Q

What is physical change

A

Any change in matter that does not destroy the identity of a substance, nor change its characteristic chemical property

17
Q

State the 5 physical combination

A

mixtures, solutions, emulsions, suspensions, alloys

18
Q

What is chemical change

A

Any change of matter that results in the identity of the original substance or substances being lost, and the new substance or substances with new properties being produced; this involves only the outermost “shell” or “energy level” of electrons.

19
Q

What are some examples of change is chemical change

A

Combining Reactions: burning, rusting, tarnishing, synthesis

  1. Decomposing Reactions: decay, hydrolysis, electrolysis, etc.
20

A

Atom

23
Q

With what unit do we measure atoms and subunits

A

Daltons (amu)

24
Q

Which atom has no neutrons

A

Hydrogen

25
Q

What is a radioactive isotope

A

In which a nucleus decays spontaneously giving off particles and energy

26
Q

WhAt is half life

A

Time it takes for 50% of parent isotope to decay.

27
Q

Does temp, pressure and environmental factor effect half life

A

No

28
Q

What is radiometric dating

A

Scientist measure the ratio of different isotope and calculate how many half lives has passed since the organism has been fertilized.
