what is a chemical reaction
it’s a change of what the atom is bonded too
what’s an element
a substance containing only one type of atom
what’s a compound
a substance containing 2 or more atoms chemically bonded
what’s a mixture
a substance containing 2 or more atoms that are not chemically bonded
can atoms be created and destroyed?
no
what’s filtration
the removal of large insoluble particles from a solvent
what’s evaporation
leaves behind crystals of dissolved substance is heated gently
what’s distillation
condensing the evaporated solvent and collecting it
what’s fractional distillation
separating liquids due to their different boiling points
what’s chromatography
causes substances to rise up paper due to capillary action
what’s the process of going from a solid to liquid
melting
what’s the process of going from a gas to liquid
condensing
what’s the process of going from a solid to gas
sublimation
is changing the state of a particle chemical or physical
physical
what are the traits of a solid
particles in a regular lattice arrangement and vibrate around fixed positions
cannot be compressed
what are the traits of a liquid
particles have no regular arrangement and are able to move past eachother
cannot be compressed
what are the traits of a gas
particles are far apart and move randomly at high speeds
can be compressed
why can gases move at high speeds
high kinetic energy
what did Thomson create
plum pudding model
what is the plum pudding model
a ball of positive charge with negative balls dotted around
what did Rutherford create
‘alpha particle model’
the theory that the nucleus was small and positively charged
what did Bohr think
electrons exist in shells
what did Chadwick think
nucleus has neutrons as well as protons
what’s the atomic number
number of protons in the nucleus
