2.1 Chemistry’s Building Block: The Atom
![Page 3: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Chemistry’s Building Block: The Atom
• The fundamental unit of matter is the atom.
![Page 4: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Protons, Neurons, and Electrons
• The three most important constituent parts of an atom are – protons – neutrons – electrons
![Page 5: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Protons, Neurons, and Electrons
• Protons and neutrons exist in the atom’s nucleus, while electrons move around the nucleus, at some distance from it.

Protons, Neurons, and Electrons
• Protons are positively charged.
• Electrons are negatively charged.
• Neutrons carry no charge.
![Page 8: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Element
• An element is any substance that cannot be reduced to any simpler set of constituent substances through chemical means.
• Each element is defined by the number of protons in its nucleus.
![Page 9: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Element
• The number of neutrons in an atom can vary independently of the number of protons.
• Thus, a single element can exist in various forms, called isotopes, depending on the number of neutrons it possesses.

2.2 Matter is Transformed Through Chemical Bonding
![Page 14: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Matter is Transformed Through Chemical Bonding
• Atoms can link to one another in the process of chemical bonding.
![Page 15: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Covalent Bond
• Covalent bond: atoms share one or more electrons
• Ionic bond: atoms lose and accept electrons from each other
![Page 16: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Covalent Bond
• Chemical bonding comes about as atoms “seek” their lowest energy state.
• An atom achieves this state when it has a filled outer electron shell.
![Page 17: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Covalent Bond
• Hydrogen and helium require two electrons in orbit around their nuclei to have filledouter shells.
• Most other elements require eight electrons to have filled outer shells.
![Page 18: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Covalent Bond
• A molecule is a compound of a defined number of atoms in a defined spatial relationship.
• For example, two hydrogen atoms can link with one oxygen atom to form one water molecule.
![Page 20: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Covalent Bond
• Atoms of different elements differ in their power to attract electrons.
• The term for measuring this power is electronegativity.
![Page 22: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Polar and Nonpolar Bonding
• Through electronegativity, a molecule can take on a polarity—a difference in electrical charge at one end compared to the other.
![Page 23: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Polar and Nonpolar Bonding
• Covalent chemical bonds can be polar or nonpolar.
• A polar covalent bond exists when shared electrons are not shared equally among atoms in a molecule, due to electronegativity differences.
![Page 24: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Ionic Bonding
• Two atoms will undergo a process of ionization when the electronegativity differences between them are great enough that one atom loses one or more electrons to the other.
• This process creates ions: atoms whose number of electrons differs from their number of protons.
![Page 26: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Ionic Bonding
• The charge differences that result from ionization can produce an electrostatic attraction between ions.
• This attraction is an ionic bond.
• When atoms of two or more elements bond together ionically, the result is an ionic compound.
![Page 27: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

(a) Initial instabilitySodium has buta single electronin its outer shell,while chlorine has seven, meaningit lacks only a single electron to have acompleted outer shell.
(b) Electron transferWhen these twoatoms cometogether, sodiumloses its third-shellelectron to chlorine,in the processbecoming a sodiumion with a netpositive charge(because it now hasmore protons thanelectrons). Havinggained an electron,the chlorine atombecomes a chlorideion, with a netnegative charge(because it hasmore electronsthan protons).
(c) Ionic attractionThe sodium and chlorideions are now attracted toeach other because theyare oppositely charged.
(d) Compound formationThe result of this electrostaticattraction, involving manysodium and chloride ions, is asodium chloride crystal (NaCl),better known as table salt.

Hydrogen Bonding
• Hydrogen bonding links an already covalently bonded hydrogen atom with an electronegative atom.
![Page 29: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Hydrogen Bonding
• In water, a hydrogen atom of one water molecule will form a hydrogen bond with an unshared oxygen electron of a neighboring water molecule.

2.4 Water and Life
![Page 37: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Water and Life
• Water has several qualities that have strongly affected life on Earth.
![Page 38: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Water is a Major Player in Many of Life’s Processes
• A solution is a homogeneous mixture of two or more kinds of molecules, atoms, or ions.
• The compound dissolved in solution is the solute; the compound doing the dissolving is the solvent.
![Page 39: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

Water is a Major Player in Many of Life’s Processes
• Water is a powerful solvent, with the ability to dissolve more compounds in greater amounts than any other liquid.
![Page 41: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Water’s Structure Gives It Many Unusual Properties
• Because water’s solid form (ice) is less dense than its liquid form, bodies of water in colder climates do not freeze solid in winter.
• Allows life to flourish under the ice.
![Page 42: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Water’s Structure Gives It Many Unusual Properties
• Water has a great capacity to absorb and retain heat.
• Because of this, the oceans act as heat buffers for the Earth, thus stabilizing Earth’s temperature.
![Page 44: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Water’s Structure Gives It Many Unusual Properties
• Water has a high degree of cohesion, which allows water to be drawn up through plants, via evaporation, in one continuous column, from roots through leaves.
![Page 45: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic
• Some compounds do not interact with water.
• Hydrocarbons such as petroleum are examples of such hydrophobic compounds.
• Water cannot break down hydrophobic compounds, which is why oil and water don’t mix.
![Page 46: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

2.5 Acids and Bases Are Important to Life
![Page 49: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Acids and Bases Are Important to Life
• An acid is any substance that yields hydrogen ions when put in aqueous solution.
• A base is any substance that accepts hydrogen ions in solution.
![Page 50: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Acids and Bases
• A base added to an acidic solution makes that solution less acidic.
• An acid added to a basic solution makes that solution less basic.
![Page 51: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

Acids and Bases
• The concentration of hydrogen ions that a given solution has determines how basic or acidic that solution is.
• The pH scale measures acidity. – This scale runs from 0 to 14, with 0 most
acidic,14 the most basic, and 7 neutral.
![Page 53: Fundamental Building Blocks: Chemistry, Water, and pH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d895503460f94a6eab8/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
