Ch. 7 Fire Flashcards
Study of substance that contain carbon.
Organic Chemistry
Science that deals with the composition, structures, and properties of matter and how matter changes under different conditions.
Chemistry
The study of substances that do not contain the element carbon (C), but may contain the element hydrogen (H).
Inorganic Chemistry
Gasoline, plastics, synthetic fabrics, pesticides, and fertilizers. Not flammable and will not burn because they do not contain carbon. Are not and have never been alive.
Inorganic Substances
Metals, minerals, glass, pure water, and air. These products are manufactured from gas and oil, which are the remains of plants and animals. Flammable and will burn.
Organic Substances
All living things, whether plants or animals, contain ______.
Carbon
Why is it important to for an esthetician to study chemistry?
- To be able to use professional products effectively and safely as every product in a salon and spa contains some type of chemical.
- To learn how to layer products in services and know how the skin may react with products and services.
- To troubleshoot and solve common problems that may be encountered with esthetic services.
The simplest form of matter; cannot be broken down into a simpler substance without loss of identity.
Element
Any substance that occupies space and has mass (weight).
Matter
Each _________ is identified by a letter or symbol, such as O for oxygen, C for carbon, H for hydrogen, N for Nitrogen, and S for sulfur.
Element
Solid, liquid, and gas.
States of matter
Ice, brushes, chair, are examples of a _________. Rigid fixed shape and volume.
Solid
Water, cleansers, serums, are examples of _______. Definite volume but takes shape of container.
Liquids
Steams/vapor, propane, ozone, are examples of _______. No fixed volume or shape; takes shape and volume of container.
Gases
The smallest chemical components (often called particles) of an element that still retains the properties of that element. The particles from which all matter is composed.
Atoms
_______ consist of smaller particles; protons, which have a positive electrical charge; neutrons, with a neutral charge; and electrons, with a negative charge. The number of protons in an _______ equals the number of neutrons.
Atoms
Physical properties (of matter) are characteristics that can be determined without a chemical reaction and that do not cause a chemical change in the identity of a substance. Physical properties of matter include?
Color, odor, weight, density, specific gravity, melting point, boiling point, and hardness.
The addition of oxygen or the loss of hydrogen, creates a chemical change in the identity of the substance. To combine or cause a substance to combine with oxygen. (ie; iron changed to rust, wood to ash)
Oxidation
A ______ ______is a change in the form or physical properties of a substance without the formation of a new substance. Solid ice undergoes a _____ _____ when it melts into liquid water.
Physical Change
A ______ ______ is a change in the chemical composition of a substance, in which a new substance or substances are formed having properties different from the original. (Iron into rust, wood into ash), oxidation is an example of a chemical reaction that causes a _____ _____. (sugar in grapes is chemically converted into ethyl alcohol)
Chemical Change/reaction
Ranging from 0-14. 0 being most acidic, 7 being neutral, and 14 being most alkaline.
pH Scale
How much more alkaline is 9 than 7?
Multiply by 10’s. So the answer would be 10x10=100
