Matter and energy

TermDefinition
Matter Anything that is composed of atoms or a combination of atoms, must have mass and occupy volume
Homogeneous Homo=same Uniform composition
Heterogeneous Hetero=different Varying composition
Pure substances Composed of a single type of particle throughout (atoms, molecules, or ions)
What are the two different types of properties Chemical and Physical
Elements composed of only one type of atom (cannot be decomposed)
Allotrope Different forms of the same element, They have different properties because of different structures
Monatomic Consisting of one atom
Diatomic Consisting of two of the same atom
Compounds Two or more elements that are chemically combined in a fixed ratio (liquids, solids, and gases look different in diagrams)
Mixtures A physical combination of more than one type of substance
Solvent The thing that doses the dissolving
Solute The thing that is dissolved
Filtration based on differences in particle size
Distillation Based on differences in boiling points
Paper chromatography Based on differences in attractive forces
Crystallization Based on differences in solubility level
Energy The ability to do work (Measured in Joules or Calories)
Calorie The amount of heat required to raise 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius (1 cal = 4.18 J)
Kinetic energy energy of motion
Potential energy Stored energy or energy due to position
Activation energy the energy required to start a reaction
Law of conversation of energy Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it is just transfered from one form to another
Exothermic reactions Release heat, (Potential energy decreases), Energy is written as an end product
Endothermic reactions Absord heat (Potential energy increases), Energy is a reactant
Temperature The measure of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance
How to convert Kelvin to Celsius (Vice Versa) K = C + 273
How to convert Farenheit to Celsius (Vice Versa) F = 1.8(C) + 32
Boiling point of water in Celsius 100
Boiling point of water in Farenheit 212
Boiling point of Water in Kelvin 373
Melting point of water in Celsius 0
Melting point of water in Kelvin 273
Melting point of water in Farenheit 32
Absolute zero The point where there is no movement in the particles
Solid Particles are close together in a fixed geometric pattern, have a definite volume and shape, exhibits vibrational motion
Liquid Particles are randomluy arranged but still pretty close together (definite volume but no definite shape), Vibrational, rotational, and translational motion
Gas Particles are randomly arranged and far apart, (no definite volume or definite shape)
Super cooled liquid Appear to be solid but have no set crystal pattern Ex: Glass
Endothermic reactions Melting and Boiling
Exothermic reactions Freezing and Condesation
Sublimation The change of a solid directly to a gas
Deposition The change of a gas directly to a solid
heat capacity of water 4.18 J/g Celsius
When to use Q = MC^T When there is a change in temperature
When to use Q = MHf When it mentions melting or freezing
When to use Q = MHv When is mentions evaporation or condensing
Solid lines Phase boundaries between solid, liquid, and gas
Triple point A specific temperature and pressure at which all three phases of matter can exist simultaneously together in equilibrium
Critical point The last temperature at which gas can be liquefied
"Normal" Standard pressure

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.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
