Chemistry
|
The science that deal with the structure of matter
|
|
Matter
|
Anything that takes up space and has mass
|
|
Mass
|
The amount of material in matter--determines the weight of an object
|
|
Subatomic Particle
|
Buildinng blocks of atoms
Protons, Neutrons, Electrons |
|
Protons
|
Postive charge, found in nucleus of atom
|
|
Neutron
|
Neutral, found in nucleus of atom
|
|
Electrons
|
Negative, found orbiting nuclues.
|
|
Mass of an atom
|
Determined by the number of protons and neutron in the nucleus
|
|
Atomic Structure
|

Interaction that hold atoms together once a reaction has ended. Ionic bonds Covalent bonds |
|
Ionic Bonds
|
Bonds that from cation, anions
|
|
Electron Donor
|
Loses one of more electron and become a cation with a positive charge.
|
|
Electron Acceptor
|
Gains same electrons and become an anion with a negative charge.
|
|
Covalent Bonds
|
Atoms completing their valence shells by sharirign electrons
Single, shares one pair Double, Shares two pairs Triple, shares three pairs |
|
acidic
|
more hydrogen than hydroxide

|
acid
|
solute that dissociates in solutiona dn releases hydrogen ions
|
|
bases
|
a solute that removes hydrogen ions from a solution
