Some basic concept of Chemistry - 3 for dmlt and paramedical student

              Properties of Matter 

                  The properties of matter are as follows:

(i) Mass and weight:
       Mass represents the amount of substance present in a system, while

      weight represents the force due to gravity exerted on that system.

Weight (W) = mass(m) x gravity(g)

(ii) Volume:
              It is the quantity of three-dimensional space enclosed by a matter.
                   Volume of different bodies are calculated differently,
e.g. for cuboidal body,

Volume (V) = length (1) x breadth (b) x height (h)

for a spherical body.
                . '. Volume =(4/3) π r3

(iii) Density:
        Density is defined as mass per unit volume.
It gives us an idea that how denser or rarer a matter is packed.
   Density (d) = mass (m)/volume (V)

(iv) Temperature :
                   Temperature of a body is the intensity of heat associated with it.

SI and NON-SI UNITS:

The metric system of measurement, the International system of units (SI Units), is widely used for quantitative measurements of matter in science and in most countries.
        However, different systems of measurement existed before the SI system was introduced.

       Any units used in other system of measurement (i.e. not included in the SI system of measurement), will be referred to as non-SI units.
In most science courses, non-SI Units are not be used regularly.

Introduction Non-SI units existed long before the invention of SI units. However, these units have been replaced by the standard SI Units in most countries.

 The countries that have continued to use non-SI units, such as the United States, keep these units mainly for economic, business, and cultural reasons. The following table will introduce some of the commonly used non-SI units, as well as their SI counterparts:

Some basic concept of Chemistry notes - 2

LAW OF CHEMICAL COMBINATIONS:

1)Law of Conservation of Mass:

It states that "matter can neither be created nor destroyed".

2)Law of Definite Proportions:

 It stated that "a given compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by weight".

Example : Oxygen and hydrogen in water always bear ratio of 16:2 or 8:1 by mass.

3)Law of Multiple Proportions:

According to this law, "if two elements can combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the other element, are in the ratio of small whole numbers".

Example

Hydrogen + Oxygen — Water
2g                       16g            18g 

Hydrogen + Oxygen — Hydrogen Peroxide
  2g                      32g                 34g

Here, the masses of oxygen (i.e. 16 g and 32 g) which combine with a fixed mass of hydrogen (2g) bear a simple ratio, i.e. 16:32 or 1: 2.

4)Gay Lussac's Law of Gaseous Volumes:

when gases combine or are produced in a chemical reaction they do so in a simple ratio by volume provided all gases are at same temperature and pressure.

Example:
Hydrogen + Oxygen — Water
  100 mL          50 mL      100 mL

Thus,
the volumes of hydrogen and oxygen which combine together (i.e. 100 mL and 50 mL) bear a simple ratio of 2:1

5)Avogadro Law:

Avogadro proposed that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure should contain equal number of molecules.

Example .
Hydrogen + Oxygen — Water

we see that two volumes of hydrogen combine with one volume of oxygen to give two volumes of water without leaving any unreacted oxygen.


DALTON'S ATOMIC THEORY:

1. Matter consists of indivisible atoms.
2. All the atoms of a given element have identical properties including identical mass. Atoms of different elements differ in mass.

3. Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine in a fixed ratio.

4. Chemical reactions involve reorganization of atoms. These are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

5.Dalton's theory could explain the laws of chemical combination.

What is chemistry ?

Chemistry is the science of molecules and their transformations. Chemistry is called the science of atoms and molecules.
Chemistry is the branch of science that studies the composition, properties and interaction of matter.

what is the importance of chemistry?

(1) Chemistry plays an important role in meeting human needs for food, health care products and other materials
(2) Production of a variety of fertilizers, improved varieties of pesticides and insecticides
(3) Preparation of drugs isolated from plant and animal sources or prepared by synthetic methods.
(4) Design and synthesize new materials having specific magnetic, electric and optical properties.
(5) Production of superconducting ceramics, conducting polymers, optical fibres and large scale miniaturization of solid state devices.

What is matter ? 
Anything which has mass and occupies space is called matter.

 for example, book, pen, pencil, water, air, all living beings etc. are composed of matter.

Classification of matter: 

The matter can exist in three physical states viz. solid, liquid and gas.

Solid : Solids have definite volume and definite shape. Reason In solids, these particles are held very close to each other in an orderly fashion and there is not much freedom of movement.

