Properties of a nucleus
Contains protons and neutrons
Explain why electrons shells are filled from the inside-out
- they like to start in the path of least resistance
- start with lowest energy levels to highest
Precipitations reactions
Occurs when 2 aqueous solutions react to form a solid precipitate
Ionic bonding
The electrostatic attraction between a negatively charged anion and a positively charged cation
Dissociation
the process of when atoms break up from a compound
Solute
dissolved substance in a solution
Solvent
the substance that dissolves other substances
Solubility
a measure of how easily a substance dissolves in a solvent
Concentration
a measure of how much solute is dissolved in a given volume of solution can be described qualitatively & quantitatively
Dilute
a small amount of solute dissolved in a given volume of solution
Concentrated
a large amount of solute dissolved in a given volume of solution
Precipitate
A solid produced from the reaction between two soluble ionic compounds.
Acid
A substance that produces H+ ions in solution
Base
A substance that produces OH- ions in solution
Neutralisation
A reaction between an acid and a base
Acid + Base Reaction
Acid + Base -> water + salt
Acid + Metal Reaction
Acid + Metal -> hydrogen + salt
Acid + Carbonate Reaction
Acid + Carbonate -> water + carbon dioxide + salt
Lattice properties
- doesn’t conduct electricity > its a solid so no mobile charged particles
- brittle > doesn’t withstand distortion to lattice
Solution
Mixture in which the solute is uniformly distributed through the solvent
Dissolving process
Dissolve = lattice seperate = ions mix with water molecules and move through solution
Acids Properties
- sour
- ph < 7
- litmus paper red
- corrosive
- colourless
- conducts electricity
Bases properties
- bitter
- ph > 7
- turn litmus paper blue
- slimy feel
- caustic (like corrosive)
- conducts electricity
Strong acids
100% ionisation
