Q

Anti-Bumping Granules

A

To make the liquid boil smoothly - small bubbles of vapour form on the corners of the granules and reduce the risk of the liquid boiling over.

Q

Atom

A

Atoms are the tiny partials that make up everything.

All mater is made of them and they are very small. They cannot be broken down. Each element has its own type of atom.

Q

Electron shells

Study These Flashcards
A
  • Electrons orbit the nucleus at set distance and set energy levels.
25
Subatomic particles
Their existence was proven by the cathode ray experiment. They are particles smaller than the atom, found inside atoms.
26
Atomic Mass (Relative Atomic Mass)
The number of Protons and Neutrons. Mass of the nucleus. It is the mass of the nucleus that takes into account all the isotopes of the element.
27
Atomic Number
The number of Protons (as well as the number of electrons).
28
Isotopes
An atom of the same element but different number of neutrons.
29
Examples of isotopes
6 Protons = 3 Li Neutrons = 3 3 Electrons = 3 7 Protons = 3 Li Neutrons = 4 3 Electrons = 3 8 Protons = 3 Li Neutrons = 5 3 Electrons = 3
30
Electrons = Protons
Same number of Protons as Electrons as there must be a neutral charge.
31
Ion
Different/ more or less number of electrons than protons.
32
RAM
Relative Atomic Mass
33
A^r
The mean mass of an element that takes into account all the isotopes of that element.
34
Weighted
Takes into account the abundance of each isotope.
35
Abundance
Lots of something.
36
RAM formula
(Abundance of isotope 1 X mass of isotope) + (Abundance of isotope 2 X mass of isotope) ____________________________ 100
37
Nobel Gases
- Group 1 - They do not react with anything
38
What is the History of the Periodic Table?
- In the 1870s Mendeleev ordered the elements in a table. They were arranged in order of atomic mass (increasing from left to right). They were also grouped by their properties. And he also left space for undiscovered elements. - Mosely used x-ray analysis to show that elements properties are lined to atomic numbers.
39
Period
From left to right. The rows. They are arranged in order of the periodic number.
40
Groups
Vertical columns, in which element have the same properties.
41
Solid
Particles are tightly packed in a regular pattern. They keep their shape and vibrate in fixed positions.
42
Solid + liquid mixture
Particles absorb heat energy and break the attraction forces. Particles start to move.
43
Liquid
The particles are randomly arranged touching with space between. They take the shape of the container. They flow and particles move in any direction.
44
liquid + gas mixture
Gaps between particles increase, they are moving randomly. They move around each other and change direction where they when they change a wall or hit one another.
45
Gas
Particles are randomly arranged and not touching. It occupies all the space. They move freely in all directions except when they bash into each other or the walls.
46
Room temperature
20 degrees Celsius
47
What are the scientific instruments involved in filtration?
- Filter paper - Suspension - Solid residue - Filter funnel - Filtrate - Pestle and Mortar
48
What are the scientific instruments involved in crystalisation?
- Filtrate - Evaporating Basin - Boiling water - Gauze - Tripod
49
Distillation
It is a method of separating mixtures of liquids based on their boiling points. Extracting and purifying a solvent from a solution.
50
Fractional distilation
The separating of a mixture made of two or more substances. Each substance is collected separately depending on which has a lower boiling point and is therefor evapourating.
51
Paper chromatography
It is the separation method that separates coloured solutes from a solution. It is used to separate inks, paints or food colouring.
52
What are the scientific instruments involved in paper chromotography
- Filter paper - Pencil - For Solvent line - For Start line - Ruler - For Solvent line - For Start line - Coloured pens with ink, no pencil.
53
R^f value
Distance moved by the spot _____________________________ Distance moved by the solvent
54
Mobile Phase
This phase is made of the solvent and the solute (colours).
55
Stationary phase
This is the phase where made of the filter paper and a bowl.
56
What happens to inks that are more soluble?
They travel to the highest level that the ink reaches.
57
What happens to inks that are less soluble?
The don't rise as high as more soluble inks.
58
What happens if it doesn't say what decimal point to put a number with lots of numbers after the decimal (e.g. 2.486...)?
You put it to 2 decimal points
