Poems for Chem

My New Nanny Friend

Mom and dad held a job interview
I must know “Who will be my new nanny?”
My former nannies’ ended in a skew
The last one left us, shielding her fanny

I always wondered why they left in a hurry
As I brought out my inventions from my toy chest
Rubber band shooter, amputator, ball burry
Despite that Mom told them my best asset was my zest (Maybe that’s why the kept coming)

I love target practice with my nanny
But she had reflexes of a granny (You’re too slow for me Nanny Mc Granny)
I had the right ammo, calculations
Speed, power, accuracy and patience…(Writing down results of target practice)

“Oh, Danny! Your new nanny’s here!” chirped Louise (mom)
“I’ll turn you into a man of science” (What’s this lady going to do to me?)
That was the line her lips danced to, Science
Chemistry, she’s now the Mac’ to my Cheese (She’s a ninja/scientist/college student at UP)

What Science is to Me

Science, a tool invented by man
Cocoa beans, hot cocoa, chocolate
Brings more meaning to my everyday
Wheat, grain, flour, dough, pasta, spaghetti

Hey look, those guys have some chemistry
Bloo Berry; Bloo Cheese; Moe, Larry & Shemp
A combination so new, Darlin’
Mary Kate & Ashley; Chip & Dale; Drake & Josh

Time saver, life saver, our solution
Alarm clock, seatbelt, Biogesic
Science takes me to my destination
Car, boat, airplane, jet, helicopter

New fields of study born to the world
Architecture, Medicine, Physics
Pass it on to your mates, be a friend
Making science work for you today

Chemistry 1st Qtr July 23-24

HOW ELECTRONS BEHAVE >:D

Nature of light

Christian Huygen (1629-1695)
-stated that light, like sound, is a wave motion

***

His idea met many opposite

***

> Sir Isaac Newton (1647-1727)
- one of the GIANTS in science who opposed the idea [lyt doz nut trabel n wabe mosyon >:( ]
- formulated his own particle theory of light

Isaac's Theory of Light :3
Light is a very small particle which travels in straight lines.
(Newtonian Theory of the Nature of Light)

> Maxwell (1864)
- predicted that an alternating current in a circuit would radiate energy in the form of ELECTROMAGNETIC waves travelling through vacuum at the speed of light

> Heinrich Hertz
- did a demo thru an experiment 'the electromagnetic nature of light' to confirm Maxwell's interpretation

Classical Idea:
I. light is a WAVE

nature of light

II. Quantum Nature of Light

Max Planck (1858-1947)
- radiation energy is not continuous
- occurs in PACKETS or PIECES

PACKETS - Quanta
PIECES - Quanta

Quanta Hypothesis:
- thought light was a particle

Photon - quantum of electromagnetic radiation

( the higher the energy the shorter the wave :D)

Albert Einstein
- applied the photon model of light to explain the PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT
- won the Nobel Prize for PHYSICS

DUALISM in Nature
behaviour of Light
1. Wave
2. Particle
each can explain one set of phenomena but is in compatible w/ the other set.

Louis de Broglie (1892-1987)
- proposed a dualistic nature of light to explain its behaviour
- to there is a relationship between frequency & energy of photons w/ the wave nature of radiations
- correlate the motion of each particle to a certain wave characterizes its wave properties
- won him a Nobel Prize

BOHR
- combined Rutherford's nuclear atom, Planck's quantum nature, Maxwell's wave model & Newton's Lay of motion
- formed 4 postulates

Postulates:
1. A hydrogen atom consists of a nucleus containing a proton & an electron
2. Only certain orbits are permitted
3. Energy of the e- in a given orbit is fined. As long as the electron stays in that orbit, it neither absorbs nor radiates energy. (stationary state/ground)
4. Electron may move from one stationary state to another (excited state x 3) to do so, it must absorb or emit a quantity of energy

Energy Levels in an Atom
Bohr proposed the energy levels based from the idea of Bohr who proposed that the movement of e- is analogous to the planets orbiting around the sun.
- orbits-> energy level

MAIN ENERGY LEVEL/SHELL
-> the orbits where the e-'s are located
n= 1,2,3,4,etc...
-> compared to a building, the nucleus being the basement and the high levels are the different shells :D
-> each level being greater than the previous

SUBSHELL/SUBLEVEL (s,p,d,f)
-> although a number of e-s may be found in the same main energy level, they may be found in different sublevels

Main Energy Level 1 is found in Subshell type 1s
MEL = 2 : ST = 2s,2p
MEL = 3 : ST = 3s, 3p, 3d
MEL = 4 : ST = 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f

ENERGY LEVELS IN AN ATOM
# of sublevels = assigned nos. for the main energy level


ORBITALS
-> region around the nucleus in which e-s will most likely be found
- rooms for electrons
- 1 orbital can only accommodate a max. number of 2 electrons

max. # of e-'s that can = 2n^2
occupy a level/shell
h=main energy level

How many electrons can occupy the 9th Main energy level?
2n^2 = 2(9)^2 = 2(81) = 162 electrons can occupy the 9th Main energy level
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

