Chapter 2-Chemistry Flashcards
Anything that takes up space and has mass
Matter
The dust of composition of matter.
Chemistry
Basic building block of matter
Atoms
The center of the atom, location of all the mass and positive charge.
Nucleus
Has mass, positive charge, and located in the nucleus
Protons
Has mass, neutral charge, location nucleus
Neutron
No mass, negative charge, electron shell
Electron
Surround the nucleus and contains the elections
Electron shells
of protons
Atomic numbers
Groups of similar atoms
Elements
Letter of element
Chemical symbol
Human body
Oxygen 65%, carbon18.6%, hydrogen9.7%, nitrogen3.2%, calcium1.8%, phosphorus 1%
Atoms of the same element with a different number of neutrons
Isotopes
Atoms weight/atomic mass
-number of protons and neutrons
Mass number
High # of neutrons
Radioisotopes
Amount one proton or one neutron weighs
A.M.U
1 mole=7.023* 10^23
Avogadro’s number
Energy Levels:
- stable
- reactive (most in human body)-form compound
Full
Unfilled
The smallest part of a compound that still acts like that compound
Molecules
Force of attractive
Chemical bonds
Chemical Bonds:
-bond formed by transferring electrons
Ionic
Chemical bond-
Bond that shares electrons
Covalent
Chemical bond-
Different elements
Polar
Chemical bonds-
Same elements
Nonpolor
States of matter-
Definite shape and definite
Solid
State of matter definite volume, no definite shape.
Liquid
State of matter
No definite shape, no definite volume
Gases
Gives off heat, break bonds
Exothermic
Takes in energy, makes bonds
Endothermic
Decomposition, exothermic, beaks down
Catabolism
Combining things to make energy, endothermic
Anabolism
AB-> A+B, created heat, breaks bonds
Decomposition
A+B-> AB
Making a bond
Synthesis
