Q

What is Precision?

A

Its consistency. If the same object is measured multiple times, a precise instrument will give similar results each time.

17
Q

Why do phase changes occur?

A

usually due to heating or cooling

18
Q

What are the three phases (states) of matter?

A

Solid, Liquid, Gas

19
Q

What are the particles like in a solid?

A

They have a rigid structure and definite shape. Particles are locked in place and are closely packed together making it the most dense state of matter.

20
Q

What are the particles like in a liquid?

A

Don’t have a rigid structure. Particles move freely past each other Liquid will take the shape of the container its in. Particles are close together so liquids are dense but not compressable.

21
Q

What are the particles like in a Gas?

A

No rigid structure and also take shape of container. particles spread out to fill the container. they occupy the volume of what they are given. Low density, Compressible

22
Q

What is a chemical change?

A

One where a substance is destroyed and another is created. Chemical bonds are broken and/or formed. Irriversible

23
Q

What is a physical change?

A

A change in which no new molecules are made. no chemical bonds are broken or formed. Reversible

24
Q

Chemical equations

A

Count how many of each then write: Substance then number below and to the side
ex H204f3 number would go below

25
Q

What are the 2 categories of matter?

A

Pure substances and Mixtures

26
Q

what are the 2 types of pure substances?

A

Element and Compound

27
Q

What is the difference between an atomic element and a molecular element?

A

Atomic: Element made up of atoms
Molecular: Element made of molecules

28
Q

What is a homogenous mixture?

A

Atoms are scattered and uneven

29
Q

What is a heterogenous mixture?

A

atoms are separated. could be clumps or sides

30
Q

What is a mixture?

A

A mix of different types of atoms

31
Q

What is a compound?

A

2 different atoms connected by a bond

32
Q

What is a Kilo (meter, gram, liter)

A

x1000

33
Q

What is a Centi (meter, gram, liter)

A

x0.01 hundredths place

34
Q

what is a Milli (meter, gram, liter)

A

x0.001 Thousandths place

35
Q

What are the indications a chemical change is occurring?

A

Gives off light
bubbles
Change in temp
absorbs heat
creates a new substance
