Question | Answer |
---|---|
atoms | Contained in the nucleus are the protons and neutrons. Moving around the nucleus are the electron shells. They are negatively charged. |
Equations and Maths | To calculate the relative atomic mass, use the following equation: relative atomic mass = (sum o isotope abundance x isotope mass number) / sum of abundances of all isotopes |
elements | Elements are made of atoms with the same atomic number. Atoms can be represented as symbols. |
chemical equations | A chemical reaction can be shown by using a word equation. |
Mixtures, Chromatography and Separation | Mixtures – in a mixture there are no chemical bonds, so the elements are easy to separate Chromatography – to separate out mixtures. Filtration – to separate solids from liquids |
Mixtures, Chromatography and Separation | Evaporation – to separate a soluble salt from a solution; a quick way of separating out the salt. Crystallisation - to separate a soluble salt from a solution; a slower method of separating out salt. |
