20a. Bond Markets Bonds are notes payable (notes that will be repaid in the future or rather at its maturity) that bear interest during the life of the bond. Typically, bonds are viewed to be safe investments because of its predictable and steady stream of payments (interest). The key difference between stocks and bonds is that when stock is purchased, the stockholder is receiving a percentage of the company they have invested in. In other words, stockholders, depending on the proportion of…

Required Knowledge (Preliminary Course) Energy from Fossil Fuels Originates from sun - solar to chemical by photosynthesis. Red and violet wavelengths of sunlight absorbed by pigment chlorophyll, energy converted to chemical energy in glucose. Glucose – carbohydrate: high-energy compound of C, H and O. 6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) + energy C6H12O6(aq) + 6O2(g) Petroleum consists of cruide oil and natural gas, formed of remains of single-celled marine organisms. Quick burial, decay by bacteria…

Unit Two: Atoms Atomic Models: ● 400 B.C.- billiard ball shaped ● Democritus ○ Asked: Could matter be divided into smaller and smaller pieces forever or is there a limit? ○ Theory: Matter couldn’t be divided any smaller, eventually the smallest piece possible will be achieved ○ “Atomos” - Smallest piece ○ Atoms are infinite in number ○ His theory was ignored for nearly 2000 years ● Dalton ○ All elements are composed of atoms. Atoms are indivisible and indestructible ○ Atoms of the same element…

Chem 220 Notes Page 1 Ch. 01 and 02: Structure and Bonding of Organic Molecules I. Types of Chemical Bonds A. Why do atoms forms bonds? Atoms want to have the same number of electrons as the nearest noble gas atom (noble gas configuration). This requires having a completely full or completely empty valence shell of electrons. Most main groups atoms will try to have eight valence electrons to completely fill their valence shell; this is the octet rule. There are some exceptions: hydrogen…

Chapter 1 1. Introduction: 1.1 Ambient mass spectrometry Mass spectrometry is an essential analytical tool in chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacy, medicine and many other related sciences. It is used in structural elucidation of unknown compounds using m/z ratio of fragmented ions. . ‘Ambient mass spectrometry’ allows direct analysis of samples in their native state in an open air environment. This leads to generation of ions and neutrals outside the vacuum system allowing unique experiments to be…

isomerism etc. (see CH160 lecture notes). Linkage isomers arise because some ligands can bond via one donor atom in one compound, but via a different atom of the same ligand in another compound. Typical examples of linkage isomersism are: NO2– M-NO2 nitrito-κN (formerly nitro) M-ONO nitrito-κO (formerly nitrito) CN– M-CN cyanido-κC (formerly cyano) M-NC cyanido-κN (formerly isocyano) NCS M-SCN thiocyanato-κS (thiocyanato) M-NCS thiocyanato-κN (isothiocyanato) (Note the old names are given for some…
