Sir Majid Gen Ed Science Flashcards
Recorded observations and measurements in an explanation
Data
It is the answer to the experiment
Conclusion
What are the two types of data?
Qualitative and Quantitative
It summarizes natural occurrence that may be constantly observed given the same conditions which may be expressed in words or MATHEMATICAL form?
Law
It is the tentative answer to the problem which was proven in an experiment
Hypothesis
Steps of Scientific Method:
- Identify the problem
- Formulate Hypothesis
- Test the hypothesis
- Analyze the result
- Formulate the conclusion
Discovered penicillin
Alexander Fleming
How is the relationship described when both quantities are increasing but one quantity increases faster than the other?
Direct Square Proportion
Data that is characteristic/descriptive
Qualitative Data
Data that can be counted or measured in numerical values
Quantitative Data
The compactness of molecule
Density
It is a combination of an element or a compound
Mixture
a mixture in which the composition is uniform throughout the mixture (same; you cannot see unless looked through a microscope)
Homogenous Mixture
It is a mixture in which the composition is not uniform throughout the mixture. (The one you can see)
Heterogenous Mixture
Odorless and colorless boils at 100 °C and melts at 0 °C
Pure substance
It absorbs energy in the form of heat from its surroundings
Endothermic Reaction
It releases energy to the surroundings
Exothermic
Chemical name of rust
Iron oxide
How is hypothesis tested?
by conducting an experiment
The human activity that added the most carbon in the atmosphere
burning fossil fuels
Any matter that has a carbon in it
Organic Chemistry
Stomach release what kind of acid?
Gastric acid
How acid rain occurs?
It occurs when sulfur released in burning fossil fuels combines with water in the atmosphere
It poisons fish and destroy vegetation
