Unit 1 Test Review Flashcards
The study of the composition of matter and the changes that matter undergoes
Chemistry
How is organic, inorganic, biochemistry,analytical, and physical chemistry related
They are the 5 areas of study for chemistry
Study of all chemicals containing carbon
Organic chemistry
Study of chemicals that don’t contain carbon
Inorganic chemistry
Biochemistry
Study of processes that take place in organisms
Analytical chemistry
The study that focuses on composition of matter
The area that deals with the mechanism the rate and the energy that transfers that occurs when matter undergoes a change
Physical chemistry
Matter
Anything that occupies space
Mass
A measure of the amount of matter in an object
2 types of chemistry
Pure and applied
Is the pursuit of chemical knowledge for its own sake
Pure chemistry
Is the research that is directed toward a practical goal or application
Applied chemistry
The _______ of an object is a measure of the space occupied by the object
Volume
Is a quality or condition of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the substance composition
Physical property
Substance
Matter that has a uniform and definite composition
A property that depends on the type of matter
Intensive property
A property that depends on the amount of matter
Extensive property
What are the 3 states of matter
Solid, liquid, and gas
A form of matter that has a definite shape of its container
Solid
A form of matter that has an indefinite shape flows and yet has a fixed volume
Liquid
Vapor
Describes the gaseous state of a substance that is generally a liquid or solid at room temp as in water vapor
A physical blend of 2 or more components
Mixture
Some properties of a material change but the composition of material does not change
Physical change
A form of matter that take both the shape and volume of its container
Gas
True or false: particles in a solid are packed tightly together
True
When a solid changes to a gas
Sublimation
What are the 5 type of phase changes
Sublimation, condensation, freezing, boiling, and melting
A mixture in which the composition is not uniform throughout ( you can see more than one thing)
Heterogeneous mixture
A mixture in which the composition is uniform throughout ( you can only see one thing)
Homogeneous mixture
This is used to describe any part of a sample with uniform composition and properties
A phase
An irreversible change in one or more substances into entirely new substances with different properties
Chemical change
Chemical property
A property of matter that describes a substances ability to participate in chemical reactions
A characteristic of a substance that does not involve a chemical change, such as density, color, or hardness
Physical property
The periodic table is composed of elements arranged in order of
Increasing atomic #
Horizontal rows on the periods table are called
Periods
