M/v

100

Matter with a composition that is always the same.

Substance

200

The amount of particles an object has

Mass

200

A characteristic of matter that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of matter

Physical Property

200

What is the difference between the three states of matter

Solid: definite shape and volume.

Liquid: definite volume but not shape

Gas: Neither definite volume or shape.

200

What is the difference between qualitative and quantitative properties.

Qualitative: describes a quality you can see: color

Quantitative: describes a property that you measure: Density

200

What is the conservation of mass

That the mass before the chemical reaction equals the mass after the chemical reaction.

300

Energy due to motion

Kinetic Energy

300

The characteristic of matter that can be observed as it changes to a different type of matter.

Chemical Property

300

What are the properties of metals vs nonmetals

nonmetals: shatter, do not conduct electricity, dull

Metals: flatten, conduct electricity, shiny.

300

What is the difference between exothermic and endothermic reactions.

Exothermic has energy being released to the environment.

Endothermic has energy being absorbed into the substance.

300

What is the ratio and ratio compound model for the following element percentage of atoms: 

80% Hydrogen 20% Carbon

4:1

4 hydrogen and 1 carbon

400

The starting substance of a chemical reaction.

Products

400

What are the 4 changes of states and explain each

Freezing: liquid to solid

Melting: Solid to liquid

Condensation: Gas to liquid

Vaporization: Liquid to Gas

400

What happens to the mass and the atoms before and after a chemical reaction

The mass is equal before and after. The atoms are the same but have rearranged themselves.

400

What is the difference between elements and compunds

compunds are 2 or more different types of atoms bonded together.

Elements are1 type of atom.

500

The increase in a materials volume  when the temperature is increased.

Thermal expansion

500

The decrease in a materials volume when the temperature is decreased.

Thermal Contraction

500

How does pressure relate to temperature, volume and number of particles.

When pressure goes up temperature goes up

When Volume goes up pressure goes down

When particles goes uo pressure goes up

500

What is the difference between mass and weight

weight can change because of location

Mass is always the same.

500

What determines a substances thermal energy
