Matter classifications and important vocab

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Front
Back
Matter   anything that has mass and volume  
🗑
Mass   is a measure of the amount of matter in an object or substance  
🗑
Energy   the ability to induce change  
🗑
Heat   the transfer of energy between two objects at different temperatures (from hotter to colder)  
🗑
Temperature   is a measurement of the average kinetic E of the particles in an object or substance  
🗑
Physical Properties   are those that can be measured or observed without altering or changing the chemical composition of the object or substance  
🗑
Chemical Properties   are those that can only be measured or observed by inducing a change to the chemical composition of the object or substance  
🗑
Quantitative Properties   are those that have magnitude. Require a measuring instrument  
🗑
Qualitative Properties   are those that do not require a magnitude  
🗑
Intensive Properties   are those properties of an object or substance that are independant of sample size  
🗑
Extensive Properties   are properties that are dependant on the sample size  
🗑
Chemistry   the study of the structure, properties, and composition of substances and the changes they undergo.  
🗑
Heterogeneous Matter   matter that doesn't have a uniform composition. In which different phases can be observed.  
🗑
Solutions   uniform matter composed of two or more components, it is constant within the sample but is not representative of other solutions.  
🗑
Pure Substances   matter wiht a constant composition regardless of the sample. Can only be purified by chemical methods.  
🗑
Compounds   matter composed of two or more elements chemically bonded together. Can only be purified by chemical mehtods.  
🗑
Elements   purest form of matter. Cannot be purified further.  
🗑
Physical Changes   changes that do not alter the chemical composition of the object or substance.  
🗑
Chemical Changes   changes that alter the chemical compostition of the object or substance.  
🗑
Evidence of a chemical reaction   change in color, change in tmeperature, evolution of a gas, precipitation of a solid, production of light, change in odor.  
🗑
The five chemical reactions   synthesis, decomposition, hydrocarbon combustion, single displacement, double displacement.  
🗑
Synthesis Reactions   ones where the products are more complex than the starting materials.  
🗑
Decomposition Reactions   ones where the products are simpler than the starting materials.  
🗑
Hydrocarbon combustion reactions   ones when a C+H containing compound reacts with O to make CO2+H2O.  
🗑
Single displacement reactions   when an element reacts with a compound and displaces a like element tomake a new compound.  
🗑
Double displacement reactions   when two compounds react and ions are displaced amking two new compounds.  
🗑
The Law of Conservation of Mass   the total mass of all substances in a chemical or physical system remains constant throughout the process.  
🗑
Law of Definite proportions   the amss ratio in a given compound is constant.  
🗑
Dalton's 4 postulates   All matter composed of atoms. All atoms of the same element are identical and different from other elements. Compounds made of combinations of different elements in integer ratios. Atoms are not modified in chemical reactions, only rearranged.  
🗑
Law of Multiple Proportions   when two elements combine to make more than one compound, if the mass of one element is held constant the ratio of the mass of the other elementin the compounds will be a simple integer ratio.  
🗑


   

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.
