Chapters 1-3
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Matter | Anything that has mass and takes up space |
| States of matter | Solid, liquid, gas |
| Physical properties | All properties that do not involve chemical reactions |
| Chemical properties | The chemical reactions a substance undergoes |
| Chemical change/Chemical reaction | Substances are used up (disappear) and others are formed to take their places |
| Physical changes | Change where the identity of the substances do not change; most involve changes of state |
| Calculation for density | d=m/v |
| Calculation for specific gravity | Density in g/mL / 1.00 g/mL (it is unitless/dimensionless) |
| Classifications of matter | Matter -> pure substances and mixtures. Pure substances can be divided into elements, which chemically combine to form compounds. Mixtures can be divided into homogenous and heterogenous matter. |
| Diatomic elements | O2, H2, N2, F2, Cl2, Br2, I2 |
| Three subatomic particles of an atom | Proton, electron, neutron |
| Proton | A subatomic particle that has a positive charge (+1) and a mass of approximately 1 amu; it is found in a nucleus |
| Electron | A subatomic particle with a charge of -1 and a mass of approximately 0.0005 amu. It is found in the space surrounding a nucleus |
| Neutron | A subatomic particle with a mass of approximately 1 amu and a charge of zero; found in the nucleus |
| Mass number | The sum of the number of protons and neutrons in an atoms nucleus |
| Atomic number | Number of protons in an atoms nucleus |
| Isotopes | Atoms with the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons |
