Describe, give examples of physical changes.
|
a change in form/appearance, without changing composition. ex: grinding, cutting, breaking, condensation, vaporization, solidification, fusion, mixtures.
|
|
Types of compounds that are electrolytes and non-electrolytes.
|
electrolytes: NaCl (bonds ionically)
non-electrolytes: sucrose C12H22O11 (bonds covalently) |
|
Factors that determine the amount of solute that dissolves.
|
if it's concentrated/dilute, solubility, molarity.
|
|
Describe the solution process.
|
*solute particles separate
*solvent particles separate solute & solvent particles get closer |
|
How does dissolving of electrolytes differ from dissolving of non-electrolytes?
|
electrolytes conduct electricity, & non-electrolytes don't.
|
|
Why do electrolytes conduct electricity?
|
electrolytes provide ions of both positive and negative charges in water.
|
|
List 3 ways to get a solid to dissolve faster, & explain why each method works.
|
stir - carries away already dissolved particles, carries fresh liquid to crystal.
heat - increased motion of particles away increases solubility. powder - solution occurs at the surface, & powdering increases surface area. |
|
When a solid is dissolved in a liquid, what happens to the boiling & melting points of the liquid?
|
boiling point rises, melting point lowers
|
|
List some applications of dissolving a solid in a liquid.
|
antifreeze - so the car won't freeze/overheat.
salt - for making streets have lower melting points. |
|
List some examples of emulsions.
|
oil and water, whole milk
|
|
List some examples of emulsifiers.
|
mayonnaise, kerosene, water
|
|
Describe a chemical change.
|
the process in which atoms are rearranged or exchanged between 2 compounds.
|
|
How can you identify a chemical change?
|
*change in color
*evolution of gas (bubbles) *formation of an insoluble solid *release/uptake of energy |
|
Outline the steps in writing a balanced chemical equation.
|
*identify all materials involved
*writer proper formulas for all materials *balance the equation |
|
What are the 4 types of chemical changes?
|
1)synthesis
2)decomposition 3)single-displacement 4)double-displacement |
