Question
Answer
Chemistry   Study of composition of matter and the changes it undergoes  
🗑
Matter   Anything that has mass and takes up space  
🗑
Pure Substance   Has fixed composition  
🗑
Pure Substance   Every sample has exactly same characterisitic, properties and composition  
🗑
Solid   Definite volume, definite shape  
🗑
Solid   Definite pattern to shape  
🗑
Solid   Held together by strong attractive forces  
🗑
Solid   Particles don't move much  
🗑
Solid   Particles packed together in relatively fixed positions  
🗑
Liquid   Definite volume, indefinite shape  
🗑
Liquid   Take shape of container  
🗑
Liquid   Particles close together but can move past one another  
🗑
Liquid   Particles move more rapidly than particles in a solid and causes them to flow b/c they temporarily overcome attractive forces  
🗑
Liquid   No pattern to shape  
🗑
Gas   Indefinite volume, indefinite shape  
🗑
Gas   expand to fill container & takes its shape  
🗑
Gas   Particles move quickly than particles in a liquid and at great distances from one another  
🗑
Gas   Has weak attractive forces  
🗑
Plasma   High-temp. state of matter in which atoms lose electrons  
🗑
Plasma   Found in fluorescent bulbs and the sun  
🗑
Physical Property   Characterisitic observed or measured w/out changing identity of substance  
🗑
Physical Property   Describes substance itself rather than how it can change into other substances  
🗑
Extensive Properties   Dependent on amt of substance present  
🗑
Extrinsic Properties   Dependent on amt of substance present  
🗑
Extensive Properties   Examples include length, volume and mass  
🗑
Extrinsic Properties   Examples include length, volume and mass  
🗑
Intensive Properties   Independent of amt of substance present  
🗑
Intrinsic Properties   Independent of amt of substance present  
🗑
Intensive Properties   Examples include color, density and smell  
🗑
Intrinsic Properties   Examples include color, density and smell  
🗑
Density   Physical property that is a ratio of mass of object to volume  
🗑
Density   units usually used are g/cm3 or g/mL  
🗑
Density   D = M/V  
🗑
Physical Change   Change in substance that doesn't involve change in identity of substance  
🗑
State Change   Physical change; substance changes from 1 physical state to another  
🗑
Phase Change   Physical change; substance changes from 1 physical state to another  
🗑
Chemical Property   Relates to substance's ability to undergo changes that transform it into different substances  
🗑
Chemical Property   Change where 1+ substance(s) converted into different substance(s)  
🗑
Chemical Change   Change where 1+ substance(s) converted into different substance(s)  
🗑
Reactants   Substance that reacts  
🗑
Products   Substance that's formed  
🗑
Reactants   On left side of equation  
🗑
Products   On right side of equation  
🗑
Filtration   Technique of separating heterogeneous mixtures by passing the mixture through a filter  
🗑
Filtration   Usually used to separate solid from liquid  
🗑
Distillation   Technique used to separate homogeneous liquid mixtures where the liquid mixture is boiled to produce vapor and then condensed again to liquid  
🗑
Distillation   Used for liquids w/ similar boiling points  
🗑
Chromatography   Method for separating homogeneous mixtures (such as ink)  
🗑
Chromatography   Separates mixtures into their different components  
🗑
Element   Made of only 1 kind of atom  
🗑
Element   Simplest forms of matter that can exist under normal laboratory conditions  
🗑
Atom   Smallest particle of element that retains the properties of that element  
🗑
Law of Conservation of Mass   In any chemical or physical change, mass isn't created or destroyed  
🗑
Law of Conservation of Mass   mass reactants = mass products  
🗑
Periodic Table   Tool used to organize elements into a grid of horizontal rows and vertical columns  
🗑
Crystallization   Technique used to separate mixtures that separates the components of a mixture based on the ability of each component to travel or be drawn across the surface of another material  
🗑


   

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.
