*compounds and mixtures: made up of more than one type of atom* * *compounds: made up of two or more elements chemically bonded*
*mixtures: elements/compounds held together by physical bonds.*
34
New cards
What is chemical polarity in molecules?
* *electron cloud of atom gains abundance of electrons in particular area* * *brief negative charge on that end, and brief positive charge on opposing end*
35
New cards
What is a solute and solvent in a solution?
* *solute: dissolving solid* * *liquid in which solute dissolves is solvent.*
36
New cards
How does dissolving occur in polar and non polar solutes and solvent?
* *polar solutes only dissolve in polar solvents*
*non polar solutes only dissolve in non polar solvents.* * *stronger attraction between solute + solvent = more soluble* * *polar solute is more attracted to polar solvent as the positive and negative poles are attracted to each other*
*a polar solvent/solute has partial negative/positive charges, while a non polar solvent/solute is neutral throughout.*
*polar solvents have bonds between atoms with very different charges, while non-polar solvents have bonds between neutral atoms.*
37

38
New cards
Name an example of dissolving being a chemical change.
* *salt dissolving*
39
New cards
* What are the differences between physical and chemical change?
* *physical change: no new bonds are formed/broken*
*chemical change: new bonds are formed/broken* * *physical changes: easily reversed*
*chemical changes: not easily reversed.*
***Every chemical goes through varying chemical changes based on their different chemical identities.***
40
New cards
* What are some characteristics that indicate a chemical change has occurred?
* *Change in colour* * *Temperature change* * *Gas is given off* * *Light is produced* * *A new solid is formed (precipitation*
41
New cards
How do chemical changes relate to chemical reactions?
* *chemical change occurs as a result of chemical reaction* * *chemical reaction occurs → composition of chemicals change* * *chemical bonds can be broken or formed* * *result of a chemical reaction is a chemical change* * *new chemical substance forming occurs after chemical bonds are broken/formed.*
