Intro Things to know
chem and phys
Question | Answer |
---|---|
chemistry | the study of composition, structure, properties, and reactions of matter |
convection | transphers by currents with fluid. (boiling water, air current, heating of a room |
friction | a force that opposes the motion of objects that touc h as they move past each other( can transpher electrons through this) |
atomic number | number of protons(gives you number of electrons as well). gives you protons in an atom |
nutron | has no charge in found in the nucleus. subtromical particle |
density | the ratio of a material's mass to it's volume |
celcius | freezing point is zero, boiling point is 100 |
alloy | a mixture of two or more elements at least one which is metal, that has charecteristics properties of metals |
mass number | the sum of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus |
atomic mass unit | one twelth the mass of a carbon -12 atom(AMU) |
acid | a coumpound that produces hydronium when dissolved in water, a protondonor. |
farhenhit. | freezes at 32 degress, boils at 212 degress |
dissolving | a breakdown of cystal |
frequency | the number of complete cycles per unit of time for a periodic motion |
length | the straight line distance between two points |
base | a coumpound that produces hydroxide ions. When dissolved in water; a proton accepter. |
matter | has mass which encludes atoms and other particles |
physics | the study of matter and energy and the interactions between the two forces of motion |
barometer | instrument used to messure atmospheric pressure. (Uses water, air, and mecury) |
boiling | when vapor and pressure in equal to atmospheric pressure |
inertia | the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion |
ionic | kind of bonding where an atom shares its electrons as the other atom gains electrons when bonding. Is always metals with non-metals. |
compound | a substance that is made from 2 or more simpilier substances and can be broken down into simplier substance |
mass | the amount of matter in an object |
salt | ionic compound. formed when acids react with bases |
evaporations | happens when temperature is below substances boiling point |
covalent bonding | when they do not share atoms equally( is always non metals with non metals) |
weight | the force of gravity acting on an object |
gravity | the attraction between two any 2 objects because of their masses |
condinsation | the phase change in which a substance changes from a gas or vapor to a liquid. (think of clouds raining) |
radioactivity | the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus emits charged particles and energy( think of clouds setting of electricity or lighting) |
Galileo | studies how gravity produces constant acculation, moving objects not subject to friction would continue to move indefineity. |
Newton | built work on scientist. Came up with laws of motion. Law of Inerertia: a state of a motion of an object will not change as long as force acting on the object is zero 2nd Law: acceleration of an object is equal to the net force acting on it divided by o |
Einstein | law of relativity: came up with two ways to measure mass with same value |
Curie | discovered the radioactivity elements radium and polonium advance study of radio activity |
Law of Matter | matter cannot be created nor destroyed in an isolated system |
Chemical equations. | chemical reaction in which the reactions and products are expressed as formulas |
atomic mass | the electrons and protons added together( when subtracted will give you your neutrons) |
