100

The variable that is tested in an experiment.

What is an Independent Variable?

100

A substance made of only one type of particle.

What is a pure substance?

100

The form of a substance that is dependent on temperature.

What is States of Matter/Solid liquid or gas?

100

Energy of something that is currently moving or acting

What is Kinetic Energy?

100

Energy that is stored and ready to be used, but is inactive.

What is potential energy?

200

The first step of the Scientific Method.

What are Observations?

200

A substance that contain only one type of atom.

What is an Element?

200

A mixture with small undissolved particles that don't settle out.

What is a Colloid?

200
The result of constant collision between billions of gas particles within an object or atmosphere.

What is Gas Pressure?

200
The point in a pendulum (or a swing) where there is the least potential energy and the most kinetic.

What is Maximum Kinetic Energy?

300

The variable the is often the result of other variables, it is what is being tested.

What is a Dependent Variable?

300

Something that contains two or more substances but have not reacted with each other.

What is a Mixture?

300

Type of properties that can be either independent/dependent of the amount of the substance.

What are Intensive and Extensive properties?

300

A device we use is a lab to measure pressure.

What is a Manometer?

300

An empty space with no particles and no pressure.

What is a Vacuum?

400

A tested variable used under a circumstance in which the outcome would seem "normal" or "untested", in order to see the effects of the experimental variables.

What is the Control Group?

400

In order to properly display and write compounds, we draw compounds based on the elements in the compound.

What is a Formula?

400

A process use to separate a mixture of liquids with different boiling points.

What is Fractional Distillation?

400

The speed of a molecule possessing average kinetic energy.

What is the Root-Means-Square Speed?

400

The idea that is based around that all matter is made of particles in constant motion.

What is the Kinetic Theory of Gases?

500

(HINT: THIS QUESTION IS ANSWERED WITH A RESPONSE, NOT A QUESTION) What are the key differences between a Scientific Law and a Scientific Theory?

Scientific Laws describe WHAT will happen under certain criteria, while a Scientific Theory tries to explain HOW it happens.

500
Matter identity comes from it's state, color, and luster

What can Matter be classified by?

500

There are 15 TOTAL of these.

(They involve classification of matter)

Name five.

What is Luster, Clarity, Texture, Hardness, Solubility, Viscosity, Malleability, Ductility, Density, Electrical Conductivity, Melting/Boiling Point, Crystallization, Magnetism, Combustibility, and Reactivity with Water?

500

Conversion factors for the multiple different measurements of gas pressure.

What is 1 atm = 760 mm Hg = 101.3 kPa = 760 Torr
