2. MATTER - Matter is physically everything that exists that we can touch and feel. Matter consists of atoms.  

Read an introduction to ATOMS here.  

Here is a comparison of solids, liquids and gasses CLICK HERE.  All matter can be classified as being either a pure substance or a mixture.  Matter can exist as either a solid, liquid, or a gas and can change among these three states of matter.  Mixtures can be heterogeneous (made up of two or more physically different parts or states of matter) or homogeneous (consisting of components that cannot be individually detected.)  Homogenous mixtures are usually called solutions.  In a two-component system, the major component is called the solvent and the minor component is called the solute.  Aqueous solutions have water as the solvent.  If the components of a solution can be mixed in any proportion, they are said to be miscible.  A colloid is a mixture in which the particles of the lesser phase are intermediate in size between those present in the homogeneous mixtures and those in heterogeneous mixtures; typically they are on the order of 10 to 10,000 angstroms in diameter.

GASES  See special article from Scott Specialty Gases

Description: The Scott Specialty Gases website is a valuable resource for technical and safety chemical information including an online MSDS Library, comprehensive downloadable Design and Safety handbook, chemical innovations, specialty gases, chemical safety tips, and compliance documentation.  Scott Specialty Gases http://www.scottgas.com/

Famous scientist quote:
"All men deal with matter in the gross and our bodies are constructed of it.  Mysteries of matter, therefore, have a fascination for thoughtful laymen as well as scientists and technologists.  The atom has long been familiar as the ultimate unit of matter".  Lord Ernest Rutherford (18771 - 1937)

3.  ELEMENTS - There are four major parts to learning chemistry basics. - - Elements, Laws and Theories, Combinations of Elements, and Applied Chemistry - learn about them and what the words mean to know the inner mysteries of chemistry.  Learn about each elements physical characteristics and atomic structure by periodic chart of elements and each elements associated physical characteristics.  

At first concentrate on the more common elements of hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, sodium, potassium, sulfur, and a few metals like copper, zinc, silver, mercury, and lead.   Later you can study the rest of the elements.

BASIC CHEMISTRY

Atomic theory is basic to Chemistry. The theory states that all matter is composed of a set of very small units called atoms. One of the very first laws to be discovered leading to the establishment of Chemistry as a science is the Law of Conservation of Matter. The law states there is no detectable change in the quantity of matter during an ordinary chemical reaction. (Modern Physics now teaches that atoms and energy can be neither created nor destroyed.) On a superficial level this means that if we start off with 10,001 atoms and proceed with many chemical reactions, we will be left with 10,001 atoms. Even if we started off with something green and gooey and ended up with something black and hard there will still be the same number of atoms. The mass will be the same too if the energy gained or lost is accounted for. Chemistry studies the interactions of these atoms, sometimes alone but more often combined with (bonded to) other atoms to form ions and molecules. These atoms interact with other atoms (e.g. a wood fire is the combination of oxygen atoms from the air with the carbon and hydrogen atoms in the wood) and they also interact with light (a photograph is formed from the changes that light causes to the chemicals on a film) and other types of radiation. One surprisingly early finding was that these atoms almost always combine in definite ratios or proportions: silica sand is a structure where the ratio of silicon atoms to oxygen atoms is 2:1. We now know that there are exceptions to this Law of Definite Proportions (integrated circuits are a good example). Another key discovery in chemistry was that when a change is made, the amount of energy gained or lost will always be the same. This leads to the important concepts of equilibrium, thermodynamics, and kinetics. The most interesting theory describing all of chemistry is Quantum Mechanics. This theory is complex, non-intuitive, and difficult to master. Often, simpler concepts are used to predict the results of experiments. These concepts (e.g. acid/base chemistry) are limited in scope, but much easier to understand and apply. College students typically study chemistry in the following "blocks": Analytical Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Polymer Chemistry and Biochemistry. Often, discoveries in chemistry are made by physicists, biologists, chemical engineers or pharmacists.
