Chapter 3 Chemistry
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Democritus | As early as 400 B.C. He believed that everything was made up of smaller particles called Atoms. |
| Atomic Theory in the late 1700s | Chemist believed that elements could not be broken down by regular chemical needs. They also believed that elements could combine to form new compounds. |
| The study of matter in the 1790s | It was revolutionizing which led to the discovery of several atomic laws |
| The Law of Conservation of Mass | States that matter cannot be created or destroyed |
| No matter how pure a _________ __________ is prepared, it is still made up of a ___________ __________ of ________________. | chemical compound, fixed proportion, elements |
| __________ can form more than ___ compound | Elements, 1 |
| Carbon Dioxide & Carbon Monoxide are both made up of ___________ | Carbon |
| John D, Dalton | An english school teacher during 1808. proposed a theory for the Law of Conservation of mass |
| First Law of Dalton's Atomic Theory? | All Matter is composed of ultimately small particles called atoms. |
| Second Law of Dalton's Atomic Theory? | Atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, & other properties. Atoms of different elements differ in size, mass, & other properties |
| Third Law of Dalton's Atomic Theory? | Atoms cannot be subdivided, created, or destroyed |
| Fourth Law of Dalton's Atomic Theory? | Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole number ratios to form chemical compounds. |
| Fifth Law of Dalton's Atomic Theory? | In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated, or rearranged |
| The Law of Conservation of Mass According to John Dalton | Explained by the fact that atoms are simply rearranged or separated during chemical reactions. |
| The Law of Definite Proportion results from the fact that: | A given chemical compound is always composed of the same combination of atoms |
| The Law of Multiple Proportions states that: | A given chemical compound always contains the same ratio of atoms |
| Atom: | The smallest particle of an element that still contains the element’s properties |
