化合物とは 2つ以上の元素が 特定の割合で 構成された物質のことです これらの化合物を 正確に記述するために 化学式が開発されました 化学式は 元素と それに関与するイオンや 原子の数についての 情報を提供します 元素は化学記号で表され イオンや原子の相対的な数は 添え字番号で示されます 例えば テーブルシュガーやショ糖は 炭素 水素 および酸素という 元素を含む化合物です 元素記号 C H およびOを 使用して表されます 数字の12 22 および11は 化合物内に存在する炭素 水素 および酸素原子の 合計数を示しています 一般的に 元素は アルファベット順ではなく 正に帯電している元素や 金属元素から始まり 水酸化カリウムのように 負に帯電している元素や 金属元素が少ない元素が続きます 化学式は 分子式 実験式 構造式に分類されます 分子式は 各要素と存在する 原子の正確な数をカウントして 化合物を記述します グルコースの分子式は C_6H_12O_6で グルコースは6つの炭素 12の水素 および6つの酸素原子で 構成されていることを意味します 実験式は 存在する原子の 最も単純な 全数比を表示します グルコースでは 炭素 水素 酸素原子の 最も単純な比率は1:2:1です それはCH_2Oという 実験式になります 化合物の分子式もまた その実験式の整数倍です グルコースでは 実験式と整数6の 掛け算で分子式が得られます これに対して 構造式は 個々の原子の関係を 図式化して 表します 化学記号は原子を表し 短線は化学結合を表します 一本の線は単結合を表し 二本の線は二重結合を 三本の線は三重結合を表します 構造式の拡張モデルとして 透視図法 ボールアンド スティックモデル 空間充填モデルなどがあり 分子の形状を立体的に 表現することができます 3つの化学式のうち 構造式が最も化学物質に関する 情報を提供し 分子式がそれに続きます 実験式は最も情報が少なく なっています

化学式

化学式では、主に元素と数値の記号を使用して、特定の化学化合物または分子を構成する原子の割合に関する情報を示します。 ダッシュ、丸括弧、角括弧、カンマ、プラス、マイナスなどの記号も使用されます。 化学式には、分子式、実験式、構造式の 3 つのタイプがあります。 
 
 <h4>分子式 </h4>
 
 分子式は、化学記号（原子のタイプを示す）と下付き数字（分子の各タイプの原子の数を示す）を使用して分子または化学化合物を表します。 分子式は化合物名の略語としても使用されます。 
 
 一部の元素は、希ガスのヘリウム、ネオン、アルゴンなどの個別の原子で構成されています。 このような元素は単原子ガスと呼ばれ、分子式はそれぞれ He 、 Ne 、 Ar です。 ほとんどの元素は、同じ元素の原子で 2 つ以上の化学的に結合した分子として存在しています。 たとえば、水素、酸素、窒素などの元素は、それぞれ 2 つの原子を含む二原子分子として存在し、それぞれ分子式 H2 、 O2 、 N2 となります。 同様に、リンや硫黄などの元素は、それぞれ分子式 P4 と S8 を持つポリ原子分子として存在します。  
 
 シンボルの後に続く下付き文字とシンボルの前にある数字は同じ意味ではないことに注意してください。たとえば、 H2 と 2H はまったく異なる種を表します。 H2 は分子式で、化学的に結合された元素の 2 つの原子からなる水素の二原子分子を表します。 一方、 2H という式は、ユニットとして結合されていない 2 つの水素原子を示しています。 2H2 という表現は二原子水素の 2 つの分子を表します。 
 
 <h4>実験式 </h4>
 
 化合物は、化学的に 2 つ以上の元素が結合すると形成され、結合が形成されます。 たとえば、水素と酸素が反応して水になり、ナトリウムと塩素が反応して塩化ナトリウムまたは食卓塩となります。 これらの化合物の組成は、原子の種類と化合物内の原子（またはイオン）数の最も単純な整数比率を示す実験式で記述することもあります。 例えば、二酸化チタン（白色塗料の顔料として使用され、厚白色のブロッキングタイプの日焼け止めで使用される）は、 TiO2 という実験式を持っています。 これにより、二酸化チタンの成分としてチタン（ Ti ）と酸素（ O ）が同定され、酸素原子の数はチタン原子の 2 倍あることを示します。 
 
 多くの場合、化学物質の分子式は、実験式と分子質量（分子を構成するすべての原子の原子質量の合計）の両方の実験的な測定から得られます。 たとえば、ベンゼンには炭素（ C ）と水素（ H ）の 2 つの元素が含まれており、ベンゼン中のすべての炭素原子には水素原子が 1 つ含まれていることが実験的にわかります。 したがって、経験的な式は CH です。 分子量の実験的な決定により、ベンゼンの分子には 6 個の炭素原子と 6 個の水素原子が含まれていることが明らかになり、ベンゼンの分子式は C6H6 です。 
 
 <h4>構造式 </h4>
 
 化合物の構造式は、分子式（分子内の原子のタイプと数）と同じ情報を与えるが、分子内の原子がどのように結合されているかも示します。 つまり、構造式は化合物の分子構造をグラフィカルに表します。 実際の3次元空間において、原子がどのように配置されているか、どのようにつながっているかを示しており、分子の幾何学的な情報を得ることができます。原子間に存在する結合は線で表現します。 式の中には、分子の形状を表すおおよその結合角が描かれていることもあります。

reading molecular, empirical, and structural formulas

Chemical formulas show the types and proportions of atoms in a compound or molecule. They use element symbols and numbers. Some formulas also use dashes, parentheses, brackets, commas, plus signs, and minus signs.

A molecular formula shows a molecule or compound with chemical symbols and subscript numbers. The symbols tell which atoms are present, and the subscripts show how many of each atom are in the molecule. Molecular formulas can also serve as short names for compounds.

