Particle Theory of Matter
-All matter is made of particles called atoms
-Atoms are always in motion
-Different substances are made up of different combinations of atoms
-Atoms cannot be created or destroyed, only changed from one form to another
Mass
is the amount of matter in a object
Law of Conservation of Matter
Atoms/Matter cannot be created or destroyed only changed from one form to another
Density
amount of atoms/ given amount of volume
Viscosity
is a fluids internal resistance or friction that keeps it from flowing. As the temperature increases in a liquid, the viscosity decreases.
Melting
when a solid for example water changes it form due to the change in temperature.
Boiling
it is the process when a substance reaches it boiling point thus a liquid turns into a gas.
Solid
has a definate shape
Liquid
does not have a definite shape, it takes the shape of their container.
Condensation
gas to liquid
Solidification
gas to solid
Evaportaion
liquid to a gas
Matter
is anything that has mass and takes up space
Energy
a supply or source of electrical, mechanical, or other form of power (If something isn't matter, it is energy).
Physical change
A physical change is reversible,For example, the freezing of water would be a physical change because it can be reversed
Chemical change
A chemical change irreversible,whereas the burning of wood is a chemical change - you can't 'unburn' it
Pure substance
is a made up of one kind of matter and has a unique characteristic or properties (example baking soda).
Mixture
is made up of a combination of different substances and each substance keeps it properties (which may be hard to identify).
Homogeneous mixture
is a mixture in which the different substances cannot be seen; a mixture that looks like all one substance.
Heterogeneous mixture
another name for mechanical mixture
Mechanical mixture
you can see the different substances that make up the mixture (example soil and mixed vegetables).
Suspension
: is a cloudy like mixture in droplets or a tiny pieces of a substance are held within another substance and if left undisturbed, its parts will usually separate out. Muddy water is an example of suspension.
Colloid
is also a cloudy like mixture in droplets or tiny pieces so small they do not separate easily (example: homogenized milk, Cool Whip, mayonnaise).
Element
are any of the four primary substances, earth, air, fire, and water, that were formerly thought to be the materials from which all matter is constructed.
Compound
something made by combining two or more things.
Chromatography
is a test used to determine if they are pure substances or solutions. Also it is the technique to discovering chemical components.
Evaporation
liquid to a gas
Atom
All matter is made of atoms no matter if the matter is biotic, dead or abiotic.
Unsaturated solutions
a solution in which more solute can dissolve.
Saturated solution
a solution in which no more solute can dissolve at a given temperature.
Solubility
the maxium amount of solute you can add to a fixed volume of solvent at a given temperature (this happens at a stauration point).
Aqueous
means dissolved in water
Solute
the substance being dissolved
Solvent
the substance doing the dissolving (usually water).
Tyndall effect
is the scattering of light by a colloidal particles or particles in suspension. (Named after John Tyndall).
A fluid
a substance that continually flows under shear stress. All liquids and all gases are fluids under the right circumstances.
Archimedes Princple
The strength of the buoyant force acting upward on a partially or fully submerged object is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced by that object.
Buoyancy
a term that describes how liquids exert and equal and opposite force on gravity, that pushes upward.
Density
amount of atoms/ given amount of volume
Miscibility
how well a fluid can dissolve other substances
Compressibility
how much a fluid will compress
Compression
something that squishes and absorbs force
Pressure
is a meaures of the force acting perendicular to a unit area.
Weight
your gravitational pull towards the earth