Liquid Liquids have definite volume but not the definite shape. They take the shape of the container in which they are placed.
Reason In liquids, the particles are close to each other but they can move around

Gas: Gases have neither definite volume nor definite shape. They completely occupy the container in which they are placed.

Reason :in gases, the particles are far apart as compared to those present in solid or liquid states and their movement is easy and fast.

Matter can be classified based on chemical state. 

Mixture : A mixture contains two or more substances present in it (in any ratio) which are called its components.

 For example, sugar solution in water, air, tea etc.

Mixtures are two types:

homogeneous mixtures :

 the components completely mix with each other and its composition is uniform throughout.

Examples Sugar solution, air 

heterogeneous mixtures: 

the composition is not uniform throughout and sometimes the different components can be observed.

Example: mixtures of salt and sugar

Pure substances: They have fixed composition . constituents components of pure substances cannot be separated by simple

physical methods. 

Examples Copper, silver, gold, water, glucose etc 

Pure substances can be further classified into 

                         elements and compounds 

Elements: 

An element consists of only one type of particles. These particles may be atoms or molecules. Examples: Sodium, copper, silver, hydrogen, oxygen etc. 

Compound: 

When two or more atoms of different elements combine, the molecule of a compound is obtained.

the properties of a compound are different from those of its constituent elements. 

Constituent particles can be separated by chemical methods. 

The examples of some compounds are water, ammonia, carbon dioxide, sugar etc 

What are the physical properties of the matter? 

Physical properties are those properties which can be measured or observed without changing the identity or the composition of the substance. 

Examples: colour, odour, melting point,boiling point, density etc.

What are the chemical properties? 

The chemical properties are those properties which require a chemical changes to occurs. 

Examples: acidity or basicity, combustability.

Manufacture of nitric acid by ostwald's process and video clip in kannada medium

Manufacturing of nitric acid by Ostwald process

Step 1 — Primary oxidation (formation of nitric acid)

Oxidation of ammonia is carried out in a catalyst chamber in which ammonia and oxygen 1:8 by volume are introduced. The temperature of chamber is about 700'C. This chamber contains a platinum gauze which serves as catalyst.

Oxidization of ammonia is reversible and exothermic process. ammonia is converted into nitric oxide (NO).

4NH3 + 5O2 - - - >4NO + 6H2O 

Step 2 — Secondary oxidation (formation of nitrogen dioxide)

Nitric oxide gas obtained by the oxidation of ammonia is very hot. In order to reduce its temperature, it is passed through a heat exchanger where the temperature of nitric oxide is reduces to 200'C. Nitric oxide after cooling is transferred to another oxidizing tower where at about 50'C it is oxidized to nitrogen dioxide (NO2).

2NO + O2 ----> 2 NO2

Step 3 — Absorption of NO2 (formation of HNO3)

Nitrogen dioxide from secondary oxidation chamber is introduced into a special absorption tower. NO2 gas passed through the tower and water is showered over it. By the absorption, nitric acid is obtained.

3NO2 + H2O - - - -> 2HNO3 + NO

Nitric acid so obtain is very dilute. It is recycled in absorption tower so that more and more NO2 get absorbed. HNO3 after recycle becomes about 68 per cent concentrated.

Step 4 — Concentration:

In order to increase the concentration of HNO3, vapors of HNO3 are passed over concentrated H2SO4. Being a dehydrating agent, H2SO4 absorbs water from HNO3 and concentrated HNO3 is obtained.

Electrochemistry- Electrolytes and Non electrolytes

Electrolytes and Non-electrolytes:

Electrolytes: 

1)Electrolytes are chemical compounds that can break down into ions when dissolved in water.

2)Electrolytes can conduct electricity through their aqueous solutions.

3)Electrolytes are composed of ionic bonds.

4)Electrolytes are ionic compounds. Acids, base and salts are electrolytes.

5)Electrolytes can be found as strong electrolytes and weak electrolytes.

Non-electrolytes:

1)Nonelectrolytes are chemical compounds whose aqueous solutions cannot conduct electricity through the solution.

2)Nonelectrolytes cannot conduct electricity through their aqueous solutions.

3)Nonelectrolytes are composed of covalent bonds.

4)Nonelectrolytes are covalent compounds. Carbon-containing compounds, fat and sugar are nonelectrolytes.

5)Nonelectrolytes cannot be found as water-soluble compounds and water-insoluble compounds.

