35 Terms

1

Atoms

It is the basic building blocks of matter

New cards
2

Protons

Positively charged particles found in the nucleus

New cards
3

Electrons

Negatively charged particles found in orbitals around the nucleus

New cards
4

Neutron

Neutrally charged particles found in the nucleus

New cards
5

Atomic Number

Number of protons in an atom, which defines the element

New cards
6

Mass Number

total number of protons and neutrons in an atom

New cards
7

What is the formula for mass number of atoms?

Mass Number = Number of protons + Number of Neutrons

New cards
8

 Periodic Table

It organizes elements by increasing atomic number and groups elements with similar properties in columns

New cards
9

Element in Group 1 area also known as?

Alkali Metals

New cards
10

Elements in Group 7 are also known as?

Halogens

New cards
11

Periodic Law

It states that elements with similar properties occur at regular intervals when arranged by atomic number

New cards
12

Ionic Bonding

Form when electrons are transferred from one atom to another. This typically happens between metals and nonmetals.

New cards
13

Cation

It is when metal atom loses one or more electron forming positive ion

New cards
14

Anion

It is when nonmetal gains electrons forming negative ion

New cards
15

Covalent Bonding

It is formed when atoms share electrons, typically between nonmetals

New cards
16

Molecules

It is group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction

New cards
17

Metallic Bonding

It occurs between metal atoms, where electrons are shared in a "sea of electrons" that move freely between positive metal ions

New cards
18

Mole

a unit of measurement in chemistry, a small, often dark spot on the skin, a subterranean mammal, or a spy operating within an organization

New cards
19

What is Avogadro’s constant?

New cards
20

Molar Mass

It is a substance is the mass of one mole of its particles (atoms or molecules), typically expressed in grams per mole (g/mol)

New cards
21

What is the formula or Molar Mass?

 Molar Mass = Mass of Substance / Amount of Substance (mol)

New cards
22

Concentration

It is the amount of solute dissolved in a given volume of solution

New cards
23

What is the formula of concentration?

Concentration (mol/dm3) = Amount of Solute (mol)/Volume of Solution (dm3)

New cards
24

What is Acid-Base reaction?

It is when the Acid reacts to Base to produce water and salt, it is also known as neutralizaiton.

New cards
25

What is Oxidation?

It is when the atom losses electrons

New cards
26

What is Reduction?

It is when atom gains electrons

New cards
27

What is Redox Reaction?

Is occurs when the process of oxidation and reduction happened at the same time.

New cards
28

Exothermic reaction

It is when the reaction results in the release of energy usually in the form of heat

New cards
29

Endothermic reaction

It is when the reaction absorbs energy from the surrounding

New cards
30

What is activation energy?

It is the minimum energy required for a reaction to occur. It can be influenced by temperature and catalysts

New cards
31

What is the formula for the Arrhenius equation?

New cards
32

Hydrocarbons

Compounds made up of hydrogen and carbon atoms

New cards
33

Alkanes

Saturated hydrocarbons, e.g., methane (CH₄), ethane (C₂H₆)

New cards
34

Alkenes

Unsaturated hydrocarbons containing double bonds, e.g., ethene (Câ‚‚Hâ‚„)

New cards
35

Alkynes

Unsaturated hydrocarbons containing triple bonds, e.g., ethyne (Câ‚‚Hâ‚‚)
