science test unit 1 Flashcards
Know how to determine the following for solids and liquids: D
D=M/V Density=Mass divided by Volume
Know how to determine the following for solids and liquids: Solid and what if its to big
-small enough-Displacement of water
–too large–Measurement and Calculation
Know how to determine density–Density problem on test
D=M/V
solids–g/cm3
Liquids–g/ml
They are equal
Know what pH readings make a chemical corrosive
Corrosive-
pH below 3 or above 12 eats away at metals
Know what pH readings make a base and acid
12 and up strong base 3 and below strong acid
Know the characteristics of a chemical reaction
change in temperature (hot/cold), removal of waste, production of gas, color change
Determine volume of a graduated cylinder
Meniscus
look at middle bottom for reading
Toxicity
can harm to living organisms
Know what happens when different liquids with different densities are mixed together-lower D
it floats
Know what happens when different liquids with different densities are mixed together-higher D
it sinks
Water
density of 1.0 g/ml
Density smaller than 1.0 g/ml-water
floats
Density larger than 1.0 g/ml-water
sinks
How does the Porter County HazMat Team deal with an unknown substance ?
Observe from distance
Prep for Safety
Test Temperature
Flammability
pH Test, Cobalt Blue Test (paper)
ID chemical from sample
Dispose of chemical
What does miscibility in water mean
Two chemicals mix together, don’t separate
