CHEM study set

Learning Objectives for Unit 1: 1. Define and/or recognize an acceptable definition or example of the terms listed in the "Summary and Key Terms" section at the end of each assigned chapter. When a partial chapter is assigned, you are only responsible for the terms in the assigned sections of that chapter. 2. Given the name of a chemical element, you will be able to supply its symbol; given the symbol of a chemical element, you will be able to write its name. You will be responsible for the following elements: Element Symbol Element Symbol aluminum Al lead Pb antimony Sb lithium Li arsenic As magnesium Mg barium Ba manganese Mn bismuth Bi mercury Hg boron B molybdenum Mo bromine Br neon Ne cadmium Cd nickel Ni calcium Ca nitrogen N carbon C oxygen O cesium Cs phosphorus P chlorine Cl platinum Pt chromium Cr potassium K cobalt Co radon Rn copper Cu silicon Si fluorine F silver Ag gold Au sodium Na helium He sulfur S OCCC – CHEM 1115 Syllabus – Spring 2025 – 5 Units Element Symbol Element hydrogen iodine iron 3. Symbol H I Fe tin uranium zinc Sn U Zn For any of the following quantities: length; mass; time; temperature; or amount of substance, you will be able to list the base (fundamental) unit and its symbol in the International System of Units (the "SI" system). 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Given the value of a temperature in either °F, °C, or K and given the conversion equations, you will be able to convert the given value to either of the other two temperature scales. Given two of the three variables - mass, volume, and density, be able to calculate the third variable. Given a number expressed as a decimal or in exponential (scientific) notation, you will be able to indicate how many significant figures are present in that number. Given an indicated calculation involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and/or division, you will be able to perform the calculation correctly and express the answer to the proper number of significant figures. Given a number in decimal notation, you will be able to write it in proper exponential (scientific) notation. Given a number in exponential (scientific) notation, you will be able to write it in decimal notation. Given a measured value, including its units, you will be able to convert the given value to a new specified unit using dimensional analysis. You will be able to state or use the metric-metric conversions for mega, kilo, centi, milli, micro, and nano. You will be able to state or use the relationship between milliliters and cubic centimeters. Using information given in a problem, you will be able to write an appropriate conversion factor and use the conversion factor (with or without other conversion factors) to solve a problem using dimensional analysis. 10. Given the periodic table, you will be able to do the following: a. classify a given element as being a metal, nonmetal, or metalloid; b. classify a given element as being an alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, halogen, or noble gas; c. classify a given element as being a main group (representative) element, transition metal, lanthanide, or actinide; d. name two elements which are liquids at "room conditions" of temperature and pressure; 10 e. list by name and formula the elements that occur naturally as diatomic molecules. OCCC – CHEM 1115 Syllabus – Spring 2025 – 5 Units 11. Given a list of physical properties, you will be able to indicate which are characteristic properties of metallic elements and which are characteristic properties of nonmetallic elements. 12. Given a list of chemical properties, you will be able to indicate which are properties of metals and which are properties of nonmetals. 13. Given some combination of the number of protons, the number of neutrons, the number of electrons, the isotopic mass, and the complete isotopic symbol (or nuclear notation) for some isotope, you will be able to supply the missing component(s) of the above list for that isotope. 14. Given the appropriate equations and constants, and given the value of one of the three characteristics of a photon (its wavelength, frequency, or energy), you will be able to calculate the values of the remaining two characteristics. Given the energy of a covalent bond, you will be able to calculate the wavelength, frequency, or energy of a photon needed to break that bond. 15. You will be able to recognize statements about the quantum mechanical model of the atom. You will be able to recognize definitions of the four quantum numbers used in the quantum mechanical model of the atom. You will also be able to recognize allowed sets of quantum numbers. 16. Given the atomic number of any representative element or first-row transition element, you will be able to represent the electron configuration in complete form, in standard shorthand or "core" notation, or as an orbital diagram (either vertical or horizontal). 17. You will be able to state or recognize statements describing the Pauli Exclusion Principle, Hund's Rule, and the aufbau principle, and to use these principles in building or evaluating electronic configurations or orbital energy diagrams.
