Chemi Flashcards
Chemistry
the study of the properties of matter and the changes it undergoes
Matter
anything that takes up space and has a mass
Mass
measure of matter that an object contains
substance
matter that has a definite or constant composition and distinct properties
mixture
a combination of two or more substances in which the substances retain their distinct identities
Compound
a substance combined of two or more elements
Element
A substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical means
homogeneous mixture
a uniformed mixture
heterogeneous
not a uniformed mixture
solvent
dissolves the solute
Solute
added to the solvent
solution
homogeneous mixture consisting of a solvent and solute
atomic number
protons
mass
protons and neutrons
Freezing water
0 C and 32 F
Normal Body temp
37 C and 98.6 F
Boiling water
100 C and 212 F
celsius to fahrenheit
F = °C × (9/5) + 32
F to C
°C = 5/9(°F – 32).
Ions
when an atom is electrically charged. When an ion is in a ionic state it will lose or gain electrons.
Cation
Positive charged
Gains protons looses electrons
Anion
Negative charge
Loses protons gains electrons
Isotope
atoms of the same element with different mass numbers
chemical change
original substance is transformed into a new substance with different properties
example: burning of wood and then the wood turning into ashes
Physical change
transformation that does not produce a new substance
Example: Cutting fruit
Mole
Amount of substance that contains 6.02*10^23 particles
mixtures
consist of 2 or more substances that our Not chemically bonded
Homogenous mixture
Uniformly distributed
Heterogenous
mixture not uniformly distributed
example: Pizza, Rock, Vegtable soup
Solvent
Dissolves the solute
