Baking of cake
- Formation of wine
- Decomposition of water into hydrogen and oxygen.
- Formation of water from hydrogen and oxygen
(c) Difference Between Physical and Chemical Changes
Physical change | Chemical Change |
---|---|
1. The change takes place only in the state, texture, colour, electrical or magnetic properties of solubility, etc. However, molecular properties (composition) do not change. |
1. The change takes place in the state, texture, colour, electrical or magnetic properties along with the change in its molecular properties (i.e. its molecular arrangement changes). |
2. The specific properties of the substance remain unaltered after the physical change. |
2. The specific properties of the substance change completely after the chemical change. |
3. Now new substances are produced. | 3. Always new substances are produced. |
4. There is no change in weight, if a substance is undergoing a physical change. |
4. There is always a change in apparent weight, when a substance undergoes a chemical change. |
5. There is no net absorption or release of energy (such as heat or light energy) during a physical change. |
5. There is always a net absorption or release of energy during a chemical change. |
6. It is temporary change and is usually reversed by removing the cause of the change. |
6. It is a permanent change and cannot be reversed by removing the cause of the change. |

ATOMS AND MOLECULES
INTRODUCTION
It was proposed by Indian philosopher, maharishi Kanad, that if we go on dividing matter, we will get smaller and smaller particles of matter. Finally, we will get the smallest particle of matter, which cannot be divided further. John Dalton called these particles by the name atom, which means ‘indivisible’. It was further proposed that the particles of matter (atoms) normally exists in a combined form and various combination of particles give $u s$ various kind of matter. This combined form of atoms is called molecules.
All matter is made up of small particles called atoms and molecules. Different kind of atoms and molecules have different properties due to which different kind of matter also show different properties.
LAWS OF CHEMICAL COMBINATION
The laws of chemical combination are the experimental laws which led to the idea of atoms being the smallest unit of matter. The laws of chemical combination played a significant role in the development of Dalton’s atomic theory of matter.
There are two important laws of chemical combination. These are :
(i) Law of conservation of mass
(ii) Law of constant proportions
(a) Law of Conservation of Mass or Matter :
This law was given by Lavoisier in 1774. According to the law of conservation of mass, matter can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction.
The law of conservation of mass means that in a chemical reaction, the total mass of products in equal to the total mass of the reactants. There is not change in mass during a chemical reaction.
Suppose we carry out a chemical reaction between $A$ and $B$ and if the products formed are $C$ and $D$ then,
$ A+B \longrightarrow C+D $
Suppose ’ $a$ ’ $g$ of $A$ and ’ $b$ ’ $g$ ob $B$ react to produce ’ $c$ ’ $g$ of $C$ and ’ $d$ ’ $g$ of $D$. Then, according to the law of conservation of mass, we have,
$ a+b=c+d $
Example :
We calcium Carbonate $(CaCO_3)$ is heated, a chemical reaction takes place to form Calcium Oxide (CaO) and Carbon Dioxide $(CO_2)$. It has been found by experiments that if $\mathbf{1 0 0}$ grams of calcium carbonate is decomposed completely, then $\mathbf{5 6}$ grams of Calcium Oxide and $\mathbf{4 4}$ grams of Carbon dioxide are formed.
Since the total mass of products $(100 g)$ is equal to the total mass of the reactants $(100 g)$, there is no change in the mass during this chemical reaction. The mass remains same of conserved.
Maharishi kanad told that if we keep dividing matter on and on, we will get the smallest particles called as paramanu.
(b) Law of constant Proportion / Law of Definite Proportions :
Proust, in 1779, analysed the chemical composition (types of elements present and percentage of elements present) of a large number of compounds and came to the conclusion that the proportion of each element is a compound is constant (or fixed). According to the law of constant proportions : A chemical compound always consists of the same elements combined together in the same proportion by mass.
The chemical composition of a pure substance is not dependent on the source from which it is obtained.
Example :
Water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen. It can be obtained from various sources (like river, sea, well etc.) or even synthesized in the laboratory. From whatever source we may get it, 9 parts by weight of water is always found to contain 1 part by weight of hydrogen and 8 parts by weight of oxygen. Thus, in water, this proportion of hydrogen and oxygen always remains constant.
The converse of Law of definite proportions that when same elements combine in the same proportion, the same compound will be formed, is not always true.
DALTON’S ATOMIC THEORY
Dalton put forward his atomic theory of matter in 1808. The various postulates (or assumptions) of Dalton’s atomic theory of matter are as follows :
(i) Al the matter is made up of very small particles called “atoms”.
(ii) Atoms cannot be divided.
(iii) Atoms can neither be created nor be destroyed.
(iv) Atoms are of various kinds. There are as many kinds of atoms as are elements.
(v) All the atoms of given element are identical in every respect, having the same mass, size and chemical properties.
(vi) Atoms of different elements differ in mass, size and chemical properties.
(vii) Chemical combination between two (or more) elements consist of the joining together of atoms of chemical elements to form molecules of compounds.
(viii) The number and kind of atoms in a given compound is fixed.
(ix) During chemical combination, atoms of different elements combine in small whole numbers to form compounds.
(x) Atoms of the same elements can combine in more than one ratio to form more than one compound.
Dalton’s atomic theory provides a simple explanation for the laws of chemical combination and was the first modern attempt to describe the behaviour of matter in terms of atoms.
E.g. he postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory that “atoms can neither be created nor be destroyed” was a result of the law of conservation of mass and the postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory that “the elements consist of atoms having fixed mass, and that the number and kind of atoms in a given compound is fixed,” came from the law of constant proportions.

ATOMS AND MOLECULES
ATOMS
All the matter is made up of atoms. An atom in the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. Atoms of most of the elements are very reactive and do not exist in the free state (as single atoms). They exist in combination with the atoms of the same element or another element. Atoms are very, very small in size. The size of an atom is indicated by its radius which is called “atomic radius” (radius of an atom). Atomic radius is measured in “nanometers” $(nm) . \mathbf{1}$ metre $=\mathbf{1 0}^{9}$ nanometers or $1 nm=10^{-9} m$.
Atoms are so small that we cannot see them under the most powerful optical microscope.
Hydrogen atom is the smallest atom of all, having an atomic radius $0.037 nm$.
(a) Symbols of Elements :
A symbol is a short hand notation of an element which can be represented by a sketch or letter etc.
Alton was the first to use symbols to represent elements is a short way but Dalton’s symbols for elements were difficult to draw and inconvenient to use, so Dalton’s symbols are only of historical importance. They are not used at all.
Element | Dalton’s symbol |
---|---|
Hydrogen Carbon |
0 |
It was J.J. Berzelius who proposed the modern system of representing en element. The symbol of an element is the “first letter” or the “first letter and another letter” of the English name or the Latin name of the element.
