CHAPTER 5 CHEMISTRY FOR ESTHETICIANS Flashcards
the smallest particle of an element that still retains the properties of the element
atom
change in the chemical composition of a substances, in which a new substance or substances are formed having properties different from the original.
chemical change
those characteristic that can be only be determined with a chemical reaction and that cause a chemical change in the identity of the substance.
chemical properties
science that deals with the composition, structures and properties of matter, and how matter changes under different chemical conditions.
chemistry
rapid oxidation of any substance, accompanied by the production of the heat and light.
combustion
combination of two or more atoms of different elements united chemically with a fixed chemical compositiondefinite proportions and district properties
compund
chemical combinations of two or more atoms of different elements
compound molecules
the simplest form of matter; cannot be broken down into a simpler substance without loss of identity.
element
molecules that contain two or more atoms of the same element that are united chemically.
element molecules
mixture of two or more immiscible substances united with the aid of a binder or emulsifier
emulsion
colorless, odorless, tasteless gas; the lightest element known
hydrogen
compound of hydrogen and oxygen; a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor and slightly acid taste.
hydrogen peroxide
capable of combining with or attracting water.
hydrophilic
not capable of being mixed.
immiscible
branch of chemistry dealing with compounds lacking carbon.