Lowry and Bronsted  concept of acids and  bases:

• According to Brønsted-Lowry theory acid is a proton (hydrogen ion) donor.
• According to Brønsted-Lowry theory base is a proton (hydrogen ion) acceptor.

For exmapl, consider the following chemical equation:

HCl(aq)+NH3(aq)---->NH+4(aq)+Cl−

Here, hydrochloric acid (HCl) "donates" a proton (H+) to ammonia (NH3) which "accepts" it , forming a positively charged ammonium ion (NH4+) and a negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-).

 Therefore, HCl is a Brønsted-Lowry acid (donates a proton) while the ammonia is a Brønsted-Lowry base (accepts a proton). Also, Cl- is called the conjugate base of the acid HCl and NH4+ is called the conjugate acid of the base NH3.

 Arrhenius theory of electrolytic dissociation (Ionic theory):

Postulates of the theory are : 

1) When an electrolyte is dissolved in water, its molecules spontaneously split into positively and negatively charged particles called ions. This process is called `dissociation or 'ionisation'. 

2) In a solution, the total positive charges on all the cations (+ve ions) and negative charges on all the anions (--ve ions) are exactly equal. Hence, the whole solution is electrically neutral. 

3) Ions are responsible for the passage of electric current through electrolytes.

4) Ionisation is a reversible process

5) The degree of ionisation of an electrolyte increases with dilution.

6) The properties of electrolytes are the properties of ions present in them.

 Evidences (merits) for Arrhenius theory:

 1) The theory satisfactorily explains the phenomenon of electrolysis and Faraday's laws of electrolysis.

2) Experimental observation shows that the conductance of a solution increases upon dilution. This is in agreement with the theory as more ions are formed during dilution.

3) The solutions of copper sulphate, cupric nitrate, cupric chloride are all blue because they all contain Cu2+ ions. This confirms that properties of electrolytes are properties of ions present in them.

4) Silver nitrate solution reacts with solutions of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, barium chloride etc. to develop a curdy white precipitate. This is possible because all these solutions contain chloride ions which combine with Ag+ ions of silver nitrate. 

        Ag+ + Cl-    - - - - - - - - >  Agcl

5) Ionic theory explains the constancy in enthalpy of neutralisation of any strong acid with any strong base.

6) Arrhenius theory explains the abnormality in the colligative properties (Eg.: osmotic pressure, elevation in boiling point etc.

Limitations (demerits) of Arrhenius theory:

1) The x-ray analysis of crystals like sodium chloride shows the existence of ions even in the solid state. Ions are also present in the molten state. However, according to the theory, ions are formed only in solution. 

2)The theory does not explain why ionisation takes place at all when an electrolyte is dissolved in water.

3)This theory not explain where the required energy for ionisation comes from.

4)The theory does not explain distinguish between the two types of electrolytes.

pH of a solution:

It is defined as 'negative logarithm to the base ten of molar concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution'. 

 pH = - log [H+]

pOH of a solution:

pOH of a solution is defined as 'negative logarithm to the base ten of molar concentration of hydroxyl ions in a solution'. 


pOH= - log[OH-]

pH scale: 

pH of a solution varies between 0 and 14. For neutral solution, pH is 7. For acidic solution, pH is between 0 and 7. For basic solution, pH is between 7 and 14. 

X-ray production and their applications IN KANNADA MEDIUM VIDEO FOR DMLT AND PARAMEDICAL STUDENTS

What is X-ray...??
X-rays are a very energetic form of electromagnetic radiation that can be used to take images of the human body.

X-rays also have these properties:

• they have a very short wavelength (about the same size as the diameter of an atom.
• they cause ionisation (adding or removing electrons in atoms and molecules)
• they affect photographic film in the same way as visible light (turning it black)
• they are absorbed (stopped) by metal and bone.

X-Ray Production:

X-rays are produced due to sudden deceleration of fast-moving electrons when they collide and interact with the target anode. In this process of deceleration, more than 99% of the electron energy is converted into heat and less than 1% of energy is converted into x-rays.

X-rays are produced when electrons strike a metal target. The electrons are liberated from the heated filament and accelerated by a high voltage towards the metal target. The X-rays are produced when the electrons collide with the atoms and nuclei of the metal target.

Applications of X-Rays:

1)X-rays are used in industrial, medical, pure science research and X-ray crystallography etc.

2)X-rays are used to detect defects in radio valves. 

3) X-rays are used to detect cracks in structures. 

