What is a chemical change?
A change that produces one or more new substances with new chemical properties.
|
What is a mixture?
A combination of substances in which no reaction takes place.
|
What is motion?
A change in position.
|
What is the formula for calculating work?
Force x Distance
|
What is Newton's second law of motion?
The amount of force needed to produce a given change in the motion of an object depends on the mass of the object. The larger the mass, the more force is needed to give it a certain acceleration.
|
What is an example of a physical change?
Painting a wall, boiling water, or shredding cheese.
|
What is a chemical reaction?
A chemical change in which elements are combined or rearranged.
|
What is speed?
The rate at which the position of an object changes.
|
What is the joule?
The metric unit of measurement for calculating work.
|
What is a base?
A compound that contains the hydroxyl (OH) radical.
|
What is an indicator?
This chemical or paper tells whether a substance is an acid or a base.
|
What is a reactant?
A substance that is altered or changed in a chemical reaction.
|
What is velocity?
The speed and direction in which an object is moving.
|
What is work?
The amount of work a person does in a given period of time.
|
What is a chemical equation?
A statement that uses symbols, formulas, and numbers to stand for a chemical reaction.
|
What are energy levels in an atom?
Leveled spaces in which electrons move around the nucleus of an atom.
|
What is a synthesis reaction?
A reaction in which elements combine to form a compound.
|
What is Newton's first law of motion?
If no force acts on an object at rest, it will remain at rest. If an object is moving, it will continue moving at the same speed and direction if no force acts on it.
|
What is the formula for calculating power?
Work/Time (Work divided by time)
|
What is force?
A push or a pull.
|
What is an acid?
Tastes sour, has a pH less than 7, contains hydrogen, and turns litmus from blue to red.
|
What is a double-replacement reaction?
A reaction in which the elements in two compounds are exchanged.
|
What is Newton's third law of motion?
If an object exerts a force on a second object, the second object will always exert a force on the first object. Sometimes this idea is stated as "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."
|
What is the watt?
The unit of measurement for power.
|
What is energy?
The ability to do work.