Eg. The symbol of Hydrogen is $H$.
The symbol of Oxygen is $O$.
There are some elements whose names begin with the same letter. For example, the names of elements Carbon, Calcium, Chlorine and Copper all begin with the letter C. In such cases, one of the elements is given a “one letter” symbol but all other elements are given a “first letter and another letter” symbol of the English or Latin name of the element. This is to be noted that “another letter” may or may not be the “second letter” of the name. Thus,
The symbol of Carbon is $C$.
The symbol of Calcium is $Ca$.
The symbol of Chlorine is $Cl$.
The symbol of Copper is $Cu$ (from its Latin name Cuprum)
It should be noted that in a “two letter” symbol, the first letter is the “capital letter”
but the second letter is the ‘small letter’
Symbol of Derived from English Names | |
---|---|
English name of the Element | Symbol |
Hydrogen | $H$ |
Helium | $He$ |
Lithium | $Li$ |
Boron | $B$ |
Carbon | $C$ |
Nitrogen | $N$ |
Oxygen | $O$ |
Fluorine | $F$ |
Neon | $Ne$ |
Magnesium | $Mg$ |
Aluminium | $Al$ |
Silicon | $Si$ |
Phosphorous | $P$ |
Sulphur | $S$ |
Chlorine | $Cl$ |
Argon | $Ar$ |
Calcium | $Ca$ |
Symbols Derived from Latin Names
English name of the Element |
Symbol | Latin Name of the Element |
---|---|---|
Sodium | $Na$ | Natrium |
Potassium | $K$ | Kalium |
(b) Significance of The Symbol of an Element :
(i) Symbol represents name of the element.
(ii) Symbol represents one atom of the element.
(iii) Symbol also represents one mole of the element. That is, symbol also represent $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ atoms of the element.
(iv) Symbol represent a definite mass of the element i.e. atomic mass of the element.
Example :
(i) Symbol $H$ represents hydrogen element.
(ii) Symbol $H$ also represents one atom of hydrogen element.
(iii) Symbol $H$ also represents one mole of hydrogen atom.
(iv) Symbol $H$ also represents one gram hydrogen atom.
(c) Atomic Mass of an Element :
Actual masses of the atoms of the elements are very, very small. For example, one atoms of hydrogen
$(H)$ has mass of $\mathbf{1 . 6 7 3} \times \mathbf{1 0 ^ { - 2 4 }}$ gram. To avoid the inconvenience in using such small and complicated figures in our calculation, it was necessary to define atomic mass in such as way that we get simple figures for them. Carbon $\mathbf{- 1 2}$ atom is that atom of carbon which has 6 protons and 6 neutrons in its nucleus, so that its mass number is 12 .
Carbon - $\mathbf{1 2}$ atom has been assigned an atomic mass of exactly 12 atomic mass units, written as $\mathbf{1 2} \mathbf{u}$.
Definition of atomic mass : Atomic mass express as to how many time an atom of a substance is heavier than $\frac{1}{12}$ th mass of the carbon - 12 atom.
Atomic Mass Unit $(u)=$ One - twelfth the mass of a Carbon -12 atom or $1 u=1.6605 \times 10^{-24} g$.
One atomic mass unit (1u) is defined as exactly one-twelfth the mass of an atom of Carbon-12. The atomic mass of an element is the relative mass of its atom as compared with the mass of a Carbon- 12 atom taken as 12 units.
(d) How Do Atoms Exist?
The atoms of only a few elements called noble gases (such as helium, neon, argon and krypton etc.) are chemically uncreative and exist in the free state (as single atoms). Atoms of most of the elements are chemically very reactive and do not exist in the free state (as single atoms).
Atoms usually exist in two ways :
(i) in the form of molecules and
(ii) in the form of ions.
When atoms form molecules or ins, they become stable (because in doing so they acquire the stable electron arrangements of noble gases).
MOLECULES
A molecule is an electrically neutral group of two (or more) atoms chemically bonded together by means of attractive forces.
OR
A molecule is the smallest particle of a substance (element or compound) which has the properties of that substance and can exist in the free state. Molecules can be formed either by the combination of atoms of the “same element” or of “different elements”/
Every compound is a molecule, but every molecule is not a compound.
There are two types of molecules : molecules of elements and molecules of compounds.
(a) Molecules of Elements :
The molecule of an element contains two (or more) similar atoms chemically bonded together. For example, a molecule of hydrogen element contains 2 hydrogen atoms combined together and it is written as $\mathbf{H} _2$ representing Hydrogen gas. Similarly, Ozone gas has 3 oxygen atoms combined together, so ozone exists in the form of $\mathbf{O} _3$. The noble gases like helium, neon, argon and krypton etc., exist as single atoms $He, Ne$, $Ar$ and $Kr$ respectively. So, their atoms and molecules are just the same.
Atomicity of phosphorus is 4 and sulphur is 8 .
(b) Molecules of Compounds :
The molecule of compound contains two (or more) different types of atoms chemically bonded together. For example, the molecule of hydrogen chloride $(HCl)$ contains one atom of hydrogen $(H)$ chemically bonded with one atom of chlorine (Cl). Some more example of the molecules of compounds are : sulphur dioxide $(SO_2)$, methane, $(CH_4)$ and ammonia $(NH_3)$.
(c) Atomicity :
The number of atoms present in one molecule of an element or compound is called it atomicity. For example, the atomicity of noble gases is 1 , that of hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen etc. is 2 each and of ozone is 3. Thus, noble gases, hydrogen and ozone are respectively monatomic, diatomic, and triatomic molecules.
A compound which consists of molecules and not ions, is called a molecular compound.
MOLECULAR MASS
The molecular mass of a substance may be defined as the relative mass of its molecule as compared to the mass of an atom of carbon (carbon - 12) taken as 12 units.
Molecular mass expresses as to how many times a molecular of a substance is heavier than $1 / 12^{\text {th }}$ of the mass of an atom of carbon (carbon-12).
Eg. A molecule of water is 18 times heaver than $1 / 12^{\text {th }}$ of the mass of carbon atom. Therefore, the molecular mass of water is $18 \mathbf{u}$. Similarly, the molecular mass of $CO_2$ is $\mathbf{4 4 u}$.
Calculation : The molecular mass is equal to sum of the atomic masses of all the atoms present in one molecule of the substance.
Eg. The molecular mass of Sulphuric Acid $(H_2 SO_4)$ can be calculated as follows :
Molecular mass of $H_2 SO_4=$ Mass of $2 H$ atoms + Mass of $1 S$ atom + Mass of $4 O$ atoms
$ =(2 \times 1)+(1 \times 32)+(4 \times 16)=2+32+64=94 u . $
Thus, the molecular mass of Sulphuric acid is $98 u$.
