Ch 2,4 P.Chem

QuestionAnswer
What is Scientific Notation System for expessing very large, large or small # of compact manner ex: 1,500,000=(1.5x1,000,0000=1.5X10^6
What is Standard Form 10x10x10x10x10x10=10^6
How to convert from whole numbers to scientific notation? moved decimal point LEFT=POSITIVE moved decimal point RIGHT=NEGATIVE
What is precision estabilised certain conventions for differnt degrees
What is significant figure (sig fig) all the digits known with certainty (those indiciated by the marking on the measurement device)Pand first uncertain or estimated digit (one digit past the smalled marking on the measureing device)
What are the Rules for deciding measurement: 1. ALL non zeros are sig 2. sandwiched (or embedded) zeros 3.leading zeros 4. trailing zeros
How should you round with decimals in Chem less then 5=stay same greater than 5 round up 1
What are combining numbers Add & Subtract= align decimal Multiple & Divide: Count sigs in each number being M/D then limit amount of sig figures lowest count ex: 3.865x105.93=4.094.1945(reduced to 4 sig)
What is the international system of units? a set measurement for basic units (length, mass, time) in order for chemist understand one another internationally
What are the basic units(fundamental units of SI) see chem notes
What are derived units? combinations of SI basic units can be multiplied and divided
What is voume? the amount of space that a substance occupies and defying geometrically as LXWLH
What is energy? the ability to do work (S or 1kg, m^2/S^2)
What is density? Mass of object divided by volume absorbed amount of matter contained in given amount of space d=m/v or KG/m^3
What are the accepted units? accepted for journals and papers not SI, degree, minute, hour
What is the metric system? decimal system of units for mass, length, time and other physical quantities (multiples of 10 1km=1000m)
What is thermal energy? form of energy associated with the motion of small particles of matter hot or cold
What is temperature? Measure of the intensity of thermal energy or how hot system is regardless of size c=celceis k=kelvin F=farhenheit
What does abundance mean? The elements are widely in abudance.Inthe universie as a whole, the most common element is Hydrogen(about 1020 atoms)
What is eultopication? When large bacterial concentrations and oxygen content dropped causing fish to die in large #'s ex:detergent w/phosphous harming animal life
What is a chemical symbol? Used to reresent atoms and elements,, the code for the chemical element The first letter must be deverived from the name, the second depends on where it comes frome Fe= Iron NOT IR=/iron
What is are chemical formula? depicted molecues as well as compospition of compounds
PWhpat is the law conversation of matter? if atoms of neither created nor destroyed during change then the toal masss of matter present when matter change from one type to another will remain constand
What is law of constant compositon or definit properites? all samples of pure compound contain the same elements in the same proportion by mass - the # of atoms of the elements in a given compound always exists in the same ration is constant with observaitons
What is law of multiple proportion? two elements react to form more than one compound, a liked mass of element with react when mass of the elements in a ration of small, whole numbers
What is a Compound? distance substance that contains two more elements chemically combined in a definite proportion by mass
What is molecule? smallest unchanged individual unit of a comppount formed by the union of two or more atoms
What is the chemical formula? expression that shows the lements ina compount and the relative porportions of elements
What is a polyatomic ion? certain croups of atoms binded together to form one unit
What is a molecular formula? shows the kids and number of atoms present in moleculs of compount arrangement of element form
What are Daltons atomic theroy? Atom is not "indivisible" something smaller sub atomic particle made up of proton, neurtron,electron charge
What is the emperical formula shows the elements ina compount in their lowest whole-number ration emperical CH20 (C6PH12O6)
What is a ionic compound? type of chemical link formed through the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, such as in sodium chloride (table salt).
What is a cation? cat-eye-ion. positve charge
What is a anion? an-eye-ion, negative charge
What is an atom? smallest piece of element that maintins the identiy of element
What are electrons? tiny subatomic particle with regular chargen (e-)
What is a proton? subatomic particle with pplus charge P+
What is a neutron? some mass as proton, no charge N-
What is a atomic number? number of protons is so important identiy of an atom
What are isotopes? atoms of some elemement (some are p+) with differnt neutrons
What is a mass number? sum of number protons and neutrons
What is periodic table order of increasing atomic number arranged in a specific
What are elements pure substance that makes up all other matter so each one is given unique name
What is atomic number? the number of protons in an atom , all atoms of a element have the same number of protons and every elements has differnt of pprotons
What are neutral atoms? Atoms are neutral in electiral charge becuase they have same number of negative electrons as postivive protons. Therefor the atomic # of an atom. How many electrons an atom is determins atoms chem prop
What is a mass number? atom is the total number of protons in neurons
What is radioactive decay? having too few neutrons relive to protons results in unstable or radioactive nuculous that will sooner or later breat down to more stable form?
What are ionic compounds? chemical formulus called ionic bimulas, only formed between one OR two anions ONLY -proper ionic formula has a cation and anion writing form= total pos=total neg
What is a monatomic ion? loose or gain electrion
What is a momoatomic anion? for naming ions- use stem of name and add suffix "ide" plus "ion" ex: cl=chloride ion, N=nitride ion using roman numberals for ion charges
What are ionic compounds? aka ionic bimulas and are never formed between two cations only; made of positively and negatively charged ions held together by strong electrical forces, typically formed when metals transfer electrons to non-metals.
What is a monatomic ion Lose or gain electron
What is a momotamic anion for naming ions, use stem name and add suffix "ide" >ion , using roman numberals for ion charges
