Question | Answer |
---|---|
definite volume, no definite shape | liquid |
no definite volume or shape Ex: oxygen or steam | gases |
gas with its electrons stripped off Ex: Northern Lights, neon signs, the sun | Plasma |
a reaction that needs energy to happen, that "sucks energy IN". This can be cold | endothermic |
a reaction that needs to get rid of energy, that lets "energy EXit". This can be warm | exothermic |
signs of chemical change are? | change in color, change in odor, change in consistency, change in temperature, production of gas, production of precipitate |
definite volume and shape Ex: ice or wood | solid |
atoms occupying the same quantum state | Bose-Einstein Condenstate |
plasma> gas | recombination |
gas>liquid | condensation |
liquid>solid | freezing |
gas>solid | sublimation |
gas>plasma | ionization |
liquid>gas | evaporation or boiling |
solid>liquid | melting |
mass | amount of material in an object-- not the weight; measured in grams |
volume | amount of space an object takes up; measured in liters |
physical change | a change that alters the form or appearance but doesn't make the substance into another substance |
examples of physical change? | phase, shape, form; melting, freezing, boiling cutting, smooshing |
chemical change | a change that produces new substances with new properties different from the original substances |
examples of chemical change? | combustion, oxidation,tarnishing,electrolysis, acid/base reactions; baking soda w/ vinegar, acid on your skin, crackers broken down by spit enzymes |
chemistry | the study of matter and how matter changes |
matter | anything that has mass and volume |
pure substances | fixed compositions (water) distinct properties (boils at 100 degrees C) |
mixtures | combination of pure substances in which the pure substances retain their chemical properties (chocolate chip cookies, salt water) can be separated (filtration, distillation, evaporation, magnetism) |
elements | cannot be broken down into simpler substance and still retain its properties; single elements (Na,H,Fe) |
compounds | two or more elements chemically combined (Salt-- NaCl Water--H2O Rust--Fe2O3) |
homogeneous mixture aka solution | uniformly mixed throughout (saltwater, bronze, sugar, cookie, a fart :D ) |
heterogeneous | varied composition (chocolate chip cookies, jello with fruit, yourself) |
atoms | the smallest unit of an element that maintains the properties of that element |
molecules | composed of two or more elements that are joined by chemical bonds the same elements:H2, O2, N2 different elements:C6H12O6, H2O |
compounds | pure substance composed of two or more different elements joined by a chemical bonds |
