Convert 50L to nL | |
What is the density formula? | density=mass/volume |
Matter is.... | makes up all things has mass and occupies space classified according to its composition |
Element: | composed of one type of atom |
Compound: | composed of two or more elements always combined in the same proportion |
Pure substance: Example? | contains only one type of material carbon, C oxygen, O2 |
Mixture: | two or more substances that are physically mixed but not chemically combined two or more substances in different proportions substances that can be separated by physical methods |
Homogeneous mixture (solution): | uniform throughout composition the different parts of the mixture are not visible |
Heterogeneous mixture: | composition varies from one part of the mixture to another the different parts of the mixture are visible |
Mixture or pure substance? Pasta and tomato sauce: Aluminum foil: Helium: Air we breathe: | mixture pure substance pure substance mixture |
Solids: | definite shape definite volume particles are close together in a fixed arrangement particles move very slowly (slow vibrations in a fixed location) |
Liquids: | indefinite shape definite volume same shape as their container particles are close together but mobile particles move at moderate speed particles have attraction to each other |
Gases: | indefinite volume indefinite shape same shape and volume as their container particles are far apart particles move very fast no interactions between particles |
Physical changes: | no change in the identity and composition of the substance change in the state change in the physical shape |
Chemical change: | new composition new chemical properties new physical properties making something new |
Three common temperature scales: | Fahrenheit (F) Celsius (C) Kelvin (K) |
Kelvin temp scale: | units are kelvins no degree symbol in front of K no negative temps 1K=1C |
Formula for converting C to F: | Tf=1.8(Tc)+32 |
Formula for converting F to C: | Tc=Tf-32/1.8 |
Formula for converting C to K: | Tk=Tc+273.15 |
What is 37.2C on the Kelvin scale? | Tk=37.2+273.15 =310.4K |
Energy formula: | Work= Force x Distance |
Kinetic Energy: Examples? | energy of motion working out car driving on a road water flowing over a dam |
Potential Energy: Examples? | based on the position of an object or by the chemical composition of a substance a compressed spring chemical bonds in gasoline, coal, or food water at the top of a dam |
Energy as heat: | energy associated with the movement of particles the faster the particles move, the greater the heat or thermal energy of the substance |
Units of Energy: | joule (J) kilojoules (kJ) calories (cal) kilocalories (kcal) |
Kilojoules to joules? | 1 kJ=1000 J |
Kilocalories to calories? | 1 kcal=1000 cal |
What do scientists use to measure energy values of substances? | calorimeter |
What is specific heat? | the amount of heat (q) that raised the temperature of exactly 1g of a substance by exactly 1C. |
What is the heat formula? | q=m x c x delta T |
When does a substance evaporate? | when liquid molecules on the surface gain sufficient energy to convert to a gas |
When does a substance condenses? | when gas molecules lose energy and form a liquid |
When is a liquid boiling? | all the liquid molecules acquire enough energy to form a gas (vaporize) bubbles of vapor appear throughou the liquid |
Melting occurs when | a substance changes from a solid to a liquid as its melting point (mp) temperature |
Freezing occurs when | a substance changes from a liquid to a solid at its freezing point (fp) temperature |
Heat fusion for water is | 80. cal/g |
Boiling occurs when | a substance changes from liquid to a gas at its boiling point (bp) temperature |
Condensing occurs when | a substance changes from a gas to a liquid at its condensation point (cp) temperature |
Water has a freezing (melting) point at | 0 C |
Water has a boiling (condensation) point at | 100 C |
