Question
Answer
Accuracy   the extent to which a given measurement agrees with the standard value for that measurement  
🗑
Precision   exactness; to arrive at an estimate with precision you can be precise but not accurate  
🗑

Physical Property   color, state (solid, liquid or gas), density and melting and boiling points. the property of a substance without changing it  
🗑
Solubility   the amount of a substance that dissolves in a given volume of solvent at a given temperature  
🗑
Malleability   degree to which shaping is possible  
🗑
Conductivity   the ability of a solution to conduct electricity; this property indicates the pressure of ions  
🗑
Electrolyte   a material that dissolves in water to give a solution that conducts an electric current  
🗑
pH   a measure of the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution  
🗑
Starch Test   adding two drops of iodine solution. if starch is present, a blue black color will develop  
🗑
Hydrate   a solid compound containing water molecules combined in a definite ratio as an integral part of a crystal  
🗑
Dehydration   a chemical reaction that involves the loss of water from the reacting molecule  
🗑
Anhydrate   a compound that can be considered as derived from another compound by subtracting the molecules of water  
🗑
Crucible   a refractory container used for metal, glass and pigment production  
🗑
Precipitate   a solid that forms out of solution. to separate (a substance) in solid form a solution, as by means of a reagent  
🗑
Alum   a crystalline solid, aluminum potassium sulfate, used in medicine as an astringency and styptic, in dying and tanning and in many technical processes  
🗑
Filtration   a method for separating the components of a mixture containing a solid and a liquid  
🗑
Filtrate   to filter; liquid that has been passed through a filter  
🗑
Titration   a technique in which one solution is used to analyze another  
🗑
Indicator   a chemical that changes color and is used to mark the end point of a titration  
🗑

🗑
Secondary Standard   lack at least one of the criteria to make them primary standards  
🗑
Titrant   the solution which is delivered in incremental amounts from the burrette it can be an acid or a base  
🗑

🗑
Vitamin C   ascorbic acid HC6H7O6  
🗑
Basic   a solution that contains excess OH-  
🗑

🗑
Wavelength   the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs in a wave  
🗑
Frequency   the number of waves (cycles) per second that pass a given point in space  
🗑
Photon   a quantum of electromagnetic radiation  
🗑
Planck's Constant   the constant relating the change in energy for a system to the frequency of the electromagnetic radiation absorbed or emitted  
🗑
Spectrophotometer   device for measuring light  
🗑