Atoms are the components of molecules and the molecules are the components of elements or compounds.

ATOMS AND MOLECULES
IONS
An ion is a positively or negatively charged atom or group of atoms.
Every atom contains equal number of electron (negatively charged) and protons (positively charged). Both charges balance each other, hence atom is electrically neutral.
(a) Cation :
If an atom has less electrons than a neutral atom, then it gets positively charged and a positively charged ion is known as cation.
E.g. Sodium ion $(Na^{+})$, Magnesium ion $(Mg^{2+})$ etc.
A cation bears that much units of positive charge as are the number of electrons lost by the neutral atom to form that cation.
E.g. An aluminum atom loses 3 electrons to form aluminum ion, so aluminum ion bears 3 units of positive charge and it is represented as $Al^{3+}$.
All metal elements form cations.
(b) Anion :
If an atom has more number of electrons than that of neutral atom, then it gets negatively charged and a negatively charged iron is known as union.
E.g. Chloride ion $(Cl^{-})$, oxide ion $(O^{2-})$ etc.
All non-metal elements form anions (except hydrogen).
An anion bears that much units of negative charge as are the number of electrons gained by the neutral atom to form that anion.
E.g. A nitrogen atom gains 3 electrons to form nitride ion, so nitride ion bears 3 units of negative charge and it is represented as $N^{3-}$.
Size of a cation is always smaller and anion is always greater than that of the corresponding neutral atom.
MONOATOMIC AND POLYATOMIC IONS
Monoatomic ions : Those ions which are formed form single atoms are called monoatomic ions or simple ions.
E.g. $Na^{+}, Mg^{2+}$ etc.
Polyatomic ions : Those ions which are formed from group of atoms joined together are called polyatomic ions or compound ions.
E.g. Ammonium ion $(NH_4{ }^{+})$, hydroxide ion $(OH^{-})$etc. which are formed by the joining of two types of atoms, nitrogen and hydrogen in the first case and oxygen and hydrogen in the second.
IONIC COMPOUNDS
Those compounds which are made up of ions (cations and anions) and are held together by strong electrostatic forces of attraction are called ionic compounds.
The forces which hold the ions together in an ionic compound are known as ionic bonds or electrovalent bonds.
E.g. Calcium nitrate $Ca(NO_3)_2$ is an ionic compound, whose one molecule is made up of one calcium ion $(Ca^{2+})$ and two nitrate ions $(NO_3)$, making the overall charge on calcium nitrate zero.
Overall charge on an ionic compound is always zero.
(a) Formula Unit of lonic Compounds :
The simplest combination of ions that produces and electrically neutral unit, is called a formula unit of the ionic compound. Molecular formula of ionic compounds cannot be determined because they consist of large no. of ions. So ionic compounds are represented by formula unit.
Eg. Sodium chloride is an ionic compound which consists of a large number of $Na^{+}$and $Cl^{-}$ ions (but they should be equal in number). So, the actual formula of sodium chloride should be $(Na^{+})_n(Cl^{-})_n$ or $(Na^{+} Cl^{-})_n$, where ’ $n$ ’ is a large number. Nacl is the simplest formula of sodium chloride and thus, the formula unit of sodium chloride is $NaCl$.
FORMULA MASS
The formula mass of an ionic compound is the relative mass of its formula unit as compared with the mass of a carbon atom (carbon - 12) taken as 12 units.
E.g. To find the formula mass of potassium carbonate $(K_2 CO_3)$.
Formula mass of $K_2 CO_3=$ mass of $2 K$ atoms + Mass of $1 C$ atom + Mass of $3 O$ atoms
$ \begin{aligned} & =(2 \times 39)+(1 \times 12)+(3 \times 16) \\ & =78+12+48 \\ & =138 u . \end{aligned} $
Hence, the formula mass of $K_2 CO_3$ is $138 u$.
CHEMICAL FORMULA/MOLECULAR FORMULA
The chemical formula of a compound or an element represent the composition of a molecule of the compound or an element, in terms of the symbols of elements and the number of atoms of each element present in one molecule of the substances.
(a) Formulae of Elements :
The chemical formula of an element is a representation of the composition of its molecule in which symbol represents the element and subscript represents, how many atoms are present in one molecule. E.g. One molecule of hydrogen element contains Two atoms of hydrogen, therefore, the formula of hydrogen is $H_2$. It should, however, be noted that $2 \mathbf{H}$ represents two separate atoms of hydrogen, while $H_2$ represents one molecule of hydrogen.
(b) Formulae of Compounds :
The chemical formula of a compound is representation of the composition of its molecule in which symbol represents, which elements are present and the subscript shows us how many atoms of each element are present in one molecule of a compound. E.g. One molecule of water contains 2 atoms of hydrogen and $\mathbf{1}$ atom of oxygen. Hence, the formula of water is $H_2 O$.
(i) In the chemical formula of a compound, the elements present are denoted by their symbols and the number of atoms of each element are denoted by writing their number as subscripts to the symbols of the respective elements.
E.g. Water is a compound whose one molecule is made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen and hence, its chemical formula is $H_2 O$.
(ii) While writing the formula of an ionic compound, the metal is written on the left hand side, while the non metal is written on the right hand side.
E.g. Magnesium oxide is written as $MgO$, Sodium chloride is written as $NaCl$ etc.
The name of the metal remains as such, but that of the non-metal is changed to have the ending ‘ide’.
(iii) Molecular compounds, formed by the combination between two different non - metals, are written in such a way that the less electronegative element is written on the left hand side, while the more electronegative element is written on the right hand side. In naming molecular compounds, the name of the less negative non-metal is written as such but the name of the more electronegative element is changed to have the ending ‘ide’.
E.g. $H_2 S$ is named as hydrogen sulphide and $HCl$ is named as hydrogen chloride.
(iv) When there are more than one atoms of an element present in the formula of the compound, then the number of atoms are indicated by the use of appropriate prefixes (mono for 1 , di for 2 , tri for 3 , tetra for 4 atoms etc. respectively) in the name of the compound.
E.g. CO is named as carbon monoxide, $CO_2$ is named s carbon dioxide and $CCl_4$ is named as carbon tetrachloride. (v) The prefixes are needed in naming those binary compounds in which the two non-metals form more than one compounds (by having different number of atoms).
E.g. Two non-metals, nitrogen and oxygen, combine to form different compounds like nitrogen monoxide ( $NO$ ), nitrogen dioxide $(NO_2)$, dinitrogen trioxide $(N_2 O_3)$ etc.
(vi) If two non-metals form only one compound, then prefixes are not used in naming such compounds.
E.g. Hydrogen and sulphur combine to form only one compound $H_2 S$. So, $H_2 S$ is named as hydrogen sulphide and not as hydrogen monosulphide.
