Chapter 1 - Matter and Energy Flashcards
Physical Change
The composition of matter does not change; Only the state changes. Ex: melting, boiling, freezing
Chemical Change
The composition of matter changes. Ex: Burning
Exothermic Process
Releases heat; Condensation, freezing, and deposition
Endothermic Process
Absorbs heat; vaporization, melting, and sublimation
Difference between a pure substance and a mixture.
Pure substance is an element or a compound. A mixture is either homogeneous (air) or heterogenous (choc. chip cookies)
Physical Properties vs Chemical Properties
Physical: You can see it without changing the composition (ex: density)
Chemical: You have to change the chemical identity (ex: flammability)
Extensive vs Intensive Properties
Extensive: Dependent on quantity (ex: mass)
Intensive: Independent on quantity (ex: boiling point)
3 Types of Separation
Filtration, Distillation, Chromatography (TLC)
Filtration
Separates solid-liquid mixture or solid-gas mixture
Distillation
Separates liquid-liquid mixtures with different boiling points
Chromatography (TLC)
separates liquid-liquid mixture of different solubilities in different medium
Precision
How close the measurements are the other
Accuracy
How close the measurements are to the true value
Density
Intensive Property; D=m/v
°F to °C
°C = (°F - 32) / 1.8
