Frage Antworten
Matter physical substance in general
Electron -1/1840 mass of a proton -Negatively charged -Outside of Nucleus
Atom -Smallest unit of matter -Made of subatomic particles: Protons, Neutrons, Electrons
Proton -Postiviely charged -Located in Nucleus
Neutron -Carry no charge (NEUtral) -Located in nucleus -Bound together with protons
Element -Chemical substance that consists of one kind of atom -Over 100 known elements -About 2 Dozen in living organisms
Isotope -Same number of protons/electrons, different number of neutrons -ID'd by their mass number (e.g. Carbon 12)
Compound Combination of two or more elements Shown in shorthand of chemical formula (e.g. NaCl or H2O)
Ion -Positively/Negatively charged atoms -Occur in compounds when two atoms combine and form a compound.
Molecule -Smallest unit of most compunds -Can be made of same elements (Oxygen) or different elements (Water)
Van Der Waals Forces -Attraction and repulsions between atoms, molecules, and surfaces, as well as other intermolecular forces. -Weaker than ionic bonds
Hydrogen Bond -Attraction between a hydrogen atom with a partial positive charge and another atom with a partial negative charge -Water can form multiple hydrogen bonds, giving it many special properties, like expanding when frozen and dissolving other substances (salt).
Cohesion -An attraction between molecules of the same substance. -Water is extremely cohesive -Cohesion also creates surface tension (bugs can walk on surface of water, beads of water on a leaf)
Adhesion -Attraction between molecules of different substances (Water and Salt)
Solution -Made of of solvent (the element that dissolves) and solute (the substance that is dissolved) -Water is the greatest solvent on earth
pH Scale -Concentration of H+ ions in the solution -Ranges between 0 and 14 -Pure water: pH of 7 -Lower pH = more acid (Lemon juice, stomach acid) -Higher pH = more base (soap, bleach)
Polar Molecules -A molecule with a partial positive or partial negative charge -Distribution of electrons is not even -Elements in a polar molecule do not share electrons equally
Nonpolar Molecules -Elements in the molecule share electrons evenly
Concentration -The amount of a substance per defined space. -Ratio of solute in a solution to either solvent or total solution.
Acid -Any compound that has H+ ions in solution. -pH values below 7 -Strong acid = pH of 1 to 3
Base -Compound that produces OH- ions in a solution -Lower H+ ions than pure water (pH below 7) -Soap, Bleach, Ammonia
Polar Bonds -Covalent bond between two atoms where the electrons forming the bond are unequally distributed. -Seen in polar molecules
Polarity -the distribution of electrical charge over the atoms joined by the bond. -Atoms in this bond have a slight neg/pos charge.
