Q

what are the different types of compounds?

A
  • molecular compound

- ionic compound

22
Q

what is an atomic element?

A

only one atom makes up substance (ex. Au, Ag, Na)

23
Q

what is a molecular element?

A

only one type of atom make up the substance (ex. O2, H2, N2)

24
Q

what is a molecular compound?

A

2 or more non-metallic elements make up the substance (ex. H2O, CH4)

25
Q

what is an ionic compound?

A

a metallic atom and one or more non-metallic atoms are chemically combined (ex. NaCl, CaCO3)

26
Q

what is a physical property?

A

a property that can be determined using our five senses

27
Q

what is a chemical property?

A

involves the formation of one or more new substances

28
Q

how do you know if it is a chemical property?

A
  • Formation of solid
  • Formation of gas
  • Formation of energy
  • Drastic colour change
  • irreversible reaction
29
Q

how can you use the electrostatic series to determine the charge on an object after friction?

A

the object higher on the list loses electrons and becomes positively charged, while the lower substance gains electrons and becomes negatively charged
higher = positive charge
lower = negative charge

30
Q

what are the three laws of electric charges?

A
  • like charges repel
  • opposite charges attract
  • neutral objects neither repel nor attract
31
Q

what’s the difference between a parallel and series circuit?

A

parallel has multiple paths for electrons to flow, series only has one path

32
Q

how do you measure current?

A

black wire in com, red wire in A, connect in series

33
Q

how do you measure voltage?

A

black wire in com, red wire in Y, connect in parallel

34
Q

what is a predator?

A

an organism that kills and eats another organism

35
Q

what is prey?

A

an organism that is killed and eaten by the predator

36
Q

define the term biotic factor

A

living components, (ex. plants, animals)

37
Q

define the term abiotic factor

A

non-living components, (ex. temperature, wind)

38
Q

list some biotic factors that can impact the growth of plants

A
  • overcrowding of plants

-

39
Q

list some abiotic factors that can impact the growth of plants

A
  • not enough water
  • not enough sunlight
  • natural or caused disaster
40
Q

what is the difference between rotation and revolution?

A

rotation: earth makes one rotation from the west to east a day
revolution: earth revolves around the sun one time every 365.25 days

41
Q

what is the difference between solar and lunar eclipse?

A

solar: occurs when the moon is aligned with the earn and sun and blocks the sun
lunar: occurs when the earth is positioned between the sun and moon casting a shadow on the mood

42
Q

how can you differentiate between summer solstice and winter solstice in a model of the solar system in the southern and northern hemisphere?

A

winter: northern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun as much as possible (december 21st)
summer: northern hemisphere is tilted toward the sun as much as possible (june 21st)

43
Q

How do you tell if something is transparent?

A

You can see right through it (its clear)

44
Q

How do you tell if something is translucent?

A

You can partially see through it, its not completely see through (mouth wash)

45
Q

How do you tell if something is opaque?

A

You cannot see through it at all (Ketchup)

46
Q

How do you find out if something is denser than another object?

A

Put the object in water and see if it floats, or see what sinks faster. (The object that sinks faster is denser)

47
Q

How do you find out if something is more viscous than another object?

A

Let the two substances drip, the one that drips slower is more viscous

48
Q

How do you find out which is more malleable?

A

Try bending it

49
Q

Which one has more lustre?

A

How shiny is it?

50
Q

Which one is more water-soluble?

A

Mix it with water?

51
Q

What is temporary induction?

A

When a charged object is brought close to a neutral object, the electrons move to one side temporarily (Water bending)

52
Q

What us permanent induction?

A

When a charged object is brought close to a neutral object, the electrons move to one side while you are grounding the neutral object. When you remove the charged object and the ground it will be permanently charged
