qualitive vs quantitative observations |
|
Definition
qualitive - descriptions, element type
quantitative - facts, measurements, temperature |
|
|
Term
-Chapter 2-
Distinguish between elements, compounds, mixtures |
|
Definition
compound - consist of 2 or more elements chemically combined
element - simplest form of matter
mixture - when each substance retains individual properties |
|
|
Term
physical properties vs chemical properties |
|
Definition
physical - what is looks and feels like
chemical -how it reacts |
|
|
Term
distillation vs electrolysis |
|
Definition
distillation - uses pure water and gas to seperate
In distillation, water undergoes a physical change because no new substances are formed
electrolysis - uses electricity to seperate into a gas
In electrolysis, it represents a chemical change because substances formed have entirely different properties than the compund |

atomic number vs mass number |
|
Definition
atomic number - equals the number of protons
gives you the order on the period table
mass number - equals number of protons + number of neutrons |
|
|
Term
atomic structure : protons, neutrons, and electrons |
|
Definition
protons - positively charged particales
neutrons - no charge; slightly massive than protons
electrons - far away and small |
|
|
Term
Atomic Structure theories and contributions:
Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford |
|
Definition
Dalton - made a model, Law of Constant Composition (the elemental composition of a pure substance never varies)
Thompson - ''plum pudding'' model (pudding = positive charge spread over sphere, plums = negative electron)
Rutherford - gold foil |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
atoms of the same element with different masses..which means that these atoms have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons or different masses |
|

Term
Alkali metals, Alkaline earth metals, Transition metals, Halogens, Noble gases |
|
Definition
Alkali metals - first vertical row, not including hydrogen
alkaline earth metals - 2nd vertical row
transition metals - 3-12 vertical rows
halogens - 2nd to last vertical row
noble gases - last vertical row |

molecular compound vs ionic compound |
|
Definition
molecular -
ionic - compound that forms between a metal and a nonmetal |

Term
-Chapter 4-
writing formulas
for
Ionic Compounds
Type 1 Metals
Type 2 Metals (Roman Numeral)
Binary
Molecular Compounds |
|
Definition
basically....
the first 2 rows and the other misc. elements have the charges listed on the back
the big middle area is the roman numerals, which tell you the charge
and the group on the right side of the big black line is the prefixes
mono, di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa, hepta, octa |

Significant Figures
Conversions
Density
|
|
Definition
Significant Figures -
examples
0.0025 - don't count
208 or 3.05 - always count
100. vs 100 - depends....one with . is
(the number of significant figures in the answer is the same as the lowest number of significant figures in the original problem)
Conversions - mili before kili
mili is 1000 times smaller
killi is 1000 times bigger
Density - ??? dont see it anywhere |

Mole, Avogradro's Number
Molar Mass
% Composition
Empirical vs Molecular
(very important stuff...but very familiar) |
|
Definition
Mole - 6.02 x 10^23
Molar Mass - best way to explain this is an example
CH4
1 C atom and 4 H atoms
1(12.01) + 4(1.01) = 16.05 amu
% Composition -
mass % element = mass element/mass compound x 100
kind of tricky...look back in packet
Empirical Formula vs Molecular -
this is the thing were you find the moles of the elements and then whichever is the smallest you divide them by
(sound familiar?)
thats empirical
Molecular is a bit different
it will give you the molar mass
and then you figure out the empirical formula, and then the mass of that formula
then divide them

-Chapter 7-
(smallest chapter ;)
Law of Conservation Mass
Reactants vs Products
Coefficients vs Subscripts
|
|
Definition
Law of Conservation Mass - mass is neither created or detroyed in chemical equations
(relates to why we bother balancing equations)
Reactants vs Products -
reactant is the first part of the chemical equation
product is the 2nd part
Coefficients vs Suscripts -
coefficient is the smallest integers in a balanced equation
subscript- ?? doesnt say anywhere |

(the big one)
Driving Forces for Chemical Reactions
Types of Chemical Reactions
Complete ionic reactions
Net Ionic Reactions
Spectator Ions
Strong Electrolytes
Properties of Acids and Bases
Salts
|
|
Definition
oh wow....ok
Driving Forces - formation of
a solid
water
electrons
a gas
Types of Chemical Reactions -
Synthesis - 2 elements together
Decomposition - breaking it down to 2 elements
Single Replacement - same as precipitation but there will be an odd element out
Double Displacement - broken down A LOT (look it up)
Combustion - add O2
Precipitation - switch the two beginings and ends
Acid-Base - water (l) and then what you did for precipitation
Redox - many of the ones above
Properties of Acids and Bases -
Acids are sour, conduct an electric current, turn blue litimus paper red, low pH ( I think of a lemon
Bases are bitter and feel slippery, they conduct an electric current, turn red litimus paper blue, high pH (think of laundry detergent)
Salts - occur when a strong acid and a strong base mix

Definition
Limiting Reactant - pretty self explainitory
Theoretical Yield- the amount supposed to be produced
actual- the amount actually produced
% yield - actual/theoretical
Exothermic vs Endothermic -
exo bonds are being formed and so heat is released
endo are being broken so heat is taken
