Section 1 Observing Chemical Change Flashcards
1
Q
Matter and change
A
•changes in matter can be described in terms of physical changes and chemical changes
2
Q
Properties of matter
A
- Two properties of matter physical and chemical
* physical properties = when solids melt, color , hardness, texture, shine, flexibility, ability to conduct heat and electricity
* . Chemical properties= ability to rust or tarnish
3
Q
Changes of matter
A
- squashing a marshmallow is a physical change
- the shape changes but the taste doesn’t
- examples= bending, crushing, breaking, cutting, melting, freezing, boiling, condensing
- chemical change= atoms get rearranged to form new substances
4
Q
Bonding and chemical change
A
• chemical changes occur when bonds break and new bonds form
5
Q
Evidence for chemical reactions
A
• chemical reactions involve changes in properties and changes in energy that you can observe.
6
Q
Changes in properties
A
- changes in properties means a new substance forms
- formation of solid, liquid, or gases
- moist bread dough that turns dry
7
Q
Changes in energy
A
- absorbs heat or liberate heat
- baking soda and vinegar mixed is a endothermic reaction
- occur when heat is constantly added
- frying an egg
- exothermic releases heat into nearby matter
- reaction between fuel and oxygen
- expansion
