| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Chemistry | the study of substances and the changes they undergo |
| central science | overlaps all other sci |
| energy | the capacity to do work |
| work | the capacity to move an obj. over a distance against a resisting force |
| forms of energy | kinetic, radiant, and potential |
| KE | energy of motion |
| mechanical energy | KE |
| thermal energy | KE |
| random internal motion of particles | KE |
| radiant | energy from sun |
| potential | stored energy |
| energy possessed by object because of position or arrangement of particles | PE |
| measurement of energy | calorie or joule |
| 1 cal = | 4.184 J |
| law of conserv. of energy | in any process, energy is neither created nor destroyed |
| fossil fuels | coal and petroleum and natural gas |
| measurement of temp. | celcius and farenheit |
| kelvin scale | SI unit of temp. (K) |

| absolute zero | point at which the motion of particles of matter ceases |
| matter | anything that has mass and volume |
| states of matter | solid liquid gas plasma |
| chemical changes alter | the identity of a substance |
| physical changes alter | looks but not identity |
| type of change where new substance is created with new properties | chemical change |
