(66 cards)
Electrical energy
From movement of charged particles
Chemical energy
Form stored in the bonds of chemical substances
Mechanical energy
Directly involved in moving matter
Radiant energy
Energy that travels in waves
Planetary model
Simplified model of atomic structure
Isotopes
Same number of protons but differ in number of neutrons
Radioisotopes
Atoms decompose spontaneously into more stave forms
Molecule
A combination of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds
Compound
When two or more different kinds of atoms bind
Mixtures
Substances composed of two or more components physically intermixed
Solutions
Homogenous mixture of components that may be gases, liquids, solids.
Homogenous
Mixture has exactly the same composition or makeup throughout a sample taken from any part of the mixture has the same composition as a sample taken from any other part of the mixture
Solvent
The substance present in the greatest amount
Solutes
Substances present in smaller amounts
Molecule of a element
If two or more atoms of same element combine
Molecule of a compound
If two or more atoms of different elements combine
Chemical bond
An energy relationship between the electrons of the reacting atoms
Ionic bonds
Chemical bonds that form between two atoms that transfer one or more electrons from one atom to the other
Cation
Atom that lost a electron
Anion
Atom that gained an electron
Covalent bonds
Chemical bonds that form when two or more valence electrons are shared between atoms
Rule of eight
Atoms are stable at eight electrons in their outermost shell
Non polar covalent bonds
Electrons are shared evenly between te atoms
Polar covalent bonds
Electrons are shared unequally
