Term
3 states of matter
Definition

Liquid

Solid

Gas

Term
Pure Substance
Definition

Composed of only one type of atom or molecule

 

Ex: pure water

Term
Homogenous mixture
Definition

The composition of the mixture is the same throughout, mixture is uniform throughout and well stirred

 

EX: salt water, sweet tea

Term
Heterogenous mixture
Definition

Compounds separate, varies from one region to the other

 

EX: oil and water

Term
Conservation of Mass
Definition
  • Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
  • In chemical reactions, the changes in mass are so minute that they can be ignored
  • During physical and chemical changes, the total amount of matter remains constant.
Term
Energy
Definition
Capacity to do work
Term
Kinetic Energy
Definition
Energy in motion
Term
Potential Energy
Definition
Resting energy
Term
Unit measurement of Energy
Definition

Joule- J

calorie- cal

 

1cal=4.184 J

Term
Formula to find temperatures in Kelvin, Celsius, and Fahrenheit
Definition

K = C + 273.15

 

C = (F - 32) / 1.8

 

F = 1.8 C + 32

Term
Heat capacity
Definition
Is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of a given amount of the substance by 1 degree Celsius.
Term
Specific Heat Capacity
Definition
The amount of the substance is expressed in grams and has units of joules per gram per degree Celsius (J/g*C)
Term
Q=mcΔT
Definition
Heat = mass x specific heat capacity x temp change
Term

(b) water

(c) milk

(d) fruit cake

Term

Substance A has a heat capacity that is much greater than that of substance B. If 10.0g of substance A initially at 25.0 °C is brought into thermal contact with 10.0g of B initially at 75.0 °C, what can you conclude about the final temperature of the two substances once the exchange of heat between the substances is complete?

(a) The final temp will be between 25-50

(b) The final temp will be between 50-75

(c) The final temp will be 50

(d) You can conclude nothing about the final temp w/o more info

Definition
The final temp will be between 25-50
