Economics (1)

BASIC CONCEPTS

Alain Li

Sconomics() is the study of human behaviour in using limited. resources to meet unlimited wants.

In economics, there are the following basic concepts:

A. Wants

Want's (refer to the desires for anything that people like to have. Those desires for something necessary. for survival are called needs (3).

Wants are unlimited. When 'some wants are met, new wants will arise.

B. Utility,

Utility (2) is conventionally | defined as the amount of satisfaction derived from the consumption of a good economics service. Some modern regard it as a set of numbers ranking or evaluating the wants of people.

1.3 Atomic number(2) of an element is the number of protons in its atom. It is a fundamental characteristic of an element. Mass number(A) of an element is the total number of protons and neutrons in its atom.

1.4 The number of the fundamental particles in atom X is denoted by its full atomic symbol as shown below.

Ax

1.5 Isotopes of an element are atoms having the same number of protons (ie. same Z) but different number of neutrons (ie. different A). They have the same chemical properties,

35 e.g. 1501 and 37c1.

1.6 According to Rutherford's atomic model, an atom is regarded. as consisting of a minute nucleus (composed of protons and neutrons) with electrons, moving around it. 1.7 The electrons in an atom are in different energy levels. They move rapidly. in "shells" around nucleus.

the

The shells are at different distances from the nucleus and are numbered, with the 1st shell being nearest to the nucleus, and so on..

1.8 The 1st shell can accommodate 2 electrons, the 2nd shell 8 electrons and the 3rd shell 18 electrons.

C. Wealth

報日僑華

Wealth) is a stock of assets. When these assets are employed in production, they are called capital (##).

Wealth include (1) physical assets, and (2) financial assets. All of these can be productive and yield a stream of income or services over time.

D. Economic, and Free Goods

Economic goods (24) refer to those goods which can generate utility but are scarce in supply. So an economic good bears a price.

Free goods (4) refer to those goods "which can also generate

available utility and are

in such abundance that everyone's desire for them can be satisfied. So a free good bears zero 'price.

E. Scarcity and Choice.

As people have unlimited wants but the resources to fulfill these wants are limited, scarcity () arises. Therefore, people have to make choices in deciding which wants are

to be satisfied first.

F. Opportunity Cost

Because of scarcity, obtaining more- of one thing requires giving up some of another thing. In other words, the cost (4M of obtaining one good is. another good that has been given up.

In economics, the relevant cost of any decision is its opportunity cost ( ** * * * ) that is the highest- valued alternative given up.

G. Price and Value

四期星二日九十二月九(八八九一年七十七國民華中

Price ($), or more accurately, relative price(相對價格), is an exchange ratio between two goods in the market. Usually, the price of a good is expressed in terms of money.

There are 2 kinds of value: (1) use value ( (940 and (2) exchange value 470). Use value refers to the utility generated in the consumption of a good or a service. Exchange value means the price of a good or service.

H. Production and Consumption

Production (4) is the process of utilizing resources to create goods which are used to satisfy wants. Production creates utilities resulting from: (1) changes in form, (2) changes in time, (3) changes in place and (4) the provision of services.

消费 Consumption (

) is the utilization of goods .to generate utility. There are 2 kinds of consumption: (1) household consumption. and (2) capital consumption, Consumer goods f ) are for household consumption and producer goods

are for capital consumption.

I. Income and Expenditure

Income (*) is the amount of wealth produced over a period of time. It is a flow of goods, services, or accruing to the owner's of. money production factors. It is used either for consumption or for addition to

2.4 Elements having the same number of electron shells are in the same period. This number is the same as the period number.

e.g. C is in group 4, so, it has 4e in its outermost shell.

2.6 Elements in the same group have similar chemical properties though, their reactivity varies down group.

2.7 Trends down group:

(a) Atomic size increases (as there

ase more electron shers). Metallic character increases. B.. and density increase. (d) Reactivity of metals increases. (e) Reactivity of non-metals

decreases.

2.8 Trends across a period: (a). Atomic size decreases as electrons are more strongly attracted

to the nucleus.

(b) Metallic character decreases, 1.e.

metals (e.g. Na). gradually changes to semi-metals or amphoteric metals (e.g. Al) (e.g. Si) and finally to non-metals (e.g. Cl}.

(c) M.p., b.p. and density usually increase from group 1 to group 4 and then decrease to group 8.

3. Chemical Bonding

3.1 Chemical bonding describes the force or structure which keep two or more atoms, similar or different, linked together.

3.2 Since noble elements (e.g. He, Ne, Ar) are chemically inert and they all have complete outermost shell's (1.e. having 2 or 8 e in the

shell), outermost

so might electronic configuration represent a sort of stable electronic configuration (known as stable duplet and: octet). As a consequence, all the have unstable other elements will configurations.

3.3 Through the chemical bonding, all the elements will be able to attain the stable duplet or octet.

3.4 An atom may achieve the stable electronic configuration by one of the following three ways:

wealth.

Expenditure () is the amount of wealth used in consumption over a

period of time. It leads to a reduction of wealth.

J. Types of Economy

Broadly speaking, there are 2 types of economy: (1) market economy and (2) planned economy.

Market economy 市場經濟315

Firstly, the prices of the goods tell people what to produce. Secondly, the prices of the production factors let people know how to produce cheaply. And thirdly, the prices of the production factors determine the incomes of the factor owners and, hence, for whom to produce.

Planned economy (計劃經濟) is

based on state ownership of resources. A central authority decides what people should do in the economy. In other words, it decides what to produce, how to produce and for whom to produce. The role of price is not so important as in the market ecomomy. Price is mainly for counting or calculation.

The pure types of market economy or planned economy do not exist. Most economies belong to the type of so- called mixed economy (24) which possesses in different degrees the characteristics typès.

The electron pairs shared between two atoms are called the bond pairs or covalent bonds.

3.9 A co-ordinate covalent (or dative) bond is resulted when a shared pair of electrons totally from one of the bonded atoms. However, it is identical in nature to a normal covalent bond. e.g.
