physical science H

final exam part 2

QuestionAnswer
synthesis? Na+Cl----> NaCl
Decomposition? NaCl---> Na + Cl
single displacement? NaCl + Li---> LiCl + Na
Double Displacement? NaCl + LiBr----> NaBr + LiCl
Exothermic reaction? energy in released
Endothermic reaction? energy is brought in
state the law of conservation of mass? matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction
How can the type of bond(ionic or covalent) determine the conductivity, boiling and melting point? boiling point- higher in a ionic bond melting point- higher in a ionic bond conductivity- ionic is better
what affects how fast or slow substances dissolve? stirring, pressure, surface area, temperature
Concentrated solution? having a high volume of solute dissolved in a solvent
how does a concentrated solution affect the conductivity and melting point of that solution? conductivity- increases, better conductor of electricity melting point- decreases
define solids? definite shape and definite volume atoms are fixed close together
define liquids? No definite shape but definite volume atoms are close together
define Gases? No definite shape or no definite volume(fills space available) Atoms rarely together
change from solid to liquid? it melts
change from liquid to gas? it evaporates
what are polymers? long chain of repeating monomers
how are proteins, carbohydrates and lipids important to our everyday lives? proteins- build and repair tissue carbohydrates- gives energy lipids- store energy
define atom? tiny particles
define molecule? neutral particles formed as a result of electron sharing
define element? if all the atoms in a sample are the same
define compound? two or more elements that are chemically combined in a fixed ratio
what is a mixture a material made up of two or more substances
what is a homogeneous mixture? always evenly spread throughout(never settles)
what is a heterogeneous mixture? unevenly spread throughout(trail mix)
how does a ionic bond form? by loosing or gaining electrons
how does a covalent bond form? by sharing electrons
Physical properties? color, shape, size, odor, behavior
define physical change? when you change the size, shape, etc.
define chemical change? when one substance changes into another
Iron rusts, milk sours, food digested are? chemical changes
ice melting, evaporation, sugar dissolves in water, and density are? physical changes
define hydrocarbon carbons just bonded with hydrogen's
compare and contrast longitudinal and transverse waves both transfer energy and the direction of the medium is different
seismic waves travel through ground
water waves move through water
sound waves travel through air
Electromagnetic waves don't need a medium
the EM spectrum velocity- constant frequency- increase to the right wavelength- decreases to the right energy increases to the right
concave lens bend the light outward
convex lens bring the light into a focal point
what wave characteristics allows us to see objects? reflection
An echo is the ______ of sound waves. reflection
the ability of waves to bend around objects is called________. defraction
__________ is the bending of the wave by the change in density of the medium refraction
the Doppler effect describes the following scenario: As a source of sound moves closer, the sound wave appears to... increase in pitch
constructive interference waves are added together
destructive interference wave that cancel each other out
mechanical energy energy created by the physical movement
electrical energy when you plug something in outlet
chemical energy food we eat

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.
