|
All of a ___________ mixture has the same composition.
|
Homogeneous
|
|
When an atom loses an electron, it's a _________ ion.
|
positive
|
|
What is ductile?
|
The ability to be pulled into wires.
|
|
What does it mean to conduct electricity?
|
It means that the element will allow a flow of electrons.
|
|
Protons in a nucleus are held together by ____________ force.
|
nuclear strong
|
|
Iron
|
1. malleable
2. conducts heat and electricity 3. ductile |
|
Mercury
|
1. liquid at room temp
2. silvery 3. poisonous gas |
|
Ionic compounds tend to be ___________.
|
solids
|
|
Molecular compounds tend to be _______.
|
liquids and gases
|
|
Zinc 64 and Zinc 66 are different ________.
|
isotopes
|
|
Isotope
|
Atoms of the same element that have different #s of neutrons
|
|
Structure of atom
|
Protons (positive) and neutrons (neutral)in the nucleus and electrons (negative) are in surrounding electron cloud on energy levels.
|
|
Atomic #
|
. # on protons in the atom
. indentifies the atom |
|
Carbon 14
|
. found in all living things and is used to date organic artifacts
. C14 decays into C12 which is more stable . measure the ratio of C14 to C12 to dtermine the age of sample |
|
Mass #
|
. total # of protons and neutrons
. aren't whole #s because they're averages based on isotopes |
|
Atomic Mass Unit
|
. based on Carbon atom
. 1/2 the mass of Carbon atom |
|
Ion
|
an atom of group of atoms that gains of loses an electron`
|
|
compound
|
a substance made of 2 or more elements, chemical combined
|
|
Molecular Compounds
|
particle held together by sharing of electrons
|
|
Ionic Compound
|
charged particle formed when an atom of group of atoms gains or loses an electron
(exchange) |
|
Mixture
|
when 2 or more substances are not chemically compbined, but are mixed together physically
|
|
Homogeneous
|
All parts contain the same amount of each component
ex: grape juice, chocolate milk, alloy |
|
Heterogeneous
|
Not all parts of mixture contain same amount of each component
ex: salt and pepper, seasoning mix, raisen bran cereal |
|
Compouds vs. Mixtures
|
. Compounds don't vary in composition, mixtures do
. Compounds chemically combine, mixtures don't . Compounds don't keep it's element's original properties, mixtures do . Compounds can only be seperated chemically, mixtures can be seperated physically |
