Q

What happens when you heat a solid?

A

It vibrates more, as it get more energy, and can expand slightly, eventually it will melt

Q

What happens when you heat and cool a liquid?

A

When you heat, it will get faster and expand slightly, eventually it could evaporate and become a gas. If you cool, it will freeze and become solid

Q

What is wrong with the particle theory model?

A

in reality, the particles aren’t solid and they aren’t spheres - they’re atoms, ions, molecules. It doesn’t give you an idea about the size of the particle or the space between them. There are no forces between particles

16
Q

What is a physical change?

A

When a substance changes from one state to another, no new substances are made, they are reversible

17
Q

What are chemical changes?

A

During a chemical reaction, bonds between atoms break and change places, so they rearrange to form different chemicals called the products

18
Q

Who was John Dalton?

A

He described atoms as solid spheres, and different spheres made different chemicals

19
Q

Who was J J Thompson?

A

He concluded that there were even smaller negatively charged particles called electrons in the plum pudding model. This has a positive mass dotted with negative electrons

20
Q

Describe the Rutherford experiment and what happened

A

they fired positively charged alpha particles at a gold sheet, some of the of the particles deflected

21
Q

What was the conclusion from the gold foil experiment

A

that there was a positive nucleus in the centre of electrons and there was space between them

22
Q

Who was Niels Bohr?

A

He suggested that electrons were fixed in shells, and had a fixed energy

23
Q

Why do scientists share ideas?

A

So other scientists can develop and test and improve theories

24
Q

What are the 3 subatomic particles, their relative mass and charge

A

Proton (1 & +1), Neutron (1 & 0), electron (0.0005 & -1)

25
Q

what is the radius of a nucleus

A

between 10 -15 and 10 -14

26
Q

what is the radius of an atom

A

about 10 -10

27
Q

What are molecules

A

they are a substance made of 2 or more atoms either the same or different elements

28
Q

What is a nanoparticle

A

are bigger than simple molecules and typically made of around 100 atoms and range from 1 to 100nm in size

29
Q

what are the mass and atomic numbers

A

mass no. - total number of protons and neutrons

atomic no. - number of protons and electrons

30
Q

How do you find the amount of neutrons

A

mass - atomic number

31
Q

Ions form when they gain or lose ____?

A

electrons

32
Q

What are isotopes

A

atoms that have the same number of protons but different number of electrons
