States of matter, atoms, and bonding Flashcards
Define matter
anything with both a mass and a volume
know the different states of matter and the characteristics of each
solid: definite shape and definite volume
Liquid: definite volume no definite shape
Gas: no definite shape no definite volume
Know the kinetic theory of matter
atoms are always moving
Know what determines the different states of matter
temperature
define thermal expansion
when it gets hot particles move faster and it expands. When it gets cold particles condense.
Define element and a compound.
Element is one capital letter and a compound is two. And element is matter made from one kind of atom and a compound has two atoms chemically combined.
define and know the locations and charges of protons neutrons and electrons.
protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus and electrons are located in the cloud of electrons.
Know the masses and unit of protons neutrons and electrons
Proton= 1 amu
Neutrons= 1 amu
Electrons= 1/2,000
Define atomic number atomic mass and valence electrons
An= protons
Am= protons + neutrons
Ve= outer electrons
Know where most of the mass of an atom is located
The nucleus
Know the number of electrons each energy level can hold
level one is= 2
level two is=8
Define isotopes
different forms of an element same number of protons but different number of neutrons
Know how to draw atoms
lol I’m fucked
Be able to use the periodic table (atomic number atomic mass valence electrons number of energy levels)
An= Protons
Am= Protons + neutrons
The number of protons is equal to the number of electrons
am - an = neutrons
energy levels depends on the row number its in.
Define chemical formula
It shows the differents kinds and proportions of an atom in a compound
