Chemistry final Study

TermDefinition
Atom The smallest piece of matter that has the chemical property of that element
Half Life The amount of time it takes half the atoms present to decay.
Intensive Property Size of the sample does not matter.
Extensive Property Size of the sample does matter.
Neutron Charge none
Charge= protons-electrons
Protons +
Electrons _
Isotopes Atoms of the same element with a different number of nuetrons
Father Of the Periodic Table Demetri Mendeleev
Group 1 of Periodic Table is Called? Akali Metals
Group 2 of periodic table is called? Alkali earth metals
Group 3-12 of Periodic Table is called? Transition Metals
Group 17 of Periodic Table is called? Halogens
Group 18 of periodic table is called? Noble gases
Top row of F on the periodic fable is called? Lanthanides
Bottom row of F on the periodic table is called? Actinides
Where are Valence Electrons Outermost shell
Ionization energy The energy needed to remove the outermost electron
Anions Negatively charged, gain electrons
Cations Positively charged lose electrons
Radioactive Atom The nucleus of the atom spontaneously breaks down.
Alpha Particle Slow moving, 2 protons 2 neutrons
Beta Particle Faster, looks like an electron
Gamma Fastest, energy
Beta Decay Neutron breaks down to become a proton and an electron, rapidly moving electron as product, the beta particle.
Fission when a heavy nucleus breaks into two smaller ones
Fusion when two smaller nuclei bind into one larger one
What is the definition of chain reaction? When neutrons continue to hit other unstable nuclei they continue to break apart.
Draw Back of Fission Chemical waste
Draw back of fusion lack of effciency
what is the equation Einstien used related to energy and mass E=mc²
Definition of nuclear binding energy the energy that is released when two nuclei join or break apart
definition of decay series steps for radioactive element to become stable
compounds and elements are also known as? pure substances
a homogenous mixture is also know as? a solution
What are the 3 states of matter solid, liquid, gas
define compound two or more elements bonded together
define mixture separate stuff together but not bonded
What are the two types of separation? Physical and chemical
how do you find volume? Length x Width x Height=volume
define dependent variable what is being measured
define independent variable what is being changed
how should a hypothesis be written If then because statement
what is the control variable its the variable that is always kept the same
What are the common steps of the scientific method hypothesis, question, conclusion, experiment
In oxidation numbers -1 and -2 are electrons gained or lost? gained
in oxidation numbers +1 and +2 are electrons lost or gained lost
Define daughter nucleus what is left after decay
what number allows us to know what element we are dealing with? atomic number
what is the equation to find atomic number M-N=AN
What is the equation for atomic mass P+N=M
what is the equation to find charge E-P=charge
What are the trends of atomic radius on the p. table Going up atoms get smaller, going down atoms get larger because you add shells
what are the trends of ionization on the p. table going down atoms larger atoms are easier to remove, going down across atoms are harder to remove
what numbers do you need to know to balance nuclear equations? atomic and mass numbers
what are the six phase changes? Freezing, melting, condensation, boiling, sublimation, deposistion
What causes the plateaus on the heating curve phases changes because energy is moving the atoms instead of heating them.
why is science loopy and not linear because there is no set order of steps.
define nuclear decay lose an alpha or beta particle to form a more stable atom
Where does energy in a nuclear reaction come from binding energy
How many significant figures does 6.2 have 2
How many significant figures does 5.00 have 1
how many sig figs does 4.36789 6

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.
