Q

Main ideas of the particle theory of matter (5)

A
  1. All matter is made up of tiny particles with empty spaces in between
  2. Different substances are made up of different kinds of particles
  3. Particles are in constant random motion
  4. As temperatures increase, the particles of a substance moves faster
  5. Particles attract each other

Q

How do particles of a substance become solid?

A

Particles of a substance become solid when the forces of attraction are strong enough to hold them close together

Q

How do particles of a substance become a liquid?

A

Particles gain energy and begin to move faster when they are heated. Once they have enough thermal energy, they begin to slide past each other since the attraction is not strong enough to hold them together and turn into the liquid state. The particles are still close together but are able to flow past one another

Q

How do particles of a substance become a gaseous state.

A

As the heating continues, the particles gain so much energy that they fly apart and become the gaseous state. The particles are so far apart that their forces of attraction have barely any effect on their behaviour

Q

How to calculate density, mass and volume

A

Density = mass/Volume
D = m/V

Mass = Density x Volume
Volume = Mass / Density

22
Q

Physical properties

A

Characteristics of a substance that can be determined without changing the composition of that substance

23
Q

Qualitative Properties

A

A property of a substance that is not measured and does not have a numerical value, such as colour, odour, and texture

24
Q

Quantitative Properties

A

A property of a substance that is measured and has a numerical value, such as temperature, height, and mass

25
Q

Chemical Properties

A

Characteristics of a substance determined when the composition of the substance is changed(ie. When it reacts with something)

26
Q

Physical Change

A

The substance(atomic structure) remains the same even though it may change state. Physical change can usually be undone - Dissolving is a physical change

27
Q

Chemical Change

A

The original substance is changed into a new substance(or substances), with new properties. Chemical changes can’t be undone

28

Colour
Texture
Odour
Lustre
Clarity
Taste
State
Density
Hardness
Melting Point
Boiling Point
Solubility
Viscosity

Qualitative

32
Q

Lustre

A

How shiny or dull an object is

33
Q

A

How see through something is - transparent(totally clear); translucent(somewhat clear, still see through), opaque(not see through at all)

34
Q

Taste

A

Qualitative

35
Q

State

A

What state of matter or phase is it in

36
Q

Density

A

How much mass is in a given volume

37
Q

Hardness

A

How easily is it scratched?

38
Q

Melting Point

A

The temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid

39
Q

Boiling Point

A

The temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas

40
Q

Solubility

A

If it can or can’t dissolve into water

41
Q

Viscosity

A

The thickness of a liquid; how a fluid flows. Eg. Syrup has high viscosity; water has low viscosity

42
Q

Malleability

A

The ability of a substance to be flattened/bent

43
Q

Ductility

A

The ability of a substance to be drawn out into a wire(ie. Think formation of a duct shape)

44
Q

Electrical Conductivity

A

The ability of a substance to allow an electric current to pass through it

45
Q

Examples of Chemical Properties (4)

A

Reacting with water
Reacting with acids
Reacting with bases
Flammability

46
Q

Clues that a chemical change has occurred(5)

A
  1. A colour change
  2. Heat or light is given off
  3. Bubbles of gas are formed
  4. A solid(precipitate) is formed
  5. A change in odour(gas is produced)
47
