Holt Intro to Matter

Intro to Matter Test Review

QuestionAnswer
Matter Anything that has mass and takes up space
Physical Property of Matter Can be observed without changing the identity of the matter
Chemical Property of Matter Substances ability to change into a new substance that has different properties
Examples of Physical Properties Conductivity, state, malleability, ductility, solubility,density, color, shape and volume
Examples of Chemical Properties Flammability and Reactivity; can only be seen when chemical change is happening
Physical Change A change of matter from one form to another, but identity stays the same; No new matter
Chemical Change One or more substances change into entirly new substances with different properties; New matter
Examples of Physical Change Freezing, cutting, bending, dissolving and melting
Examples of Chemical Change Burning wood, Soured milk, effervescent tablets
Signs of Chemical Changes Change in coloror odor, production of heat, fizzing and foaming and sound or light being given off
SI (metric) unit to measure Mass Gram (kilo- milli-)
SI (metric) unit to measure Length Meter (kilo- centi- milli-)
SI (metric) unit to measure Volume Liter (milli-)
Mass A measure of the amount of matter in an object
Weight A measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object; its value can change with the location of the object in the universe
Differences between Mass and Weight 1. Mass is constant regardless of location in universe;Weight varies on location in the universe2. Mass is measured by using a balance; Weight is measured by using a spring scale3. Mass expressed in Grams; Weight expressed in Newtons
Volume Amount of space taken up by an object
Graduated Cylinders Measure the volume of liquids
Volume Formula for REGULARLY shaped solid objects Volume= length*width*height
Volume for IRREGULARLY shaped solid objects By measuring the volume of water the objects displaces
Measure volume of an apple Submerge apple in a container of water and measure the volume of the water that the apple displaces
Density The ratio of the mass of a substance to the volume of the substance; D= M/V
Density of object whose mass= 25g and volume= 10 cm3 25g/ 10 cm3 = 2.5 g/cm3
Density to identify substance useful physical property to identify substance; Substances have unique density; Density of substane is always the same at given temperature and pressure
Density of Water 1.00 g/cm3
Density of Silver 10.50 g/cm3
Density of Oxygen 0.001331 g/cm3
Solids Definite volume & shape; atoms are closest together
Liquids Definite volume, but NO definite shape; atoms slide past each other and move at medium speed
Gas NO definite volume and NO definite shape; atoms move very fast and are spread apart
Change of State change of a substance from one physical form to another
Melting change of state when a Solid becomes a Liquid (SL)
Freezing change of state when a Liquid becomes Solid (LS)
Evaporation change of state when Liquid becomes Gas (LG)
Condensation change of state when Gas becomes Liquid (GL)
Sublimation change of state when Solid becomes Gas (SG)
Example of Melting ice melting, 0 degrees C (energy added)
Example of Freezing water freezing, 0 degrees C (energy removed)
Example of Evaporation when a person sweats
Example of Condensation beads of water form on cool surface
Example of Sublimation Dry Ice
Temperature of substance as it changes state As substance changes state, its temperatue remains constant until the change of state is complete
Endothermic Energy is gained by substance as it changes state; example melting
Exothermic Energy is removed fromthe substance as it changes state; example freezing
Element A substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substance by physical or chemical means
Catagories of Elements Metals, Nonmetals and Metalloids
Properties of Elements Each element has a unique set of properties; may have share some common properties, different properties is haw to tell them apart
Metal Element that is shiny and that conducts heat and electricity well
Nonmetal Element that conducts heat and electricity poorly
Metalloid Element that has properties of both metals and nonmetals
Compound A pure substance made up of 2 OR MORE ELEMENTS that are CHEMICALLY combined
Mixture A combination of 2 or more substances that are NOT chemically combined
Solution A type of MIXTURE that appears to be a single substance
Atom Smallest unit of an element
Electron Subatomic particle that has a negative charge
Nucleus Center of atom; Made up of Protons and Neutrons
Proton Subatomic particle that has a postive charge; found in nucleus
Neutron Subatomic particle that has no charge; found in nucleus
Atomic Number # of Protons in the nucleus of an atom
Mass Number Sum of Protons and Neutrons in the nucleus of an atom
Atomic Mass Mass of an atom expressed in atomic mass units
Period Horizontal/Row of elements
Group or Family Verticle/Column of elements

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
