Q

Atom

A

Atoms are the tiny partials that make up everything.

All mater is made of them and they are very small. They cannot be broken down. Each element has its own type of atom.

24
Q

Electron shells

A
  • Electrons orbit the nucleus at set distance and set energy levels.
25
Q

Subatomic particles

A

Their existence was proven by the cathode ray experiment. They are particles smaller than the atom, found inside atoms.

26
Q

Atomic Mass (Relative Atomic Mass)

A

The number of Protons and Neutrons.

Mass of the nucleus.

It is the mass of the nucleus that takes into account all the isotopes of the element.

27
Q

Atomic Number

A

The number of Protons (as well as the number of electrons).

28
Q

Isotopes

A

An atom of the same element but different number of neutrons.

29
Q

Examples of isotopes

A

6 Protons = 3
Li Neutrons = 3
3 Electrons = 3

7 Protons = 3
Li Neutrons = 4
3 Electrons = 3

8 Protons = 3
Li Neutrons = 5
3 Electrons = 3

30
Q

Electrons = Protons

A

Same number of Protons as Electrons as there must be a neutral charge.

31
Q

Ion

A

Different/ more or less number of electrons than protons.

32
Q

RAM

A

Relative Atomic Mass

33
Q

A^r

A

The mean mass of an element that takes into account all the isotopes of that element.

34
Q

Weighted

A

Takes into account the abundance of each isotope.

35
Q

Abundance

A

Lots of something.

36
Q

RAM formula

A

(Abundance of isotope 1 X mass of isotope) + (Abundance of isotope 2 X mass of isotope)

37
Q

Nobel Gases

A
  • Group 1
  • They do not react with anything
38
Q

What is the History of the Periodic Table?

A
  • In the 1870s Mendeleev ordered the elements in a table. They were arranged in order of atomic mass (increasing from left to right). They were also grouped by their properties. And he also left space for undiscovered elements.
  • Mosely used x-ray analysis to show that elements properties are lined to atomic numbers.
39
Q

Period

A

From left to right. The rows. They are arranged in order of the periodic number.

40
Q

Groups

A

Vertical columns, in which element have the same properties.

41
Q

Solid

A

Particles are tightly packed in a regular pattern. They keep their shape and vibrate in fixed positions.

42
Q

Solid + liquid mixture

A

Particles absorb heat energy and break the attraction forces. Particles start to move.

43
Q

Liquid

A

The particles are randomly arranged touching with space between. They take the shape of the container. They flow and particles move in any direction.

44
Q

liquid + gas mixture

A

Gaps between particles increase, they are moving randomly. They move around each other and change direction where they when they change a wall or hit one another.

45
Q

Gas

A

Particles are randomly arranged and not touching. It occupies all the space. They move freely in all directions except when they bash into each other or the walls.

46
Q

Room temperature

A

20 degrees Celsius

47
Q

What are the scientific instruments involved in filtration?

A
  • Filter paper
  • Suspension
  • Solid residue
  • Filter funnel
  • Filtrate
  • Pestle and Mortar
48
Q

What are the scientific instruments involved in crystalisation?

A
  • Filtrate
  • Evaporating Basin
  • Boiling water
  • Gauze
  • Tripod
49
Q

Distillation

A

It is a method of separating mixtures of liquids based on their boiling points.

Extracting and purifying a solvent from a solution.

50
Q

Fractional distilation

A

The separating of a mixture made of two or more substances. Each substance is collected separately depending on which has a lower boiling point and is therefor evapourating.

51
Q

Paper chromatography

A

It is the separation method that separates coloured solutes from a solution.

It is used to separate inks, paints or food colouring.

52
Q

What are the scientific instruments involved in paper chromotography

A
  • Filter paper
  • Pencil
    - For Solvent line
    - For Start line
  • Ruler
    - For Solvent line
    - For Start line
  • Coloured pens with ink, no pencil.
53
Q

R^f value

A

Distance moved by the spot
_____________________________

Distance moved by the solvent

54
Q

Mobile Phase

A

This phase is made of the solvent and the solute (colours).

55
Q

Stationary phase

A

This is the phase where made of the filter paper and a bowl.

56
Q

What happens to inks that are more soluble?

A

They travel to the highest level that the ink reaches.

57
Q

What happens to inks that are less soluble?

A

The don’t rise as high as more soluble inks.

58
Q

What happens if it doesn’t say what decimal point to put a number with lots of numbers after the decimal (e.g. 2.486…)?

A

You put it to 2 decimal points
