TermDefinition
Physical properties can be measured of observed without changing the identity of the object. color, size, shape
Conductivity transfer energy (heat or electric)
Chemical properties describes a substance based on its ability to change into a new substance with different properties.
Flammability burn
Reactivity ability to react with something
Atoms basic unit from which all matter is made.
Nucleus protons and neutrons; positive
Cloud electrons; negative
Element pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances. only one type of particle oxygen gold carbon
Molecule 2 or more atoms held together by chemical bonds.
Compounds pure substance composed of two or more elements that are chemically combined elements must undergo a chemical change has its own characteristic properties can be broken down into simpler substances by means of a chemical change.
Mixtures combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combined. substances in mixture maintain their identity can be physically separated (filter; centrifuge; magnet)
Heterogeneous mixture in which you can see each substance
Homogeneous mixture in which you cannot see each substance
Measuring matter matter is anything that has volume and mass.
Volume amount of space something takes up. regular shape - l x w x h = cm3 irregular shape - graduated cylinder
Mass amount of mass something has.
Mass vs weight mass remains constant; use a triple beam balance to measure. weight is the gravitational force on an object; it changes depending on location; use a scale to measure.
Density how much mass in a given volume. D = m/v
Density and temperature Amount of substance does NOT affect density. Temperature DOES affect density. most matter becomes less dense as it becomes warmer. Density of water = 1.0 g/mL.
Characteristic property unique property that allows one to identify an element. Melting point, etc. Density Reactivity - the ability to react Conductivity - the ability to conduct heat or electricity
Physical change changing a physical property of a substance. It does NOT change the identity of the substance. Change of State of Matter - melting, freezing, evaporation, etc. Changes in shape or form - dissolving, crushing, distillation, filtration.
Chemical change process of changing a substance into a new substance. Tarnishing, burning, baking Chemical reactions - photosynthesis, cellular respiration.
Solid molecules are very close together has a definite shape and volume crystalline – orderly arrangement of molecules; repeating pattern ice diamond iron
Amorphous molecules are in no particular order rubber wax plastic
Liquid molecules are somewhat close together changes shape but not volume molecules slide past one another to conform to container
Surface tension characteristic property that creates an inward “pull” among the molecules of the liquid.
Viscosity characteristic property that is a resistance to flowing.
Gas molecules far apart changes both shape and volume Boyle’s Law for a fixed amount of gas at a given temperature, the volume of a gas increases as its pressure decreases volume decreases as its pressure increases.
Charles Law for a fixed amount gas at constant pressure, the volume of a gas increases as its temperature increases the volume of a gas decreases as its temperature decreases.
Plasma no definite shape or volume molecules have broken apart conduct electric currents lightning, fire, aurora borealis
Change of state conversion of a substance from one physical form to another Melting (melting point) solid changes to liquid molecules gain energy (move faster)
endothermic change energy is absorbed
Exothermic change Freezing (freezing point) liquid changes to solid molecules lose energy (move slower) exothermic change – energy is removed
Boiling liquid to gas at boiling point
Evaporation liquid to gas below the boiling point (perspiration; water disappearing)
Condensation (condensation point) gas changes to a liquid molecules lose energy (move slower) exothermic change – energy is removed
Sublimation solid changes to gas dry ice endothermic change – energy is added
Solution homogeneous mixture One substance dissolved into another
solute – solvent – the substance that is dissolved the substance that does the dissolving
salt water – chocolate milk – salt is the solute, water is the solvent chocolate is the solute, milk is the solvent
Temperature Use the solubility curve to determine the solubility of a compound. The solubility of most solids increases as the temperature gets higher.
Things that change solubility State of material also can increase solubility. Crushing the solute increases the amount of contact between the solute and solvent. Shaking causes solute particles to separate from one another and spread out more quickly

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.
