Term
Law Of Conservation
Definition
The total mass remains constant during a chemical change
Term
A chemical reaction that illustrates the Law of Conservation
Definition
2.53 grams of Mercury + 0.20 grams of Oxygen = 2.73 grams of red-orange residue
Term
Describe the differences between the states of matter
Definition
Solid- rigidity, they maintain their shapes when subjected to outside forces
Liquids- relatively incompressible fluid, fixed volume but no shape
Gas- easily compressible fluid, any quantity will fit in a container of any size or shape
Term
Example of each state if matter
Definition
Solid- ice
Liquid- water
Gas- steam
Term
Definition of a physical property
Definition
A characteristic that can be observed for a material without changing its chemical identity
Term
Three examples of a physical property
Definition
Physical state, melting point, color
Term
Definition if a chemical property
Definition
A characteristic of a material involving its chemical change
Term
Three examples of a chemical property
Definition
Heat combustion, reactivity, Ph factor
Term
Definition of a physical change
Definition
A change in the form if matter but not in its chemical identity
Term
Two examples of a physical change
Definition
Dissolving one material into another, crumpling a piece if paper, breaking a bottle
Term
Definition of a chemical change
Definition
A change in which one more kinds if matter are transformed into new matter or several new kinds of matter
Term
Two examples of a chemical change
Definition
Rusting of iron, burning paper
Term
What is the difference between Pure and Impure substances?
Definition
Pure substances- uniform composition, only one kind of particle
Impure substance- have particles of other substances mixed in that can be separated by physical means
Term
What is an element?
Definition
A substance that cannot be decomposed by any chemical reaction into a simpler substance
Term
Three examples of elements
Definition
Helium, hydrogen, oxygen
Term
What is a compound?
Definition
A substance composed of two or more elements chemically combined. A pure compound always contains a definite or constant proportions of the elements by mass
Term
Three examples of a compound
Definition
Sodium chloride, water, salt
Term
What is a mixture?
Definition
A material that can be separated by physical means into two or more substances
Term
What is the difference between heterogeneous and homogenous mixtures?
Definition
Heterogenous- a mixture that consists of physically distinct parts, each with different properties
Homogeneous- a mixture that is uniform in is properties throughout given samples
Term
Define intensive properties?
Definition
Does not depend on the amount of material present
Term
Two examples of intensive properties
Definition
Density and boiling point
Term
Definition of an extensive property
Definition
Directly proportional to the amount of material present
Term
Two examples of the extensive property
Definition
amount of heat it takes to melt the substance completely, the mass of the object
Term
Define Chromatography
Definition
a collective term for separating mixtures
Term
Describe three different kinds of Chromatography
Definition
Paper Chromatography-place a spot of the mixture on the chromatography paper, then place the paper in the solvent, the mixture will separate as it travels up the paper
Gas- gases stick to the walls of the capillary tube differently, separating them
Liquid-The liquids stick to the walls of a tube a different heights separating them
Term
Describe how paper chromatography can be applied to a lab station
Definition
It can be applied when we have pigments to separate or other mixtures that are able to be visibly separated when made into a concentrated paste on the papaer
