25
Chemical identity DOES CHANGE
Chemical
26
A single kind of matter that *cannot be separated* into other kinds of matter by any physical means
Pure substance
27
A Pure substance has
Definite & constant composition
28
A *physical combination of two or more pure substances* in which each substance retains its own chemical identity
Mixture
29
Physically mixed, not chemically combined
Mixture
30
Can be separated by using physical means
Mixture
31
Another characteristic of a mixture
Variable composition
32
A *pure substance* that cannot be *broken down* into simpler pure substances by chemical means
Element
33
A *pure substance* that *can be broken down into two/more simpler substances by chemical means*
Compound
34
Breakdown products for any compound
Elements
35
A mixture that contains *visibly different phases*, non uniform appearance
Heterogenous mixture
36
A mixture that contains *only one visible distinct phase*, uniform properties
Homogenous mixture
37
States that “Different samples of the same compound always contain its constituents elements in the same proportion by mass”
Law of definite proportion
38
By Joseph Proust
Law of definite proportion
39
States that “if two elements can combine to form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the element are in ratios of small whole numbers”
Law of multiple proportion
40
States that “matter can be neither created nor destroyed”
Law of conservation of mass
41
Process of getting the actual measure of an object’s dimension in terms of standard unit
Measurements
42
How close a measurement is to the true value
Accuracy
43
Refers to the repeatability of the measurement
Precision
