Question | Answer |
---|---|
Why do we use the SI system in science? | 1.only use one major unit 2. uses only prefixes based on powers of 10 (no negative values) |
What are physical properties? | non-chemical characteristic of a substance (shape, color, density, luster/shininess, hardness, brittleness, malleability, ductility, tensile/compressive/sheer strength, elasticity, electrical & thermal conductivity, MP, BP) |
What is the relationship between volume and pressure of a gas? | inverse proportion (as pressure increases, volume decreases) |
What is the relationship between volume and temperature of a gas? | directly proportional (as temp increases, volume increases) |
What is the density equation and how to use it | D=m/V ***know how to use, look back on examples*** |
What is evaporation? | phase transition that occurs between the liquid phase and the gas phase, while the temperature of the liquid is below the boiling point. |
What is sublimation? | phase transition in which a substance transitions from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid phase |
What are chemical properties? | properties that describes the chemical reactions a substance will or will not engage in (ability to combust, the ability to explode, the ability to oxidize, chemical stability, and toxicity |

What is plasma? | ionized gas. Since plasmas are made of ions, they conduct electricity |
Pressure is caused by..... | molecular collisions |
How does fluid flow? What will it flow towards? | a difference in pressure must be present. will flow toward lower pressure |
