Potential
stored/postion
kinetic
motion
thermal
the kinetic energy of molecules
tempurature
measurment of thermal energy
heat
thermal energy transfer
Solid
def shape, def vol, organized @ molecular level, Molecules very close, little movement
Liquid
Def vol, no def shape, not organized, molecules are close, moderate shape
Gas
no def vol or shape, not organized, molecules are far apart, lots of movement
Vaporization
amount of heat to completely vaporize liquid after boiling
Heat of fusion
amount of heat to completely melt solids after melting point
Chemical Changes
chemical bonds are broken or formed, changes chemical makeup
Solution
homogenous mix tiny particles
solvent
substance in which something is dissolved
solute
thing dissolved in solvent
aqueous solution
a solution in which water acts as solvent
special properties of water
1.polar
2.cohesive
3.high surface tension
4.high heat capacity
5.high heat of vaporization
6.good solvent
7.ice floats
molarity=(M)
mol/L
Acid
Provide hydrogen ions in water. strong release ions easily, weak is opposite
Base
can accept hydrogen ions in water. strong holds ions tightly, weak opp
PH
Logarithmic measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions.
PH #
1-14.
less than 7 is acid
more than 7 is base
example PH 14 has 10^-14 hydrogen ions
Buffer
Combo of substances that prevent/resist a drastic change in PH. Roughly equal mix of weak acid and its conjugate base
