What is the universe composed of
Matter
Describe 3 properties of matter
1) Has mass 2) Occupies Space 3) Has Intertia
List the three states of matter
Solid, Liquid, Gas
Describe the properties of a liquid
Particles are mobile, but relatively close. Shape is like container. Definite volume. Flows. High or Low density. Not compressible. Expands slightly on heating.
Describe the properties of a solid
Close, tightly packed particles. Definite shape and volume. Does not flow. High or low density. Not compressible. Expands slightly on heating.
Describe the properties of a gas
Particles are independent, far apart. Shape and volume are like container. Flows. Low density. Compressible. Expands greatly on heating.
What is the transition from solid to liquid called? Give an example.
melting/fusion. Ex. melting of snow/ice
What is the transition of a solid to a gas called? Give an example
sublimation. Ex. sublimation of dry ice
What is the transition of a liquid to a solid called? Give an example.
freezing. Ex. Freezing of water (or a liquid metal)
What is the transition of a liquid to a gas called? Give an example
Vaporization. Ex. evaporation of water.
What is the transition of a gas to a liquid called? Give an example.
Condensation, Liquefaction. Ex. Formation of dew, liquefaction of carbon dioxide
What is the transition of a gas to a solid called? Give an example.
Condensation, deposition. Ex. Formation of frost and snow.
Can all substances change state by changing temperature
No. Some substances (like wood) undergo chemical rxns first.
Give 4 examples of physical changes
1) change of state 2) movement 3) breaking 4) dissolving - the molecules remain the same.
Describe a chemical change
New molecules produced.
Give examples of physical properties
color, taste, odor, solubility, luster, melting point, crystal structure, boiling point, hardness, elasticity, malleability, ductility, tensile strength, refractivity, coductivity, specific heat, density
What is the formula for density
D=Mass/Volume
How is the specific gravity calculated for liquids?
SG=Density of substance/Density of Water (Density of water = 1.00 at 3.98 C)
How is specific gravity calculated for gases?
SG=Density of substance/Density of air
Describe the difference between Mass and Weight
Mass is the amount of matter. Weight is the force pulling an object down d/t gravity. W=GH.
How can chemical properties be observed?
Chemical properties are observed when a substance undergoes a change in composition
Give examples of chemical properties
1) reactivity w/ another substance (air, acid, etc). 2) Flamibility
