4.1-4.4 Quiz Flashcards
What elements are diatomic in nature?
7 up or BrINClHOF
Bromine
Iodine
Nitrogen
Chlorine
Hydrogen
Oxygen
Fluorine
Typical evidence that a chemical change has occurred
- Production of heat or light
- Formation of a gas
- Formation of a precipitate
- Color change
Homogeneous Mixture
visibly indistinguishable parts( hard to tell if things are different)
Pure Substance
Substance with one constant composition
Physical Change
When a substance undergoes a change in properties but not a change in composition. The atoms are not rearranged and they are usually reversible.
A student added methanol and dry sand together and noticed that bubbles emerged from the mixture
when stirred until the mixture was completely wet. Do the bubbles produced indicate that a chemical
reaction occurred?
No the air trapped in the sand is producing bubbles.
What is important when drawing a representation of aqueous solutions?
- sometimes only show the solute particles
- ions should be dissociated and include charge.
- Solvent (water) particles when included should be oriented with the dipoles in the correct direction
to maximize attractions and minimize repulsions with
solvent and solute particles.
What are ways that mixtures can be separated?
Filtration, Distillation, Chromatography
Chemical Change
When substances are transferred into new substances typically with different compositions.
How do you write an overall ionic equation?
Break every single aqueous thing up and keep any solids together
Common types of physical change
- Formation or separation of mixtures
- Phase changes
Practice determining if something is physical or chemical change
- 4.1 we do
- 4.4 you do #2
How do you know if a precipitate has formed when writing the balanced equations?
Either use the solubility chart or if they do not say a precipitate has formed do not assume it has
What bonds/forces are broken during a physical change?
Intermolecular forces
Element
substance that cannot be decomposed into
simpler substances by chemical or physical means
