100

All matter can be classified as either _____ or _____.

All matter can be classified as either PURE SUBSTANCES or MIXTURE.

100

Physical properties of matter can be observed/measured without changing the _____ of the substance.

Physical properties of matter can be observed/measured without changing the COMPOSITION of the substance.

100

Chemical Properties can only be observed when the substances in the sample are changing into ____ substances.

Chemical Properties can only be observed when the substances in the sample are changing into NEW substances.

100

What is the main difference in what happens with a physical change vs a chemical change.

Chemical changes result in the formation of a new substance, physical changes do not change the composition of the substance.

100

Which state of matter has the strongest force of attraction among its particles?

Solids

200

Which classification is the simplest form of matter that cannot be broken down into simpler substances?

Elements

200

_____ measures the ability to cut or scratch other substances.

HARDNESS measures the ability to cut or scratch other substances.

200

True/False: Melting Point/Boiling Point are both examples of chemical properties since the matter will go through a phase change if these properties are observed.

FALSE: These are physical properties because when these properties are observed the substance's composition remains the same

Give me an example of a physical change and chemical change that would each result in a change in color.

Physical - heating metal until it glows red

            - mixing food color and water


Chemical - leaves changing color

              - iron rusting

200

Matter is defined as a solid liquid or gas based on its _____ and _____.

Matter is defined as a solid liquid or gas based on its

shape and volume.

300

Syrup

Honey

Lava

Tar

300

Flammability is the ability to burn in the presence of _______.

Flammability is the ability to burn in the presence of OXYGEN.

300

OTHER THAN A COLOR CHANGE, Give me 3 clues that a chemical change may have occurred.

- formation of a precipitate

- production of a gas

- production of heat or light

- change in odor

300

What does Kinetic Theory of Matter Say?

all particles of matter are in constant motion

400

Describe could I separate parts of a solution such as salt water? What is the process called?

Separate based on differences in boiling points. This is known as dustillation 

400

Density is equal to....

Density is equal to mass / volume

400

How likely a substance is to combine with other substances. 

Reactivity

400

Give an example of a physical change that is not reversible

answers will vary

400

Name all phase changes that are endothermic.

Melting

Vaporization

Sublimation

500

Explain how compounds and mixtures are different.

Compounds are chemically combined, Mixtures are physically combined.

Compounds have a fixed composition, the composition of mixtures can vary.

500

How can density be used to determine if an object will float or sink when placed in a liquid?

If the object's density is greater than the density of the liquid it will sink;

If the object's density is lesser than the density of the liquid it will float;

500

Which of the following properties are chemical properties? (list all that apply)

malleability

reactivity

color

conductivity

toxicity

reactivity

toxicity

Identify each example as a physical or chemical change:

1) A candle melting

2) chopping wood

3) Fire burning

4) dissolving salt in water

5) mixing baking soda and vinegar to make CO2

Identify each example as a physical or chemical change:

1) A candle melting - physical change

2) chopping wood - physical change

3) Fire burning - chemical change

4) dissolving salt in water - physical change

5) mixing baking soda and vinegar to make CO2 -- chemical change

500

What is the difference between evaporation and boiling?

Evaporation occurs below boiling point only on the surface of the liquid.

boiling occurs throughout liquid
