What is the definition of SUBSCRIPT? | A number written below and to the right of a chemical symbol that shows the number of a specific type of atom present. |
What is the definition of CRYSTAL? | A solid material whose atoms, molecules, or ions are arranged in an ordered pattern. |
What is the definition of PURE SUBSTANCE? | A single substance, either an element or a compound, with definite composition and properties. |
What is the definition of MOLECULE? | The simplest unit of a chemical compound that can exist, formed when two or more atoms join together chemically. |
What is the definition of SOLID? | A state of matter that has a definite shape and a definite volume. |
What is the definition of COMPOUND? | A new substance with unique chemical and physical properties formed when two or more elements are chemically bonded during a chemical reaction |
What is the definition of MATTER? | Anything that has volume and mass. |
What are the 3 States of Matter? | Solid, Liquid, & Gas. |
Which State of Matter has their atoms closest together? | Solid. |
Which State of Matter has their atoms widely scattered? | Gas. |
Is hot air more dense or cold? | Cold air. |
What is matter made up of? | Molecules in any state. |
What is molecules made up of? | Atoms. |
(TRUE/FALSE) You can see molecules and atoms easily. | False. |
(TRUE/FALSE) You cannot change the State of Matter by adding or removing Thermal Energy. | False. |
How many oxygen atoms are in one molecule of water? | 1. |
Which State of Matter has a specific shape and volume? | Solid. |
Which State of Matter has definite volume, but no definite shape? | Liquid. |
Which State of Matter has no definite shape or volume. | Gas. |
How do you increase the kinetic energy of molecules so they change state from solid to liquid or liquid to gas? | Add heat. |
What is the melting point of water? | 0 degrees Celsius. |
What molecular change is happening when ice melts? | The molecules start vibrating and the space between them increases until they turn into liquid. |
What is the boiling point of water? | 100 degrees Celsius. |
What molecular change is happening when water boils? | The molecules in water vibrate faster until the space between them increases so much that they become a gas. |
What happens when you remove heat from molecules in a substance? | The kinetic energy goes down and the molecules get closer together eventually causing condensation or freezing. |
At what temperature does liquid water freeze into ice? | 0 degrees Celsius |
What is special about liquid water when it freezes? | It expands. Other liquids get smaller. |
