-
extensive properties
- depend on the amount of matter that is present
- include volume mass and amount of energy in substance
-
intensive properties
- do not depend on the amount of matter present.
- melting point, boiling point, density, and ability to conduct electricity and heat.
-
physical property
- characteristic that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance.
- melting point, boiling point
-
physical change
- change in a substance that does not involve a change in the identity of the substance.
- grinding, cutting, melting, and boiling of material.
-
change of state
physical change of a substance from one state to another
-
solid
- matter that has definite volume and shape
- particles are packed together by strong attractive forces.
-
liquid
- matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape.
- particles are close together but can still mow around each other.
-
Gas
- matter that has neither definite volume or shape
- particles move rapidly and are very spaced out so they have less force
-
plasma
high temperature physical state of matter in which atoms lose most of their electrons, particles that make up atoms.
-
chemical property
substances ability to undergo chugs that transform it into different substances.
-
chemical change or reaction
change in which one or more substances are converted into different substances.
-
reactants
substances that react in a chemical change
-
products
substances that are formed by the chemical change
-
Law of Conservation of energy
energy cannot be created or destroyed
-
mixture
blend of two or more kinds of matter, each retains its own identity and properties.
-
homogeneous mixture
- uniform in composition
- Also known as soltion
-
heterogeneous
not uniform throughout
-
Basic Research
- is carried out for the sake of increasing knowledge
- study of properies
- how and why an action occurs
-
Applied Research
- generally carried out to solve a problem
- find a cure for cancer or disease
-
Technological Development
- typically involves the production and use of products that improve our quality of life.
- computers
- •catalytic converters in cars
- • biodegradable materials
-
Pure Substances
- same composition
- same characteristics property
-
groups or families
contain similar chemical properties
-
periods
chemical properties change regularly across
