100

Dividing mass by volume tells you an object's what?

Density

100

Nitrogen

Explain why 
Element


It's on the periodic table, so it must be an element, and elements are pure mixtures.

(Also, Nitrogen will possess the same properties no matter where you observe it)

100

A clump of calcium has a mass of 7.75 g and a volume of 5 cm3. 

What is the density of calcium in g/cm3?

1.55 g/cm3

100

Baking Soda Volcano 

Chemical Reaction


Gas is produced 

Heat is produced 

100

Which of the following can be observed without changing the chemical makeup of a substance?

a.) hardness

b.) flammability 

c.) reactivity with oxygen

d.) toxicity

a.) hardness

200

If you can see all the different parts of a particular substance are not evenly mixed, you have one of these...

Heterogeneous Mixture 

200

Dirt


Explain why


Heterogeneous Mixture


No scoop of dirt will ever be the same, meaning dirt will have different properties depending on where you look at it.
200

Well BP done did it again...A LARGE GASOLINE SPILL IS SEEPING INTO THE OCEAN!!!


The company executives have determined that have lost 25,000 g of gasoline. Gasoline has a density of 0.73 g/mL. How many mL of gasoline would be polluting the ocean? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

34,247 mL

200

Simply biting a potato chip

Physical Change

All you did was change the shape of the chip.
200

What are 4 signs that a chemical change has occurred?

- Produce heat or light 

- Change in color 

-Strong odor

-Precipitate

- Produce a gas 

300

This solid forms from a chemical reaction where two liquids are mixed together

Precipitate

300

Disilicon Pentoxide

Compound


Two different element names can be picked out in this compound (nitrogen and oxygen), so these elements must be bonded together to create a compound.

300

A block of aluminum has a density of 5.4 g/cm3, a length of 5 cm, a width of 3 cm, and a height of 1 cm. What is the mass of the aluminum block in grams?


Your answer should be a whole number

81 g

300

Baking a cake in the oven 

Chemical Change 


Change of color 

Strong odor produced 

300

A little nugget of sodium (d=0.971 g/cm3) is added to this display. With the following densities, predict where the nugget of sodium would float at in the cylinder.

Vegetable Oil= 0.92 g/mL

Corn Syrup= 1.4 g/mL

Milk= 1.033 g/mL

Dish Soap= 1.030 g/mL


It'd float towards the bottom of the vegetable oil and above the water

400

A type of substance where microscopic solids are dispersed in a fluid while maintaining their properties.

Colloid

400

Glue


Explain why

Homogeneous Mixture (colloid)


All of the different polymers/compounds in glue are spread out in water but retain their properties to produce a sticky texture 

400

A phlebotomist draws 20 mL of blood from a blood donor. The density of blood is 0.00106 kg/mL. How many grams of blood did the blood donor donate? Round your answer to the tenths place.

21.2 g

400

Condensation 

Explain why 

Physical Change


No heat or light produce, no change in color, or no precipitate. Water simply turns from a gas into a liquid.

400
At the molecular level, what is happening to elements and compounds during chemical changes?

Bonds are breaking and new types of bonds are forming to create new substances.

500

The process of separating two liquid by their boiling points

Distillation

500

Leaves on a tree 


Explain why 

Heterogeneous Mixtures


Different leaves may have different amounts of nutrients such as sugars and water.

500

What is the mass in kg of a 5-gallon jug of water?

18.9 kg

500

Electrolysis

Chemical Change

You can see the hydrogen and oxygen atoms leaving from the water, meaning a new substance has been created. This process is not easily reversed.
500

Describe the basic differences between a pure substance and a mixture.

Pure substances are chemically bonded together and have the same properties no matter where they are found. Mixtures involved materials occupying the same space in a container, but they are not bonded together. Thus, the ratio of substances can change from mixture to mixture and create different properties.
