It contains eight sections, a comprehensive glossary, a Web siteguide, and an index.Chemistry is a learning tool for students and teachers. Full-colordiagrams, graphs, charts, and maps on every page illustrate theessential elements of the subject, while parallel text provides keydefinitions and step-by-step explanations.Atomic Structure provides an overview of the very basic structureof physical matter. It looks at the origins of the elements andexplains the nature of atoms and molecules.Elements and Compounds examines the characteristics of theelements and their compounds in detail. Tables give the boilingpoints, ionization energies, melting points, atomic volumes, atomicnumbers, and atomic masses key elements. Plates also describecrystal structures and covalent bonding.Changes in Matter is an overview of basic chemical processes andmethods. It looks at mixtures and solutions, solubility,chromatography, and the pH scale.Patterns—Non-Metals and Patterns—Metals focus on theproperties of these two distinct groups of elements.
These sectionsalso include descriptions of the industrial processes used whenisolating important elements of both types.Chemical Reactions looks at the essential factors that influencereactions. It includes information on proton transfer, electrolysis,redox reactions, catalysts, and the effects of concentration andtemperature.Chemistry of Carbon details the chemical reactions involvingcarbon that are vital to modern industry—from the distillation ofcrude oil to the synthesis of polymers and the manufacture ofsoaps and detergents. This section also includes an overview of thechemistry of life.Radioactivity is concerned with ionizing radiation, nuclear fusion,nuclear fission, and radioactive decay, as well as the properties ofradiation. Tables describe all known isotopes, both radioactive andnon-radioactive.Contents1 ATOMIC STRUCTURE891011121314151617Formation of starsFate of starsThe solar systemPlanet compositionPlanetary density,

starprotostarsupernovawhite dwarfBig BangBeginnings● Accordingto the Big Ban g theory, theuniverse resulted from a massiveexplosion that created matter, space,and time.● During the first thee minutes followingthe Big Bang, hydrogen and heliumwere formed as the universe began tocool.Hydrogen and heliumInitial formation© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.were formed when gravity causedclouds of interstellar gas and dust tocontract.
These clouds became denserand hotter, with their centers boilingat about a million kelvins.● These heaps became round, glowingblobs called protostars.● Under the pressure of gravity,contraction continued, and a protostargradually became a genuine star.● A star exists when all solid particleshave evaporated and when light atomssuch as hydrogen have begun buildingheavier atoms through nuclearreactions.● Some cloud fragments do not have themass to ignite nuclear reactions.
Thesebecome brown dwarfs.● The further evolution of stars dependson their size (See page 9).● Stars the size of our Sun will eventuallyshed large amounts of matter andcontract into a very dense remnant—awhite dwarf, composed of carbon andoxygen atoms.● More massive stars collapse quicklyshedding much of their mass indramatic explosions calledsu pern ovae. After the explosion, theremaining material contracts into anextremely dense n eu tron star.● The most massive stars eventuallycollapse from their own gravity toblack holes, whose density is infinite.Gravity● StarsCollected mass of liquidhydrogen and helium1 × Sun10 × SunToo little(Brown dwarf)10 (+)× SunNuclear reaction(hydrogen → helium)Nuclear reaction(hydrogen → carbon)Nuclear reaction(helium → carbon → iron)White dwarf(carbon)BlackholeSupernovaexplosionMany heavy elements+ neutron star9Fate of starsATOMIC STRUCTUREKey words1 The fate of a star the size of our sunacbdefblack holefusionneutron starred giantsupernovawhite dwarfFate of stars● Duringmost of a star’s life, theoutward pressure from nuclear fusionbalances the pull of gravity, but asnuclear fuel is exhausted, gravitycompresses the star inward and thecore collapses.

Тип файла PDF
PDF-формат наиболее широко используется для просмотра любого типа файлов на любом устройстве. В него можно сохранить документ, таблицы, презентацию, текст, чертежи, вычисления, графики и всё остальное, что можно показать на экране любого устройства. Именно его лучше всего использовать для печати.
Например, если Вам нужно распечатать чертёж из автокада, Вы сохраните чертёж на флешку, но будет ли автокад в пункте печати? А если будет, то нужная версия с нужными библиотеками? Именно для этого и нужен формат PDF - в нём точно будет показано верно вне зависимости от того, в какой программе создали PDF-файл и есть ли нужная программа для его просмотра.
