Material World Flashcards
what makes a stronger electrolyte
more dissociation of the ions
Formula for Electrolytic Dissociation
NaCl(s)—->Na+(aq)+Cl-(aq)
do you know something is an acid in an equation
The chemical formula begins an H ends with a nonmetal
how do you know when the equation has a base in it
The chemical formula ends with OH and begins with a metal
what is a covalent bond
A bond resulting from a sharing of electrons
how do you show a covalent bond
Lewis notation with the circles
how do I know when a molecule is a covalent bond
both atoms are nonmetal
define an ionic bond
A bond resulting from the gain or loss of electrons
how do you draw an ionic bond
with Lewis notation and arrows
how do you know when a molecule is an ionic bond
when the molecule has one nonmetal atoms and one metal atom
what does it mean when something is exothermic
you get heat from it
what does it mean when something is endothermic
it takes heat away
in the chemical formula the energy or heat is on the right side what does that mean
The equation is exothermic
what does it mean when the energy or heat is on the left side of the equation
The chemical formula is endothermic
what is radioactivity
the emission of particles or energy by the nucleus of the atom following nuclear transformations
what are examples of technology that use radioactivity
cancer treatments
what is work related to
how much force is required to move an object over a certain distance
what is mass
mass is our weight on earth
what is weight
Weight is dependent on the force or pull of gravity
is potential energy
change in vertical displacement. 100% of the energy is potential before an object drops
