Science
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Energy | The ability to produce change or produce heat. |
| Potential Energy | Energy stored in the object due to its position or composition. |
| Kinetic Energy | Energy of motion. Energy in use. |
| Temperature | A measure of the average kinetic energy of the atoms or molecules in the system. |
| As temperature increases, particles move | Faster when it's warmer. |
| As temperature decreases, particles move | Slower when it's colder. |
| Heat moves from | Hot to cold. |
| Q= (Dividing) | MCAT (Multiplying). |
| Exothermic | A process that emits energy into the surroundings. |
| Endothermic | A process that absorbs energy from the surroundings. |
| Q | Heat J. |
| C | Specific heat capacity J/C X G. |
| M | Mass G. |
| AT | Change in temperature Degrees C. |
| Start/Final Temperature | Add on the answer and C is not in the formula because it's added on at the end (5 degrees C). |
| Rigid | Does not change it's shape. |
| Fixed Shape | Has a shape. |
| Fixed Volume | Has a volume. |
| Law of Conservation of Energy | Energy cannot be created or destroyed. |
| Why is the phrase, “you’re letting the cold air in!!!” wrong? | It's not that air is going in, but the heat is going out since heat goes to cold. |
| Melting | Change of physical state when a solid turns into a liquid. |
| Freezing | Change of physical state when a liquid turns into a solid. |
| Vaporisation | Change of physical state when a liquid turns into a gas. |
| Condensation | Change of physical state when a gas turns into a liquid. |
| Heating and Cooling Curves | Ice (Solid), Freezing/Melting/Ice/Water (Solid/Liquid), Water (Liquid), Boiling/Condensing/Vaporizing/Water/Gas (Liquid/Gas), Gas. |
| The Chart Heating and Cooling Curves Goes | Increase, stays the same, increase, stays the same, and increase. Decrease, stays the same, decrease, stays the same, and decrease. |
| Why Can't Energy Be Created Or Destroyed? | This is because it keeps changing it's form. (Kinetic to Potential to Kinetic to Potential) |
| Solid | No real movement and compact. Rigid, fixed shape, and fixed volume. Cannot be crushed. |
| Liquid | Spread out a little bit, some movement, and has a shape. Not rigid, no fixed shape, and fixed volume. Cannot be crushed. |
| Gas | There are fewer particles and are farther apart. Not rigid, no fixed shape, and no fixed volume. Can be crushed. |
| How do you know which one is cold air and which one is hot air? | The cold air is blue with short lines and closer together while the hot air is red with longer lines more spread out. |
| Specific Heat Capacity | The amount of energy required to change a gram of a substance by one Celsius or Kelvin. |
| Heat Of Fusion | The amount of energy required to change a gram of a substance from the solid to the liquid state (melting) 334 J/G. |
| Heat Of Vaporization | The amount of energy required to change a gram of a substance from the liquid to the gaseous state (evaporation) 2260 J/G. |
| Formula For Melting and Freezing | Q=mHf. |
| Formula For Boiling and Condensation | Q=mHv. |
| Why Is There No Change In Temperature For Heat Of Fusion and Evaporation? | There's no change of kinetic energy. |
| Sublimation, Boiling, Melting are... | Endothermic. |
| Deposition, Condensation, Freezing are... | Exothermic. |
| Heat Of Fusion and Vaporization Key Words | Room temperature, melt, vaporize, heat, boil, solidify, liquid, evaporation, vaporization, gas, removed, added, solid, and no change in temperature. S --> L, L --> S, L --> G, G --> L |
| Specific Heat Question Key Words | Weighing, raised, initial, final, change in temperature, absorbed, rises, increases, decreases, and releases. S, L, G |
