1[blank_start]Atoms[blank_end] and [blank_start]elements[blank_end] are the building blocks of chemistry. [blank_start]Atoms[blank_end] contain [blank_start]protons[blank_end], [blank_start]neutrons[blank_end] and [blank_start]electrons[blank_end]. When [blank_start]elements[blank_end] react they produce compounds.

2All [blank_start]substances[blank_end] are made of [blank_start]atoms[blank_end]. A [blank_start]substance[blank_end] that is made of only one sort of [blank_start]atom[blank_end] is called an [blank_start]element[blank_end]. There are about 100 different [blank_start]elements[blank_end]. [blank_start]Elements[blank_end] are shown in the [blank_start]periodic[blank_end] table. The [blank_start]groups[blank_end] contain elements with [blank_start]similar[blank_end] [blank_start]properties[blank_end].

3Atoms of each element are [blank_start]represented[blank_end] by a chemical symbol, e.g. [blank_start]O[blank_end] represents an atom of oxygen and Na represents an atom of [blank_start]sodium[blank_end]
- Arepresented
- BO
- Csodium
4Atoms have a small [blank_start]central[blank_end] [blank_start]nucleus[blank_end], which is made up of [blank_start]protons[blank_end] and [blank_start]neutrons[blank_end] and around which there are [blank_start]electrons[blank_end].

5The relative [blank_start]electrical[blank_end] charges are:
Proton = [blank_start]+1[blank_end]
Neutron = [blank_start]0[blank_end]
Electron = [blank_start]-1[blank_end]- Aelectrical
- B+1
- C0
- D-1
6In an atom, the number of [blank_start]electrons[blank_end] is equal to the number of [blank_start]protons[blank_end] in the [blank_start]nucleus[blank_end]. Atoms have no overall [blank_start]electrical[blank_end] [blank_start]charge[blank_end].

8Electrons occupy particular [blank_start]energy[blank_end] [blank_start]levels[blank_end]. Each [blank_start]electron[blank_end] in an atom is at a particular energy level (in a particular [blank_start]shell[blank_end]). The electrons in an atom occupy the lowest available [blank_start]shell[blank_end].

10The elements in Group [blank_start]0[blank_end] of the periodic table are called the [blank_start]noble[blank_end] [blank_start]gases[blank_end]. They are [blank_start]unreactive[blank_end] because their atoms have [blank_start]stable[blank_end] [blank_start]arrangements[blank_end] of electrons. Noble gases have [blank_start]eight[blank_end] electrons in their [blank_start]outer energy level[blank_end], except for [blank_start]helium[blank_end] which only has two electrons.

11When elements react, their atoms join with other atoms to form [blank_start]compounds[blank_end]. This involves [blank_start]giving[blank_end], [blank_start]taking[blank_end] or [blank_start]sharing[blank_end] electrons to form [blank_start]ions[blank_end] or [blank_start]molecules[blank_end]. Compounds formed from metals and non-metals consist of [blank_start]ions[blank_end]. Compounds formed from non-metals consist of [blank_start]molecules[blank_end]. In molecules the atoms are held together by [blank_start]covalent[blank_end] [blank_start]bonds[blank_end].

27Metals are very useful in our everyday lives. Ores are naturally occurring [blank_start]rocks[blank_end] that provide an [blank_start]economic[blank_end] starting point for the [blank_start]manufacture[blank_end] of metals. Iron ore is used to make [blank_start]iron[blank_end] and [blank_start]steel[blank_end]. Copper can be easily [blank_start]extracted[blank_end] but copper-rich ores are becoming scarce so new methods of [blank_start]extracting[blank_end] copper are being developed. [blank_start]Aluminium[blank_end] and [blank_start]titanium[blank_end] are useful metals but are expensive to produce. Metals can be mixed together to make [blank_start]alloys[blank_end].

30Unreactive metals such as gold are found in the Earth as the metal itself but most metals are found as [blank_start]compounds[blank_end] that require [blank_start]chemical[blank_end] [blank_start]reactions[blank_end] to [blank_start]extract[blank_end] the metal.
- Acompounds
- Bchemical

31Metals that are [blank_start]less[blank_end] reactive than carbon can be extracted from their oxides by [blank_start]reduction[blank_end] with carbon, for example iron oxide is reduced in the [blank_start]blast[blank_end] [blank_start]furnace[blank_end] to make iron.
- Aless
- Breduction
- Cblast
- Dfurnace
32Metals that are [blank_start]more[blank_end] reactive than [blank_start]carbon[blank_end], such as [blank_start]aluminium[blank_end], are extracted by [blank_start]electrolysis[blank_end] of molten compounds. The use of [blank_start]large[blank_end] amounts of energy in the [blank_start]extraction[blank_end] of these metals makes them [blank_start]expensive[blank_end].

