g. Homogenous mixture 

100

Define the term physical change and provide an example.

A physical change affects one or more physical properties of a substance without changing the identity of the substance.


200

A substance made up of atoms of two or more different elements joined by a chemical bond is called a(n) __________.

Please provide an example.

Compound

H2O, CO2, HCL

200

Combination of substances that are not chemically combined is called a _________.

Please provide an example (can be homogeneous or heterogeneous)

Mixture

Heterogenous: Beach sand

Homogenous: Vinegar

200

If 17.4 cm3 of a steel container has a mass of 8.29 g, what is the density of the steel container?

0.48 g/cm3

200

Characteristics that can be observed without changing the identity, are what type of properties? Physical or chemical?

Provide at least 4 examples.

Physical Properties

Shape, color, texture, melting point, boiling point, density

200

Define the term chemical change and provide an example.

A chemical change happens when one or more substances are changed into entirely new substances that have different properties.


300

__________ are represented by chemical formulas.

Compounds


300
Define the term homogenous mixture and provide at least 2 examples.
  • The components are evenly distributed.  The mixture is the same throughout.

  • EX: Vinegar, aluminum foil, ethanol (rubbing alcohol) 

300

A piece of titanium metal has a mass of 67.5 g and a volume of 15 cm3. What is the density of the titanium?

4.5 g/cm3
300

How a substance changes into a new substance by combining with other elements or breaking apart into new substances, is an example of what type of property? Physical or chemical?

Provide at least 2 examples.

Chemical Properties

Flammability 

Reactivity 


300

True or false:

Physical Changes change the identity of a substance.

False

Physical Changes do NOT change the identity of a substance

Ex. A gold nugget, molten gold, and gold rings are all made of gold atoms though they look physically different


400

How many atoms of Nitrogen are in the chemical formula below:


2 Nitrogen Atoms present in this chemical formula

400

Define the term heterogenous mixture and provide at least 2 examples.

The components are NOT evenly distributed.

EX: Soil, beach sand, bite of salad, bite of pepperoni pizza

400

A sample of a substance that has a mass of 85 g has a volume of 110 cm3. What is the density of the substance?

0.77 g/cm3

400

The capacity of a substance to combine with another substance, is what type of chemical property?

Please provide an example.

Reactivity 

When Iron reacts with Oxygen is creates rust


400

True or false, chemical changes can be undone by physical changes.

False

Chemical changes can NOT be undone by physical changes

Ex. You can’t unbake a piece of bread and get the ingredients 

500

The smallest unit of a substance that behaves like the substance is a(n)

a.  Element    c.  atom.    

b. molecule.                               d. Compound.

b. molecule 

Atoms can combine to make molecules and act as a unit

    Molecules- The smallest unit of a substance

500

Explain how mixtures are separated and broken down.

Mixtures can be separated by physical changes, but compounds must be broken down by chemical changes. 

Mixtures can be physically separated- Ex. using a centrifuge to separate blood samples.

500

The density of a piece of brass is 8.4 g/cm3. If the mass of the brass is 510 g, find the volume of the brass.

V = M/D

V= 510 g / 8.4 g/cm3

V= 60.71 cm3

500

Provide both a physical property of wood, and a chemical property of wood.

Physical: Brown/tan, has a grainy texture, can be a little sharp, has splinters

Chemical: Is flammable - *When burned, the wood now has new properties and is a new substance.

500

What type of change will form a brand new substance with all new properties? Please provide an example.

Chemical changes form new substances. 

Ex. Baking Bread 

Chemical Changes can be detected by change in odor or change in color.

Ex. When you burn food you smell the gases given off by a chemical change
