Unit 5 chem quiz

TermDefinition
Absolute Zero The lowest possible temperature; the temperature at which all particle movement stops; -273°C or 0 K.
Avogadro's Law Gases at the same temperature, pressure, and volume have the same number of molecules or particles.
Boiling Point The temperature at which a liquid undergoes a phase change from liquid to gas; the temperature at which the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
Compound Pure substance composed of two or more different elements chemically combined.
Cooling Curve Diagram showing phase changed for a substance as it loses energy goes from gas phase all the way to solid phase.
Element Pure substance composed of one species of atoms.
Energy The capacity to do work.
Evaporation Phase change from liquid to gas.
Extensive (property) A physical property that depends on sample size or amount.
Heat Form of energy measured in Joules (J).
Heat of Fusion Energy required to change 1 g of a substance from solid to liquid.
Heat of Vaporization Energy required to change 1 g of a substance from liquid to gas.
Heat Transfer Energy transferred from a substance with more (hotter) to a substance with less (cooler).
Heating Curve Diagram showing phase changes for a substance as it gains energy and goes from solid phase all the way to gas phase.
Heterogenous A sample of matter consisting of more than one pure substance more than one phase.
Homogenous A sample of matter consisting of more than one pure substance with properties that do not vary within the sample
Intensive (property) A physical property that does NOT depend on sample size or amount (Ex: melting point, boiling point, density).
Kinetic energy Energy of motion; energy associated with a change in temperature.
Kinetic Molecular Theory (KMT) A model used to explain the behavior of gases in terms of the motion of their particles.
Lattice The unique crystal structure associated with any given solid.
Matter Anything that has mass and takes up space.
Melting Point The temperature at which a phase change between solid and liquid occurs.
Mixture Two or more pure substance PHYSICALLY combined; a combination of two or more pure substances that can be separated by physical means.
Normal Boiling Point The temperature at which a phase change between liquid and gas occurs at 1 ATM or 101. 3 kPA; the temperature at which the vapor pressure of liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
Potential (AKA Physical) Energy Energy of position; energy associated with a phase change.
Sublimation Phase change from solid to gas.
Vapor Pressure The upward pressure of a vapor in equilibrium with its liquid.
Deposition Phase change from gas to solid.
Mixture Two or more pure substances physically combined.

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.
