unit 1 i think?? Flashcards
matter
has mass and volume
properties of solids
definite shape and volume. molecules rigid in repeating geometric pattern and vibrate
properties of liquids
definite volume, not shape. molecules undulate (slide past each other)
properties of gases
no definite shape or volume. spread out evenly in container and can be compressed
diatomic atoms
B R I Cl H O F elements that must exist in pairs in nature and are technically molecules
compound
pure substance made of 2 or more different elements created through chemical reactions
molecule
chemical combination of 2 or more atoms with covalent bonds only made through chemical reactions
pure substance
a substance with only one type of molecule/particle in it, but can be only one type of compound
mixture
a blend of 2 or more pure substances NOT by chemical means. has no formula or set ratio
alloy
mix of different types of metals
homogenous vs heterogenous mixtures
homogenous has all components spread evenly throughout and heterogenous there are clear spots where things are
extensive vs intensive properties
extensive properties have to do with how much of something there is where as intensive deals with characteristics of a thing no matter the size
physical vs chemical properties
physical doesnt deal with the composition of a substance, chemical does. aqueous solutions are HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURES
physical properties examples
bp, mp, color, density, odor, texture, mass, volume, etc
chemical properties examples
flammability, oxidation, reaction with water, etc
