Chemistry mid-term
Term | Definition |
---|---|
intrinsic properties | will not change even of the amount of the substance changes - freezing point |
example of intrinsic properties | the unknown powder was white |
extrinsic properties | will change if the amount of the substance changes- length, mass, volume |
example of extrinsic of properties | the mass of the unknown powder was 25g |
what is an element | made of only one type of atom |
what is a compound | two or more different atoms chemically combined |
example of a compound | salt - NaCl |
what is a mixture | combination of pure substances; physically separated back into their component parts |
example of a mixture | liquid in babies bottle (compound, element, mixture) |
homogeneous mixture | uniform throughout; if you take a sample away from the solution you will have the same mixture as the mixture you took it from |
heterogeneous mixture | are not uniform throughout; will never be equal amounts of the substance in mixture |
example of homogeneous | the liquid in babies bottle (homogeneous, heterogeneous) |
example of heterogeneous | italian dressing and oil + water |
physical properties | of a substance they are qualities that can be observed without changing the substance into something else - changes shape, size, and state |
chemical properties | of a substance allows it to change its molecular composition (change from one substance to another) - a formation of a new substance with new properties |
example of chemical properties | the unknown sold didn't react with vinegar |
example of physical properties | the unknown was solid |
to separate oil and water | density |
separate sand and water | filter |
how to determine energy levels | there are 7 energy levels and it goes by groups on the periodic table - group 6 = 6 energy levels |
how to determine valence electrons | what period it is in determines it - period 1 = 1 valence electron |
how to determine oxidation numbers | period 1 = 1+ etc.. once get to 4 go back down period 8 = 1- |
how to determine atomic radius | gets higher as you go down toward the bottom left corner |
how to determine ionization energy and electronegativity | increases as up go up toward the top right corner |
traits of a covalent bond | nonmetal+nonmetal, shared electrons, doesn't conduct electricity, low melting point, less then 1.7 electronegaivity, |
traits of a ionic bond | metal+nonmetal, greater than 1.7 electronegativity, doesn't conduct electricity as a solid, high melting point, brittle |
trait of a metallic bond | metal+metal, shared electrons, conducts electricity, high melting point, malleable, ductile |
polar | uneven; not equal (electronegitivity between 0.3- 1,7) |
non-polar | even on all sides (electronegativity less than 0.3) |
metallic bond | all positive ions and closely packed |
ionic bond | crystal lattice |
covalent bond | single connected |