33Copper can be extracted from copper-rich ores by heating the ores in a furnace ([blank_start]smelting[blank_end]). The copper can be purified by [blank_start]electrolysis[blank_end]. The supply of copper-rich ores is limited. Copper-rich ores are being depleted and traditional mining and extraction have major [blank_start]environmental[blank_end] impacts.
- Asmelting
- Belectrolysis
- Cenvironmental
34New ways of [blank_start]extracting[blank_end] copper from low-grade ores are being researched to limit the [blank_start]environmental[blank_end] impact of traditional mining.
Copper can be extracted by [blank_start]phytomining[blank_end], or by [blank_start]bioleaching[blank_end]. [blank_start]Phytomining[blank_end] uses plants to [blank_start]absorb[blank_end] metal compounds and that the plants are [blank_start]burned[blank_end] to produce ash that contains the [blank_start]metal[blank_end] compounds. [blank_start]Bioleaching[blank_end] uses [blank_start]bacteria[blank_end] to produce [blank_start]leachate[blank_end] solutions that contain metal compounds.- Aextracting

39Most iron is converted into steels. Steels are [blank_start]alloys[blank_end] since they are mixtures of iron with [blank_start]carbon[blank_end]. Some steels contain other metals. [blank_start]Alloys[blank_end] can be designed to have properties for [blank_start]specific[blank_end] uses. [blank_start]Low[blank_end]-carbon steels are easily shaped, [blank_start]high[blank_end]-carbon steels are hard, and [blank_start]stainless[blank_end] steels are resistant to corrosion.

41The elements in the central block of the periodic table are known as [blank_start]transition[blank_end] metals. Like other metals they are good [blank_start]conductors[blank_end] of heat and electricity and can be [blank_start]bent[blank_end] or hammered into shape. They are useful as [blank_start]structural[blank_end] materials and for making things that must allow heat or electricity to pass through easily.

44Crude oil is derived from an ancient [blank_start]biomass[blank_end] found in [blank_start]rocks[blank_end]. Many useful materials can be produced from crude oil. Crude oil can be [blank_start]fractionally[blank_end] [blank_start]distilled[blank_end]. Some of the [blank_start]fractions[blank_end] can be used as [blank_start]fuels[blank_end]. [blank_start]Biofuels[blank_end] are produced from plant material. There are advantages and disadvantages to their use as fuels. Fuels can come from [blank_start]renewable[blank_end] or [blank_start]non[blank_end]-[blank_start]renewable[blank_end] resources.

45Crude oil is a mixture of a very large number of [blank_start]compounds[blank_end].
- Acompounds
46A mixture consists of two or more [blank_start]elements[blank_end] or [blank_start]compounds[blank_end] not chemically [blank_start]combined[blank_end] together. The chemical properties of each substance in the mixture are [blank_start]unchanged[blank_end]. It is possible to [blank_start]separate[blank_end] the substances in a mixture by physical methods including [blank_start]distillation[blank_end].

57Hydrocarbons can be cracked to produce smaller, more useful molecules. This process involves [blank_start]heating[blank_end] the hydrocarbons to [blank_start]vaporise[blank_end] them. The [blank_start]vapours[blank_end] are either passed over a hot [blank_start]catalyst[blank_end] or mixed with [blank_start]steam[blank_end] and heated to a [blank_start]very[blank_end] [blank_start]high[blank_end] [blank_start]temperature[blank_end] so that [blank_start]thermal[blank_end] [blank_start]decompositions[blank_end] reactions then occur.

63[blank_start]Polymers[blank_end] have many useful applications and new uses are being developed, for example: new packaging materials, waterproof coatings for fabrics, dental polymers, wound dressings, hydrogels, smart materials (including shape memory [blank_start]polymers[blank_end]).
- Apolymers
- BPolymers
64Many polymers are not [blank_start]biodegradable[blank_end], so they are not broken down by [blank_start]microbes[blank_end] and this can lead to problems with waste disposal.
- Abiodegradable

71Vegetable oils have [blank_start]higher[blank_end] [blank_start]boiling[blank_end] [blank_start]points[blank_end] than water and so can be used to [blank_start]food[blank_end] foods at [blank_start]higher[blank_end] [blank_start]temperatures[blank_end] than by [blank_start]boiling[blank_end], This produces quicker cooking and different flavours but increases the energy that the food [blank_start]releases[blank_end] when it is eaten.

72Oils do not [blank_start]dissolve[blank_end] in water. They can be used to produce [blank_start]emulsions[blank_end]. [blank_start]Emulsions[blank_end] are thicker than oil or water and have many uses that depend on their special [blank_start]properties[blank_end]. They provide better texture, coating ability and appearance, for example in salad dressings, ice creams, cosmetics and paints. [blank_start]Emulsifiers[blank_end] have [blank_start]hydrophilic[blank_end] and [blank_start]hydrophobic[blank_end] properties.

73Vegetable oils that are [blank_start]unsaturated[blank_end] contain [blank_start]double[blank_end] [blank_start]carbon[blank_end]-[blank_start]carbon[blank_end] bonds. These can be detected by reacting with [blank_start]bromine[blank_end] water.