In a chemical formula higher electronegative element is written on the right side.
WRITTING THE FORKULA OF MOLECULAR COMPOUND
If we know the valencies of the elements involved in a compound, then we can write the formula of the compound by balancing the valencies of different elements. The steps to be followed for writing the formula of molecular compounds are :
(i) First, write the symbols of the elements constituting the compound.
(ii) Then, below each symbol, write its corresponding valency.
(iii) Finally, we exchange the valencies of the combining atoms, i.e. with first atom, we write the valency of the second atom and second atom, we write the valency of the first atom. The valencies are to be written as subscripts to the symbols.
(iv) If the valencies have any common factor, then the formula is divided by that common factor. This gives the required formula of the compound.
Writing the formula of carbon dioxide as an example : Following steps are used to write the formula of carbon dioxide
- Carbon dioxide is a compound composed of two elements, carbon and oxygen. So, we first write their symbols $C$ and $O$ respectively.
- The valency of carbon is 4 and the valency of oxygen is 2 . Now, these valencies are to be written under the corresponding symbols of elements.
-
Now, the valencies of carbon and oxygen are to be exchanged. So, the subscript corresponding to $\mathbf{C}$ is 2 and that corresponding to $O$ is $\mathbf{4}$. Hence, the formula of the compound becomes $C_2 O_4$.
-
But, the valancies 2 and 4 have a common factor 2. So, on dividing the whole formula by 2 , we get the simplest formula $CO_2$. Thus, the formula of carbon dioxide is $CO_2$.
VALLENCY OF IONS
The valency of an ion is same as the charge present on the ion.
if an ion has 1 unit of positive charge, its valency is +1 and it is known as a monovalent cation. If an ion has 2 units of negative charge, its valency is -2 and it is known as a divalent anion.

WRITING THE FORMULA OF IONIC COMPOUNDS
Steps :
(i) First, write the symbols of the ions from which the ionic compound is made. As a convention, the cation is written on the left side, while the anion is written on the right side.
(ii) Them the respective valencies of the respective cation and anion are written below their symbols.
(iii) Then, the valencies of the cation and anion are exchanged. The number of cations and anions in the formula of the compound are adjusted in such a way that total positive charge of cations become equal to the total negative charge of the anions making the ionic compound electrically neutral.
(iv) The final formula of the ionic compound is then written but the charges present on the cation and the anion are not shown.
E.g. Two write the formula for aluminum sulphate
First, write the symbols of aluminum ion and sulphate ion and write their respective valencies below their symbols as shown :
Symbols :
Valencies :
(Charges)
Now, we exchange the valencies. So, -2 gets associated with $Al$ and +3 gets associated with $SO_4$, So, the final formula of the compound aluminum sulphate is $Al_2(SO_4)$ after removing the charges associated with aluminum ion and sulpahte ion.
Ionic compound is electrically neutral as it contains equal number of positive and negative charges.
GRAM ATOMIC MASS AND GRAM MOLECULAR MASS
(a) Gram Atomic Mass
The amount of a substance in grams which is numerically equal to the atomic mass of that substance, is known as gram atomic mass of that substance. If we want to write the gram atomic mass of a substance, we write its atomic mass, remove the atomic mass unit $u$, and add grams to the numerical value of the atomic mass.
Number of gram atoms $=\frac{\text { Mass of the element in grams }}{\text { Atomic mass of the element in grams }}$
E.g. Atomic mass of nitrogen, $(N)=14 u$
So, gram atomic mass of nitrogen $=14$ grams
(b) Molar Mass :
The molar mass of a substance is the mass of 1 mole, i.e. $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ particles, of that substance. Its unit is gram per mole, i.e. $\mathbf{g} / mol$. The molar mass of an element is its atomic mass expressed in $g / mol$ and the molar mass of a compound is its molecular mass expressed in $g / mol$.
E.g. The atomic mass of sodium ( $Na$ ) is $23 u$, so the molar mass of the element sodium ( $Na$ ) is $23 g / mol$.
(c) Gram Molecular Mass:
The amount of a substance in grams which is numerically equal to the molecular mass of that substance, is known as gram molecular mass of that substance. If we want to write the gram molecular mass of a substance, we write its molecular mass, remove the molecular mass unit $u$, and add grams to the numerical value of the molecular mass.
E.g. gram molecular mass of oxygen gas $(O_2)$ is $32 g$.
Number of gram molecules $=\frac{\text { Mass of the substnce in grams }}{\text { Molecular mass of the substance in grams }}$
Gram molecular mass should not be confused with the mass of one molecule of the substance in grams. The mass of one molecule of a substance is known as its actual mass or molecular mass.

ATOMS AND MOLECULES
MOLE CONCEPT
For the counting of articles, the unit dozen or unit gross is commonly used irrespective of their nature.
E.g. One dozen pencils $=12$ pencils
One gross books $=144$ books
In a similar way, for counting of atoms, molecules, ions etc. chemists use the unit “mole”.
A mole is the amount of a substance that contains the same number of entities (i.e. atoms, molecules or ions) as there are atoms in 12 grams of the carbon $ _6^{12} C$.
Mole is a collection of $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ particles (may it be atoms, molecules or ions) of a substance.
E.g. 1 mole of oxygen atoms $(O) \quad=6.023 \times 10^{23}$ atoms of oxygen.
1 mole of oxygen molecules $(O_2)=6.023 \times 10^{23}$ molecules of oxygen.
The number, $6.023 \times 10^{23}$, which represents the number of particles in a mole, is known as Avogadro Number $(N_A)$.
(a) Moles of Atoms :
(i) 1 mole atoms of any element occupy a mass which is equal to the gram atomic mass of that element.
(ii) The symbol of an element represents $\mathbf{6 . 0 2 3} \times \mathbf{1 0 ^ { 2 3 }}$ atoms ( 1 mole of atoms) of that element.
E.g. Symbol $\mathbf{N}$ represents $\mathbf{1}$ mole of nitrogen atoms and $\mathbf{2 N}$ represents $\mathbf{2}$ moles of nitrogen atoms.
The terms mole was introduced by Ostwald in 1896.
(b) Moles of Molecules :
(i) 1 mole molecules of any substance occupy a mass which is equal to the gram molecular mass of that substance.
E.g. 1 mole of water $(H_2 O)$ molecules weight equal to the gram molecular mass of water $(H_2 O)$, i.e. 18 grams.
(ii) The formula of compound represents $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ molecules $(1$ mole of molecules) of that compound.
E.g. Symbol $H_2 O$ represents 1 more of water molecules and $2 H_2 O$ represents 2 moles of water molecules.
