Chemistry & Physics Flashcards
What is an Endothermic Reaction
Energy is supplied more than released
What is a ph is acidic
pH 0-7 is acidic (less than 7)
What does the pH scale represent
The pH scale represents how acidic/basic a solution is
What pH is a base
pH 7-14 is basic (more than 7)
What is the atomic mass
It’s the amount of protons + neutrons an element has
What pH is neutral
pH level 7
What is neutralization
Neutralization is a reaction between an acid and a base
What is an Exothermic reaction?
Energy is being released than supplied.
Example of Acids and Bases
Acid+Base forms Salt+Water
Definition of an acid?
A substance with particular chemical properties including turning litmus red, neutralising alkalise and dissolving some metals.
What are the compositions of the 3 types of Radiation?
Alpha - Helium Particles, Beta - Electron, Gamma - Electro Magnetic-radiation (energy)
How do Acids taste?
Acids are sour in taste.
How do Acids feel?
They are rough, bumpy, course
What are the masses of the particles?
Protons: 1, Electrons: almost 0, Neutrons: 1
What are examples of acids
lemon
What happens to the litmus paper when it is put into an acid?
It turns red from blue
What is Activation Energy?
The energy required to break in bonds in the reactancts for a chemical reaction to occur
What is the definition of a Bases?
Substance that can neutralise the acid by reacting with hydrogen ions
How do bases taste?
Bitter
What are some examples of an Exothermic reaction?
Burning wood
How do bases feel?
Slippery
Examples of bases?
Bleach, cleaning products
What are the 3 types of Radiation shielded by?
Alpha - Paper, cloth. Beta - Metal Foil. Gamma - Led, Concrete.
What happens to the litmus paper when it is put into a base?
The litmus paper turns blue from red.
What is Radiation?
Movement of heat through waves. The heat transfers when waves collide with particles.
