Question | Answer |
the number of electrons in the outermost shell that have the highest energy level and are held most loosely in place | valence electrons |
the number of __________ determines many properties of the element, including ways in which the atom can _________ with other atoms | electrons/bonds |
a symbol for an element surronded by dots the represent the number of __________ __________. It is a visual representation. | valence electrons and this is the definition of a electron dot diagram |
is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed without changing the substance into another substance | physical property |
give 3 examples of a physical property | color, hardness, texture, shine, flexibility |
is a characteristic of a substance that describes its ability to change into other substances | chemical property |
give 3 examples of a chemical property | burning, tarnishing, rusting |
is any change that alters the form or apperance of a substance but that does not make the substance into another substance | physical change |
give 3 examples of a physical change | bending, breaking, cutting, crushing, phase change |
is a change in matter that produces one or more new substances | chemical reaction |
give 3 examples of a chemical reaction | burning, glow sticks, our reaction |
a reaction in which energy is absorbed | endothermic reaction |
give an example of an endothermic reaction | frying an egg |
a reaction that releases energy in the form of heat | exothermic reaction |
give an example of an exothermic reaction | fuel + oxygen changing into energy in an engine |
a short, easy way to show a chemial reaction using symbols instead of words | chemical equations |
the small number following a chemical symbol that tells how many atoms there are of that element. If there is no number after the symbol it is understood to be one. | subscript |
are large numbers in front of an element that tell how many molecules there are of that compound | coefficents |
everything that goes into a chemical equation or what is on the left of the arrow | reactants |
everything that comes out of the reaction or is on the right side of the arrow | products |
shows that a chemical reaction has taken place. reads "yields" or "to produce" | arrow |
are used to separate two or more reactants or products. on the reactant side it is read as "combindes with" on product side it is read as "and" | plus signs |
states that during a chemical reaction matter is not created or destroyed. Whatever goes in on the reactant side must come out on the product side in the same amount. They can be in a different form. | Conservation of mass |
states that the total mass of the reactant must equal the total mass of the product. | The principle of Conservation of Mass |
is a chemical reaction in which some of the products escape and can’t be measured | open system |
is a chemical reaction that takes place in a contained setting where all products can be measured | closed system |
give an example of a open system | fireplace |
give an example of a closed system | our reaction in ziploc |
the same number of atoms of each element must be on each side of the equation. | Golden Rule |
the basic particle from which all elements are made | atom |
a neutral particle made of two or more atoms joined by covalent bonds | molecule |
a pure substance that cannot be broken down into other substances by physical or chemical means | element |
a pure substance made of two or more elements chemically combinde | compound |
name the 3 parts of the atom, where they are and what there charge is | proton-in nucleus-positive charge neutron-in nucleus-no charge electron- in electron cloud- negative charge |
force of attraction between two atoms | chemical bond |
what did Henri Becquerel discover? | the effects of radioactive decay while studying a mineral containing uranium |
What did Marie and Pierre Curie discover? | radioactivity |
the spontaneous emission of radiation by unstable atomic nucleus | radioactivity |
what 2 elements did Marie Curie discover? | polonium & radium |
consist of two protons and two neutrons with a positive charge | alpha particle |
fast-moving electron givin off by the nucleus during radioactive decay | beta particle |
consists of high-energy waves, similar to X-rays. Has no charge and does not change the atomic number or atomic mass | gamma radiation |
name the uses of radioactive isotopes | tracing the steps in a chemical reaction and industrial process, and diagnosing and treating disease |
are radioactive isotopes that can be followed through the steps of a chemical reaction or industrial process | tracers |
