What does HHPS stand for?

Hazardous Household Products Symbols

How are physical changes different from chemical changes?

Physical change is a change in appearance where a chemical change is a change of the matter in the substance that forms a new substance with new properties.

100

Physical or Chemical change?

Fireworks exploding in the sky.

Chemical Change

What are the three common states of matter?

Solid, Liquid, and gas

100

Go from a liquid to a gas?

Vapourization (evaporation)

200

What does WHMIS stand for?

Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System

200

What is the formula used to calculte densidty?

Density = Mass divided by Volume

200

Pure substance or Mixture?

Water and milk

Pure substance and mixture (Protein, water, & lactose)

200

What is the relationship to volume of solids, liquids, and a gases?

Solid - fixed volume

Liquid - Fixed volume

Gas - Not fixed and it fills the shape of its container

200

Go from a liquid to a solid, and from a gas to a liquid?

Freezing and Condensation

300

What is the difference between HHPS and WHMIS systems?

HHPS is designed for households and WHMIS was designed for the workplace.

300

What is the Law of Conservation of Mass?

This is a scientific law that describes what happens in a chemical reaction to the reactants (the substances that react together).

It states that the mass of the products is always equal to the mass of the reactants.

Physical or Chemical Change?

Digesting food.

Chemical change

300

Go from a Gas to a solid, and from a solid to liquid.

Deposition and melting

400

What do these two symbols mean?

The triangle means that the container is dangerous, and the octagon means that the products within the container are dangerous.

400

Give two examples of qualitative physical properties and two examples of quantitative physical properties.

Qualitative: colour, flavour, odour, lustre, malleablity, texture, state of matter.

Quantitative: Boiling point, melting point, solubility, or viscosity.

400

Pure substance or Mixture?

Sea water, concrete, and liquid cake batter?

All three are mixtures

seawater - water and salt

concrete - lime, sand, and rocks

Liquid Cake batter - Sugar, milk, butter, eggs, flour, and baking powder.

400

What is the particle spacing for solid liquid and gas?

Particle spacing:

Solid - Very close together

Liquid - Close together but slip past each other.

Gas - Very far apart

400

Define difusion, which state of matter difuses the quickest, and what do you call it when matter goes from a solid to a gas? 

Difusion: The movement of one material through another.

Gas difuses the fastest into other gasses.

Sublimation

500

Which two safety symbols would you expect to find on a propane tank and explain what they mean.  Describe the shapes of the symbols and what the symbols would warn people from which hazrds? 

the triangle shape and the octagone shape.  They mean that the container is dangerous and that the contents are also dangerous.

The symbols are gas under pressure and flamable warning people not to puncture the tank or put it near sparks, flame or heat.

500

Define mass, volume, and density.

Mass: Quantity of matter inan object.

Volume: Amount of space a substance occupies.

Density: Quantity of mass in a certain volume of material.


500

Physical or Chemical change?

Chopping wood and roasting marshmallows on a fire?

Physical change and chemical change.

500

What is the Kinetic Molecular Theory, and what are the four components of the KMT?

KMT: explains what happens to the three states of matter s they undergo physical changes.  

1.All matter is made up of tiny particles.

2. The particles are always moving.

3. They have space between them.

4. Particles are attracted to one another.

500

What is the movement of particles in solids, liquids, and gasses?

Particle arrangements are:

Solid - Can only vibrate and not move around too much.

Liquid - Can slip past each other and are moving quickly.

Gas - Can move freely and quickly in all directions. 

600

What two symbols would be on a safety label for nitrous oxide?  Explain their meaning.

Gas cylendar symbol: Compressed gas is dangerous if the container is punctured.

Flame symbol: Contents is highly flamable, so keep the product away from sparks, heat, and open flames.

600

If you had a substance that weighed 4 grams per 3 cubic cm of substance, would your substance float or sink in water?

The density of the substance would be 1.33 g/cm3 so this substance would sink to the very bottom of my container of water, which has a density of 1.0 g/cm3.

600
Are the following physical or chemical properties and state the type of property.


Aluminum tent posles are maleable.

Potassium in fireworks is reactive.

Propane gas  in the BBQ is flamable.

Alumimun: Physical/Malleability

Potassium: Chemical/Reactive 

Propane: Chemical/Combustable

600

State the process and wheter or not kinetic energy was added or taken away.

Dew forms on grass in the early morning.

Liquid hand sanitizer evaporated from your hand.

A brithday candle drips onto the cake.

A chunk of dry ice forms fog.

Dew: Condensation - KE is being taken away

Sanitizer: Vapourization - KE is increasing

Candle: Melting - KE is being added

Dry Ice: CO2 is sublimating - KE is being added 

600

Explain how particles change state? What is happening to the matter that allows the particles to change state?

Matter changes state when kinetic energy is increased or decresased from the matter.  When kinetic energy is removed, the particles slow down.  When kinetic energy is increased the particles speed up and change from a solid to a liquid or a liquid to a gas.
