Element
Thermochemistry-
Study of transfers of energy as heat occurring during chemical and physical changes
Temperature (T)
Average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample; as it increases, so does the temp.
Heat (q)
Energy transferred between samples because of their difference in temp.; measured in Joules (J) with calorimeters
(High heat->low heat)
Specific heat
The amount of energy transferred during a temp.
Ionic compounds
First element & second element +IDE
Or gang
Covalent compounds
Prefix first element & prefix second element +IDE
Triple point
The temperature & pressure conditions at which the solid, liquid, & gas of a substance coexist
Critical pressure
The lowest temperature in which a substance can exist as a liquid
Standard pressure:
1.0 ATM 760 mmHg 760 Torr 101.3 Kpa 30.00 in 30'C 273'K
Organic compound
Study of compounds containing carbon except CO2
Inorganic
Study of compounds that aren’t organic
Physical chemistry
Study of changes of matter and their energy
Analytical chemistry
Study of composition of materials
Biochemistry
Study of substances & processes in living things
Theoretical chemistry
Use of math and computers to understand chemical behaviors and design new compounds
Matter
Anything that has mass and volume
Atom
Smallest unit of an element that still holds the properties of that element
Element
Pure substance made of only one type of atom
Compound
Stubstance made of 2 or more different types of atoms that are chemically bonded
Molecule
Type of compound in which bonds are covalent bonds made of 2 of the same elements
Solid
Definite shape and volume
Atoms are packed together
Strong attractive forces between atoms
Only vibrate in place
