Particulate Model of Matter:
All matter is made of tiny, invisible particles like atoms and it’s always constant
the smallest particle of a single element.
Atom
composed of two or more atoms chemically combined.
Molecule
It has a definite shape and a definite volume.
Particles are very close together and vibrate in fixed positions.
Strong attractive forces between particles.
Solid
Has indefinite shape (takes the shape of its container).
Has definite volume.
Particles are close together but can slide past each other.
Liquid
It has an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume.
Particles are very far apart and move freely and rapidly.
Large spaces between particles make gases easily compressible
Gas
the space occupied by a gas.
SI unit: cubic meter (m³).
Volume (V)
– the force exerted by gas particles on the walls of the container.
SI unit: Pascal (Pa).
Pressure (P)
the number of gas particles present.
SI unit: moles (mol).
Amount of Substance (n)
the measure of the average kinetic energy of gas particles.
SI unit: Kelvin (K).
Temperature (T)
The inverse relationship between the volume and pressure
and amount of gas and temp is constant
Boyle’s Law
Who discovered boyle law
Robert Boyle.
Boyle’s Law Formula
P1V1 = P2v2
p= pressure
v=volume
the volume is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.
volume and amount of gas is held constant
Charles’ Law
Charles’ Law Formula
V1T2=T1V2
Absolute Temperature (Kelvin)
Celsius is negative at low temperatures.
Negative temperatures don’t exist in real particle motion.
Kelvin is the only temperature scale that starts at absolute 0, the point where particle motion theoretically stops.
0 K = no thermal energy
Standard Temperature is 0°C
To convert Celsius to Kelvin
simply add 273.15 to the Celsius temperature
To convert Kelvin to Celsius
subtract 273.15 from the Kelvin temperature
It is the direct relationship between pressure and temperature
held at constant Volume

also known as ‘Organic Molecules’, these are the carbon-based building blocks of life. They are essential for living organisms and life processes.
Biomolecules
The Major Biomolecules:
Carbohydrates
Lipids
Nucleic Acid
Protein
The “Primary Elements of Life”
Oxygen: (65%)
Carbon: (18%)
Hydrogen: (9.5%)
most abundant biomolecule on Earth; it is the “Sugar Molecules” or the source of energy that powers your cells.
