TRUE OR FALSE
all processes cease as temperature approaches absolute zero
TRUE
any entity that occupies space and has mass
matter
differentiate mass vs. weight
- mass - amount of matter
- weight - mass w pull of gravity
intrinsic/intensive properties
independent on the amount of matter
- density
- specific gravity
- melting point
extrinsic/extensive properties
dependent on the amount of matter
- weight
- volume
- pressure
- heat content
evidences of a chemical change
- evolution of gas
- formation of a precipitate
- emission of light
- generation of electricity
- production of mechanical energy
- absorption or liberation of heat
has a definite and unvarying composition
pure substance
the simplest form of substance that cannot be decomposed by a simple chemical reaction
element
if elements are chemically combined, it will yield _____
compound
made up of 2 or more substances physically combined
mixture
occurs when valence electrons around the nucleus interact
removal or addition or electrons to valence shells
chemical reaction
substances that enter a chemical reaction
reactants
union of oxygen to form a substance
oxidation
removal of oxygen or addition of hydrogen
reduction
acid-base balance to form salt & water
neutralization
reaction of water in salt to form acid & base
hydrolysis
reaction between alkali and fats or oils to form soap and glycerol
saponification
action of bacteria or microorganisms on organic substances resulting to production of alcohol
fermentation
the smallest indivisible portion of a pure chemical substance that has its unique set of chemical properties
molecules
atom or molecule in which the total number of electrons is not equal to the total number of protons, therefore giving it a net positive or negative electrical charge
ions
lost electron, with positive charge
cation
gained electron, with negative charge
anion
substances whose molecules are made up of 2 or more kinds of atoms combined in definite proportions
compound
TYPES OF COMPOUND
electron transfer from an atom to another through attraction between positive and negative charged ions (nonmetal + metal)
ionic compound
