Introduction to Chemistry
What is Chemistry?
• Study of matter composition, properties, & changes
• Applied chemistry attain goals
• Pure chemistry gather knowledge for knowledge’s sake
Why study Chemistry• Explain the natural world
– Why?
• Prepare for a career– Directly- in a lab– Indirectly- problem solving and thinking skills
• Be an informed citizen– Vote– Don’t get scammed
1.3 Alchemy
• Forerunner of chemistry
• Mystical- search for perfection
• Practical- developed glassware and techniques used today
• Tried to change elements
• Faulty assumptions and lack of logic led them astray
Scientific Method
• A way of solving problems or answering questions.
• Starts with observation- noting and recording facts
• Hypothesis- possible explanation of a set of observation– based on research – and previous knowledge
Scientific Method
• Experiment- designed to test the hypothesis
• only two possible answers– hypothesis is right– hypothesis is wrong
• Generates data -observations from experiments.
• Modify hypothesis - repeat the cycle
Scientific Method

Variables
• Controlled experiment- one thing is changed.
• Manipulated variable- What you change or control directly – Also called independent variable
• Responding variable – What changes as a result. No direct control– Also called dependent variable

Observations
Hypothesis
Experiment
• Cycle repeats many times.• By you and by others• The hypothesis gets more
and more certain.• Becomes a theory• A thoroughly tested model
that explains why things behave a certain way.
• Theory can never be proven.
• The best explanation
• Useful because it predicts behavior
• Helps us form mental pictures of processes (models)
Observations
Hypothesis
Experiment
• Another outcome is that certain behavior is repeated many times
• Scientific Law is developed
• Description of how things behave
• Usually an equation
• Law - how
• Theory- why

Communication• Use Journals– Do research
– Write article
• Describe procedures, methods, and findings
– Submit for peer review
• Sent back for editing– Publish
• Letters to editor respond.
Collaboration
• Working together
• Teams– Different skills – Different specialties
• Internet and Email
• Conferences
Chemistry Warm Up1. How does a hypothesis become a theory?2. Are theories ever wrong?3. If a scientist subscribes to a hypothesis, butperforms an experiment that disproves the hypothesiswhat should he or she do?4. Explain the role of collaboration and communication in the scientific
method.5. What is
a. manipulated variable?b. responding variable?c. controlled variable?
Grading for this warm up:I didn’t understand, so I put my name and the date on the paper, and wrote down the questions – 1 pointI wrote complete and correct answers to at least half of the questions – 2 more points (total of 3 points)I wrote complete and correct answers to all of the questions 2 more points (total of 5 points)
When you finish, read and take notes 1.4 and andswer 26 and 27 in that chapter.
Problem Solving
• Only way to get good is to practice• Two parts
– Developing Plan-
• Hard part• Higher level thinking
– Implementing Plan-
• Not so hard• Application level
Solving Numeric Problems
• Three steps-1. Analyze
• Known– Numbers– Measurements– Equations
• Unknown– What are you looking for?– What units?
Solving Numeric Problems
• Three steps-1. Analyze
• Plan– The heart of problem solving– Diagram– Look info

• Rearrange
• Appendix C
Solving Numeric Problems
• Three steps-1. Analyze2. Calculate3. Evaluate
• Reasonable?• Read the question, did you answer it?• Check your work• Estimate
Practice
• What is the length, in centimeters, of a 10.0-inch ruler, given that there are 2.54 centimeters per inch?
Practice
• A certain ball when dropped from any height, bounces one-half the original height. If the ball was dropped from a height of 60 in. and allowed to bounce freely, what is the total distance the ball has traveled when it hits the ground for the third time? Assume the ball bounces straight up and down.
Conceptual Problems
• Without numbers or math
• Two steps1. Analyze
• Identify known and unknown
• Plan2. Solve
Practice• You find a sealed box
with strings protruding from three holes, as shown in the diagram. When you tug string A, it becomes longer and string C becomes shorter. When you tug string B, it becomes longer, but strings A and C are not affected. Make a diagram showing the arrangement of the strings inside the box.
