Question
Answer
Chemical Change   A change in a substance that changes it's identity.  
🗑
Chemical Property   Any characteristic of a material that indicates it can undergo a certain chemical change.  
🗑
Colloid   Heterogeneous mixture with particles that never settle and that are large enough to scatter light.  
🗑
Compound   Two or more elements chemically combined, can only be separated by chemical means.  
🗑
Distillation   a process used to separate two substances in a mixture by evaporating a liquid and recondensing it's vapor.  
🗑
Element   Matter containing the same kinds of atoms.  
🗑
Heterogeneous mixture   Mixture w/ easily distinguishable materials.  
🗑
Homogenous Mixture   Mixture w/ non-distinguishable materials blended evenly throughout.  
🗑
Law of Conservation of Mass   the total mass of all reactants in a chemical reaction is equal to the total mass of all products formed  
🗑
Mixture   two or more substances physically combined, can easily be separated by physical means  
🗑
Physical Change   any change in size, shape, or state of matter in which the identity of the substance remains the same  
🗑
Physical property   any characteristic of a material that can be observed without changing the identity of the substance  
🗑
Solution   homogenous mixture containing microscopic particles in a liquid that remain uniformly and constantly mixed  
🗑
Substance   type of matter w. fixed composition.  
🗑
Suspension   heterogeneous mixture containing visible particles in a liquid that will settle out over time  
🗑
Tyndall Effect   scattering of light by colloid particles.  
🗑
Acid   any substance that produces hydrogen ions, H+, in a water solution  
🗑
Amino acid   building blocks of proteins, made up of carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and sometimes sulfer  
🗑
atom   the smallest particle of an element that still retains the properties of that element  
🗑
Base   any substance that produces hydroxide ions, -OH, in a water solution  
🗑
Carbohydrate   complex molecule formed by condensation, made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms in a ratio of 2 H atoms and 1 O atom for every C atom  
🗑
Compound   a substance containing two or more elements chemically combined  
🗑
Covalent bond   a bond formed between two or more atoms that are sharing electrons  
🗑
Diffusion   the movement of substances from an area of high concentration to low concentration  
🗑
Dynamic equilibrium   equal movement of substances across a membrane  
🗑
Element   Matter containing the same kinds of atoms.  
🗑
Enzyme   a protein that changes the rate of a chemical reaction involved in nearly all metabolic processes  
🗑
Ionic Bond   a bond formed between oppositely charged ions in an ionic compound  
🗑
ion   a charged particle that either has more of fewer electrons that protons  
🗑
Isomer   compound with identical chemical formulas but different molecular structures and shapes  
🗑
Isotope   atoms of same element that have different numbers of neutrons  
🗑
lipid   large biomolecules made of fatty acids, mostly carbon and hydrogen + small amounts of oxygen, that are nonpolar thus insoluble in water  
🗑
Metabolism    
🗑
Hydrogen bond    
🗑
Mixture   two or more substances physically combined, can easily be separated by physical means  
🗑

🗑
Nucleotide    
🗑
nucleus    
🗑
peptide bond   covalent bond formed between amino acids  
🗑
pH   a measure of the concentration of hydronium ions in a solution using a scale ranging from 0-14, with 0 being the most acidic and 14 being the most basic  
🗑
polar molecule   a molecule with a slightly positive and slightly negative end as a result of electrons being shared unequally  
🗑
polymer   class of natural or synthetic substances made up of many smaller, simple molecules, called monomers, arranged in large chains  
🗑
Protein   large complex polymer formed when amino acids bond together in long chains, combine when an H+ ion from the amino group of one amino acid and an -OH ion from the carboxyl group of another amino acid are removed to form a water molecule resulting in the tw  
🗑
solution   homogenous mixture containing microscopic particles in a liquid that remain uniformly and constantly mixed  
🗑
