Q

2nd Law of Thermodynamics

A

when converting from one form to another there is always a loss of useful energy; entropy a measure of the amount of energy which is unavailable to do work

Q

How does the efficiency of energy conversion vary in reactions involving changing electricity into light?

17
Q

What are the byproducts of industrial energy conversion?

18
Q

Members of the halogen family

A

fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine

19
Q

What are halogens

A

reactive nonmetallic elements that form strong acidic compounds with hydrogen, thus producing simple salts

20
Q

Members of the noble gas family

A

helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon

21
Q

What part(s) of the atom interact with other atoms in a typical molecular reaction?

22
Q

A hypothesis can eventually become a theory only if it can…

A

be proven true

23
Q

What are the orderly steps of the Scientific Method?

A
  1. observation
  2. question
  3. hypothesis
  4. design & experiment
  5. use of statistical tests to evaluate results’ significance
  6. acceptance or rejection
24
Q

Atomic theory

A

all matter is made up of tiny invisible particles (atoms)

25
Components of the atom
electrons and protons & neutrons in the nucleus
26
How is an ion formed
when an atom/molecule where the total number of electrons is not equal to the number of protons, thus giving it either a positive or negative charge
27
Example of an ion
H2O molecule, polar ---> unequal sharing of electrons thus molecule is slightly negative
28
Isotope
different form of an element where the number of neutrons are different in comparison to the common form of the element
29
Example of an isotope
C-14, 8 neutrons 6 protons
30
Mixture
variable combinations of atoms/molecules | *components don't react
31
Compound
molecule containing two or more different types of atoms | *components react and original properties are lost
32
How does water exist as hydronium
when a positively charged hydrogen ion bonds with an H2O molecule through a covalent bond
33
How does water exist as hydroxide
through the loss of a proton from an H2O molecule

35
Independent variable
variable that is manipulated
36
Dependent variable
variable that is measured
37
Control group
used as a comparison
