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
