You add a teaspoon of sugar to a glass of water and stir until the sugar is no longer visible.

Name the solute, the solvent and the resulting mixture type.

Solute: Sugar

Solvent: Water

Mixture Type: Homogeneous mixture

200

What is a solution that can dissolve no more solute at the specific temperature?

Saturated solution

200

You add a teaspoon of sugar to a glass of water and stir until the sugar is no longer visible.

Name the solute, the solvent and the resulting mixture type. 

Solute: sugar

Solvent: water

Mixture type: Homogeneous solution

200

Which tool is essential for experiments where you are measuring the "rate of reaction"?

a stopclock / stopwatch

300

Describe the arrangement and movement of partivles in a solid.

Particles are closely packed in a regular lattice and vibrate about fixed positions.

300

You see "smoke" coming off a block of dry ice (solid CO2). It is turning directly into gas. Name this process.

Sublimation

300

You test a sample of water and find it boils at 102 degreesC. What does this tell you about the water?

It is impure.

300

The Rf Formula: A dye travels 4 cm up the paper while the colvent travels 10 cm. 

Calculate the Rf value. 

0,4 (4/10)

300

Two gasses, A (heavy molecules) and B (light molecules), are released. Which gas will diffuse to the other side of the room faster?

Gas B (lighter particles move/diffuse faster)

300

You have large crystals but you need a fine powder to make it dissolve faster. 

Name the two part tool used to crush them. 

Mortar and Pestle

400

Define the term "fluid" and name the two states of matter that fit this description. 

A substance that can flow; liquids and gases

400

Describe the difference between boiling and evaporation in terms of where the bubbles form.

Boiling happens throughout the liquid (bubbles form inside); evaporation only happens at the surface.

400

Name for a heterogeneous mixture containing large particles that will eventually settle if left undistrubed. 

A suspension

400

Name the device used in distillation to turn hot vapour back into a liquid. 

A condenser (Liebig condenser)

400

Place in order the three states of matter from fastest to slowest diffusion rate. 

Gas (fastest), Liquid, Solid (no diffusion)

400

What is the name of the metal three legged stand used to support a beaker over a Bunsen burner?

A tripod

500

What is the term for the empty space between particles, which is large in gases but small in solids?

Intermolecular space

500

What are the two processes during which the temperature remains constant while the state changes?


Condensation and freezing (solidification)

500

What is the name of a solid solution made of different metal elements, for example, a mixutre of copper and zinc?

An alloy

500

Name the solid that remains on the filter paper after the filtration process is complete.

Residue

500

If you put a drop of blue dye into a beaker of water at 50 C vs. 20 C, in which beaker will the water turn blue first? why? 

The 50 degree C beaker, High temperature means particles have more kinetic energy and move faster
