Ch. 1 Introduction
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Analytical Chemistry | Study of what and how much of a chemical is in a sample |
Organic Chemistry | Study of the chemistry of carbon |
Inorganic Chemistry | Study of elements other thatn carbon |
Physical Chemistry | Study of energy, chemical reaction rates,properties of gases& physical properties of chemicals |
Nuclear Chemistry | Study of how elements are transformed into other elements |
Elements | A single type of atom i.e carbon, hydrogen or iodine |
Compounds AKA Molecules | Material that contain one or more elements in a specific ration |
Mixtures | Materials that cannot be written as a precise chemical formula |
Heterogeneous Mixtures | Have components that can be identified. & if separated by physical methods. Ex. is Beach sand has silicon dioxide, sald, cigarette ashes etc. |
Homogeneous Mixtures | Cannot have their iddividual components identified & separted by physical methods. Ex. Salt water which can have a lot of small amt of salt but molecules cannot be identified. |
Physical changes | involved in changing on the form of material. Ex. Freezing water goes from liquid to soldid |
Chemical changes | involve the formation of new molecules. Ex. yeast, digest sugar form ethanol |
Chemical changes 2 | Change in smell, color, heat is generated, light or sound is released. |
Chemical reactions | involves rearranging the elements. |
Nuclear reactions | Start with a specific element but wind up with another |
