Matter unit Flashcards
Define chemistry
The study the composition and properties of matter
Define Matter
Any substance that has mass and has volume (occupies space)
What is all matter composed of
Atoms
Charge, atomic mass, and symbol of protons
+ charge , 1u atomic mass unit, p+
Charge, atomic mass, and symbol of neutron
Neutral charge, 1u (atomic mass unit) , n0
Charge, atomic mass, and symbol of electrons
Negative charge, 1/2000 u (atomic mass unit), n-
Where are protons and neutrons contained
In the nucleus
Where are electrons found
In orbit around the nucleus
Define molecules
2 or more atoms bonded together
Hofbrincle can be the same element
Define properties
Characteristics that help describe and identify matter
Define Physical property
Can be observed without changing one kind of matter into something new. Ex Colour texture odours lustre
Define Chemical property
Observed when one kind of matter is converted into a different kind of matter. Ex mg produced hydrogen gas in acid.
Define qualitative
Can be described in words but cannot be measured or expressed with numbers
Define quantitative
Can be measured and expressed with numbers
Physical changes
Affect the physical appearance of matter,but not it’s composition. (Change in physical properties only)
Chemical change
Changes that alter the composition of matter (change in both physical and chemical properties
The 5 Clues for a chemical change
Colour change
Production of gas (bubbles)
Precipitate (solid) formation
Heat absorbed or released
Light produced
Bohr Rutherford vs Louis dot
Bohr Rutherford shows all electrons and the protons and neutrons in the nucleus where as Louis dot diagram shows valence electrons
The periodic law
The periodic law states that the properties of elements repeat in a pattern when they are arranged by atomic number
Groups in the periodic table
Alkali metals
Alkaline earth metals
Halogens
Noble gases
Transition metals
Properties of metals
Shiny
Solid (most)
Malleable
Ductile
High Conductive
Properties of metalloids
Some shiny some not
Solids
Brittle
Not ductile
Semi conductor
Non metals
Not shiny
Brittle
Mostly gases
Not ductile
Not conductive (insulators)
Reactivity
How easily and quickly elements react(combine)
