Q

indications that a chemical change is occuring?

A

color change
gas released
energy change (light, heat)
precipitate formed

21
Q

extensive properties

A

do depend on the amount of substance present

mass, volume, amount of energy within a substance

22
Q

intensive properties

A

do not depend on the amount of substance present

color, density, melting point, luster

23
Q

atoms

A

smallest unit of an element that still retains all the chemical properties of that element

24
element
pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler, stable substances and is made of one type of atom (gold, silver, helium, hydrogen)
25
compound
substance that can be broken down into simple stable substances each compound is made from the atoms of two or more elements that are chemically bonded (water)
26
is water an element or a compound?
compound | made of two elements, hydrogen and oxygen
27
particles
can refer to either atoms or molecules
28
you can have a molecule of an ______ or a molecule of a _______ but not an atom of a _______
element compound compound
29
pure substance
made of only one element or compound has fixed composition every sample of a given pure substance has exactly the same characteristic properties and exactly the same composition
30
mixture
combination of more than one element or compound which are not chemically bonded together
31
the components of a mixture can by separated by _____ changes
physical
32
reactants
elements or compounds that you start with and react together to form a new substance
33
products
substances that form as a result if the reaction
34
homogenous mixture
a mixture that has the same consistency throughout | component parts are evenly distributed
35
solutions are _______ mixtures
homogenous
36
heterogenous mixtures
mixtures that have uneven distribution (consistency) of substances throughout
37
periodic table
arrangement of elements based on similar chemical properties
38
periods
horizontal rows of elements on the periodic table | physical and chemical properties change across a period
39
groups/families
vertical columns of elements on the table | each group contains elements with similar chemical properties
40
elements in the same _______ have very similar properties
group/family
41
where are metals found in relation to the metalloids?
to the left
42
where are nonmetals found in relation to the metalloids?
to the right
43
metals
an element that is a good electrical conductor and a good heat conductor have high tensile strength (resist breaking) malleable (can be hammered) ductile (can be drawn into wire) lustrous solid at room temperature
44
nonmetals
an element that is a poor conductor of heat and electricity gasses at room temperature solid nonmetals are brittle
45
alkali metals
group IA on periodic table silver in color soft enough to cut with a knife reactive with nonmetals and with water
46
alkaline earth metals
group IIA on periodic table harder and stronger than alkali metals very reactive but less so than alkali metals have higher melting points
47
halogens
group VIIA on periodic table most reactive nonmetals react with metals to form salts
48
noble gasses
group VIIIA on periodic table extremely unreactive (inert) only family consisting of all gasses
49
metalloids
an element that has some characteristics of metals and some characteristics of nonmetals some have metallic luster semiconductors of electricity less malleable than metals but not as brittle as nonmetals
50
chemical
any substance that has definite composition or is used or produced in a chemical process
