Physical and Chemical Change | SToichiometry | Chemists have solutions | It's a Gas | Some pretty basic and acidic chemicals |
---|---|---|---|---|
What is Physical Change
A change which does not alter the chemical composition of a substance
|
What is Hygroscopic
Readily absorbing moisture, even from the atmosphere
|
What is solute
The substance or substances dissolved into a solution
|
What is Boyle's Law
At a constant temperature, pressure and volume are inversely proportional to one another.
|
What is an acid
They taste sour
|
What is a Decomposition reaction
A reaction in which the only reactant is a compound, and the products are the elements from which the compound is made
|
What is Limiting reactant
The reaction that runs out first, limiting the amount of products made
|
What is a solvent
The substance into which solutes are dissolved
|
What is Charle's Law
At constant pressure, temperature and volume are directly proportional to one another.
|
What is a base
I turn red litmus paper blue
|
What is Single displacement reaction
A reaction in which one element or ion in a compound is replaced by a different element or ion
|
What is Experimental error
The difference between a quantitiy's measured value and its true value
|
What is solubility
The amount of solute that can be dissolved in a specific amount of solvent
|
What is extrapolation
Extending a trend in data to situations for which not measurements have been made
|
What is an acid
A chemical that donates a hydrogen
|
What is combustion reaction
The process by which a chemical reacts with oxygen to form one or more products as well as heat and usually light
|
What is an empirical formula
A formula that shows the simplest ratio of elements present in a compound
|
What is a saturated solution
A solution in which the maximum amount of solute is dissolved
|
What is the Kelvin temperature scale
In all gas equations you must use this scale
|
What is an amphoteric
Capabel fo reacting as either an acid or a base
|
What is Kinetic Theory of Matter
The molecules that make up a substance have space in between them,and they are in constant, random motion. The hotter the substance, the faster the motion
|
What is molecular formula
A formula that shows the actual number of each element in a compound
|
What is precipitate
A solid that emerges from a liquid solution
|
What is Avogadro's Law
Equal volumes of all gases at the same temp. and pressure have the same number of molecules
|
What is a Polyprotic acid
An acid that can donate two or more hydrogen ions
