New cards

D

A pure hypothetical substance, D, is found to change upon heating into two new pure substances: G and J. G

can be decomposed by chemical means and J cannot. From this we may conclude that:

(1) D is a compound, G and J are elements

(2) D, G, and J are all elements

(3) D, G, and J are all compounds

(4) D is a homogeneous mixture, G is a compound, J is an element

liquid

What is the physical state in which matter has a specific volume but does not have a specific shape?

3
New cards

Both homogenous and heterogeneous mixtures

For which of the following, can the composition vary?

(1) pure substance (2) element (3) homogeneous mixture (4) heterogeneous mixture (5) both homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures

4
New cards

Chemical changes are the result of the combination, separation, and rearrangement of atoms

Dalton's atomic theory is based on several assumptions, which are listed below. Which of these assumptions still

hold(s) true today? I. All atoms of the same element are identical. II. Atoms are indivisible and unchangeable.

III) Chemical changes are the result of the combination, separation, and rearrangement of atoms.

5
New cards

Thomson’s cathode ray tube experiment

The discovery of the electron as a negatively charged particle within the atom was made using which

experiment?

6
New cards

electron

Which subatomic particle contributes the least to the mass of the atom?

7
New cards

cation, losing 3

The element aluminum will form a ______ by _________ electrons.

8
New cards

Composition

refers to the simple components that make up the material

9
New cards

Structures

refers to both the composition and arrangement of those simpler substances

10
New cards

Mixtures

contain more than one substance — and the substances are not bound in a fixed ratio

11
New cards

Alloys

mixtures of metals

12
New cards

color, temperature, mass, volume, shape, hardness, flexibility, conductivity

Examples of physical properties

13
New cards

Exothermic

A physical or chemical change that releases heat energy to the surroundings.

14
New cards

Endothermic

A physical or chemical change that absorbs energy from the surroundings.

15
New cards

theory

A model that explains and makes predictions about natural phenomena is referred to as a/an:

16
New cards

theory

an idea that is supported by evidence, or a paradigm for describing the world around us; describes how or why something happens

17
New cards

law

A statement that describes observations that are true in widely varying circumstances. Scientific laws often describe mathematical relationships. However, they do not explain why something occurs; they only observe that it occurs.

18
New cards

How many feet in a yard?

19
New cards

decimeter

One liter is equal to one cubic _____

20
New cards

d=m/v

Density formula

21
New cards

centimeter

1 ml equals 1 cubic

22
New cards

Antoine Lavoisier

observed that when a chemical change takes place, the total mass before and after the reaction is the same. Based on this research, he formulated the law of conservation of mass

23
New cards

lanthanide series/rare earth metals

First row of the inner transition elements

24
New cards

Actinide series

Second row of the inner transitions elements

25
New cards

Alessandro Volta

built the first battery (more formally called an electrochemical cell) — a device capable of moving electrically charged particles by placing alternating plates of zinc and copper on either side of pieces of cardboard soaked in sulfuric acid

26
New cards

J. J. Thomson

Discovered the electron

27
New cards

Rutherford

Discovered that most of the atom is empty space

28
New cards

photon

A small increment or packet of electromagnetic energy (often visible light).

New cards

Radio, micro, infrared, red visible, blue visble, uv, x, gamma

electromagnetic spectrum from lowest frequency to highest

E=h*frequency

Energy of one photon using frequency

32
New cards

E=(h*c)/wavelength

Energy of one photon using wavelength

33
New cards

Line spectra

A pattern of light energies called blank; they are formed when gas-phase elements release energy. Each element has a characteristic one
