PICLEC: MODULE 1 Flashcards
The science that describes matterβits properties, the changes it undergoes, and the energy changes that accompany those processes
CHEMISTRY

- PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY
BRANCH OF CHEMISTRY
- Hydrocarbons and its derivatives
ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
BRANCH OF CHEMISTRY
- Inorganic compounds, metals, minerals
INORGANIC CHEMISTRY
BRANCH OF CHEMISTRY
- Detection and identification of substances present (qualitative analysis) or amount of each substance (quantitative analysis)
ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
BRANCH OF CHEMISTRY
- Processes in living organisms
BIOCHEMISTRY
BRANCH OF CHEMISTRY
- Behavior of matter
PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY
Anything that has mass and occupies space; is tangible
MATTER
Measure of the quantity of matter
MASS
Amount of space
VOLUME
The capacity to do work or to transfer heat
ENERGY
TYPES OF ENERGY:
- KINETIC ENERGY
- POTENTIAL ENERGY
TYPES OF ENERGY
- Energy in motion
KINETIC ENERGY
TYPES OF ENERGY
- Energy at rest
POTENTIAL ENERGY
ENERGY CHANGES:
- EXOTHERMIC
- ENDOTHERMIC
ENERGY CHANGES
- Release (heat)
EXOTHERMIC
ENERGY CHANGES
- Absorbs (heat)
ENDOTHERMIC
STATES OF MATTER
- SOLID
- LIQUID
- GAS
STATES OF MATTER
- Molecules packed close together orderly; Rigid
SOLID
STATES OF MATTER
- Molecules are close but randomly arranged; Flows and assumes shape of container
LIQUID
STATES OF MATTER
- Molecules are far apart; Fills any container
completely
GAS
CHANGES OF STATES
S - L = MELTING
L - S = FREEZING
L - G = BOILING
G - L = CONDENSATION
G - S = DEPOSITION
S - G = SUBLIMATION
Can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance.
e.g. color, hardness, melting point, boiling point
