25
what is a dominant allele
the stronger allele
26
what is a recessive allele
the alleles that aren't dominant
27
what is the formula triangle you use for magnification
actual image size, picture size, magnification
28
what is matter made up of
tiny particles called atoms
29
What are two rules about atoms
1. atoms cannot be created or destroyed 2. atoms in an element are all identical
30
what is an atom made up of
shells, protons, neutrons
31
what does the nucleus in an atom contain
protons and neutons
32
what charge does a proton have
positive (+1)
33
what charge does an electron have
negative (-1)
34
what charge does a neutron have
no charge (0)
35
what is the atomic mass number ( bottom )
total number of protons a neutrons
36
what is the atomic mass ( top )
tells us the number of protons in the atom
37
what are isotopes
different forms of the same element
38
what is electronic configuration
where the electrons are placed in the shells
39
how many electrons are in the first shell
2
40
how many electrons in the the rest of the shells
8
41
who invented the periodic table
Dimitri Mendeleev
42
how did Mendeleev organise the elements in the periodic table
in order of their relative atomic mass
43
how can you find out what group an element is in
the same number as the amount electrons are in the outer shell
44
how do you find out what period an element is in
the period number is the same as the amount of shells an atom has
45
what is a physical change
a change where only the physical form is changed, and no new substance is created
46
what is a chemical change
a change where a new substance is created
47
what is a mixture
something that contains elements that aren't chemically joined together
48
on a temperature - time graph, what does it mean when the line is horizontal
it shows that the temperature is consistent, which means the substance is changing state
49
how do you know if a substance is pure
all parts will melt at the same temperature
49
what happens when you heat up a substance
the particles gain energy, and break away from their fixed arrangement
50
what does soluble mean
is able to dissolve in water
51
what does insoluble mean
cannot be dissolved in water
52
what is a solvent
the liquid that something dissolves in
53
what is a solute
the thing that is being dissolved
54
what is a solution
a mixture of the solute and solvent
55
what is crystillation
where you heat a filtrate until crystals from
56
what does paper chromatography do
separates inks and dyes
57
what is the mobile phase in paper chromatography
the solvent
58
what is the stationary phase in paper chromatography
the paper
59
what is the Rf value
is a ratio used to describe the distance a component in a mixture travels in relation to the distance the solvent travels.
60
what is distillation
something used to separate liquids with different boiling points
60
how do you work out the rf value
distance travelled by spot divided by the distance travelled by solvent (answer must always be below 1)
61
what is fractional distillation
something used to separate two or more liquids
62
what is a vector quantity
a type of measurement that includes magnitude ( size ) and direction
63
what is a scalar quantity
a type of measurement that only includes magnitude
64
3 examples of a vector quantity
force, velocity, acceleration
65
what is velocity
speeding in a specific direction
66
3 examples of a scaler quantity
speed, distance, time
67
what is displacement
displacement is a straight line form A to B. for example, if you are driving on a road, it normally has bends in, but the displacement would just be a straight line there
68
how do you work out the gradient of a distance time graph
y axis divided by x axis
69
what are resultant forces
the resultant force is the stronger force, so for example if it was 12N to the right and 3N to the left, the resultant force would be 9N to the right
70
how do you work out the weight of something
weight = mass x gravitational field strength
