PERIODS – Rows on the Periodic Table arranged
by atomic # horizontally.
Families /
Groups – Columns that have many similar properties and chemical characteristics and numbered 1-18.
Basic Organization of Elements on the Periodic Table
The states of matter of all of the elements is given for normal conditions, i.e. a temperature of 20°C / 68 F.

• Metals
*Luster (shininess)
*Good conductors of heat and electricity
*High density (heavy for their size)
*Ductile (most metals can be drawn out
into thin wires)
*Malleable (most metals can be hammered
into thin sheets)
Non-Metals
• No luster (dull appearance)
• Poor conductor of heat and electricity
• Brittle (breaks easily)
• Not ductile
• Not malleable
• Low density

Chemical symbols to
know!!
Chemical Formulas to KNOW
• Common molecules and their chemical formulas.
• ________ – Table salt / Sodium Chloride • _______ – Carbon Dioxide • _______ – Oxygen Gas • _______ – Water • ________ – Glucose • ________ – Nitrogen Gas
• Common table salt is the compound sodium chloride.
• Sodium chloride has one atom of sodium for each atom of chlorine.
• Sodium chloride as a chemical formula: NaCl
NaCl
Physical Changes
A change that
alters the form
or appearance
but not the
actual
substance. (ex.
sugar and
water mixed is
still “sugar
water”)
Physical Changes
- change in state of matter
- size
- shape
• Sublimation – Solid to a
gas…(skips the liquid stage).
Another type of
physical change….
Chemical
Changes
Chemical Changes
A change that produces a new
substance and can’t be changed
back by physical means.
- Evidence of:
*Color change
*Precipitate – a solid
formed from a solution
*Gas production
*Change in temperature
*Changes in properties***
• Ex. Wood that has changed into ashes and gases cannot be restored to its original form as a log.
Color • half-eaten apple
turns brown - a chemical change occurs when the apple is exposed to air.
• color of food changes as it is cooked - a chemical change occurs.
A sign of Chemical Change
is color change. • The green pigment that you see during the
summer is chlorophyll .
For Example:
In autumn, changes in temperature and rainfall amounts cause trees to stop producing chlorophyll. The chlorophyll already in the leaves undergoes a chemical change into colorless chemicals.
Odor • When eggs and other foods spoil -
chemical change that produces an odor..
C H E M I C A L C H A N G E S
Law of Conservation of Matter / Mass
• Matter can not be created or
destroyed, only its form can be
changed.
(Chemical equations have to be
balanced.)

Subscript – how many atoms.
Coefficient – number of molecules.
Chemistry Facts • Warm temperatures speed up a reaction.
• Colder temperatures slow a reaction down.
• Enzymes are found in the human body and act as a catalyst – speeds up chemical reactions.
• Exothermic – gives off energy. Temp. goes up.
• Endothermic – absorbs energy. Temp. goes down.
Intermission
• 1. NaCl is the formula for what common substance?
• 2. Where would you find the reactants of a chemical equation?
• 3. What are the products of respiration?
• 4. What is the symbol for carbon?
• 5. Why do chemical equations have to be balanced?
Intermission
• 1. Burning a match would be what type of change?
• 2. Peeling an orange would be what type of change?
• 3. The formation of gas would be a sign of a ___________ change.
• 4. A temperature change would be a sign of a _________ change.

Acids and Bases 0 to 6 7 8 to 14
• Acid Neutral Alkaline / Bases
Sour Taste
Bitter Taste
Reacts with some metals
Can be corrosive
Corrosive – eats away
Slippery feeling
Tomatoes, citrus fruits, vinegar
Water, blood, saliva Ammonia, Cleaners, Soap, Milk of Magnesia
Uses of Acids
• Vinegar, which is used in salad dressing, contains acetic acid.
• Lemons, limes, and oranges have a sour taste because they contain citric acid.
Uses of Acids • Your body needs
ascorbic acid, which is vitamin C.
• Sulfuric acid is used in the production of fertilizers, steel, paints, and plastics.
Uses of Bases • Weak bases are
used for medicines, etc.
• Stronger bases are found in soaps, ammonia, and many other cleaning products because they interact strongly with dirt and grease.
