A
the science concerned with properties, composition, and behaviour of matter
- Essentially the study of matter
2
Q

the amount of matter contained in a thing
3

intensive
6

A
Extensive
7
Q
KEY WORDS for determining intensive properties
A
if the sentence says: per pound, per gram, etc = intensive property
8
Q

physical properties
11
Q
chemical properties
A
are properties that hold the ability to change the identity of the substance –> must cause a new substance to form. they cause a reaction.

properties that you can measure and observe without changing the substance itself. A lot of them describe the relation & interaction between matter and energy (ex, magnetic property)

21
Q
what is mechanical energy?
A
Kinetic Energy but for bigger objects like cars
22
Q
what is kinetic energy? (4)
A
- the energy or any form of energy that cannot be stored
- The greater the speed and mass, the greater the KE
- particles of matter posses a type of KE called mechanical energy due to their continuous motion
- independent atoms and molecules have 3 types of mechanical energy/types of motion: vibration(back &forward motion), rotation/spinning(movement about an axis), and translation(movement from place to place).
23
Q
Motion of Solid (6) from chart
A
- vibration motion
- packed in crystal formation, cant move past each other
- STRONG intermolecular attraction between particles
- incompressible
- fixed shape and volume
- weakest KE
24
Q
Motion of Liquid (6) from chart
A
- vibration & rotation motion
- STILL TOUCHING EACH OTHER, not organized
- MODERATE intermolecular attraction between particles
- incompressible
- fixed volume, take shape of container
- moderate KE
25
Does it take more energy to go from solid to liquid or liquid to gas?
liquid to gas: bcuz it takes more effort to go from rotating to translating, than vibrating to rotating --> u are acc pulling the moecules apart
26
motion of gas (6) from chart
--vibration, rotation, translation motion
- NOT TOUCHING EACH OTHER, not organized
- WEAK intermolecular attraction between particles
- COMPRESSABLE
- no fixed volume of shape
- strong KE
27
what 2 factors cause phase change?
pressure change & temperature change
28
plasma
gas-like state where electrons pop off gaseous atoms to create a mixture of free electrons & cations.
- requires very high temp and low pressure to exist. --> we would not see it occur naturally on earth. matter on surface of sun=plasma
29
Triple point
a point at a certain pressure and temp where all 3 states of matter can exist
30
Critical point
- its the end point of the water/gas line
- you have one phase--> combination of gas and liquid = supercritical fluid
- chemically, it is still the same substance you started off with
31
triple point of water+ice+steam
0.01degrees celcius & 0.8 atm (atm=atmospheric pressure)
32
supercritical fluid (SCF)
- a kind of liquidy gas or gassy liquid --> not to be confused with a mixture
- can diffuse through solids like gasses but also dissolve stuff like liquids would
33
critical point of water+steam
374 degrees celcius & 218 atm (atm=atmospheric pressure)
34
RMR: things travel from ______ pressure to ______ pressure
- high to low
- a perfect vacuum would have 0 atm
35
ambient &/or normal pressure is
1.0 atm
36
does temp depend on pressure or pressure on temp
temp depends on pressure
37
"normal" refers to STP which is what temp and pressure
1 atm & 0 degrees celcius
38
if it asks for "normal" boiling point or melting point assume
assume atm=1
39
STP vs SATP
STP= Standard Temp & Pressure:1 atm & 0 degrees celcius
SATP= Standard Ambient Temp & Pressure: 1atm & 25 degrees celcius
40
Endothermic process
The system absorbs/gains energy from surroundings --> Temp of system increases & temp of surroundings decreases
41
Exothermic process
The system releases/loses energy to the surroundings --> Temp of system decreases & temp of surroundings increases
- humans are constantly doing the exothermic process
42
Thermal energy
- KE+PE
- is the energy contained within a system that is responsible for temp
43
Heat
flow of thermal energy from high temp object to low temp object
44
heat of fusion
the amount of heat required to melt a specified amount of a certain solid substance
- no change in KE, temp stays same
--> denotated with the plateau line (see page 12)
45
Heat of vaporization
the amount of heat required to vaporize a specified amount of a certain liquid substance
- no change in KE, temp stays same
46
temperature
average thermal energy (speed) of the molecules.
47
During phase change, energy is used to
break or weaken the interactive forces between molecules to trigger a change in state (PE is affected)
--> all energy goes towards this and therefore KE stays constant= temp stays constant
48
when energy is added, the particles will do one of 2 things
- speed up --> temp increases (KE increases)
- get pulled apart --> phase change (PE increases)
--> never both at the same time
49
As height increase atm increases or decreases
decreases
50
the 2 ways energy is stored
- thermal (due to motion of particles)
- phase (due to attraction between particles)
51
attractions increase or decrease the energy state
- decreases
- one must add energy to a system to pull particles apart
52
3 ways energy is transferred/added to a system
- heating (Q) --> one we look at
- working (W)
- radiating (R)
53
the lower the energy the more _____ the object
stable ; therefore solids are the most stable

83
What is a mixture?
- Combination of 2 or more different substances in no fixed ratio and not bonded together --> just blended
- substances keep their own properties and can be physically separated
84
Homogenous mixture
- a mixture that looks the same throughout
85
Solution and its parts (4)
- a homogenous mixture in which the constituent chemical species (components) do not aggregate (clump together) to form particles greater than 1 nm (1x10^9m)
-solute: the minor component, the one being dissolved
- solvent: the major component of the mixture, what the solute was being disolved in
- solution is one phase, with solute evenly spread
86
alloys and examples
- mixture of 2 or more metals resulting in unique, desired properties
steel: iron + chromium + carbon
Bronze: copper+other metals:zinc or tin
brass: zinc+other metals
87
Heterogenous mixture (3)
mixture that doesn't appear same throughout --> one or more component visible
- can be uniformly or non-uniformly mixed
- at least some particles greater than 1000nm or (1um=micrometer)
88
Colloid (3)
- seems to fall under heterogenous
- like solution but solute particles 1nm-1000nm --> the closer to 1000nm= more behaviour like suspension, the closer to 1nm= behaviour like solution
- appears homogenous cuz particles not large enough to settle (do not aggregate)
- include gels, sols, emulsions --> can not be separated like suspension like filtering or centrifuging
89
Suspension (4)
- solute particles >1000nm or 1um
- has a dispersed phase and a continuous medium. --> Dispersed phase: solute, Dispersed medium: solvent
- sediment: the large particles that settle when left undisturbed
- ex, shake before use products
90
Tyndall effect is
is the scattering of light by a medium containing small suspended(dispersed) particles
91
Tyndall effect for solutions
- light not visible through solution as solute particles are too small to reflect and scatter light
92
Tyndall effect for colloids
- light are visible through colloid as solute particles reflect and consequently reflect light in all directions, including into your eyes
93
Tyndall effect for suspension
- light not visible through solution as solute particles settle, and solvent particles too small
- to see light, either lower light source to bottom where particles settle or stir the suspension to evenly disperse the solute particles
94
methods of mixture separation
- components of mixture can be separated by mechanical means: picking, sifting, shaking, spinning, pouring, skimming
- Transparency test: solution & colloid transparent to diff degrees
- Filtration test: solutions not filtrable, colloids mostly not filtrable but large particles can be filtered by ultra-filtration, suspension components can be separated by ordinary filtration
- centifugation: using centripetal orbit to cause large particles to settle. the liquid can be decanted (poured off)
