| cc | cubic centimeters volume measure |
| what is relationship between mL and cc? | Same |
| Density | The replacement between an objects MASS and its VOLUME |
| displacement | A method for measuring the VOLUME of an irregularly shaped object- immerse in a known quantity of water. Change in water is VOLUME of object |
| Energy | The ability to do work |
| Calorie | Unit of heat energy |
| Calorie - how does it work? | Amount of heat energy required to raise 1 gram of water from 14.5 C to 15.5 C |
| Celsius - freezing | 0 or zero degrees C |
| density | measure of MASS RELATING to VOLUME or SIZE of object |
| density (formula) | Density = Mass (M)/Volume (V) |
| Density of water-how to determine? | Record volume (Ex. 30 mL) then weigh (first weigh beaker, then TARE) , record mass - divide mass (grams) by volume (mL) |
| Actual density of water | 1g/mL at 4 degrees C |
| Erlenmayer flask | Flask with wide bottom (cylindrical pyramid shape) |
| What is relationship between milliliter & cubic centimeter? | They are the same |
| Fahrenheit - boiling point water | 212 degrees F |
| Fahrenheit - freezing point of water | 32 degrees F |
| Specific heat | AMount of heat it takes to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance 1 degree Celsius |
| The higher the specific heat... | the more heat energy it take to heat a substance |
| Why is copper good for pots? | Its specific heat is low, therefore it raises temperature easily |
| Gas turns to liquid (ex. water vapor) | Condensation |
| Vapor | Gas state |
| Weight | Strictly defined-the pull of gravity on an objects mass (people weigh less on the moon) |
| Solution | A uniform mixture |
| Solvent | The substance present in greatest concentration in a solution. The dissolving substance Ex. water in salt water |
| Solute | Substance present in smaller concentration in a solution Ex. salt in salt water |
| Liquid changes to gas | Vaporisation |
| Exothermic | A reaction that gives off heat energy |
| Endothermic | A reaction that requires the input of heat energy |
| Isotonic | Used to describe solutions with similar solute and solvent concentrations |
| Heat of fusion | Energy required to melt exactly 1 g of a substance at its melting point |
| Water-heat of fusion | 80 cal are needed to melt 1 gram of ice |
| Heat of vaporisation | Energy required to vaporize 1 g of a substance at its boiling point |
| Water-heat of vaporisation | 540 calories - 1 g of steam gives of 540 calories when it condenses |
| endothermic-use of rock salt to make ice cream | Salt takes energy from water to dissolve-to break the ionic bond, thus making the water COLDER when the salt is there |
| Mole | 6.02 x 10-23rd power |
| Law of Conservation of Matter | Matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction |
| combination reaction Ex. | burn magnesium - produces light-reacts w/Oxygen to become magnesium oxide |
| Single replacement reaction Ex. | magnesium ribbon into test tube of HCI - hydrochloric acid - dissolves to become MgO (Hydrogen is given off as gas) this is EXOTHERMIC - gives off heat |
| Double replacement reaction Ex. | Epsom salt Magnesium Slfat MgSO4 crystals with sodium hydroxide |
| Boyle's Law | INVERSE relationship between P(pressure) and V (volume) for gases - as Pressure increases, volume decreases |
| Boy-cott's Law | Pressure decreased "volume" |
| Charles Law | DIRECT relationship between temperature and volume-as temperature increases in a gas, so does volume |
| Record gas temperatures | in KELVIN |
| Boyle's law Ex | Marshmallow in syringe-expanded as pressure is decreased when plunger is pulled back |
| inhale...volume increases therefore | pressure is decreased (boyle's law) and more air rushes in to fill the space |
| breath out--volume of lung decreases...t | therefore air goes out as pressure increases |
| Colloids | homogenous mixtures of larger particles dispersed in a dispersing medium-TYNDALL EFFECT |
| Colloid - Ex. | Starch in water-will go through filter, but water is cloudy |
| Tyndall effect | Colloids-large particles reflect light in a solution |
| Tyndall Effect Ex. | Polluted air reflecting light at sunset |
| Colloid (human) | Blood |
| Suspension | Sand in water-won't filter-forms particles |
| Solution | A uniform mixture-ex. salt water |
| Polarity-how does it affect solutions? | "like dissolves like" - nonpolar solvents will dissolve non polar solvents (ex. sugar dissolves in water, but not in oil) |
| Water is polar? | Universal solvent-will dissolve ionic compounds |
| Diffusion | Tendency of things to move from areas of greater concentration to areas of lesser concentration |
| Tonicity | comparison of realtive solute concerntration of two solutions |
| HYPERtonic | solute with greater concernation is HYPERTONIC |
| HYPO tonic | Solute with lower concentration |
| ISO tonic | when two solutions have same solute concentration they are isotonic |
| Physiological solutions | Isotonic with blood plasma - same osmotic pressure as cells and would be isotonic with cells |
| Osmosis | Movement of water across a semi-permeable membrane |
| Dialysis | Movement of substances OTHER than water across or through a membrane |
| What are units of specific gravity? | None-units cancel--it is a comparison of substance to density of water |
| Ex. of specific gravity | Urine - measured - carries wastes, so has higher density than just water |
| Diffusion | Ex ammonia on paper (phenolphtalein) turns pink when put in contact with ammonia--even gas will cause it to change color |
| 5% Dextrose in water | Physiological solution-Isotonic/same osmotic pressure as cells-may be used intravenously |
| 0.9% saline (NaCl) | Isotonic--physiologic solution- ok to use intravenously |
| Distilled water is ... | HYPO tonic to everything |
| Elodia in distilled water | Distilled water is HYPO compared to "hyper" cells-so water flows IN |
| Elodia in salt water | Water flows OUT of Elodea(shrinks) to increase water in the salt solution |
| Hemolysis | REd blood cells - if placed in water (HYPO compared to the blood cell), then water will flow in by osmosis, swelling the red blood cell & causing it to burst |
| Crenation | If placed in 10% salt (HYPER compared to water) then water flows out of the cell & it shrinks. Like PICKLES, which shrivel & lose water to the salt/pickling solution |
| Dialysis - iodine/starch | starch is in bag--iodine crosses membrane & is absorbed by starch (which is a colloid & can't get through membrane) |
| Renal function - | remove excess water, cellular waste |
| Hemodialysis | Blood flows in-bathed in dilysis solution-waster products flow through membranes |
| Specifi gravity of water | 1.000 g/mL |
| Specific gravity of urine - range | 1.003 to 1.030 g/mL |
