8 Science 1st SEM Flashcards
Well
Pumps water out of zone of aeration
Aquifer
A body of rock or sediment in the water
Spring
Water that flows through cap rock
Water table
Dividing both zones
Zone of aeration
Zone of saturation
Zone of aeration
Top zone in an aquifer
Zone of saturation
Below water table and zone of aeration
Watershed
Drainage basin
Water system
Many waters leading into a big body of water
Permeable surfaces
Lets water pass through
Impermeable
Does NOT let water pass through
Condensation
Water going up into the atmosphere
Evaporation
Liquid to gas
Percolation
Water in roots
What powers the water cycle?
Energy from sun
Some water quality measures
Wells and dry wells
Surface currents in the ocean
Wind and sun
Solid
Define shape and volume
Liquid
Has no define shape
Has define shape
Gas
No define shape or volume
Compound
A pure substance
Physical properties/changes
Melting point, density, color
Chemical properties/change
Reacts w acid
Density
Ratio of a mass of substance to volume of a substance
Boiling point
Liquid to a vapor
Melting point
Solid becomes a liquid
Freezing point
At which a substance has tight monetary molecules
Condensation point
Boiling
Weight vs mass
Mass is not a measure of weight, it is the measure of how much something has
Endothermic
Heat entering a substance
Exothermic
Heat exiting
Equation for density
Mass divided by
Volume equals Density
Physical changes are…..
STATE changes
Chemical changes are…..
Reactivity
Atom
Smallest unit of life
Building blocks of life
Nucleus
Center part of atom
Proton
Positive charge
Neutron
No charge
Electron
Negative charge
Electron cloud
Region around nucleus and holds the electrons
Mass number
Sum of protons and and neutrons in nucleus
Atomic number
Number of only protons in nucleus
Ion
When electrons and protons are not equal
Isotope
Same number of protons not NEUTRONS
Atomic mass
Mass media f ate m expressed in atomic units
Metals
Conducts heat and electricity WELL
Non metals
Conducts heat and electricity POOR
Period
Horizontal row on periodic table
Group
Vertical group on periodic table
Covalent bond
Atoms share pair of electrons
Ionic bond
Elections are transferred
Valence electron
Determines the atoms properties
Where is the atomic number located on and table square?
Top
Location of atomic mass of table square
Very bottom
Lewis dot structure
Dots around the
EXAMPLE: H and dots around it
Law of conservation of mass
Mass cannot be created nor destroyed in a chemical of physical change.
Reactants
Start of a reaction
Products
Ending part of a reaction
Chemical reaction
One or more substances creates another substance
Chemical formula
Chemical numbers and symbols to represent a substance
Exothermic reaction
Heat is RELEASED
EXITS
Endothermic reaction
Requires heat
Heat enters
Coefficient
Big number before the element
Subscript
Small number after element
Looks like a power
