General Chemistry 1 Flashcards
Refers to the amount of matter in an object.
Mass
What is density?
It is the measure of mass per unit volume.
Measure of the 3D space.
Volume
State of matter which is slightly compressible and has high density.
Liquid
Differentiate Bose-Einstein Condensate and Plasma
BEC has very low kinetic energy while Plasma has very high.
How would you describe “gasses” in terms of its heat expansion and density?
Gasses has high heat expansion and very low density.
How will you define Plasma? Give examples of matter in this state.
It is produced when gasses are heated to the point where the gasses become charged
Examples: Lightning, Stars, Sun, and Neon Lights
What is the process of turning solid into gas, then gas to solid?
Solid to Gas: Sublimation
Gas to Solid: Deposition
State the phase change that may occur when Gas to Liquid happens
Condensation
TRUE OR FALSE: CLOUDS ARE LIQUID
TRU
How would you define Pure Substances?
It cannot be separated through physical means since its a sample of matter with both definite and constant composition and distinct chemical properties.
What type of pure substance can be chemically decomposed? Define and give examples.
Compounds - substance containing 2 or more of different elements that are bonded.
What are Mixtures?
It is made by mixing substances together even though its not chemically bonded.
Differentiate Homogeneous from Heterogeneous
Homogenous are composed of 2 or more compounds that exists only in one phase. Heterogeneous is a combination of compound that exists in two or more phase which is distinguishable for each other.
State the phase change that may occur when Liquid turns in to Gas
Vaporization
State the phase change that may occur when Gas turns in to Plasma
Ionization
State the phase change that may occur when Plasma turns in to Gas
Recombination
State the phase change that may occur when Solid turns in to Bose Einstein Condensate
Cooling and Compression
What is the process of turning solid into liquid, then liquid to solid?
Melting and Freezing
It is a type of heterogenous mixture which can scatter light or also known as Tyndall effect.
Colloid
What are the similarities of Solutions and Colloids?
Particles don’t separate on standing and can’t be separated by filtration.
Air is what kind of mixture?
Homogeneous
What are Solids?
State of matter in which the particles are
very close to each other. Solid object have a
definite shape and volume.
What are Liquids?
State of matter in which the particles are
neither close nor too far from each other. Liquids
have a definite volume but indefinite shape.
