Ks3 EOY Revision Flashcards
Chemical reaction
changes that only involve the positions of electrons in the forming and breaking of chemical bonds between atoms. Results in a new substance
Physical changes
A change in state
When is an alkali neutral as acid on the ph scale
Acid 1-6
Neutral 7
Alkali 8-14
In an acid what colour is red litmus paper
Stays red
In an acid what colour is blue litmus paper
Turns red
In a neutral liquid what colour is red litmus paper
Stays red
In a neutral liquid what colour is blue litmus paper
Stays blue
In an alkali what colour is red litmus paper
Turns blue
In an alkali what colour is blue litmus paper

Electrons
Negatively charged particles that spin around the positive centre of the atom in circles called energy levels. Their mass is so small it is nearly zero
Protons
Positively charged particles that are contained in the
nucleus
of the atom (the centre) they have a mass of 1 amu (atomic mass unit).
Neutron
Particles with no charge that are also contained in the nucleus of the atom. They also have a mass of 1 amu.
Three rock types
Igneous sedimentary metamorphic
How are igneous rocks formed
Cooling of molten rock
How are sedimentary rocks formed
small rock pieces being transported in rivers and laid down in layers
