Question
Answer
Macroscopic   large enough to be seen with the naked eye  
🗑
Microscopic   small particles that can be seen onwith with the help of a microscope  
🗑
Particulate   atoms and molecules so small that are not visible even with an ordinary microscope  
🗑
Solids   have definite shape and definite volume  
🗑
Liquids   have no shap but definite volume  
🗑
Gases   have no definite shape or volume  
🗑
Melting Point   solids melt becoming a liquid. Temperature increases  
🗑
Boiling Point   liquid boils becoming a gas (vapor). Temperature increases  
🗑
Condensation Point   gases condense and become a liquid. Temperature decreases  
🗑
Freezing Point   Liquids freeze becoming a solid. Temperature decreases  
🗑
Sublimination Point   Solids vaporize becoming a gas. Temperature increase  
🗑
Phase Changes   the temperature at which the changes occur and the specific characteristic for each substance  
🗑
The Law of conservatrion of mass   that matter can be neither created nor destroyed. The total mass of products after we complete a chemical reaction must equal to the total amount of reactants  
🗑
First Law of Thermodynamics   states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed  
🗑
Law of conservation of energy   states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed however one form of energy can be converted to another. The total amount of energy in any system does not change  
🗑
Energy   capacity to do work or capacity to move matter  
🗑
Two forms of energy   Kinetic and Potential  
🗑
Kinetic Energy   energy in motion. KE=1/2mv(squared)  
🗑
Potential Energy   energy that is stored. capacity to more or cause motion.  
🗑
Two types of energy   Mechanical and Chemical  
🗑
Mechanical energy   is the kinetic energy possesed by moving objects. Light, heat, electrical, nuclear  
🗑
Chemical energy   is stored within chemical substances or processes. Energy is given off when chemical substances react.  
🗑
Calorie   the amount of heat or energy required to raise the temperature of 1g of water 1 degree C  
🗑
Heat   is a form of energy that most frequently accompanies chemical reactions. Measured in Joules or calories  
🗑
Temperature   measured in degrees but not a form of energy  
🗑
Specific Heat   is that amount of heat requried to raise the temperature of 1g of any substance substance by 1 degree C  
🗑
Kinetic Molecular Theory   theory of matter refering to motion of molecules, primarily gases as the temp, pressure or volume change. Constant, random, chaotic motion of molecules  
🗑
Molecule   is an aggregate of either identical or different atoms that are bonded together in a particular order by strong attractive forces  
🗑
Brownian Motion   the spontaneous but erratic movement of particles suspended in liquids or gases.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