NOTE : The symbol $H_2 O$ does not represent 1 mole of $H_2$ molecules and 1 mole of $O$ atoms. Instead, it represents 2 moles of hydrogen atoms and 1 mole of oxygen atoms.
The SI unit of the amount of a substance is Mole.
(c) Mole in Terms of Volume :
Volume occupied by $\mathbf{1}$ gram molecular mass or $\mathbf{1}$ mole of a gas under standard conditions of temperature and pressure ( $273 K$ and $1 atm$ ) is called gram molecular volume. Its value is $\mathbf{2 2 . 4}$ litres for each gas.
1 Mole $=1$ Gram molecular mass
$=22.4$ litre (at NTP)
$=6.023 \times 10^{23}$ molecules
SOME IMPORTANT RELATIONS REGARDING MOLES OF ATOMS
~~ 1. Mass of 1 mole of atoms $=$ Gram atomic mass
~~ 2. 1 mole of atoms $=6.023 \times 10$ - atoms
~~ 3. Gram atomic mass $=$ Mass of $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ atoms
E.g. to calculate the number of moles in 16 grams of sulphur (Atomic mass of sulphur $=32 u$ ).
Solution :
1 mole of atoms $=$ Gram atomic mass.
So, 1 mole of sulphur atoms $=$ Gram atomic mass of sulphur $=32$ grams.
Now, 32 grams of sulphur contains $=1$ mole of sulphur
So, 16 grams of sulphur will contain $=(1 / 32) \times 16$
$ =0.5 mole $
Thus, 16 grams of sulphur constitute 0.5 mole of sulphur.
Mole is the Latin word meaning heap or pile.
SOME USEFUL FORMULAE
(i) Number of moles of atoms $=\frac{\text { Mass of element in grams }}{\text { Gram atomic mass of the element }}$
(ii) Number of moles $=\frac{\text { No. of atoms of element }}{\text { Avogadro’ no of atoms }}=\frac{N}{N_A}$
(iii) Number of moles of molecules $=\frac{\text { Mass of substance in grams }}{\text { Gram molecular mass of substance }}$
(iv) Number of moles of molecules $=\frac{\text { No. of molecules of element }}{\text { Avogadro’ no. of molecules }}=\frac{N}{N_A}$
SOME USEFUL FORMULAE
(i) 1 mole of molecules $=$ Gram molecular mass
(ii) 1 mole of molecules $=6.023 \times 10^{23}$ molecules
(iii) Gram molecular mass $=6.023 \times 10^{23}$ molecules
SOME USEFUL FORMULAE
Example : Calculate the mass of the following :
(i) 0.5 mole of $O_2$ gas
(ii) 0.5 mole of $O$ atoms
(iii) $3.011 \times 10^{23}$ atoms of $O$
(iv) $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ molecules of $O_2$.
(Given : Gram atomic mass of oxygen $=16 g$, gram molecular mass of oxygen $(O_2)=32 g$ ).
Solution : (i) 0.5 mole of $O_2$ gas
No. of moles $=\frac{\text { Mass of } O_2 \text { in grams }}{\text { Gram molecular mass }}=\frac{\mathbf{m}}{M}$
$\therefore$ Mass of $O_2$ in grams $(m)=$ No. of moles $\times M$
$ =0.5 \times(32 g)=16 g $
(ii) 0.5 mole of oxygen ( 0 ) atoms
No. of moles $=\frac{\text { Mass of oxygen }(O) \text { in grams }}{\text { Gram atomic mass }}=\frac{\mathbf{m}}{\mathbf{M}}$
Mass of oxygen ( $O$ ) in grams $(m)=$ No. of moles $\times M$
$ =0.5 \times(16 g)=8 g $
(ii) $3.011 \times 10^{23}$ atoms of oxygen ( 0 )
Step I : Calculation of no. of gram atoms of oxygen
No . of gram atoms $=\frac{\text { No. of atoms of oxygen }}{\text { Avogadro no. of atoms }}=\frac{N}{N_A}$
$ =\frac{3.011 \times 10^{23}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}=0.5 \text { gram atoms } $
Step II : Calculation of mass of oxygen $(O)$ atoms
Mass of oxygen $(O)$ atoms $=$ Gram atomic mass of oxygen $\times$ No. of gram atoms of oxygen.
$ =16 \times 0.5=8 g . $
(iv) $6.023 \times 10^{23}$ molecules of oxygen $(O_2)$ -
Step I : Calculation of no. of moles of oxygen.
No. of moles $=\frac{\text { No. of molecules oxygen }}{\text { Avogadro no. of molecules }}=\frac{N}{N_A}$
$ =\frac{6.023 \times 10^{23}}{6.023 \times 10^{23}}=1 mole $
Step II : Calculation of mass of oxygen $(O_2)$ molecules.
Mass of oxygen $(O_2)$ molecules $=$ Gram molecular mass of oxygen $x$ No. of moles of oxygen .

STRUCTURE OF ATOM
INTRODUCTION
(i) The idea of tiniest unit of matter (Anu and Parmanu) was propounded by maharishi Kanad in Vedic period in our country.
(ii) Democritus, a Greek philosopher also proposed that matter is made up of extremely small particles, the “atom”. The name atom comes from Greek language.
(iii) John Dalton in $\mathbf{1 8 0 8}$ published theory of atom assuming that atoms are the ultimate indivisible particles of matter.
(iv) Later the works $f$ William Crookes (1878) , J.J. Thomson (1897) and Goldstein proved that atom of any element contains smaller particles which are either positively charged or negatively charged.
(v) Work of Rutherford and Neils Bohr confirmed that an atom consists of three subatomic particles, that are electrons, protons and neutrons.
(vi) It has been established that the central core of an atom consists of protons and neutrons and is commonly called nucleus. The electrons revolve around the nucleus.
(vii) The atom as a whole is electrically neutral as the number of protons in it, is equal to the number of electrons.
The smallest indivisible particle or unit of an element is called an atom, which can take part in a chemical reaction and may or may not exist independently.
An element is a pure substance which cannot be subdivided into two or more new substances by any means.
The word “ATOM” is given by “John Dalton”.
FUNDAMENTAL PARTICLES OF AN ATOM
(a) Electron :
Electron has a negative charge on it, its mass is $\mathbf{1 / 1 8 3 7}$ times the mass of one atom of hydrogen. It is denoted by the symbol $ _{-1}^{0} \theta$, where 0 denotes its mass and -1 denotes its charge. Electrons in the outer most shell are called valence electrons.
(b) Proton :
Proton has a unit positive charge, it is denoted by the symbol $ _{+1}^{1} p$, where 1 denotes it atomic mass and +1 denotes its charge.
(c) Neutron :
Neutron has no electric charge on it. Its mass is almost equal to the mass of one atom of hydrogen. it is denoted by the symbol $ _0^{1} n$, where 1 denotes its atomic mass and 0 denotes its charge.