PICTURING THE ELECTRON
- ground state configuration
(How electrons arrange/themselves in atoms)

WAY TO DESCRIBE THE ELECTRON DISTRIBUTION :D
1. Orbital Energy Diagram (OED)
2. Orbital Diagram Notation (ODN)
3. Electron Configuration (EC)
4. Nobel Gas Abbreviation
5. Shell Configuration

~~~~~****~~~~~
1. OED
-uses boxes and arrows and breaks down each subshell into individual ORBITALS and ENERGY

3 PRINCIPLES in filling up the ORBITALS

* Aufbau Principle*
- electrons are added one at a time starting at the orbital w/ the LOWEST energy (1s)

*Pauli's Exclusion Principle
- an orbital can hold a maximum of 2 electrons...

The up arrow represents the direction: clockwise; the down arrow is counter clockwise.

*Hund's Rule of Multiplicity
- electrons entering a sublevel containing more than one orbital will be spread out with their spins in the SAME direction so that electrons are distributed singly before they are paired.

Practice :)
show the orbital energy of diagram of F(z=9)

~~~~~****~~~~~
2. ODN
- uses boxes & arrows and breaks down each subshell into ORBITALS
- similar to OED except that the direction of increasing energy is from left to right

ex.
show the orbital diagram of NA (z=11)

Practice
He (z=2)

P(z=15)

O(z=8)

Cl(z=17)

N (z=7)

F(z=9)

S(z=16)

Rb(z=37)

~~~~~****~~~~~
3. EC
- uses letters and nos. & denotes only the TOTAL nos. of electrons in each subshell

2p^3

2 - principle energy level
p - represents the sublevel
3 - total nos. of electrons in sublevel

ex. Write the electron configuration of Na (z=11)
White the full EC of each of the ff:
He(z=2)

S(z=16)

P(z=15)

N(z=7)

O(z=8)

Cl(z=17)

~~~~~****~~~~~

Cr (z=24)
1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2 3d^4

4s^2 -> 4s^1
3d^4 -> 3d^5

Cu (z=29)
1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2 3d^9

4s^2 -> 4s^1
3d^9 -> 3d^10

REASON
STABILITY:
Filled Orbital > Half-filled Orbital > Partially filled Orbital

Types of Electrons
1. Valence electrons (v.e.)
- e-'s in the outermost principal energy level/shell
- ones involved in the chemical reactions

2. CORe elctrons (c. e.)
- e-'s that don't participate in chemical reactions

Noble Gas Abbreviation
- shortcut way of writing....

Physical Education III July 14, 2008 1st Qtr

BASIC RULES OF VOLLEYBALL
1) All games should be played in two out three sets or three out of five sets
2) There are six active players inside the court
3) The team may decided to have/enlist a libero in their entry form the Libero should have uniform different from the players

A. The LIBERO is restricted to perform as a backplayer (1,6,5) and has no right at all to complete an attack hit when the ball is above the height of the top of the net

4) Rally point scoring system - when one receiving team winning a rally scores a point when the receiving team wins a rally, the team has the right to serve and its players rotate one position clockwise.
5) Playing formula - a set (except the deciding 5th set) is won by the team which first scored 25 points with a minimum lead of 2 points. In the case of a 24-24 tie, play is continued until a 2 point lead is achieved. The 5th set is still played to 15 points.
6) During set 1-4, there are 2 'technical-timeouts' per set, each lasting 90 seconds. They are applied automatically when the leading team first reaches 8 points and 16 points.
7) The server must hit the ball within 8 seconds after the 1st referee whistles.
8) For misconduct behavior - the opponent scored 1 point and takes the right to serve

Yellow card - warning
Red card - expulsion
Yellow & Red cards - disqualification

9) A team is allowed to hit the ball three (3) times only and a player is not allowed to hit the ball twice consecutively

OFFICIALS of the GAME
1) First Referee (standing on a referee's stand)
> has authority over all officials
> directs the match from the start until the end
> His decisions are final
> performs the coin toss with team captains
> has the right to sanction misconducts & delays

2) Second Referee/Umpire (Standing at the post on the opposite side and facing the 1st referee)
> should the 1st referee unable to continue his work, he may replace him
> he controls the number of time-out & substitutions
> He takes charge of the penetration into the opponent's court under the net (crossing the centerline)

3) Scorer (seated on the scorer's table)
> He keeps the official score sheet and cooperates with 2nd referee
> He records the numbers and names of the players, score, time-outs, substitutions, sanctions, warnings, & penalties

4) Linesmen (they stand at the corners of the court from the service area)
> they control the endlines and the sidelines
> they signal the ball 'IN' and 'OUT'

BASIC SKILLS
> overhead
> underhead serve
> forearm serve
> set
> jump set
> dig pass
> spike
> block
