Q

Atom

A

Tiniest bit of matter where the essence of the substance is still retained

  • electrons protons and neutrons
    -neutrons and protons make up nucleus

Q

Element

A

The simplest kind of matter that cannot be broken down into anything simpler and retain its identity
—one type of atom
- each element is on the period table

A

Vaporization

18
Q

Gas - liquid

A

Condensation

19
Q

Solid - liquid

20
Q

Liquid - solid

21
Q

Endothermic

A

Energy (as heat) flows from the surroundings into the system

22
Q

Exothermic

A

Energy (as heat) flows out of the system into the surrounding

23
Q

Solid

A

Matter with defined shape and volume
Particles are tightly packed together

24
Q

Liquid

A

Matter where particles move apart and have no order and flow past each other
Has defined volume but no defined shape

25
Gas
Matter where the particles are very far apart and have no order Particles more rapidly to fill space No fixed volume or shape
26
Plasma
Similar to gas but super excited and super heated Atoms broken apart into positive and negative ions Very far apart with no order and moving quickly
27
Bose Einstein concentrate
Supercool, super not excited solid Atoms slow down so much that they near absolute zero No longer distinct particles
28
Physical change
Properties of the substance change but the chemical identity and composition doesn’t
29
Chemical change
Changing chemical identity and composition
30
Physical properties
Things that can be observed without changing its identity or composition - viscosity, conductivity, malleability, ductility
31
Chemical properties
Things that become evident during a chemical reaction - flammability, toxicity
32
Law of conservation of mass/matter
Mass is neither created nor destroyed but rather is conserved
33
Energy
The amount of work and object it system can do in relation to another object or system - the capability to do work
34
Potential energy
Energy due to position
35
Kinetic energy
Energy due to motion
36
E=MC^2 M= E/C^2
M- mass E- energy C- speed of light
37
Law of conservation of energy
Energy is neither created nor destroyed but it is conserved