In the neutral atom the total number of protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of electrons revolving round the nucleus.
Property | Electron | Proton | Neutron |
---|---|---|---|
1. Discovery | J.J. Thomson | E. Goldstein | James Chadwick |
2. Symbol | $e$ | $p$ | $n$ |
3. Nature | Negatively charged | Positively charged | Neutral |
4. Relative charge | -1 | +1 | 0 |
5. Absolute charge | $1.602 \times 10^{-19} C$ | $1.602 \times 10-19 C$ | 0 |
6. Relative mass | $\frac{1}{1837}$ | 1 | 1 |
7. Absolute mass | $9.109 \times 10^{-28} g$ | $1.6725 \times 10^{-24} g$ | $1.6748 \times 10^{-24} g$ |
THOMSONS MODEL OF AN ATOM
After the discovery of electrons and protons J.J. Thomson (1898) tried to explain the arrangement of electrons and protons within the tom. He proposed that an atom consists of a sphere of positive electricity in which electrons are embedded like plum in pudding or seeds evenly distributed in red spongy mass in watermelon. The radius of the sphere is of the other $10^{-8} cm$ which is equal to the size of the atom. Although Thmoson’s model could explain the electrical neutrality of an atom but this model could not satisfy experimental facts proposed by Rutherford and hence was discarded.
“Proton is a sub - atomic particle having a unit positive charge $(+1.602 \times 10^{-19} kg)$ & mass $(1.6725 \times 10^{-27} kg)$ which is about 1837 times greater than the mass of an electron.”
RUTHERFORD’S MODEL OF AN ATOM
(a) Rutherford’s Alpha Scattering Experiment :
Ernest Rutherford and his coworkers performed numerous experiments in which $\alpha$-particles emitted from a radioactive element such as polonium were allowed to strike thin sheets of metals such as gold and platinum.
(i) A beam of $\alpha$-particles $(He^{2+})$ we obtained by placing polonium in a lead box and letting the alpha particles come out of a pinhole in the lead box. This beam of $\alpha$-rays was directed against a thin gold foil $(0.00004 \mathbf{c m})$. A circular screen coated with zinc sulphide was placed on the other side of the foil.
(ii) About $99 %$ of the $\alpha$-particles passed undeflected through the gold foil and caused illumination of zinc sulphide screen.
(iii) Very few $\alpha$-particles underwent small and large deflections after passing through the gold foil.
(iv) A very few (about 1 in 20,000) were deflected backward on their path at an angle of $180^{\circ}$.
Rutherford was able to explain these observations as follows :
(i) Since a large number of $\alpha$-particles pass through the atom undeflected, hence, there must be large empty space within the atom.
(ii) As some of the $\alpha$-particles got defleted, therefore, there must be something massive and positively charged present in the atom.
(iii) The number of $\alpha$-particles which got deflected is very small, therefore, the whole positive charge in the atom is conventratted in a very small space.
(iv) Some of the $\alpha$-particles retracted their path i.e. came almost straight back towards the sources as a result of their direct collisions with the heavy mass.
$\alpha$ - particles are made up of two protons and two neutrons and are He nuclei.
The positively charged heavy mass which occupies only a small space as compared to the total space occupied by the atom is called nucleus.
(b) Rutherford’s Nuclear Model of Atom :
Rutherford proposed a new picture of the structure of the atom. Main feature of this model are as follows
(i) The atom of an element consists of a small positively charged “Nucleus” which is situated at the centre of the atom and which carries almost the entire mss of the atom.
(ii) The electrons are distributed in the empty space of the atom around the nucleus in different concentric circular paths (orbits).
(iii) The number of electrons in the orbits is equal to the total number of protons in the nucleus.
(iv) Volume of nucleus is very small as compared to the volume of atom.
(v) Most of the space in the atom is empty.
The stability of such a system in which negatively charged electrons surround a positively charged nucleus was explained by proposing that the electrons revolve around the nucleus at very high speed in circular orbits. This arrangement is just like our solar system. The high sped of the moving electrons given them a centrifugal force acting away from the nucleus. The centrifugal force balance the electrostatic force of attraction acting between the nucleus and the electrons.
(c) Defects in Rutherford’s Model :
(i) Rutherford did not specify the number of electrons in each orbit.
(ii) According to electromagnetic theory, if a charged particle (electron) is accelerated around another charged particle (nucleus) then there would be continuous radiation of energy. This loss of energy would slow down the speed of electron and eventually the electron would fall into the nucleus. But such a collapse does not occur. Rutherford’s model could not explain this theory.

STRUCUTRE OF ATOM
BOHR’S MODEL OF AN ATOM
Rutherford’s model of the atom was unable to explain certain observations with regard to the atom i.e. stability of the atom and the occurrence of the atomic spectra. Neils Bohr accepted Rutherford’s idea that the positive charge and most of the mass of the atom is concentrated in its nucleus with the electrons present at some distance away.
According to Bohr’s theory -
(i) Electrons revolve around the nucleus in well defined orbits or shells, each shell having a definite amount of energy associated with the electrons in it. Therefore, these shells are also called energy levels.
(ii) The energy associated with the electrons in an orbit increases as the radius of the orbit increases. These shells are known as K, L, M, $\mathbf{N}$ etc. starting from the one closest to the nucleus.
(iii) An electron in a shell can more to a higher or lower energy shell by absorbing or releasing a fixed amount of energy.
(iv) The amount of energy absorbed or emitted is given by the difference of energies associated with the two energy levels.
Energy absorbed, $\quad \Delta E=E_2-E_1=h \nu$
Energy emitted, $\quad \Delta E=E_2-E_1=h v$
Where $h$ is Plank’s constant $(h=6.62 \times 10^{-34} Js)$ and $v$ is the frequency of the radiation.
ATOMIC STRUCTURE
An atom consists of two parts :
(a) Nucleus :
Nucleus is situated in the centre of an atom. All the protons & neutrons are situated in the nucleus, therefore, the entire mass of an atom is almost concentrated in the nucleus. The overall charge of nucleus is positive due to the presence of positively charged protons (neutrons present have no charge). The protons & neutrons are collectively called nucleons. The radius of the nucleus of an atom is of the order of $10^{-15} m$.
(b) Extra nuclear region :
In extra nuclear part or in the region outside the nucleus, electrons are present which revolve around the nucleus in orbits of fixed energies. These orbits are called energy levels. These energy levels are designated as K, L, M, $\mathbf{N}$ and so on.