Some elements exist as separate atoms. The noble gases helium, neon, and argon are monatomic gases, so their molecular formulas are He, Ne, and Ar. Other elements form molecules with two or more bonded atoms of the same element. Hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen are diatomic and have the formulas H2, O2, and N2. Phosphorus and sulfur are polyatomic and have the formulas P4 and S8.

It is important to tell the difference between a subscript and a number in front of a symbol. H2 means one diatomic hydrogen molecule. The expression 2H means two separate hydrogen atoms. The expression 2H2 means two hydrogen molecules.

An empirical formula shows the types of atoms present and the simplest whole-number ratio of those atoms or ions in a compound. Compounds form when two or more elements chemically combine and make bonds. Water and sodium chloride are common examples of compounds. Titanium dioxide has the empirical formula TiO2, which shows titanium and oxygen and means there are twice as many oxygen atoms as titanium atoms.

In many cases, a molecular formula is found from the empirical formula and the molecular mass. Molecular mass is the sum of the atomic masses of all atoms in a molecule. Benzene is one example. Experiments show that benzene contains carbon and hydrogen in a 1:1 ratio, so its empirical formula is CH. Its molecular mass shows that one molecule contains six carbon atoms and six hydrogen atoms, so its molecular formula is C6H6.

A structural formula gives the same atom count information as a molecular formula, but it also shows how the atoms are connected. It draws the molecular structure in a way that helps show the probable arrangement of atoms in three-dimensional space. Lines represent bonds between atoms. Structural formulas may also show approximate bond angles, which gives a sense of molecular shape.

Atomic Elements, Molecules, and Bonds

Matter is made of elements, and elements are built from atoms. An atom is the smallest unit of an element that still keeps that element’s properties. A silver coin, for example, is made of silver atoms. Each atom keeps the unique properties of silver. Elements are pure substances made of identical atoms. They cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical changes. Most elements are atomic elements, which use single atoms as their basic unit. Carbon and sodium are examples of atomic...

classification of elements and compounds

Atomic vs Molecular Substances and Bonding

Pure substances are made of only one kind of matter. A pure substance can be an element or a compound. An element contains only one type of atom. A compound contains two or more types of atoms joined by a chemical bond. Elements are classified as atomic or molecular based on their basic units. Compounds are classified as ionic or molecular, also called covalent, based on the bonds they contain. Molecular compounds form when two or more different nonmetal atoms share electrons. Their basic...

ionic compounds: formulas and nomenclature

ionic-compounds-formulas-and-nomenclature

Ionic Charges, Formulas, and Naming Rules

Ionic compounds form when metals transfer electrons to nonmetals and create oppositely charged ions. The electrostatic attraction between the ions, called an ionic bond, holds the compound together. Many nonmetals gain electrons by moving toward the electron count of the next noble gas. Group 17 atoms usually gain one electron and form 1− ions, while group 16 atoms usually gain two electrons and form 2− ions. Oxygen is a clear example. A neutral oxygen atom has 8 protons and 8 electrons. When...

molecular models

Molecular Model Types in Chemistry

Molecular models help chemists and students visualize the structures and shapes of atoms and molecules. They represent the molecular architecture of chemical compounds in a way that is easier to study than formulas alone. Skeletal models are simple two-dimensional drawings of compounds. They show the molecular framework, or the bonds, without drawing every atom. In this model, many carbon and hydrogen atoms are not shown directly. Their positions are implied by the ends and junctions of the...

molecular-compounds-formulas-and-nomenclature

Naming Covalent Compounds and Acids

Molecular compounds are covalent compounds made when atoms share electrons. Because there is no electron transfer, they do not contain ions. They are made of separate, neutral molecules. Since covalent compounds usually form from nonmetals, the periodic table can help students recognize many of them. In many cases, the positions of the elements can also help predict whether a compound is ionic or covalent, although there are exceptions. Molecular compounds are named differently from ionic...

organic compounds

Organic Molecules in Everyday Chemistry

Organic molecules are carbon-based compounds found in living things and in many everyday products. Most organic compounds have carbon as the main element, bonded to hydrogen and other carbon atoms. Some carbon-containing substances, such as carbonates, cyanides, and simple oxides like CO and CO2, are not classified as organic. Carbon can form up to four strong bonds, which helps explain why organic compounds can make chains and rings of many sizes and shapes. These molecules appear in...

formula-mass-and-mole-concepts-of-compounds

Chemical Formula Mass and Percent Composition

Chemical formula mass and percent composition help describe the makeup of compounds. A chemical formula shows which atoms are present and how many of each atom appear in a substance. For covalent compounds, the formula shows the atoms in one molecule. That is why formula mass can also be called molecular mass. Chloroform, CHCl3, is one example. Its formula shows one carbon atom, one hydrogen atom, and three chlorine atoms. The molecular mass is the sum of their average atomic masses. Ionic...

experimental determination of chemical formula

Finding Empirical and Molecular Formulas

Chemical formulas show the elemental makeup of a compound. When a formula is unknown, scientists often start by measuring the masses of the elements in the sample. Those mass data are then used to find the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms, which gives the empirical formula. To get from mass to atom ratio, the masses of the elements are first converted to moles using molar masses. Chemical formulas describe numbers of atoms, not masses, so this step is necessary. In one example, 1.71 grams...

chemical equations

Reading Chemical Equations and Balancing Them

Chemical equations show the identities and relative amounts of substances in a chemical reaction. The substances that react are called reactants, and their formulas are written on the left side of the equation. The substances formed are called products, and their formulas are written on the right side. A plus sign (+) separates formulas on the same side, and an arrow (→) shows the change from reactants to products. The numbers in a chemical equation are shown with coefficients. A coefficient...
