Term
physical change
Definition
alters a substance w/o changing its composition [melting boiling pnt]
Term
chem change
Definition
1 or more substances changing into a new substance w/ diff composition
fermentation, decompose,corrode, tarnish, burn
Term
phase change
Definition
transition of matter from one state to another (water-vapor-ice)
Term
law of conservation of mass
Definition
mass is niether created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction. it is conserved
Term
mixture
Definition
combination of substances that doesnt change the individual substances chemically
Term
homogeneos
Definition
Homogeneos- mixed all the way through, constant composition (aka solutions-solid, liquid or gas)
Term
alloy
Definition
homogeneous metal+metal or metal + nonmetal where metal is larger component
Term
heterogeneous
Definition
not blended smoothly throughout, individual parts distinct
Term
seperating mixtures
Definition
filtratin, distillation (heated untill lower boiling point substance evaporates), crystallization (dissolved substances collect into a crystall), sublimation (solid turns into vapor w/o melting), chromotography(seperates substance by how fast they are drawn across a surfac)
Term
electrolysis
Definition
platinum tube sends electric current which splits the 2 chemicals into compartments
Term
law of definate proportions
Definition
mass of a compound equals the combined mass of the elements in the compound
Term
percent by mass
Definition
mass of element/ mass of compound x 100
Term
law of multiple proportions
Definition
a group of chemicals can make many diff compounds