74Vegetable oils that are unsaturated can be [blank_start]hardened[blank_end] by reacting them with [blank_start]hydrogen[blank_end] in the presence of a [blank_start]nickel[blank_end] [blank_start]catalyst[blank_end] at about [blank_start]60[blank_end] degrees C. [blank_start]Hydrogen[blank_end] adds to the [blank_start]carbon[blank_end]-[blank_start]carbon[blank_end] [blank_start]double[blank_end] [blank_start]bonds[blank_end]. The [blank_start]hydrogenated[blank_end] oils have higher melting points so they are solids at room temperature, making them useful as spreads and in cakes and pastries.

75The Earth and its atmosphere provide everything we need. The Earth has a [blank_start]layered[blank_end] [blank_start]structure[blank_end]. The surface of the Earth and its atmosphere has [blank_start]changed[blank_end] since the Earth was formed and is still [blank_start]changing[blank_end]. The atmosphere has been much the same for the last 200 million years and provides the conditions needed for [blank_start]life[blank_end] on Earth. Recently human activities have resulted in further [blank_start]changes[blank_end] in the atmosphere. There is more than one [blank_start]theory[blank_end] about how life was formed.

76The Earth consists of a [blank_start]core[blank_end], [blank_start]mantle[blank_end] and [blank_start]crust[blank_end], and is surrounded by the [blank_start]atmosphere[blank_end].

77The Earth's [blank_start]crust[blank_end] and the [blank_start]upper[blank_end] [blank_start]part[blank_end] of the [blank_start]mantle[blank_end] are cracked into a number of large pieces ([blank_start]tectonic[blank_end] [blank_start]plates[blank_end]).

78[blank_start]Convection[blank_end] [blank_start]currents[blank_end] within the Earth's mantle driven by [blank_start]heat[blank_end] released by natural [blank_start]radioactive[blank_end] processes cause the [blank_start]plates[blank_end] to [blank_start]move[blank_end] at relative speeds of a few centimetres per year.

79The movements can be sudden and disastrous. [blank_start]Earthquakes[blank_end] and / or [blank_start]volcanic[blank_end] [blank_start]eruptions[blank_end] occur at the [blank_start]boundaries[blank_end] between [blank_start]tectonic[blank_end] plates.

80For 200 million years, the proportions of different gases in the atmosphere have been much the same as they are today:
- about [blank_start]four[blank_end] [blank_start]fifths[blank_end] ([blank_start]80[blank_end]%) nitrogen
- about [blank_start]one[blank_end] [blank_start]fifth[blank_end] ([blank_start]20[blank_end]%) oxygen
- small proportions of various other gases, including [blank_start]carbon[blank_end] [blank_start]dioxide[blank_end], [blank_start]water[blank_end] [blank_start]vapour[blank_end] and [blank_start]noble[blank_end] gases- Afour

81During the first billion years of the Earth's existence there was intense [blank_start]volcanic[blank_end] activity. This activity released the [blank_start]gases[blank_end] that formed the early [blank_start]atmosphere[blank_end] anew [blank_start]water[blank_end] [blank_start]vapour[blank_end] that [blank_start]condensed[blank_end] to form the [blank_start]oceans[blank_end].

82There are several theories about how the atmosphere was formed. One theory suggests that during this period the Earth's atmosphere was mainly [blank_start]carbon[blank_end] [blank_start]dioxide[blank_end] and there would have been little or no [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end] gas (like the atmospheres of Mars and Venus today). There may also have been [blank_start]water[blank_end] [blank_start]vapour[blank_end] and small proportions of [blank_start]methane[blank_end] and ammonia.

83There are many theories as to how life was formed billions of years ago. There was only one theory as to how life was formed which involved the [blank_start]interaction[blank_end] between [blank_start]hydrocarbons[blank_end], [blank_start]ammonia[blank_end] and [blank_start]lightning[blank_end] which was the [blank_start]Miller[blank_end]-[blank_start]Urey[blank_end] [blank_start]Experiment[blank_end].

85Most of the carbon from the carbon dioxide in the air gradually became locked up in [blank_start]sedimentary[blank_end] [blank_start]rocks[blank_end] as [blank_start]carbonates[blank_end] and [blank_start]fossil[blank_end] [blank_start]fuels[blank_end].

86The oceans also act as a [blank_start]reservoir[blank_end] for [blank_start]carbon[blank_end] [blank_start]dioxide[blank_end] but increased amounts of carbon dioxide [blank_start]absorbed[blank_end] by the [blank_start]oceans[blank_end] has an impact on the [blank_start]marine[blank_end] [blank_start]environment[blank_end].

87Nowadays the release of carbon dioxide by [blank_start]burning[blank_end] fossil fuels [blank_start]increases[blank_end] the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

88Air is a [blank_start]mixture[blank_end] of gases with [blank_start]different[blank_end] [blank_start]boiling[blank_end] [blank_start]points[blank_end] and can be [blank_start]fractionally[blank_end] [blank_start]distilled[blank_end] to provide a source of [blank_start]raw[blank_end] [blank_start]materials[blank_end] used in a variety of [blank_start]industrial[blank_end] processes.
