100
A chemical process that occurs when atoms or groups of atoms lose electrons.
What is Oxidation?
100
Conditions where an ideal gas is most likely to deviate from the ideal gas law and behave like a real gas.
What are low temperatures and high pressures?
100
Equation or Law that describes the relationship between the attenuation of light through a substance and the properties of that substance.
Beer's Law, 
(How is resonance energy transfer related to the absorptivity)
100
The amount of energy that is transferred from one system to its surroundings because of a temperature difference.
What is heat?
100
Energy due to motion. 1/2 mv^2
Energy that is stored and can be released as work or heat.
What is kinetic energy?
What is potential energy?
200
A chemical process that occurs when atoms or groups of atoms gain electrons.
What is reduction?
200
The force of all the gas particle/wall collisions divided by the area of the wall.
What is pressure?
(What units can be used for this)
200
The reason a gas is considered a greenhouse gas.
What is "it absorbs infrared radiation from the Sun in the form of heat"?
(What is symmetry breaking and how is it involved)
200
The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of the substance by 1 degree C.
What is specific heat?
200
A specific, well-defined portion of matter that is being studied, where all the chemical reactions and changes occurring within that portion are considered, separate from its surrounding environment.
What is a system?
300
A substance that gains electrons and is reduced in the reaction.
What is an oxidizing agent?
300
The pressure exerted by a (specified) component in a mixture of gases
What is partial pressure?
300
The role of density of water vapor in hurricane strengthening.
When water vapor condenses into liquid water, it releases a significant amount of latent heat, which warms the surrounding air, causing it to rise and creating a low-pressure system at the surface, thus fueling the hurricane's intensification
300
The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of an object by 1 degree C.
What is heat capacity?
300
The capacity to do work.
What is Energy?
400
A substance that loses electrons and is oxidized in a chemical reaction
What is a reducing agent?
400
The mass of an object compared to the volume of space it occupies.
What is density?
400
The thermal degradation of organic waste in an inert environment under high heat conditions.
What is pyrolysis?
(How does it work in large forest fires)
400
A chemical reaction that absorbs heat.
The sign of the change in enthalpy(ΔH) for this type of reaction.
What is Endothermic?
What is positive?
400
The energy required to move an object against a force.
What is work?
500
Identify which species is oxidized and which species is reduced in the following equation:
2 Na(s) + Cl(g) --> 2NaCl(s)
Na is oxidized (goes from 0 to +2)
Cl is reduced (goes from 0 to -2)
500
The conditionthat must be stated in order for this equation to be used.
P1V1=P2V2
What is constant temperature?
500
The method used to determine the temperature of the atmosphere 100,000s of years ago and the science of why it works.
What is the ratio of heavy to light oxygen isotopes in different layers of ice cores from glaciers?
500
A chemical reaction that releases heat.
The sign of the change in enthalpy(ΔH) for this type of reaction.
What is Exothermic?
What is negative?
500
Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be converted from one form to another. (include equation in answer)
What is the First Law of Thermodynamics?
ΔU = Q - W
