BASIC CHEMISTRY Flashcards
Anything that occupies space and has mass
Matter
Is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work or to produce heat
Energy
It has no mass but can be measured and it drives all the chemical reactions in the body
Energy
Plants extract__&___from the atmosphere which becomes the building block biomatter
Carbon dioxide and nitrogen
Fundamental substance composing of matter
Elements
Building block of elements a particular element has a unique physical and chemical property
Atoms
It is the denser inner core of the atoms
Nucleus
Combination of two or more atoms of the same element help together by chemical bonds
Molecule
Two or more different atoms are bound together
Compound
This type of mixture visibly portray different parts or phases of the mixture
Heterogeneous mixture
It is a type of mixture that do not portray any different part or phases of the mixture
Homogenous mixture
A special mixture form when a material dissolves in water
Solution
Homogeneous mixture of two or more component
Solution
Heterogeneous mixture that appear milky or translucent
Colloids
Heterogeneous mixture with large often visible solutes
Suspension
These are charged particles
Positively charged
Negatively charged
It is an ions dissolved in solution
Ions
Cat ions
Anions
Electrolytes
Chemical union of two or more atoms
Bonds
Electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another
Ionic bond
Electrons are shared by the atoms
Covalent bond
Hydrogen atoms already linked covalently to one electronegative atom is attracted by another electronegative atom
Hydrogen bond
Two or more substances react to produce a single new substance
Synthesis
Reaction where a more complex molecule breaks down to form two or more simpler products
Decomposition
Double displacement or replacement reaction is also called as
Metathesis reaction
The two compounds exchange ions to produce two new compounds
Double displacement reaction