The maximum number of electrons that can be accommodated in a shell is given by the formula $\underline{2 n}^{2}$ (where $n=$ number of shell i.e. $.1,2,3–)$
Shell | $\mathbf{n}$ | $\mathbf{2 n}^{\mathbf{2}}$ | max. no. of $\mathbf{e}^{-}$ |
---|---|---|---|
$K$ | 1 | $2(1)^{2}$ | 2 |
$L$ | 2 | $2(2)^{2}$ | 8 |
$M$ | 3 | $2(3)^{2}$ | 18 |
$N$ | 4 | $2(4)^{2}$ | 32 |
Each energy level is further divided into subshells designated as $\underline{\text { s.p.d.f. }}$
1 st shell $(K)$ contains 1 subshell (s)
2nd shell ( $L$ ) contains 2 subshells (s,p)
3rd shell ( $M$ ) contains 3 subshells $(s, p, d)$
4 th shell $(N)$ contains 4 subshells $(s, p, d, f)$.
ORBITALS
Like shells are divided into subshells, subshells further contain orbitals.
An orbital may be defined as a
“Region in the three - dimensional space around the nucleus where the probability of finding an electron is maximum. The maximum capacity of each orbital is that of two electrons.”
Subshell | Orbital (s) | Max. no. of electrons |
---|---|---|
s | 1 | 2 |
p | 3 | 6 |
d | 5 | 10 |
f | 7 | 14 |
The total number of nucleons is equal to the mass number $(A)$ of the atom.

VALENCY
Valency of an element is the combining capacity of the atoms of the element with atoms of the same or different elements. The combining capacity of the atoms of other elements was explained in terms of their tendency to attain a fully - filled outermost shell (stable octet or duplet).
The number of electrons gained, lost or contributed for sharing by an atom of the element gives us directly the combining capacity or valency of the element.
Valency of an element is determined by the number of valence electrons in an atom of the element.
The valency of an element $=$ number of valence electrons
The valency of an element $=8$ - number of valence electrons.
(when number of valence electrons are more than 4)
eg. Na has 1 valence electron, thus, its valency is 1 .
$Cl$ has 7 valence electrons, thus, its valency is $8-7=1$.
ATOMIC NUMBER (Z)
The number of protons is the nucleus of an atom of a given element is called the atomic number of that element.
or
Atomic number is the number of protons present in the atom of an element. It is denoted. by “Z”
Atomic number $\boldsymbol{=}$ Number of protons $\boldsymbol{=}$ Number of electrons
(in a neutral atom)
Atomic number $=$ Number of protons
(in an ion)
e.g. $ _{11} Na$
-
Atomic number of sodium is 11
-
Nucleus of sodium has 11 protons.
-
Nucleus of sodium has 11 units of positive charge.
-
There are 11 electrons, revolving round the nucleus of sodium.
The atomic number is represented on the LHS of the symbol of the element as subscript.
MASS NUBER (A)
Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons present in the atom of an element. It is denoted by “A”. The mass number is represented either on the left hand side (LHS) or on the right hand side (RHS) of the symbol of the element as superscript.
Mass number $=$ Number of protons + Number of neutrons.
e.g. $ _13^{27} Al$
-Mass number of aluminum is 27.
-The total number of protons and neutrons is the nucleus of aluminum is 27.
-Number of protons is 13.
-Number of neutrons is $=27-13=14$.
(a) Relation between $Z, A$ and $N$
$A=Z+N$
$Z=$ Number of Protons
$N=$ Number of neutrons
$A=$ Mass number
$\therefore N=A-Z$
ISOTOPES
(a) Atoms of same element having the same chemical properties, but differing in mass are known as isotopes.
The isotopes of an element have the same atomic number but different atomic masses. Isotopes have the same electrical charges means same number of protons. The difference in their masses is due to the presence of different number of neutrons.
e.g. (a) Isotopes of hydrogen
Protium $ _1^{1} H$ |
Deuterium $ _1^{2} H$ |
Tritium $ _1^{3} H$ $ _1$ |

---|---|---|---|
1. Atomic number | $\mathbf{1}$ | $\mathbf{1}$ | $\mathbf{1}$ |
2. No. of protons | $\mathbf{1}$ | $\mathbf{1}$ | $\mathbf{1}$ |
3. No. of electrons | 1 | 1 | 1 |
4. No. of neutrons | 0 | 1 | 2 |
5. Mass number | $\mathbf{1}$ | 2 | 3 |
(b) Isotopes of oxygen
Characteristics | Oxygen isotopes |
$ _8^{16} O$ | $ _8^{17} O$ | $ _8^{18} O$ |
---|---|---|---|---|
1. Atomic number | 8 | 8 | 8 | |
2. No. of protons | 8 | 8 | 8 | |
3. No. of electrons | 8 | 8 | 8 | |
4. No. of neutrons | 8 | 9 | 10 | |
5. Mass number | 16 | 17 | 18 |
All the isotopes of an element have identical chemical properties.
(b) Characteristics of Isotopes :
(i) The physical properties of the isotopes of an element are different number of neutrons in their nuclei. Hence mass, density and other physical properties of the isotopes of an element are different.
(ii) All the isotopes of an element contains the same number of electrons. So, they have the same electronic configuration with the same number of valence electrons. Since the chemical properties of an element are determined by the number of valence electrons in its atom, all the isotopes of an element have identical chemical properties.
(c) Reason for the fractional atomic masses of elements :
The atomic masses of many elements are in fraction and not whole number. The fractional atomic masses of elements are due to the existence of their isotopes having different masses.
e.g. :
The atomic mass of chlorine is $\mathbf{3 5 . 5} u$. Chlorine has two isotopes $ _17^{35} Cl$ and $ _17^{37} Cl$ with abundance of $75 %$ and $25 %$ respectively. Thus the average mass of a chlorine atom will be $75 %$ of $Cl-35$ and $25 %$ of $Cl-37$, which is $35.5 u$.
i.e., average atomic mass of chlorine $=35 \times \frac{75}{100}+37 \times \frac{25}{100}$
$ \begin{aligned} & =\frac{2625}{100}+\frac{925}{100} \\ & =26.25+9.25 \\ & =35.5 u . \end{aligned} $
Thus, the average atomic mass of chlorine is $35.5 u$.
Similarly, average atomic mass of copper is $63.5 u$.
(d) Applications of Radioactive isotopes :
(i) In agriculture : Certain elements such as boron, cobalt, copper, manganese, zinc and molybdenum are necessary is very minute quantities for plant nutrition.
By radioactive isotopes we van identify the presence and requirements of these element in the nutrition of plants.
(ii) In industry : Coating on the arm of clock to seen in dark. To identify the cracks in metal casting.
(iii) In medicine : Thyroid, bone diseases, brain tumours and cancer and diagnosed, controlled or destroyed with the help of radioactive isotopes like $ _27^{60} Co, _21^{24} Na$, iodine, phosphorus etc. (iv) Determination of the mechanism of chemical reaction : by replacing an atom or molecule by its isotope.
