Q

SI units

A

of mass are in grams
volume is in cubic meters Eg: 1000m = 1.1x10^3
all measurements in chemistry can be shortened in matter of standard form

Q

gas

A
  • has no fixed volume
  • can be compressed or expanded
  • molecules are fall apart and move at high speeds colliding with one another within the walls of the container

Q

liquid

A
  • has distinct volume
  • assumes shape of container
  • molecules are packed closely but can still move rapidly - this movement allows the molecules to flow out easily

Q

properties of matter

A

can be categized as physical or chemical. the physical properties can be observed without changing the identity or composition of the substance
-chemical properties describe the way a substance may change or react to form out substances

Q

diffusion

A

a substances movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a lower concentration
increase volume - decreased pressure
increased volume - increased pressure

Q

separation techniques

A
  • filtration (insoluble substance in a solvent)
  • separation funnel(2 insoluble substances)
  • distillation (2 soluble substances)
  • functional distillation(two soluble solvents)
  • chromography (pens)
17
Q

atom

A

elements are composed of extremely small particles called atoms, a given element have all identical atoms - same size, mass and chemical properties

  • can be identified by No of protons and neutrons they have
18
Q

heterogenous

A

some mixtures don’t have the same compositions, properties and appearances throughout

19
Q

homogeneous

A

these mixtures are uniformed throughout

20
Q

rate of diffusion

A

inversely proportional to the molecular mass

heavy particles move slower than lighter ones

21
Q

transition from solid to liquid and then to gas

A
