Radioactive Decay Activation Energy (Ea): The threshold energy that must be overcome to produce a chemical reaction Electromagnetic Radiation: Radiant energy that exhibits wavelike behavior and travels through space at the speed of light in a vacuum Radioisotope: a radioactive isotope Many nuclei are radioactive Radioactive: Refers to a nucleus that spontaneously decomposes to form a different nucleus Over 85% of all known nuclides are radioactive Nuclear Equation: an equation representing radioactive decay Types of Radioactive (Nuclear) Decay (The spontaneous decomposition of a nucleus to form a different nucleus): Alpha Decay Alpha () particle shoots out from nucleus equivalent to helium-4 Beta Decay Beta () particle shoots out from nucleus equivalent to an electron Gamma Decay

Dating With Radioactivity It is possible to measure numerical values for the age of Earth?s geologic activities - in billions and millions of years - by using radiometric dating. A. Reviewing Basic Atomic Structure An atom has a nucleus with protons (positive) and neutrons (proton+electron combined = neutral) orbited by electrons (negative charge). Atomic Number = number of protons in the nucleus; each element?s Atomic Number differs. Atoms of the same element have the same number of protons. 99.9% of an atom?s mass is in the nucleus - electrons have hardly any mass. By adding together the number of protons and neutrons, the atomic mass of an atom is obtained. The number of neutrons varies (called isotopes; have different atomic masses).

Chapter 13 * The N + 1 Rule If a signal is split by N equivalent protons, it is split into N + 1 peaks. Chapter 13 Chapter 13 * Equivalent protons do not split each other. Protons bonded to the same carbon will split each other if they are nonequivalent. Protons on adjacent carbons normally will split each other. Protons separated by four or more bonds will not split each other. Spin-spin Splitting Distance Chapter 13 Chapter 13 * Long-Range Coupling When the hydrogen atoms are four bonds or more apart, spin-?spin splitting is not normally observed. When it actually does occur it is called ?long-range coupling.? Chapter 13 * Splitting for Ethyl Groups

Chemistry Final Study Guide Chapter 1- Matter and Change Chemistry - is the study of the composition, structure, and properties of matter, the processes that matter undergoes, and the energy changes that accompany these processes. Chemical ? any substance with a definite composition. Mass ? measure of the amount of matter Matter ? anything that takes up space Atom ? the smallest unit of an element that maintains the chemical identity of that element Element - pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler, substances and is made of one type of atom Compound ? a substance that can be broken down into simple stable substances. Each compound is made from the atoms of two or more elements that are chemically bonded

Energy Calculation Problems Problem #1: A cubic block of uranium metal (specific heat = 0.117 J g?1 ?C?1) at 200.0 ?C is dropped into 1.00 L of deuterium oxide of "heavy water" (specific heat = 4.211 J g?1 ?C?1) at 25.5 ?C. The final temperature of the uranium and the deuterium oxide mixture is 28.5 ?C. Given the densities of uranium (19.05 g/cm3) and deuterium oxide (1.11 g/mL) what is the length of the side of the uranium cube? Problem #2: 175.0 g pure H2O was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter and chilled to 10.0 ?C. 9.80 g pure H2SO4 (also at 10.0 ?C) was added, stirred and the temperature rose to 19.8 ?C. (a) What mass increased in temperature? (b) What was ?t? (c) What was the chemical reaction? (d) What do we assume about the specific heat?
