chemistry Eoy year 9 Flashcards
Dalton’s atomic model says
Atoms are in undividable solid ball composed of only one type of atom
Isotopes are
Isotopes are atoms of an element, which have different numbers of neutrons, but the same number of protons and electrons 
How is the periodic table arranged
Horizontal periods arrange elements by atomic number in ascending order.
Vertical groups arrange elements by their similar properties.
Solid —> Gas
Sublimation
Gas —> Solid
Deposition
Describe the changes in arrangement, movement and forces between particles as they change state
As an object changesstate, the temperature doesn’t change because the thermal energy is being used to overcome the intermolecular forces of attraction between the particles 
What is a pure substance
A single element or compound not mixed with any other substance 
How is the temperature of a liquid affected when evaporation takes place? 
The temperature of the liquid falls, because the particles that escape takes some energy from the remaining particles 
What is the difference between fractional distillation and simple distillation
Simple is separating two liquids, fractional separates more than two liquids. 
What is chromatography? 
Separating two components of a mixture 
What is the difference between crystallisation and filtration? 
Crystallisation removes soluble solid from a liquid, whilst filtration removes insoluble solid from a liquid 
How does paper chromatography separate components of a mixture? 
As the solvent soaks up the paper, it carries the mixtures with it. Different components of the mixture will move at different rates
What’s the formula for RF value? 
Dist moved by coloured spot/Dist moved by solvent
What is sedimentation when purifying water? 
Small insoluble particles are allowed to separate out. Happens before filtration
What is filtration when purifying water? 
Sand and gravel beds remove insoluble solids
(happens before chlorination )
What are ions? 
Charge particles formed when atoms lose or gain electrons 
Metal atoms ____ electrons and form ____ ions.
Non-metal atoms ____ electrons and form ____ ions
Metal atoms lose electrons and form positive ions.
Non-metal atoms gain electrons and form negative ions
What is the attraction between electrons and nuclei called? 
electrostatic attraction