4)X-rays are used to analyses the structures of alloys and other composite bodies by diffraction of X-rays.

5) They are also used to study are structure of materials like rubber, cellulose, plastic, fibres etc.

6) X-rays can destroy abnormal internal tissues. 

7)X-rays are used in analysis of crystal structure and structure of complex organic molecule. 

8)They are also used in determining the atomic number and identification of various chemical elements. 

9)X-rays are used to detect fractures and formation of stones in human body. 

10)They are also being used for tumor treatment and for this purpose hard X-rays are used. 

11) X-rays are also used in X-ray crystallography for Laue method, Rotating crystal method, Powder method, etc.

Colliods and their applications for dmlt and paramedical students

Colliods and crystalloids.

Colloidal: -
            A colloidal is a heterogeneous system in which one substance is dispersed (dispersed phase) as very fine particles in another substance called   dispersion medium.
Colloidal particles are larger than simple molecules but smaller enough to remains suspended .their range of diameter is between 1and 1000nm (10-9 to 10-6m).
Classification of collides: -
    
a) Lyophillic colloids: -
                             The word ‘lyophillic’ means liquid loving. Colloidal sols directly formed by mixing substances like gum, gelatine, starch, rubber etc. With a suitable liquid (dispersion medium) are called lyophillic sol. These sols are also called reversible sols.

b)Lyophobic Colloids: -
                                   These words ‘Lyophobic’ means liquid hating substance like metals their sulphides etc. When simply mixed with the dispersion medium do not form the colloidal sol. Their colloidal sols can be prepared by only special methods; such sols are called lyophobic sols. These sols are also called irreversible sols.
Preparation of colliods:

a)Electrical disintegration or Bredig’s Arc Method: -
this process involves dispersion well as condensation. Colloidal sol of metals such as gold silver etc can be prepared by this method. in this method electric arc is struck between electrodes of metal immersed in the dispersion medium the intense heat product vaporized the metal, which then condenses to form particles of colloidal size.

c) Peptization: -
                      it is defined as the “process of converting a precipitate into colloidal sol” by shaking it with dispersion medium in the presence of a small amount of electrolyte. The electrolyte used for this purpose is called peptizing agent.
During peptization: - the particulate absorbs the one of the ions of the electrolyte on its surface. This cause the development of +ve charge on precipitate, which ultimately break up into small particles of the size of a colloid.

Purification of colloidal Solution: - 
 The process used for reducing the amount of impurities to a requisite minimum is known as purification of colloidal solution.
it is carried out by following methods
(I) Dialysis: -
              It is a process of removing a dissolved substance from a colloidal solution by means of diffusion through a suitable membrane. Since, particles (ions or smaller molecular) in a true solution can pass through an animal membrane (bladder) or parchment paper or colloidal particles. The molecules and ions diffuse through membrane into the outer water and pure colloidal solution to left behind.

(II) Electro dialysis: -
                                          The process of dialysis is quite slow it can be made faster by applying an electric field electrodes are fitted in the compartment. The ions present in the colloidal solution migrate out to the oppositely charge to electrodes.


Properties of colloidal solutions:
(I)   Colligative Properties: -
The values of colligative properties (osmotic pressure, lowering in vapor pressure, depression in freezing point, elevation in boiling point) are of small order as compared to values shown by true solution at same concentration.
(II)  Colour: -
                           The colour of the colloidal solution depends on the wavelength of the light scatter by the dispersed particles. The wavelength of light further depends on the size and nature of the particles.
(III) Brownian Movement: -
                                                It may be defined as continuous zigzag movement of the colloidal particles in a colloidal solution is known as Brownian movement.

(Iv) Tyndall effect: -
                                        It is may be defending as the scattering of the light by the colloidal particles present in the colloidal solution.
Application of colloids: -
   colloids are widely used in the industrial sector.
Example:-
· Electro precipitation of smoke: -
                     The smoke, before is comes out from the chimney, is led through a chamber containing plates having a charged opposite to that carried by smoke particles. The particles on coming in contact with these plates lose their charge get precipitated, the particles thus settle down on the floor of the chamber. The precipitator is called Cottrell precipitator.

Purification drinking water: -
       alum is added to water (that contain impurities) to coagulate the suspended impurities make water fit for colloidal in nature.
Example: - Argyrol is silver sol is used as an eye lotion.


· Medicines :-
     Most of the medicines are colloidal in nature Ex:- Argirol is a silver sol used as an eye lotion.