(v) In carbon dating : Will and Libby (1960) developed the technique of radiocarbon dating to determine the age of plants, fossils and archeological samples.
Isotopes (Like Uranium - 238) are used in nuclear reactor to produce energy and power.
ISOBARS
the atoms of different elements with different atomic numbers, but same mass number are called isobars.
e.g. $ _6^{14} C$ and $ _7^{14} N$ are isobars $ _20^{40} Ca$ and $ _18^{40} Ar$ are isobars
Characteristics \ Isobars | $ _18^{40} Ar$ | $ _20^{40} Ca$ |
---|---|---|
1. Atomic number | 18 | 20 |
2. Mass number | 40 | 40 |
3. No. of electrons | 18 | 20 |
4. No. of protons | 18 | 20 |
5. No. of neutrons | 22 | 20 |
6. Electronic configuration | 2.8 .8 | $2,8,8,2$ |
ISOTONES
The isotones may be defined as the atoms of different elements containing same number of neutrons.
e.g. $ _6^{13} C$ and $ _7^{14} N$
Number of neutrons $(N)=A-Z$
For $ _6^{13} CN=13-6 \quad$ For $ _7^{14} N N=14-7$
Other example $ _14^{30} Si _15^{31} P$ and $ _16^{32} S$
ISOELECTRIC
Ion or atom or molecule which have the same number of electrons are called as isoelectronic species.
e.g. | $Cr^{-}$ | $Ar$ | $K^{+}$ | $Ca^{+2}$ |
---|---|---|---|---|
No. of electrons | 18 | 18 | 18 | 18 |
Isobars contain different number of electrons, protons and neutrons.
SOLVED EXAMPLES
~~ 1. Calculate the number of electrons, protons and neutrons in the following species. (i) Phosphorus atom Mass number : (ii) Phosphide ion $(P^{3-})$ (iii) Magnesium ion $(Mg^{2+})$ Atomic numbers : $P=31, Mg=24$ $P=15, Mg=12$
Sol. (i) Phosphorus atom
Number of electrons $=$ Atomic number $=15$
Number of protons $=$ Atomic number $=15$
Number of neutrons $=$ Mass number - Atomic number $=31 \mathbf{- 1 5}=13$.
(ii) Phosphide ion $(P^{3-})$.
Phosphide ion $(P^{3-})=$ Phosphorus atom +3 electrons
$P^{3-} \equiv P+3 e$
Thus, phosphide ion has same number of protons and neutrons as phosphorus atom but has three electrons more.
Number of electrons $\quad=\quad 15+3=18$
Number of protons
$=15$
Number of neutrons
$=31-15=16$
(iii) Magnesium ion $(Mg^{2+})$
$Mg^{2+}$ ion is formed by the loss of two electrons by $Mg$ atom. Therefore, it has two electrons less than the number of electrons is $Mg$ atom.
Number of electrons
$=12-2=10$
Number of protons
$=12$
Number of neutrons $\quad=\quad(24-12)=12.$
~~ 2. The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom of mass number 97 is 41 . What will be the number of neutrons in its isotope of mass number 99 ?
Sol. The atomic number of isotopes is same. Therefore, the number of protons in both the atoms is same.
Mass number $=\quad$ Number of protons + Number of neutrons
$\therefore$ Number of neutrons $\quad=\quad$ Mass number - Number of protons
$=\quad 99-41=58$
~~ 3. Give number of protons and neutrons in $ _92^{238} U$.
Sol. From the given symbol it is clear that the atomic number of uranium is 92 and its mass number is 238 . Now, number of protons $=$ Atomic number $=92$ Number of neutrons $=\quad$ Mass number - Atomic number $=\quad 238-92=146$
~~ 4. Calculate the atomic number of an element whose mass number is 31 and number of neutrons is 13 . What is the symbol of the element?
Sol. We know that, mass number $=$ Number of protons + Number of neutrons
But number of protons is equal to the atomic number. $\therefore$ Mass number $=\quad$ Atomic number + number of neutron or Atomic number $\quad=\quad$ Mass number - number of neutron $=31-16=15$ The element with atomic number 15 is phosphorus which has symbol $\mathbf{P}$.
~~ 5. If bromine atom is available in the form of, say two isotopes $ _35^{79} Br(49.7 %)$ and $ _35^{81} Br(50.3 %)$, calculate the average atomic mass of bromine atom.
Sol. $%$ of $Br(79)=49.7 ; %$ of $Br(81)=50.3$
Atomic mass of $\begin{aligned} Br= & \frac{79 \times 49.7+81 \times 50.3}{100} \\ & =\quad 80.0\end{aligned}$
Thus, atomic mass of bromine is $\mathbf{8 0 . 0}$
~~ 6. An isotope has atomic number 17 and mass number 37 . What is the arrangement of electrons in the shells of this isotope? State nuclear composition of this isotope.
Sol. Number of electrons $=$ Atomic number $=17$
Number of protons $=$ Atomic number $=17$
Number of neutrons $=\quad$ Mass number - Atomic number $=37-17=20$
Nucleus of the isotope contains $\mathbf{1 7}$ protons and $\mathbf{2 0}$ neutrons.
~~ 7. An element has 2 electrons is the M-shell. What is the electronic configuration of the element and what is its atomic number?
Sol. The 2 electrons in $M$-shell indicates that the $K$ and $L$ - shell must be full. $K$ - shell can accommodate a maximum of 2 electrons while L-shell can accommodate a maximum of 8 electrons. Thus, the electronic configuration of the element may be written as :
K L $\quad$ M
$\begin{matrix} 2 & 8 & 2\end{matrix} $
The total number of electrons is an atom of the element is $2+8+2=12$
Therefore, atomic number of element is 12 .
~~ 8. How will you find the valency of chlorine, sulphur and magnesium ?
Sol. (i) The atomic number of $Cl$ is 17 . Its electronic configuration is
$K$ | $L$ | $M$ |
---|---|---|
2 | 8 | 7 |
$\mathbf{C l}$ has 7 electrons in the valence shell. It needs one more electron to complete its octet. Hence, its valency is 1.
(ii) The atomic number of $S$ is 16 . Its electronic configuration is
$K$ | $L$ | $M$ |
---|---|---|
2 | 8 | 6 |
$\mathbf{S}$ has 6 electrons is the valence shell. It requires two more electrons to complete its octet. Hence, its valency is 2 .
(iii) The atomic number of $Mg$ is 12 . Its electronic configuration is
$K$ | $L$ | $M$ |
---|---|---|
2 | 8 | 2 |
Mg has only 2 electrons in the valence shell. By losing these 2 electrons it can attain octet of electrons in its outer most shell. Hence, it valency is 2.
